This past weekend, M.O.G.U.L. Sports Group and their founder, Marquis L. Taylor, put together a charity event in NYC to donate $1,000 to the national non-profit organization, The Fresh Air Fund. The event, dubbed, An Evening with M.O.G.U.L. was the first charity event for the sports group, whose acroynym M.O.G.U.L. stands for Motivating Our Generation To Uplift Lives.
Marquis was inspired to donate to the charity after recently seeing a presentation about them. The Fresh Air Fund has been around since 1877, providing free summer experiences in the country to more than 1.7 million New York City children from disadvantaged communities. Each year, thousands of children visit volunteer host families in 13 states and Canada through the Friendly Town Program or attend Fresh Air Fund camps.
Marquis promised to continue his efforts to support charities across the country with a quarterly event. The next event is set to take place in November. We will keep you posted on the details for the event.
Below find images from the most recent event.

Spotlight Feature
Sometimes, it must fall upon the journalist to ensure that what they are hearing in an interview is clear enough that they can truthfully and accurately present their subject's words as quotations. This may require asking for an answer repeatedly, admitting you missed something that could have been important, or actively picking and choosing which quotes should be completely captured in a form of verbal triage. Other times, it may simply require asking the subject to slow down because your cell phone's speaker is woefully inadequate. Such was the case with Kirko Bangz, and regrettably, I did not follow the advice laid out above. The following is what I can transcribe from my conversation with the Houston hopeful, whose Drake on promethazine approach has been reverberating within the scene.
