This is Yasin. Yasin came to New York City at the age of 17 with no friends, no family, and no stable roof over his head and nothing but the vision of being the "ultimate entertainer" to sustain himself through the trials thrown at him by the Big Apple. Within the short span of six years Yasin lived that dream as he executed record deals with the Roughriders and Virgin Records, starred in 7 music videos, was on MTV, wrote for Brandy, and modeled for 7th on 6th at Bryant Park. He triumphed in the face of adversity and for those of you with a dream to come to NYC, take heed in his story.
His walking staff holds deep symbolic meaning to him, bordering on spiritual transitions in life.
May he achieve all his dreams as he leaves this great city to chart new territories with his life!
