We had the good fortune of connecting with Shell Boog and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Shell, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
See the thing is I don’t look at opportunities to make moves as risk I look at it as faith based behavior. When you believe in your vision you walk fully in it. You don’t look at situations as a gamble because you set yourself up to loose that way. I pray ask God to lead me and I move.
Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I’m a artist/videographer I’ve been doing music for as long as I can remember. It’s a way of life for me because I love it so much. I write all kinds of music I’ve been in a rock band, I’ve done hip hop, I’ve sung R&B music I’m pretty versatile. I have a album out now called Romeo it’s on all digital platforms. Where I am now in life was never easy everything was challenging but it made me the person I am today that I’m proud of. You fail and you learn that’s life. Shellboog is my brand I created in 2018 when I came out of the closet openly gay a year prior. It was a different feel to what I was representing. I feel like pretty transparent and comfortable about who I am as a person
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Hahahaha honestly I’m not sure how to answer that. I just moved to Virginia Beach I’m still learning the city
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I want to give a shout-out to my girl Kassaundra she’s is my backbone in life who loves me unconditionally and supports me whatever I want to do in life I love her so much. I want to shoutout my Pastor Mike Brown from JITB church for being my spiritual father and guiding me in my life when I need him for advice.
