Tatyana’s Current State of the Union

MARCH 24th -31st, 2024

• The Cut wrote an article on Tulie Yaito. She’s a cool girl of the Internet. Check it out here.

• Maggi Simpkins created custom diamond Bose Ultra Open Earbuds for Kenzie Ziegler at Billboard’s Women In Music. These are so including stunning I’m willingly to pay a crazy amount of money to get my hands on a pair. The merging of the fashion and tech worlds. We love to see it!

• If you’re interested in being an influencer or learning more about the world of content creation read Kajabi’s State of Creators 2024 Report. 96% of creators earn less than $100K/year. Influencers are competing for brand deals but it’s not paying off. Read here.

• If you have the Coperni CD Player Swipe Bag you’re on my rob list.

• Laura Harrier thinks “It Girls” should go back to gatekeeping. The article starts off saying that Laura knows she’s on our moodboards. Lol she clocked me real bad in the first sentence. Is she wrong? Are we all sharing way too much information? No wonder Alexa Demie stays mysterious. Read her POV here.

• COWBOY CARTER IS OFFICIALLY OUT!

• There’s A LOT to process here, but one thing that’s for certain is Beyoncé is a master of artistry. Cowboy Carter tells a beautiful story of freedom, meticulously constructed and a love letter to the South. Five years in the making, it highlights Beyoncé's genius. The album evokes strong emotions, with some Gospel touches in many of the songs, like the opener, 'American Requiem.' Some of my personal favorites (though I'm sure this will change over time) include:

  • II Most Wanted: This is my favorite song on the album. In the weekend alone, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to it. Beyonce and Miley was the duo I never knew I needed. THE HARMONIES on this song are incredible and I get hard core feels every time I listen. Very Thelma & Louise vibes. This indeed should win Best Duo at next year’s Grammys. The song has already hit the Top 5 on Spotify & Apple Music. I know part of that reason is because of me.
