 at the same time growing the brand and maintaining our integrity in the
 market,” Titi stated on Miss Jessie’s site. “When we get letters and

The natural hair community has undoubtedly suffered a major loss today, and Titi, with all of her charisma and knack for innovation, will be greatly missed.
It would be recalled that just recently, popular Rhythm Fm radio presenter who was a relationship coach and anchor of ‘Sharing Life Issues’ during his lifetime, Charles Bruce Chukwuma, popularly known as Chaz B died after years of battling with Kidney related problems.
