Back when I still had VisualDirt on IG, I started a short-lived mag called SEVN with a partner in LA. We were 50/50βon paper. In reality, I did 99% of the work. I cast every model, shot every editorial, and built the whole thing from the ground up. I just needed a piggy bank to make it happen. My roommates at the time told me I didnβt need this guy, but I thought he could help grow it. Turns out, he was just trying to cut my equity, so after two issues, I walked.
That experience opened my eyes to wanting my own channelβone focused on hot women, money moves, and dope interviews. Itβs not like it hasnβt been done before (Playboy set the blueprint), but I love the idea of building my own world.
Recently, I got my hands on an old hard drive with all the SEVN files, and honestly, the work still holds up. So, Iβm sharing some of it hereβstarting with this editorial featuringMasumi . Enjoy!
