Tyisha Blade is a freelance journalist and daisy-fresh college-graduate celebrating her birthday with CFA. Recovering from a house fire, we sip whiskey and talk about the fire, fixing family and figuring out who’s to blame for R. Kelly. Oddly, when we met, I thought she’d been hitting on me, but her Black Girl Magic rightly pulls the wig off my ego with pomp and aplomb.
