Tay Keith Is An Architect of Virality
Picture this: you’re at a college party in August 2018. Solo cups are aimlessly scattered, the floors are sticky and that one Travis Scott and Drake ASTROWORLD single has played at least once in the past hour.Many can agree that being at a dingy day drink during Summer 2018 – the summer of “SICKO MODE” – was the prime place to be.

Sha’Carri Richardson Is Locked In
Let’s set the record straight: Sha’Carri Richardson isn't in her comeback era. Far from it, in fact. She’s spent the past three years training, competing and cementing her name in the history books.

At the Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon, she ran the 100-meter dash in 10.86 seconds, positioning the US as a contender for a gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics. Weeks later, it was revealed that Richardson had tested positive for THC, which, although legal in the state of Oregon, is prohibited by both the USADA (United States Anti-Doping Agency) and W...

2025 Aston Martin Vantage: A Classic Contender in a Tough Sports Car Market
These days, asking for a sports car and getting exactly what you want is actually quite difficult. Hybrid engines. Cars getting enormous. All-wheel drive setups. In a market saturated by these aspects, sometimes all you need is a pure driver's car in the classic front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout, gobs of power, and formulaic good looks. For the Aston Martin Vantage, whose nameplate dates back to the 70s but made its largest strides in the mid-2000s, performance and overall package was always key. It had a lot to live up to as the "baby" or entry-level Aston Martin, yet it appealed to consumers looking for just the right amount of exotic, downright sexy looks and performance capable of keeping up with the competition. AM seems to be pretty diehard with this direction for the Vantage and...
