We are an International Urban Culture Magazine that highlights and exposes urban culture for all of the beauty and grit it offers to society as well as giving talented individuals an arena to shine and display their talents like no other. Our team is a collective of creative individuals who combined their skills to create a magazine highlighting a range of subjects from Art to urban trends. We are the voice that will not be muted, the soapbox that will never be crushed, and the eyes that will never be blinded by the glitz and glam of success. We are professionals challenging the meaning of culture, art, music, fashion, sports, politics, etc., and how these topics are classified as urban. We will push the envelope on subjects, we will have a voice in previously polarized industries, we will make you avid readers, listeners, viewers, and most importantly, we will make you think. We are cultural urbanities; We are TUC Magazine.

Am I black enough? That is typically a question that comes up a lot of times within the black community. Whether it's fighting to overcome racial stereotypes, or overcompensating to prove your blackness due to the lack of pigmentation in your skin, we've all asked ourselves at one point or another if we were actually black enough?
In this week's edition of TUC Talk, not only do we play the "black card" game, but we also dissect why celebrity figures such as J.Cole and Colin Kaepernick overcompensate in proving their blackness. Are they obligated to? or have they been conditioned to by society?
Festival season is rapidly approaching but are they coming back too soon? And if we could book a celebrity boxing match between any two celebrities, who would be and why?
