                  |  | As a first 
                    time category in any of our issues, this section turned out 
                    pretty hot. DJs finally get a much needed shout out via our 
                    team writer Margaret-Mary; Senior Writer Dimeji Alara gets 
                    an exclusive interview with Channel O TV presenter Kabelo; 
                    We get a chance to talk with Comedian Tony Rock from UPN's 
                    "All of Us" in a very interesting Video Interview; 
                    by popular demand, fans of Afronut's Cartoons finally get 
                    a much-needed fix, this time he's using the famous Bible as 
                    an inspiration for laughter; We've all seen and loved her 
                    on HBO's Def Jam Poetry so as a prelude to a very exclusive 
                    interview, we spotlight Spoken Word Artist and Writer Bassey 
                    Ikpi; and last but not the least, a reflective article with 
                    photos on the display of African Art at the highly publicized 
                    De Young Museum of San Francisco. |
