aboutUs by Hotspotorlando


Once Again lives wasted away, terror, fear, unjustified violence that doesn’t belong to our expectations. We keep trying to solve problems that have no solution like human rage. I personally think that someone with a very high level of family values, and also religious, is not able to such crimes, but then again, we can write this in stone, can we? There is no doubt that people that inflict pain, and horror, but hide are cowards, they do not fear God, they have nothing to loose. I have seen a lot lately, priests that have no shame, Pastors that lost their way, innocents dying, unjustified rage, and still a lot of personal deceptions in the personal level, but I can’t understand this. Darkness, crime, disrespect to the holy. Life is a precious gift, must be respected. It is priceless, life is the vessel of our soul that belongs to God, should be always put above all. I have seen it all lately, but what I really want to see is Justice, and to all watching every crime committed against humanity, I would like to ask for a prayer to all, to the criminal, the victims and to the authorities. They need to find a way to put an end to all this. Tonight, hold your children, your family, your animals your loved ones, call the ones far, make sure you have a chance to express your love for them. We never know what brings tomorrow. Have a great month!

Editorial A few months ago I spoke about wasting lives, a shameful accident in Brazil when a night Club went on fire, a random shooting killing kids in a school in the USA, and now the bombing in Houston.

Perpetual Peace

Horse Since the age of 10, Jill Greenberg has staged photographs and created characters using the media of drawing, painting, sculpture, film, and photography. She is known worldwide for her uniquely human animal portraits which intentionally anthropomorphize her subjects. Her photos have graced the cover of Newsweek, Wired, Entertainment Weekly, Time and she was selected by French Photo Magazine for their 40th anniversary issue to represent one of the 40 most important photographers. Her work is shown courtesy of ClampArt. Jill Greenberg will also be a guest speaker in our lecture series.

Originally a hairstylist, he picked up a camera on set, when he felt that photographers weren’t capturing his hairstyles properly.

Jay Mark Johnson Il Mercado A Sinistra Artist Jay Mark Johnson produces photographic images that challenge the norms of perception. Jay Mark Johnson’s photographs may look like photoshop experiments, but they are images taken straight from a slit camera used for capturing vast landscapes. The camera captures light through a small slit in its rotating head, effectively exposing the image slowly from one side to the other. With still landscapes this registers as a normal image, but in Johnson’s work which feature moving subjects, the unique result captures both space and time. Because he has rigged the camera to move at nearly the same speed as his moving subjects, they are recorded as still and recognizable images in a moving background of streaked color. In these images we are not simply seeing left to right, but in fact left is the past and right is the

Slavery Acclaimed humanitarian photographer Lisa Kristine specializes in images of remote indigenous people. Lisa has documented in over 80 countries on six continents, using a 19th century 4×5” field view camera for the majority of her work. Lisa’s work has been auctioned by Christie’s New York for the United Nations with Kofi Annan. Her images were the inspiration for 8 year old Vivienne Harr to create the Make A Stand Lemonade, which raised over $400,000 to date to free enslaved children. Lisa Kristine will be headlining our lecture series on Saturday May 4th, and will be available for book signing. Stephen Knapp Intervention Stephen Knapp is an American artist best known for his use of the medium of lightpainting. He has gained an international reputation for large-

scale works of art held in museums,

public, and private collections, which are executed in media as diverse as light, kiln-formed glass, metal, stone, mosaic, and ceramic. For nearly a decade after graduating from college, he worked as a fine art photographer, selling his work to corporate and private collectors in the United States and abroad. During this early stage in his career Knapp worked closely with Polaroid Corporation on their 20×24 camera, creating large scale instant photographs. Stephen Knapp will also be a guest speaker in our lecture series. Nicolas Senegas Camille


Born in 1983 in Castres, France, Nicolas Sénégas studied anthropology and photography. Early on, he developed a passion for studying humans, in their physical and aesthetical dimensions, but also in their approach to spirituality, rites, customs, desires and fears. Nicolas is joining us at Snap! Cedric Arnold

Sacred Ink Cedric Arnold is a documentary photographer based in Bangkok, Thailand. Having lived in SE Asia for many years, Arnold was always intrigued by beliefs in magic in the region. Arnold’s powerful, yet sensitive portraits present a mystical subculture through its rituals, and symbols; a chest etched with a fierce leaping tiger, a hand adorned with images of geckos on each finger, a back protected by a monkey God, or a shoulder inscribed with ancient Khmer text… Shot on a 4×5” camera the series of black-and-white portraits – the negatives of which are chemically altered by brushing various chemicals onto the emulsion depict men from all walks of life and all ages, proudly showing the inked protection on their bodies.

