Movie Deal: True To the Game on the big screen


"True to the game" written by Terri Woods is a drama love story set in the 1980s. The main characters are Quadir and Gena. Quadir whom is a native of New York meets Gena, a philly girl, and introduces her to his fast paced drug dealing lifestyle. 

The book sold millions of copies world wide. The success was so major for the book, Teri Woods signed a deal with Manny Halley who has acquired the rights to the book; they are bringing the words to life on the big screen. 

Woods and Halley have started putting their film/television group together. Nia hill will be the writer and director. Leah Daniels-Butler is set to be the casting director for True to the Game. She was responsible for the casting in "The Butler," "Precious," "ATL," and "Empire."

Columbus Short, Evan Ross, Erica Peeples and Draya Michele have been added to the cast. Draya will be playing Quadir's ex "Cherrell." The movie is set to start filming this year in 2015, which means we could expect the project to be completed by next year or early 2017. 

We're very excited about this!

Campaign: Is Hypnotiq making a come back?

Reality star/socialite Draya is becoming a popular face in main stream media. You may have seen the bombshell in a few music videos or even on a random reality show. Now she is tapping further into her entrepreneur spirit and is joining the Hypnotiq campaign titled #Since2001.


Hypnotiq decided to relaunch their brand, and bring some popular faces along the way. Rapper/actor Cam'ron and designer/DJ Va$htie are participating in the campaign. The campaign is set to expand more within a couple months, that is if Hypnotiq continues at the speed they're going now.


Artist Naturel created a unique way to market the brand and give it that new spark we've been waiting for. Hypnotiq was very popular back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The buzz seemed to have died down for a while, possibly due to the competition with other liquors on the market. None the less we are excited about the new campaign. Hypnotiq has always been a classic, the campaign is just bringing it to this generation's attention.
