Trevor Powers doesn’t look like your typical musician, not that there is a particular look to begin with. To the average person, he could visually come off as a slimmer, shaggier Shia Lebouf if he traded in his acting chops for other artistic ventures.

Cole (Grown Simba) If every Historically Black College or University (HBCU) had to be labeled as a member of Destiny’s Child, there would be a handful of Kellys, A LOT of Michelles and [...]

After our newest writer told everyone to stop doing Harlem Shake Meme Videos, I did one. BUT IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK I wanted to make a video that somehow could balance out all the bad things this meme has caused. You know, like one of those red laser gadgets the Men In Black have. [...]
So, I’m assuming y’all have seen this harlem shake bid’ness hurling around the web over the last few weeks yeah?