Jeff Frost Time of War

The Struggle to Right Oneself

Snap! presents the US premiere of “Time of War,” a series inspired by Chaos, Ash Wednesday and Mantra of Light. It is the second chapter of the “I am Dust” project, an autobiographical body of work about incarnation and Samsara (cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth). Olivier Valchecci will be joining us at Snap!

In his photographic self-portrait series artist Kerry Skarbakka captures himself in moments of suspended peril: falling from trees, tumbling head over heels in painfully precarious falls, slipping nude in the shower, or teetering on the edge of a fateful leap from a railway bridge. In his artist statement, Skarbakka references philosopher Martin Heidegger’s description of human existence as a process of perpetual falling, and the responsibility of each person to catch ourselves from our own uncertainty.

Stephanie Jung

Maigo Desu III German photographer Stephanie Jung travels the world to capture the vibrant and hectic mood of a place. Motifs such as urbanity, identity, and anticipation placed at tension with cultural tradition stand at the center of the unique images of Japan by Stephanie Jung. Depicted are the everyday street and cityscapes of Tokyo, Shibua, Osaka, and Nara,

Project 2013 As the shadow of night falls across the American West a lone man begins his work. Far from the confines, calamity, and culture of society, multimedia artist and storyteller Jeff Frost sifts through the visual dregs of places and people who once were. Combining still and time-lapse photography with motion, music, and art, Frost reveals a world rarely seen. Rooted in science and the exploration of space, Frost’s work explodes with light, fire, and sound, utilizing 2D and 3D perspective, leading the viewer on a unique visual journey through worlds both real and imagined. California-based multimedia artist Jeff Frost will be a part of our lecture series and his print and video work will be on display at Snap! Kerry Skarbakka

Santlov

Misunderstanding Focus Nerhol’s latest work, “Misunderstanding Focus”, consists of multiple ‘conversions.’ Generally speaking, a portrait renders a three-dimensional face onto a flat plane. However, Nerhol, the Japanese creative duo of Yoshihisa Tanaka and Ryuta Iida, makes portraits more complex through multiple conversions. Simply put, these artists undertake at least three processing steps: after converting a three-dimensional face into a two-dimensional portrait, they translate the latter into a three-dimensional sculpture, which in turn is made into a two-dimensional portrait.

Aberrations Jim Kazanjian’s surreal landscapes offer phantasmagoric vi-

sions of a where-is-this world, defined by impossibly complex architecture and M.C.Escheresque black-and-white graphics. Inspired by the imaginary realms of cult author H.P. Lovecraft – whose wild, cosmic short stories set the mold for much of the 20th century’s best science fiction – Kazanjian’s aim is to redress the “misunderstanding that photography has a kind of built-in objectivity.”

In an on-going effort to expose more youth to the arts, the team also partners with the Orange County Arts Education Center (OCAEC) on the Magic Journey to the Arts Program. Through the program more than 12,000 students from Title I schools in Orange County are given the opportunity to participate in a variety of arts-related experiences by providing free transportation to local arts venues for performances. The Magic values the arts in our community, according to the Florida Cultural Alliance, students with high levels of arts participation tend to outperform students without arts access. Additionally, arts experiences have been proven to enhance critical thinking and other core skills in student academic development. The OMYF’s grants and Magic’s partnership with the arts and OCAEC also aligns with one of the Magic’s three offthe-court focus areas. The Magic identified three key ar-

ORLANDO SCIENCE CENTER Star Wars速: Where Science Meets Imagination Developed by the Museum of Science, Boston in collaboration with Lucasfilm Ltd., Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination is a 10,000 square-foot exhibit that explores the fantasy technologies depicted in the Star Wars films, the real science behind them, and the current research that may someday lead to remarkable real-life versions of the technologies seen in the film series. With support from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and presented by Bose Corporation, Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination is the first exhibition to display costumes and props from all six Star Wars films with real-world technologies. The exhibit includes extensive video interviews with filmmakers, scientists and engineers; and hands-on components, including two large Engineering Design Labs, where visitors can build and test their own speeders and robots. As you enter the exhibit it is as you are entering the movie set, with original props of spaceships, weapons and all the amazing artifacts, gadgets and beautiful masks and wardrobe, meticulously created for one of the best movie series ever created. Star Wars defined an entire generation, not only because of the special effects but a whole philosophy that was absorbed by all that followed the movie and waited impatiently for each sequel to come out. This exhibit is a trail of fiction that took science to the next level, an array of inventions that seemed impossible, and today are a reality, based in the artifacts seen in science fiction movies. The Orlando Science Center had this exhibit until April 7th and was visited by thousands of fans and children during spring break.

