Atlanta has always had the sound. But MAKO Girls? They ARE the sound.

The Atlanta-based sister R&B and pop group is always bringing different styles, different flavors, and different attitudes together to voice one epic sound and Rizz Radio has been locked in since day one.

Since 2013, this hot trio has been putting in WORK. Over 50 cities across the U.S. Festivals. Concerts. Big stages. Small stages. If there's a mic, MAKO Girls have blessed it.

Some of their most memorable moments?

• The 5th Annual Carnival Glow Party
• Fresh Empire Atlanta Teen Showcase Edition
• Celebration of Music (aired on PBS)
• The Taste of Soul Festival in downtown Atlanta

And that's just the warm-up.

MAKO Girls' unique style caught the industry's attention early, they were featured as an opening act for Mindless Behavior as they continued to gain momentum industry-wide. From there, they kept rising, even blessing the stage for the BET Hip Hop Awards pre-show events.

Now? They're in their next chapter.

Presently, MAKO Girls are promoting their MAKO TAKEOVER CONCERT - Nov 14 in Atlanta.

Drewsland artist and Kingston, Jamaica's own, Chevar is back with his new single, "No Giving Up," released October 2nd. The track tells a story of perseverance, faith, and the determination to keep pushing despite the challenges of chasing a music career.

After years of recording, moving from studio to studio, and facing broken promises, Chevar continues to pursue his passion without a major breakthrough.

"I've been through a lot," Chevar says. "Studio to studio, door to door. People say they will help and disappear. But music is in me, I can't stop. So I keep recording."

With honest vocals and a soulful sound, "No Giving Up" speaks to aspiring artists and young people who know what it feels like to work hard while waiting for their opportunity. Chevar's message is simple: keep the faith, keep working, and never give up on your dreams.

Despite working without a big team or budget, Chevar continues to build his sound and establish his place in Kingston's underground music scene.
"No Giving Up" is available now on all streaming platforms.

Stream "No Giving Up" by Chevar and follow his journey on Instagram at @Chevar_music and @chevarvevo. Listen now on Rizz Radio
As Chevar puts it, he's still here, still recording, and still pushing forward. Deaf bwoiii

Fat Joe is catching serious heat after defending his use of the N-word by arguing that he's "Black" because of his upbringing in the Bronx and his deep connection to Black culture.

But many Black people aren't buying the logic. The criticism isn't about whether Fat Joe loves or contributed to hip-hop, it's more so about whether growing up around Black people and being immersed in Black culture makes someone "Black." And "Black" enough to use the "N". I feel the logic for many Black people is that we see people want to be us. Not understanding the daily life struggles of many Black People. We can see that people love our rhythm and hate our blues at the same damn time.

Now social media is dragging him!

What do YOU think? Is Fat Joe making a valid point-or is the logic completely off

Welcome to Island Coils at Rapunzel's Hair Studio in Fort Walton Beach, FL, a space created from my love for hair, beauty, creativity, and healthy hair care.

I'm Aja Cobbs, I am an artist! I am a hairstylist with more than 20 years of experience working with natural hair. Over the years, I've developed a passion for creating beautiful braided and protective styles while making sure the health and integrity of my clients' natural hair remains a priority.

I believe that beautiful hair should also be healthy hair. When you sit in my chair, I want you to feel confident knowing that I'm not only focused on how your style looks when you leave. I care about how your hair is cared for underneath the style as well.

At Island Coils, I take an intentional approach to braiding and natural hair care. I consider the condition of your hair and scalp, use techniques designed to minimize unnecessary tension, and choose products thoughtfully. Many of the products I use contain natural ingredients, because I believe in being mindful of what we put on our hair and scalp.

For me, hairstyling is about more than braids. It's an opportunity to help people feel beautiful, confident, and cared for.
Island Coils is my way of bringing together my creativity, experience, and passion for healthy natural hair in one place.

I'm so happy you're here, and I look forward to welcoming you to Island Coils

CHEVAR: The Voice Behind the Movement - Still Deaf Records

Kingston, Jamaica | 2026
YouTube: ChevarVEVO

In a dancehall scene drowning in noise, Chevar chooses to be heard differently. Artist, label boss, and cultural architect, he's not just making music. He's building Still Deaf Records a media movement for the ones who listen deeper than the crowd.

The Artist
Chevar's sound is grit and grace. Dancehall roots, Kingston energy, but with lyrics that cut past the gimmicks. He's the type of artist who speaks to the streets and the spirit at the same time. His voice carries weight because it's lived-in, tested in booths, soundclashes, and real life.

