“I am what my name says I am….. Fresh”

The new improved Fresh. Version 2.0. Yes, an upgrade, not attributed to a new chic, I upgraded myself. I am everything human. I, at all times, represent the dualities that make us human. Happiness and sadness, laughter and anger, good and bad, both an angel and rebel. I play the devil’s advocate but only to reveal the halo that sits above my horns… confused? Hahahaha, don’t trip, I am an enigma even to myself.

Fresh for president.

Hello world!

I go by the name Chad Bell otherwise known as CB. I just want to introduce myself and also thank those who have shown there support to TheConcreteJournal.com I am very pleased that we are doing a relaunch and we are off to bigger and better things. To give you a little insight on me, I am a co-owner of this great online magazine. I also play basketball as well, professionally overseas. So I am definitely doing my thang. Look out for me to be on the cover of Fortune 500 Magazine in my near future, I don’t think there has been many bruthas like myself who can say they will grace the cover of that magazine. As you can tell I speak things into existence so it shall come to pass. I hope you all enjoy being a part of
history. I look forward to being with you on this journey every step of the way.

Take care.

What it is?????? I’m Josh…sometimes known as Joe…I mean what can I say, I’m me! Just a God fearing, fun loving guy with half an opinion. I’m one of those dudes who tries to be funny, (like ill tell a joke and hope people laugh). On the other hand, I still want people to see the real side of things, that’s where the journal comes in. When it comes to the journal, I’m Mr. Religion (because God is the head of my life) / Music (cause I know a couple of people in the business)/ Fashion(cause I have a passion for it)/ whatever else I can get my hands on to write about…lol. I mean don’t get me wrong, I’m not the best writer in the world, but I always say, do the write thing…lol

I HAVE LEARNED FROM MY PAST SO I CAN IMPROVE ON MY FUTURE.AND NOW, I BRING THIS TO YOU!!

Tiffany Hobbs (AKA T. Hobbs) is a California import by way of Queens, NY. She is easily ticked off by people who tell her she’s “not really from NY” because of her few years spent there, but has begun to embrace her ties to Los Angeles as she strives to uncover in her writing the things that make L.A. unique. She considers the 90s to be one of the best periods of music, and can often be seen driving around town blasting Sade, Lauryn Hill, Tribe, Janet, and various Blackground/Goldmind artists. Tiffany cites Michael Eric Dyson, Dr. Maya Angelou, Kanye West, Dr. Todd Boyd, S. P., her crazy family, her mother, and Jesus as her biggest influences. She is a graduate of USC, has a bunch of dogs, works in the mental health field (because it takes one to know one), and hopes to one day write books to educate others on black culture, as well as to inspire the world to think through her writing on TheConcreteJournal.Com.