The Millennium Falcon


The Rebel Alliance-The X-Wing Star Fighter The X-wing is a versatile Rebel Alliance starfighter that balances speed with firepower. Armed with four laser cannons and two proton torpedo launchers, the X-wing can take on anything the Empire throws at it.

The Y-wing is a workhorse starfighter has been in use since the Clone Wars. Used for dogfights and for bombing runs against capital ships and ground targets, Y-wings are often overshadowed by newer models such as the X-wing and the A-wing.

Nimble engines give the X-wing an edge during dogfights, and it can make long-range jumps with its hyperdrive and its astromech droid co-pilot. Luke Skywalker is famous for destroying the Death Star behind the controls of an X-wing.

But the Y-wing's historical importance is remarkable, and it has reliably served multiple generations of star pilots. Both ships inspired in Aircrafts of the 20th Century-II World War.

Winter Park Kraft Azalea Park , sometimes Kraft Azalea Garden is a scenic public park located in the city of Winter Park, Florida just north of Orlando, Florida. The park is bordered by Lake Maitland on the North and West. The quiet 11-acre park has benches for reading, picnic, or just spending a quiet relaxing time. There are trails for short walks and the park also has a small dock that is open for fishing. The Scenic Boat Tours, a well-established boat tour from downtown Winter Park routinely passes by the park. The Exedra monument, which is viewable from the boat tour, has been used for photo shoots and weddings. The park may be reserved for private events as such, but the park management limits the number of guests. Lake front, secluded and unique, Kraft Azalea is Winter Park’s secret garden! This beautiful park is shaded by enormous cypress trees that add to the old Florida charm of the 11-acre property. If you visit in the afternoon you can see The Rollins men’s rowing team training, dogs swimming and visitors taking pictures. It has a breathtaking view that catches everyone that visits the Park that can also be rented for a limited number of people for ceremonies, with the City of Winter Park, it is located at 1365 Alabama Drive Winter Park, FL 32789 Phone: 407-599-3334 http://cityofwinterpark.org/Pages/Departments/Parks_and_Recreation

Luiz Torres Bayon - Bayon Sculpture is an art that represents plastic images in full or partial. Various techniques exist from working materials such as cinzelação, casting, molding or particle agglomeration to create an object. Various materials lend themselves to this art, some more permanent as bronze or marble, other easier to work as clay, wax or wood. Although they can be used to represent anything, or even nothing, traditionally the main goal was always to represent the human body, or the divinity in anthropomorphic form. Sculpture is considered the fourth of the classical arts. Through most of history, remained the works of artists who have used the most permanent and durable as possible such as stones (marble, limestone, granite) or metals (bronze, gold, silver). Sometimes they used techniques to improve the durability of certain materials (clay, terracotta) or employing the organic source materials noblest possible (durable woods like ebony, rosewood, materials like ivory or amber). But in general, although one can carve almost anything that can keep for at least a few hours to idealized form (butter, ice, wax, plaster, wet sand), these ephemeral works can not be appreciated by an audience that is not coeval. Here in Brazil we have the privilege of having a fantastic sculptor of great talent and sensitivity Bayón Luiz Torres. better known as Bayon, we would like you to meet your talent and a bit of his success story. LUIS TORRES Bayon, was born in Barcelona - Spain came to São Paulo at age 10 with his family, is naturalized, but always keeping the bond and connection Barcelona Brazil-studied and worked in both countries. His family decided to settle in the city of São Paulo where he developed his training and studies. He graduated in Fine Arts at FAAP - Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado and specializes in Art Education from ACE - School of Communications and Arts at USP - Universidade de São Paulo. Keeping alive the connection between São Paulo Barcelona makes several trips sometimes lasting for long periods of time, thus completing courses and experiences. He specialized in Sculpture from UB University of Barcelona. His interest in sculpture began in college when I had

class with the sculptor Nicolas Vlavianos, and later starts attending your workshop, developing its own projects of sculpture in iron and steel. The fascination for stone carving happened a few years later when she meets the Swiss sculptor Rinaldo Willi who also started in the art. Attended classes at Barcelona's Spanish sculptor Mariano Andres Vilella. Feeling the need to delve into the art of stone carving, came to know in St. Paul sculptor Alvaro Franklin and attended his course for three years.

