Before They Were Famous

In 2018, Yungeen Ace had one of the hardest years that anyone can possibly experience in life. I can’t even begin to imagine what he went through and continues to go through. He lost 2 of his friends and his little brother in a drive by shooting where he was also hit with 8 bullets, but was the only person to survive. On top of that, he went to jail after violating his probation. And all of this while dealing with the newfound stresses and survivors guilt of becoming a successful rapper without the people who he started with. And it wasn’t just last year that was tough for Ace. Growing up in Jacksonville Florida, he came from nothing. He had a huge family and his mother struggled to support her 8 children. Going through evictions, poverty and not seeing much light at the end of the tunnel, music was the only thing that gave Ace an ounce of hope and on beats was the only place where he felt comfortable enough to speak about his pain. This is gonna be a heavy one. But through all of that, Ace finds a way to stay positive and continues to strive for more out of life. So before starting the video, I just want to say that our prayers and well wishes go out to Ace and the families of all of those affected in the recent shooting.

Landing the role of a superhero in a Marvel film is about as good of a gig as any for any Hollywood actor. To the land, the title role as a female heroine who is presumably gonna save all the other Avengers is probably the best gig that's ever existed for an actress. The Oscar-winning actress beat out Charlize Theron, Olivia Wilde, Emily Blunt, and Jennifer Lawerence for the role. A lot of you guys probably don't know Brie Larson prior to her big Marvel debut but the actress has been in the biz since the age of 9. Her story has many ups and downs common for a child star... there were many times she wanted to quit, there were plenty of roles she didn't book including Peter Pan, Thirteen, and Juno and there was her awkward attempt at a music career. Sticking it out through tons of casting call rejection and having little to no money for food, Brie Larson persevered and ended up making it to the top of Hollywood.
