LYFE INTERVIEWS JEFFREY TINDI

DELIA DIVINE 12/12/2014

Finally I've gotten the chance to interview this awesome designer by name of Jeffrey Tindi. Not only that but this fella here is the designer of "I AM A GOD" tees over at our online store. Collaborating with him was a spiritual experience. We connected when it came to this project.He is a designer about detail . He saw the vision and made it his own.I am beyond pleased with his work.
After the tee design was done I knew I had to interview Tindi. The knowledge and maturity was just spilling out of him that we had to film a video;which will be releasing soon. Until then check out his interview below.

Interview/Sydney Nicole

DELIA DIVINE 2/18/2013

Sydney

Welcome to a new week everyone! To start off the week is an Interview with an Atlanta Stylist named Sydney Nicole. She is an assistant of celebrity stylist MiddleMan Fresh but this girl has dreams of her own. Her ambition and faith in Christ has bought her to where she is today and further. After witnessing how inspirational and determined she is I knew I wanted to interview her. Dive in to get to know Sydney and her work on this interview on LYFE.

LYFE:Who is Sydney Nicole?

Sydney:-I am a go getter, a hard worker, a God fearing woman, a wardrobe stylist, a visionary.I am everything God created me to be in this life.

LYFE:How did you get your start into fashion?

-Sydney:Modeling gave me my start with fashion. I like to say that my test shoot for Vibe Magazine was the first day of the rest of my life. That is when great things began to happen for me in the fashion world, I base it solely off of the people that I met and my resources.

LYFE:Why fashion?

Sydney:I am not great with words, at all. I find myself to be very shy, though I am the most extroverted person anyone could ever meet. Fashion helps me express my thoughts, my perspective, my feelings. Everything that has a word to describe it, I let fashion speak in its place.

LYFE:What is a day like for you?
Sydney:A day for me is HECTIC! I start my day with prayer and meditation I then check my e-mails, if time is available I may make me some breakfast which is rare but when I can I take full advantage. I then go to the showroom; Studio 11 where I am the assistant to a celebrity stylist there we meet and consult with clients, book jobs, etc if we don’t have a job to do already. After my work has been done at the showroom I focus on my own personal projects. I check my e-mails one final time I pray then prepare myself for another day. I can’t say my days are all the same due to the fact that things come up, schedules change, etc. It seems like a lot, well it is a lot but I love it.

Interview/ D.Love

DELIA DIVINE 1/30/2013

Hey LYFE readers, I'm bringing to you another interview. This time it's one on D.love of IClub. Remember the interview with Young Nova? Yea well they are in the same brand together and it's time you know who he is. Take a look at the interview.D.love is apart of a group called Fif Floor and is soon to release an album. Check out their latest video and interview below.

LYFE:How did you come up with the name D.Love?

D.LOVE: Very simple, my first initial and my last name. When I began rapping I tried to come up with something catchy that fit my personality. After a while I realized nothing is cooler or fits me more than my birth given name.

LYFE: You're apart of a group called "International Club" along with Young Nova; How did this brand come about?

D.LOVE:We basically wanted to merge the efforts of everyone in our movement. The Fif Floor was a group and Young Nova was a solo artist. Cav came up with the name International Club and the rest is history.

LYFE:In IClub there's a group called "Fif Floor" which you are apart of. What sound does the group have?

Our sound is a “futuristic vintage.” We take the elements that hip-hop was built on and make it more modern. Our tracks are smooth and soulful with a dab of fun.

LYFE:Who are the members and style taste?

D.LOVE:I’m D.Love My style is simple and soulful. I like basic beats with a lot energy. Cav style is a little more complex he uses a lot of breakdown. Doe is like a mix between the two but a little more up tempo. Our taste is urban and classy in one.

LYFE:What inspires the group to press on?

D.LOVE:Our love for music fashion and art. Also more importantly we all have similar goals in life coming from low-income backgrounds.

LYFE:What are the groups influences?

D.LOVE: MUSIC AND FASHION. Early 90s hip-hop for sure but we love it all pop, rap, r&b everything.

Interview /Young Nova

DELIA DIVINE 11/05/2012

The first time I saw Young Nova was at the Clayton State Decade of Fashion Show. He had a great sense of style which caught my attention. He wore a black button down shirt with a camo bowtie and fitted cap skinny jeans and jordans yes I remember ( not in a stalker way) but it was pretty dope so I decided to give him a listen. Then I said to myself hmm dude is pretty decent and wrote down his twitter, commended him on his performance. Some days after we made this photo shoot happen. Nova is cool dude who is driven and passionate about his craft. No Slacking going on on his end.He even gave me a exclusive track just for yall to listen too as a treat. Take a listen after the interview and follow him too of course.

LYFE:How did the name Young Nova come along?

NOVA: I stumbled upon the word Nova in the dictionary when I was looking up rap names, and I noticed it meant A star that suddenly becomes much brighter and gradually returns to its original brightness and I believe that describes me.

LYFE:Why did you choose rap out of other creative ventures?

NOVA: I chose rap because out of all the outlets I use to express myself Hip-Hop is what I love to do the most and I like the challenge of coming up with clever and creative metaphors and flows and that is always fun.Plus I'm pretty good at it,If I say so myself.lol.Just kidding.Music is also one of the biggest platforms there is to touch the masses and get a message out.

Interview/Joshua Martin

DELIA DIVINE 1/16/2012

Hi Readers. Welcome to a new week. Whatever your going to do this week or any obastacles you may come across. Just remember be strong and press on and continue to pursue your dreams.

Today I bring you another interview. This time its's with a young photographer who is really talented named Joshua Martin.

LYFE:Why did you choose photography?

JM:Photography became a growing passion for me. I chose photography for that reason, I couldn't stop learning more about it. I never saw myself as an artist, so this weird plan that God had changed my completely.

LYFE:What inspires you about the idea of taking photos?

JM:Inspiration comes from the story a photo can tell, or the way a photo can make a person think about a subject, a person, or event. The idea of making that image from the mind, to the eye and then through camera is a beautiful piece of art.

LYFE:What is your favorite type of photos to take?

JM:This has to be the hardest question someone can ask me. To be honest, don't have a favorite as of yet. I'm still in the process of finding what style really reflects me in my work.

LYFE:I see you make videos too; Is making videos harder than taking photos?

JM:Yes, doing video need more planning than photography, but having a photogenic frame of mind helps when framing different scenes. There are more technical issues to deal with in video.

LYFE:What are your dreams for your photography business?

JM:My goal is to own a multimedia business in the future. Photography, video, web, and illustration will be the core of everything we do.

LYFE:Lastly what would be your advice for those who would like to break into the photography business?

JM:My advice is this..if you don't have a passion and a goal. Photography isn't for you. It's not easy because everyone want to be or is a photographer. But if you do have the passion, be different and find your style.

Thanks Joshua For the great interview & to my readers, here is some of his great work..A video "I am Constance", and some photos he took.