VICKTALKINGALOT AND FANS VIC KY TALKIN A LOT OF THANKS

Algumas pessoas não podem compreender como pessoas podem trocar tanto carinho, sem nunca ter se encontrado, sem nunca ter se visto, sem nunca ter se conhecido pessoalmente. Eu quero que você saiba como você é importante o quanto representa para mim no mundo virtual. Nós dividimos nossos pensamentos, nossos sonhos, nossos planos para o futuro ...Com que outro meio faríamos isso tão bem?!?Muitas pessoas não sabem que nós, amigos virtuais, nos preocupamos um com o outro,e trocamos tantas coisas que aprendemos aqui. Não sabem que trocamos abraços ( e até beijinhos! )Eles não sabem o quanto podemos e temos ainda a aprender! Eu quero que você saiba que meus dias são mais brilhantes que meus pensamentos são muito mais felizes só por sua causa. Quero que você saiba que ter você em minha rede sociaL alegra o meu dia e me faz querer sempre buscar coisas diferentes para poder dividir com vocês e ate fazer a alegria de muitas pessoas que diariamente demonstram seu carinho por mim. Quero desejar-lhes toda a felicidade em todos os dias de sua vida! E para terminar eu agradeço aos céus por este mundo virtual porque sem ele eu nunca conseguiria chegar assim tão perto de você e nem conquistar meus objetivos.

Obrigada por sua verdadeira amizade, essa e’ a minha pequena homenagem a todos vocês que realmente curtem o meu trabalho e estão sempre ligadinhos em mim!!!!!!! Beijinhos do fundo do meu coração

Vicky.


VICKYTALKINGALOTANDFANS Some people can not understand how someone can have such a caring relationship without even meet, without ever seeing each other, or any personal contact. It is amazing how social media replaced this need, and improved the way we see each other.

I want all my fans to know how important you are, and how much you represent to me ! Every day we share thoughts, feelings and ideas, our dreams, our plans for the future ... what other way would we do that would work so well?!? Many people don’t understand how virtual friends, care about each other, and exchange so many feelings. A lot of people are still learning how to engage in social media and didn’t realize how important it can be in your life. I want you to know, my days are more shiny my thoughts are much happier for this reason. I want you know that because I have you in my life, even virtually, it cheers my day and makes me want to always seek different things to share with you and even gives joy to many people who daily demonstrate their affection towards me. I wish you all the happiness! the same I get from you, every day of your life! And finally I thank heaven for this, to give me the opportunity to get close to you and even conquer my goals.

Thank you for your true friendship, and here I leave my small tribute to all of you who really enjoy my work and are always connected to me!!!! Kisses from the bottom of my heart

A guitar professional

By Charles Portela A Guitar Professional I spoke with Luiz Silva Jr., great instrumentalist and guitar teacher ! He is still very young, with only 27 years of age, and took his time to tell me a bit of his story, in a short conversation: Since when do you play guitar and what is your Musical influence? -I play guitar since I was 9 years old and my biggest influences were my father Luiz Silva, and other guitarists like Joe Satriani, Andy Timmons, Frank Gambale. I always had an open mind to all musical styles. What are your experiences as a musician and what is your current project? -I had many experiences in the field, both good and bad, but nothing that will make me quit. My passion for music is greater than anything! I had very good experiences playing with certain artists that I admire, which influenced me musically such as, Andre Valadão David Sacer and his wife Veronica Sacer, Nani Azevedo, Soraya Moraes, group blessed Beyond the Veil etc ... I also developed a great friendship with Gospel artists such as Fernadinho, PG and his wonderful band. -I always keep in contact with everyone. My current project is my solo CD, which is very time consuming not only for lack of time , but also for technical problems with my computer . I’ve been working in a partnership with Master Quality Studios in Orlando, where my friend Hector is the sound engineer. We have recently concluded a project where I recorded the guitar finals for an artist named Michael Estrada that is now working on his first CD.

