So you may not know him now but you will know him very soon! Basile Shingu a native of Charlotte, North Carolina. While having deep roots within the Democratic Republic of Congo he keeps close to his culture. The 19 year old photographer is a member of the Immaculate Taste record label where he not only take pictures for the label but does graphic design for them also. When I asked him, "Homie what inspires he you?" He replied, "As cliche as it sounds pretty much everything inspires me." Which is one of the most cliche answers an artist can say...BUT I know it to be true due to working with him on many of my own projects. As one of his main clients I let him do all of the creative work I just come with my body and my clothing and let his mind wander. His favorite photographer as of right now is the late and great Bill Cunningham. May he rest in peace and hopefully he knows that he is missed. He plans on venturing into more things than just photography he plans on dipping himself into fashion design and only any form of design....SO maybe in the future if y'all need an interior decorator hit up BShingu. Finally, I asked "What do you want your work to be?" He replies instantly and passionately saying, "I want my work to be timeless. I want my work to evoke emotion whether it be nostalgia, happiness, laughter you know things of that nature." There is no want for his pictures to be all of that because they already are! If you would like to get into contact with BShingu my brother from another mother you can follow him at @Bshingu on Instagram or email him at ShinguBasile@gmail.com. Below I have some of the work that he has done for me in the past! The work that he does from me can range from business shots (3>2.96 but that is another article) and personal ones during events or while we are out on the town.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
