Choose your own Adventure Cypher

Choose your own Adventure Cypher

Dumbfoundead and Wax have taken a page from the “Choose your own Adventure” books with their latest cypher. Unlike most cyphers, where the next person is called out, anybody can participate in this cypher as many times as they want. Just make your own video that continues the story. Upload the video and post it as a video response to this video. Next Wednesday, the winner will be chosen and posted. That video will then become part of the official story and the cypher will continue from there. The cypher will continue for 8 weeks and end up with a ten episode long story.

BTW – every week the beat will change. Producers, if you’re interested in having your beat be a part of the cypher, send beats to beatsfordumb@gmail.com . If they use your beat, they will credit you in the video.

Dumbfoundead kicks off the cypher with Wax following up. Also check out other dumbfoundead x Wax collabos including Professional Rap, It’s On, and Hollyhoodrats.

Chloe Wang

Chloe Wang

The teenage singing phenomenon Chloe Wang burst on the China scene a year ago. The half Chinese American entertainer from Chicago created her first music video in Mandarin & English and performed live at a concert before 30,000 people seemingly overnight. She didn’t have much experience dancing and singing at the same time, but her determination brought her through.

Chloé was born to a Chinese father and an American mother. Although she was born and raised in the US, she always had an interest in learning about her Chinese roots. Chloé’s grandmother left Shanghai for America in 1957, and worked as the Head of International Fashion for the New York Times. Her curiosity and passion to learn about her Chinese heritage led her to China, where she is determined to start her music career.

Not only is she developing her career in China, but she’s also taking cracks at the US market. She’ll be one of the hosts along with Nick Cannon and Aaron Fresh on the upcoming show The Nightlife on Teen Nick. Look for her Thursday nights in August.

The problem is, she’s already being chased by a wealthy real estate tycoon whose willingness to employ her depends on her willingness to date him. Comedy ensues as the penniless clerk, in order to finance his pursuit of love, is forced to shack up with a very rich but very gay businessman looking for male companionship. Through it all, boy and girl are both tested as they find themselves in the same predicament – having to choose between true love and financial security. Faced with unexpected choices, will love prevail in the end?

Snorfin with Bobby Lee : Episode 2

Snorfin with Bobby Lee : Episode 2

In episode 2 of the game show Snorfin, an out-of-work Jersey Shore “Situation” contestant faces the wheel with comedian Bobby Lee and then takes the chance to Double Down. Lee puts contestants through a “little bit of hell” having each one spin a wheel of fate to face several options including eating, drinking or bobbing for some forbidden drink, food and/or fruit. If the contestant can “seem normal and fit in” (snorfin), they win! Can “The Situation” bob for the forbidden apple in a tub of “whale vagina discharge”? Eat a duck embryo? This is no trip to the tanning salon…