Very good musical arrangements on the part of my friend Hector and anointed lyrics of Michael. Luiz what is your opinion: Being a musician is a matter of natural aptitude or acquired? -I believe that God enables all of us with different skills to praise etc. But there are people, who have a natural tendency to Music and rhythm they are naturals, making them not just music lovers but extraordinary musicians. Whenever I talk to my students, it is not just about having talent, but talent has to be accompanied by Passion for the instrument and the will to play. Without passion or study an uneducated talent is unfortunately buried. Luiz Silva Jr opened a company that aims to develop musicians to the Ministry. It is called LSJ Flame Guitar Works, which also makes productions, arrangements, schedules, guitar classes, guitars and bass classes, instruments repairs and also customizing of instruments for special applications (custom guitars).

Hector e letras ungidas de Michael.

Conversei com Luiz Silva Jr. Grande instrumentista, e professor de guitarras! Ainda tão jovem com apenas 27 anos, ele nos conta um pouco de sua história, confira nossa conversa:

Luiz qual a sua opinião: Ser musico é uma questão de aptidão natural ou adquirida?

Desde quando você toca guitarra e quais suas influências musicais? -Toco guitarra desde os 9 anos de idade e minhas maiores influências foram: meu pai Luiz Silva, e outros guitarristas como Joe Satriani, AndyTimmons, Frank Gambale enfim. Sempre tive a mente aberta para todos estilos musicais. Quais suas experiências como músico e qual seu projeto atual? -Tenho várias experiencias no ramo, tanto boas quanto ruins, mas não ao ponto de me fazerem desistir. A paixão pela música é maior!!! Experiências muito boas como tocar com certos artistas que admiro e que me influenciam muito musicalmente como: Andre Valadão, Davi Sacer e sua esposa Verônica Sacer, Nani Azevedo, Soraya Moraes, grupo abençoado Além do Véu etc.… Tenho desenvolvido também uma grande amizade com artistas Gospel, tais como Fernandinho, o PG e sua banda maravilhosa. Sempre mantemos contato. Meu projeto atual é meu CD solo, que tem demorado muito para sair até mesmo por falta de tempo e problemas técnicos com meu computador… rsrsr. Mas tenho trabalhado muito em parceria com o studio Mestre Quality Studios em Kissimmee, onde um amigo, Hector Mestre é o engenheiro de som. Recentemente concluímos um projeto onde gravei os violões finais, para o primeiro CD de um artista que se chama Michael Estrada. Excelente arranjos da parte de meu amigo

-Creio que Deus capacita todos nos com diferentes habilidades para louvar etc. Mas existem pessoas, as quais, a Música e o ritmo são natural a elas, fazendo-as não simplesmente amantes da música mas músicos extraordinários. Sempre falo aos meu alunos, que não basta ter só o talento, mas o talento tem que ser acompanhado da paixão pelo instrumento, e de querer tocar. Sem paixão não tem estudo, e sem estudo o talento é infelizmente enterrado. 
 Luiz Silva Jr abriu uma companhia que visa desenvolver músicos para o Ministério. Se chama LSJ Guitar Works, onde também faz produções, arranjos, programações, aulas de guitarras, violões e baixo, conserta instrumentos e também faz instrumentos à pedidos (custom guitars).

Hello friends, This week I wanted to write an interesting subject, and looking inside my roots, I thought about several issues, frevo, maracatu, Bumbameu-boi, all subjects very interesting in my opinion, but I opted for Cordel Literature, a form of writing very popular in the North and Northeast of Brazil. What is Cordel Literature ? Cordel literature is also known in Brazil as a brochure, and as a popular literary genre often written in rhyming form, originated in verbal form and then printed on leaflets. Dates back to the sixteenth century, when the Renaissance popularized the impression reports, and kept it on literary form, very popular in Brazil.

lio Vargas (1883-1954) are some ofTwine subjects who had the highest circulation in the past. There is no limit to the creation of themes of the leaflets. Virtually any subject can turn the attention of a poet. In Brazil the string literature is a typical production from the Northeast, especially in the states of Pernambuco (where I was born, and I'm very proud of it), the Paraiba and Ceara .

