OUT 35--OUT ON THE TOWN

HEY OUTSTAGRS!

ITS THAT TIME!!


TIME TO GET TOWNED!!!




As we continue to gather ourselves on this Coronavirus pandemic  and public events  and entertainment and leisure establishments closing,  people are managing and trying to adjust  to quarantining themselves at home people are trying to find ways to keep themselves busy and unbored with family, relationships  and themselves. 


WHAT ABOUT SIDE HUSTLES?



There are many people who have become unemployed because of the crises we are facing. Which means, people are out of work, have been laid off or having to depend on other means to make money.

This is the time for us to use our creative minds to create hustles. 
We have seen sewists making masks for sale online.
We have seen music artist have live stream concerts.
We have seen music DJs have listening parties.

We have seen comedians have comedy shows.
We have seen impersonators have lip synch shows.
We have seen fitness trainers doing workouts for their clients.
And those with a green thumb have gardening shows.


But what is your hustle?
What is your talent?
Do you have an idea that you can make money off of?
Well, this is definitely the time to brainstorm ideas.




Speaking of ideas, we are seeking male models who would like to do a Virtual Paint and Sip online. Models who have at least 100 Instagram followers who would be willing to pay $5 on a Patreon page to watch models pose while painting, skethcing and watching them at their location. Models will receive 50 percent of the Patreon sales. Parts of the proceeds will be donated to a COVID foundation or cause.

Theres no deadline but we would like to have a watch party for each model within after 14 days of the models promoting the project through their IG followers.

Models must be comfiortabel being nude, have a well lit area to pose, a decent sound mechanism to lay music and have a decent build.
If thats you email to maat.atkins@gmail.com


STREAMING VIEWZ


If 
As the country is on the Tiger King phenomenon, many other series have been overlooked. One is Ozark. Streamed on Netflix, Ozark stars Jason Bateman  and  Laura Linney as The Byrdes. Its about a married couple, The Byrdes,  who are forced to relocate their family to the Ozarks following a money laundering scheme with a Mexican drug cartel gone wrong.

In this third season, the couple owns a gambling boat that they use for their laundering duties as the FBI monitors their money moves. Also, the wife's brother in law comes to visit.  

Theres also a familiar face on teh series for all of you "Power" fans. LOL

We dont want to spoil anything, but for Ozark fans, this season is the best so far. It is defibitely a binge hook even if you are late to the series.

Its full of shocks and turns, and in the end, you will definitely will protest if a Season 4 has not been issued.





FASHIONEERZ


This week we feature a new segment that highlight African American entertainers who were or are fashion icons who set the standards of fashion.


This week we feature singer/rock guitarist, Lenny Kravitz.
When he came on the scene, he was dubbed Lisa Bonet;s husband in the mid 1980s. But he easily broke out of that shadow when he released his first album, "Let Love Rule" in 1989. His eclectic 60s rock fashion style with feather boas, leather vests, colorful bell botooms and long natted locs definitely got everyone's attention.

Since then, his style has been steady with the only thing changing is his hairdos from low cut to mini fros. He also ventured off into  various film and TV projects  througn director Lee Daniels including Precious, The Butler and the TV series "Star."

But one thing definitely is consistent, this boho king is comfortable in his way of life and style. 






As I was journeying through YOU TUBE I reflected on prolific Grammy Award winning singer songwriter and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bill Withers who died earlier this week at the age of 81. Very subdued and aloof when it came to celebrity, he was dubbed more a folk artist who changed the game when it came to black artists who was unique in his music style. His music has stood the test of time and it can be heard from artists who have covered his music including the late Michael Jackson, Club Nouveau, Meeshell N'dgeocello and Will Smith. 
Here is a clip of Withers performing one of his biggest hits, "Use Me" when he was on the weekly music show Soul Train in 1972.
