Honored to photograph @asvpxrocky for this new chapter.
My first @VibeMagazine cover in nearly 20 years.
Some moments feel bigger than the page.

I opened my archive for the first time — and @DakaraiAkil met it with fire.
D’Angelo, Harlem ’95 → Future frequency.
The past didn’t come back —
It moved forward.

Legacy isn’t about preservation.
It’s about resonance.
What we create should keep vibrating long after we’re gone.
That’s what “The Light Continues” means to me.

When culture was analog, this is how we made icons immortal.

NYC, 1990. A Walkman, ATCQ’s debut, and a new life. That album shaped my days.
8 years later, I shot them on Lafayette St — where their music first moved me. One rooftop shot, skyline behind them, now part of their Rock Hall induction.
Full circle. Forever grateful. #ATCQ
