Through his media brand, 21st Century Hustle, Muhammad has inspired ambitious minds
since the dawn of the millennium. And for his clients and colleagues, he is an indispensable
resource for everything unexpected and innovative in urban culture.
After earning a journalism degree from Florida A&M in 1996, Muhammad quickly climbed
the corporate ladder at Vibe, first as an intern and finally as Associate Ad Director of
Music and Entertainment. Through this post, he developed an influential list of contacts
including his mentor and musical icon, Quincy Jones.
When Muhammad wasn’t bolstering the Vibe brand and developing relationships in
the music, fashion and entertainment industries, he worked as a music supervisor with
Rainforest Films. His credits include the surprise box office smash, Stomp the Yard, the
highly regarded, The Gospel, and the cult classics, Trois 2: Pandora’s Box and Trois 3: The

the Platinum DVD Series: Beef 2, Beef 3, Letter to the President and The MC.
Muhammad’s visionary ventures continue with 21hustle.com, the online component of
21st Century Hustle magazine, and Hustlevision a digital production company.
Muhammad never stops making dreams come true for himself and others. “My Dad
always said to me, “Dream your life!” says Muhammad. “So I decided to live a Dream.”
A family man, Muhammad lives with his wife Mollita, an economic development manager,
and their three young children, in the Bedford-Stuyvesant area of Brooklyn.

Writing a memorial for Michael Jackson is similar to attempting to eat a whale. It is an enormous, daunting task. It is impossible. Where to begin? How to proceed?
When to end?
Our hearts are broken. We are overwhelmed with sadness. We will ALWAYS remember the extraordinary talent of the entertainer and the gentle soul of the man.
He was the King Of Pop. He was one of the greatest singers and entertainers this planet has ever seen. He was a wonderful humanitarian. He was a lovely person. He was loved by millions of fans worldwide.

i. n. kazar said… - "it's all good" but now that this phrase is so cliché i need to devise a substitute. Y'know, every month feels like a minute. And every month feels like an eon. The day that really sucks has all these instructional gems or even funny stories when you're done with it and look back on it. The girls a GREAT. They are reaching that age where I feel a certain sense of reassurance, that if something were to befall me, I know it would be "not easy" for them (15 & 21 yrs old) but I feel like they would do fine. They would be OK in this plane /wo me. And I've told them I believe that about them. Hmmmm ... still Flippin' around quite a bit between old biz and new (still tech) start-up, and also still thinkin' 'bout college, also serving as a key brainstormer/coordinator/project manager/tech manager of a friend's city council campaign. One of the things I"m trying to convince them to do is to set up ... a ... NING site.
"You're up, Mr. M"
good to hear from you, Ali!
