Enter Teedra Moses. Theblvdmag.com caught up with her as she prepared to take stage at New York’s R&B stalwart SOB’s in lower Manhattan. The last time we saw her, she was on... [Read the full story]

Houston’s Silent Threat: A Life Without Words
November 5, 2009 · 2 Comments
In the current economic climate, where 8.5 percent of Houstonians are losing or go without jobs monthly, the job search climate can seem daunting at best. Now, picture being a functionally illiterate person facing the same problem. Suddenly, prospects become bleaker. You’re well into your twenties or thirties but must depend on a parent, sibling, or friend to help you fill out job applications. Suppose your desire to pursue higher education and improve your overall position in life is stunted by your inability to employ something that is a core element of society, literacy. If you are reading... [Read the full story]

Stop Frontin: A Lacefront Intervention
July 13, 2010 · 1 Comment
Maybe next to “I love your shoes,” there is almost no compliment greater to a woman than “Wow, you have such pretty hair.” We know this, and that’s why besides sheer hair health, vanity is the reason we spend countless dollars, hours, and sweat at the “shop” getting that hair did. Still, somewhere during the last decade the idea of wearing one’s own hair fell by the way side like the choker necklace. Enter the lacefront. You may see women wearing them at work, or at the church house. Or even running errands while out and about in the city. We’re convinced we’ve seen enough of... [Read the full story]