It used to be sold in markets and fairs, where I could buy some rigt off the hands of its authors some time ago, when my trip to Aracaju, a thriving town in the Northeast Brazil, where I still have some friends. The Cordel today is sold at cultural fairs,culture houses and bookstores!! "The poetry of Cordel is one of the purest manifestations of inventive spirit, the sense of humor and critical capacity of the Brazilian people, in their modest interior layers " The name comes from the traditional way the “Carlos Drummond de Andrade “ leaflets were displayed for sale, hanging from ropes, cords or string in Portugal. Some poems are illustrated with woodcuts, also used in the covers . The cordelistas recite these verses so melodious and lilting, accompanied by viola as also do readings or declamations very excited and excited to win thepossible buyers. In 1988, was founded in Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian Academy of Cordel Literature. The themes are a variety of everyday, historical episodes, legends, and Religious themes among many others.

Joseph Pilates wrote several books, including Return to Life through Contrology and Your Health, and he was also a prolific inventor, with over 26 patents cited. Joe and Clara had a number of disciples who continued to teach variations of his method or, in some cases, focused exclusively on preserving the method, and the instructor-training techniques, they had learned during their studies with Joe and Clara.

ORIGEM DO PILATES Joseph H. Pilates nasceu em 1883, em Mönchengladbach, Alemanha. Seu pai era um premiado ginasta de ascendência grega, e sua mãe trabalhou como uma naturopath. Originalmente seu sobrenome era escrito na forma grega como "Pilatu", mas mudou para "Pilates" apos a imigração para a Alemanha.

Scotland Yard. No entanto, as autoridades britânicas o internaram durante a I Guerra Mundial, juntamente com outros cidadãos alemães em um campo de internamento, primeiro no Castelo de Lancaster, onde ele ensinou luta e auto-defesa, ostentando que seus alunos iriam emergir mais forte do que antes de sua internação. Foi aqui que ele começou a se definir e a ensinar o seu sistema mínimo de exercícios de solo, que mais tarde tornou-se "contrologia". Ele foi então transferido para outro campo de internamento na Ilha de Man.

A nova ortografia causou a Joseph ​​ Pilates muito pesar ainda como criança, porque os meninos mais velhos zombavam dele chamando-o de "Pôncio Pilatos, assassino de Cristo". Durante esta pausa involuntária, ele começou a desenvolver intensamente Pilates foi uma criança doente e sofria seu conceito de um sistema integrado de asma, raquitismo e febre reumática, e abrangente de exercício físico, o que ele dedicou toda a sua vida a melhorar ele mesmo chamou de "Contrologia". a sua força física.

Pilates passou a acreditar que o "moderno" estilo de vida, má postura e respiração ineficiente colocam em risco as raízes de saúde. Ele finalmente planejou uma série de exercícios e treinamento de técnicas e engenharia de todo o equipamento, especificações e ajuste necessário para ensinar seus métodos corretamente.

Depois da guerra (WWI), ele voltou para a Alemanha e colaborou com especialistas importantes na dança e exercício físico, como Rudolf Laban. Em Hamburgo, ele também treinou policiais. Quando ele foi pressionado a treinar os membros do exército alemão, ele deixou seu país natal, decepcionado com as suas condições políticas e sociais, e emigrou para os Estados Unidos.

What's good Orlando? This month I'am very excited to talk about the latest release from South Coast Recording artist "Some Kosher Yuppy" This is Yuppy's sophomore EP and it's titled "The Rebel's Reason". This EP really came from the heart and it captures the life of a kid in his early 20's that feels like a rebel in this mechanical world of robots. From beginning to end, you will be entertained with excellent production and most importantly meaningful lyrics. Some Kosher Yuppy is quickly gaining a local buzz and is one of Orlando's newest yet brightest artist. Yuppy believes that every one should give their all to their hidden talent because at the end of the day, we were put here to chase our passions not regret why we didn't. Born in Louisville Ky, Yuppy moved to Orlando at age 9 to stay with his father. Every since middle school, Yuppy has had the same circle of friends that to this day still hang out with each other almost daily. These child hood friends make up the group G.M.A.T.T. "Give my all to talent" or "Get money all the time" Yuppy is the only M.C. in the crew but they all have a role. I always tell young artist how important it is to have a team in place that have responsibilities not just friends hanging around. Anyway, Yuppy relates to today's youth and understands that through music he can give guidance through his own experiences. The debut single is called "Wrong Things" and it talks about Yuppy's life from high school through college, the birth of his daughter and his relationship with his team G.M.A.T.T.
