This really should have happened ages ago. Beyonce has effectively been the definition of that “gym life” since…pre-pubescence, so for her to not have a line of leggings and sports bras is pretty much a gaping hole in American capitalism. But all’s well, the queen will still make an absolute killing when her Ivy Park “athleisure” (as if we need a tag word to give women a reason wear spandex while doing errands on a Sunday) hits the market in April. The mid-priced ($30 to $200) line will be available at Beyonce’s Ivy Park site, Nordstrom’s, Topshop (Beyonce partnered w/ Topshop’s founder Sir Phillip Green on the line), and Net-a-Sporter. Finally all of the young women (and men) uploading their own versions of Bey’s “Formation” video (some, very inappropriate) will at least be able to do so in Beyonce-sanctioned stretch pants : )

biggs-interview

It’s difficult to sum up everything that Kareem “Biggs” Burke did for Roc-A-Fella Records and its artists in one single blog blurb. For average rap fan, he might just be a name you’ve heard associated with Jay Z and Dame Dash, but for real rap historians, his place in Roc history is just as important as Hov, Dame and any of the rappers that hafe flourished under their tutelage.

He was there from day one when Jay was still shopping for a deal, and he was there when the company they started sold for $30 million some odd years later. The New York City native has traveled the world as a quiet business man and mogul, survived the streets, served time in prison, brushed shoulders with A-List celebs, made millions — and so much more.