Fans don't just play his songs. They claim them. Because Chevar raps for the underdog, the believer, the ones who've been overlooked but still tuned in.

The Movement: Still Deaf Records?
The name says it all: Still Deaf. Deaf to the doubt. Deaf to the distractions. Deaf to anyone saying "it can't be done."

What started as a logo, a single ear crowned with headphones, no face became a symbol. That icon is already hitting merch: heavyweight tees, premium hoodies, streetwear that looks like luxury but feels like dancehall. Red burst, gold, emerald, magenta colorways, each drop is intentional.

Still Deaf Records isn't just a label. It's a media movement. Music, merch, visuals, and message all moving together. Chevar's proving you don't need permission from the industry to build culture. You need belief, consistency, and a symbol people can rally behind

Welcome to Behind the Hustle, where we take you beyond the spotlight and into the stories that shape today's most passionate creatives.

This time, we're shining that spotlight on Winston Christopher, a visual artist proudly representing Jacksonville, Florida. Armed with nothing more than patience, imagination, and a set of Prismacolor pencils, Winston transforms blank pages into detailed works of art that demand a closer look. His style blends precision with emotion, proving that even the simplest tools can create something powerful in the right hands.

In this interview, we dive into Winston's creative process, the hustle behind his craft, and the inspiration that keeps his pencils moving. From long hours refining technique to building his voice as an artist, Winston's journey is a reminder that great art is often born from dedication, discipline, and the courage to keep creating.

How did you first get started in drawing?

So, it all started roughly around the age of three. I went to the mom took us to watch the old Christian animated Veggietales movie on the weekend, and the Sunday morning following, I had taken a sharpie (the only writing utensil I had at the time) to draw what I saw in the theater onto the wall. It was extremely detailed, showcasing the events of the film, the cities and characters on full display. Despite the very well deserved chastisement and punishment I received, my mom and dad agreed that I had a talent to create and invested in getting me pencils, paper, coloring books, paint, etc.

What inspired you to choose colored pencils as your primary medium? What inspires
your medium?

Consequently, I think it's the aversion to mediums like graphite, acrylics and oil paints that made me choose pencils and specifically prismacolor pencils as my primary medium. You don't really have much control with these others as you would pencils. They're messy and get everywhere. I feel I am able to create an immense amount of varying pieces with different styles and colors from the pencils since they're easier to control with my hands; I'm not accustomed to strokes with brushes or constant rubbing with graphite/chalk blocks that require edits constantly. With pencils, I can decide how much or how little of the color(s) I want onto the canvas; I can determine the length of the piece I'm creating and control the amount of time it takes to finish it.
The art simply works for me, not me working for it, and I feel other mediums don't give me this type of freedom, if that makes sense.

How has creating online content impacted your artwork?

I'd say online content has played a huge part in the development of my work and the works I create. I've noticed that people have different tastes and preferences to what they consume. And I want to not necessarily conform to the desires of what people are willing to see, but adapt so that I can receive an audience (any audience) that is willing to view all my work and share it. From there, you eventually meet someone who themselves have an audience that they're willing to share your work to. And then those audience members share it and so on and so forth. It brings a domino effect that you can systematically control if you know who to target and whose buttons to push.

What advice do you have to anyone who has a dream of being a successful artist? What
do you advise people who have a dream to do next?

Please, and I sincerely mean this, if you have the desire to create and become a successful artist, victory is already within your grasp. Consistency is the key to the door of success, and what's reserved for you is waiting for you with immense patience. You must push yourself with intense passion to achieve the things you wish to see. Don't be afraid to try new things with your art. Learn to receive, rebuke and give it when it comes to what you create. Not everyone will like what you make, and that's fine, because even you don't like everything everyone creates! Be ready to fail any and every day, because failure and learning from failure is proof of victory not defeat.

What are your dreams and aspirations for your artwork in the next few years?

I know that in the coming months, if not by this year's end, I will be a successful artist director, art curator, an addition to multiple art museums & galleries, and I will be a teacher and animator.
My name will be known to many, and my fame will bring attention to my art and glory to The Most High God, in Jesus' Name.

If you could collaborate with any artist or creator, who would it be and why?

There's so so SO many, so please if you know me and you're reading this and feel left out, I promise I've not forgotten you! But one of the biggest artists I love is @QualityLenz, @Ahnarey, @_Reggo23, and ArtByCheyenne (@ArtsyGirlie) I love the photography and work QL does and he is the inspiration behind a majority of my pieces! I also love hyper realism and attention to detail that Ahna, Reggie and Chey make with their works, and the compositions they choose. It's so fye!
