What's a man to do when his favorite type is new...
New year, new jewelry, new events, new experiences and new lady friends, of course

Just like a lifeguard, bodyguard and security guard, you just might benefit by hiring a flyguard to help protect your image, fashion sense and overall style reputation. My mentorship and apprenticeship program had successfully turned regular joes into trader joes, Lil willies into Big Willies and regular masculines into divine masculines. Inquire for more details about future mentorship opportunities, playa!
Isn't that fly? Hire Flyzel! Flyguard for hire!

*AFTER PARTY OF THE YEAR*
|
|
Usher's Met Gala After Party was utterly the ultimate party experience in NYC and of course your man, Flyzel has inside access and that fly on the wall POV for your visual pleasure! The highlight of the night for me was when Usher was getting off the DJ booth to greet the crowd (as the video above shows) and as he walked by, he looked at the fit, tapped me on the chest and acknowledged me with respect even though it was his party was the best part of the night. I couldn't help to think at that moment that Usher line "playa when you see me act like you know me..."
Reporting live from the social scene at the high-rise Times Square Edition hotel where the guests are A-listers, the champagne is cold and the vibe was on ten! Access is very limited, but luckily for you, your favorite flyguy/socialite, Flyzel, has exclusive access in the HOV fast "party" lane in NYC!
Straight off of his superstar appearance at the Superbowl, Usher did it again hosting his own star-studded party after the MetGala in NYC and it was a who's who in attendance! Yes, Flyzel was in attendance looking fly, yes, the women in attendance were PHAT (pretty hot and tempting), yes, the champagne was cold and yes, the vibes were on 10!
For all of you Usher fans out there, you're welcome!

Welcome to Flyzel's social world of events, men's fashion & modeling, celebrities and entertainment !
Meet the Brooklyn Bachelor, aka Don Juan Demarrco, aka Rooftop Ronnie, aka Chandon Kwam, aka Zaddy in the Caddy, aka Playa, but whatever you call him one thing you can't call him boring!
I heard they said good things happen in 3's...

Listen, if the product or service provided is worth the experience your selling then the crowd will come out, pay money, pay attention, spend time and expend energy to be entertained from the playas on the playing field, court, ice, stage or in this example on the runway. The people don't want to see ordinary, they want to be wowed, they want to see magic, they want the extraordinary! Regular Joes need not apply for this position! You gotta have balls, confidence, courage, a flare of the dramatics and the desire to be great to perform on stage or the playing the field and be prepared to give everyone a show! Don't worry about doing too much. That's exactly what they want and will pay for. Yes, practice being humble but do the most too!

Thoughts from the Brooklyn Bachelor
Want to know what's on a playa's mind? Sponsorships! Yup, cause in Flyzel's social world, there's an either/or dynamic that you must be aware of so you know where you stand in all of your relationship dynamics in your overall life: You're either a sponsor or sponsored, a employee or a employer, a odor or a fragrance, a onlooker or a participant, a player or a fan! Remember, fans will pay a premium to watch the players and the playas create, showoff and perform the most extraordinary feats on the court, field of play or any other platform just for the sake of being entertained. People are fans of talent, a flare of dramatics and they will pay a premium to access it so whether you're a fan, onlooker, bystander, employee or sponsored, there is still a cost incurred to getting access because access is key! Anyway you slice it, you have to pay the cost to be the boss and have it your way, so get use to paying or sponsoring the show. There is usually a cost that goes into maintaining relationships, recreation experiences, leisure time but nothing is really "free". There are very few things in the world that are free, especially in an expensive modernize country like the United States. Now, if you want this free game it's going to cost you but the only cost you have to pay is attention if you want to get your money's worth. Just don't do anything dumb that's going to cost you dearly in the short or long run. Allow the Brooklyn Bachelor aka Flyzel aka Chandon to give you access into the "3rd lane", life lessons in-between time and show you something a little different than what you're use to seeing in the NYC nightlife and event space. Life is to be enjoyed to the limit! Let Flyzel show you how to do this, son!

What is a Divine Masculine?
A brief explanation of the nature of a true Divine Masculine
The first steps on your journey from transitioning from a masculine to a Divine masculine starts first with the realization, accountability and acceptance of your divine and life's purpose to lead you on the path towards righteous. After you come to the understanding of your divine purpose you must begin operating in your higher self and start moving away from fleshly, toxic and worldly desires to live in accordance with being on your divine purpose doing God's work and being a chosen one. Remember, one should "be in the world and not of it", so once you are rooted in your higher self, living in your divine purpose, consistently exercising self-control and becoming spiritually awakened then the pathway of achieving self -actualization can occur which fulfills, maximize and unlock your God-giving, divine potential and talents bestowed to you by the Most High to contribute to the completion of the Great work!. This is what separates those chosen, few divine masculines/feminines from the overwhelming large, majority of average masculine or feminine on Earth because this calling is not an easy one to bear at all because most likely being a empath you're more sensitive than the average person concerning your emotions and psych to the daily issues, affairs and machinations of the world. Divine beings have a much higher sense of accountability, responsibility and duty to one's self, family, community and most importantly, obedience and obligation to one's creator than the average person.
The divine counterpart story is a very ancient, spiritual concept formed from two halves of one divine soul: the divine masculine/divine feminine twin flame principle. The Divine Masculine is generally and initially looked at strictly from the male point of view. However, the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energies are interchangeable and not necessarily gender-base or absolute. Both genders can personify, access and embody the oppose gender's energies to complete a purpose and/or conduct day to day tasks, activities , job duties and career responsibilities when necessary but balancing the two energies is the real goal. Each divine gender has their own unique aspects that are distinctive and individualistic onto themselves which are equally valuable in their own right. Ultimately, the goal is to maintain and carry out a healthy and workable balance with your higher self between the two energies as opposed to operating within your lower self and being disproportionate and overly unbalanced in your life.
As far as masculine males are concerned, all men must understand they will struggle with but eventually need to conquer various aspects of life for the purpose of their own growth and development. These aspects are strength, decisiveness, consistency and maturity. Conversely, all women will also struggle with these same issues but their indirect need for men to directly deal with, overcome and conquer these issues is a complex but necessary dynamic within their union that must be understood. The amount of discipline, consistency, strength, healing, empathy, obedience, decisive action-based thinking, love, sacrifice and honor it takes throughout the years to transform into a Divine being is long, hard and grueling but it is the most impactful experience beyond your wildest dreams.
The ancient symbol of the Yin and Yang is the most popular example of the principle of the divine masculine and divine feminine energies working in harmony with each other. Even though both contrast and are very different they both also operate, compliment and coexist together within the same power dynamic to maintain a harmonious union as a whole for the greater good of the world and advance towards the completion of the great work. Awaken the divine vibration in you!

Dating experiences in modern times
Face it people, dating for most of us in today's world in 2023 is a Sh#tshow with some saying the dating pool has pee in it lol! Most people are looking for their "person" in the dating market but time and time again, a lot of us are running into the wrong person and it seems like never ending struggle to find love in today's love market. The name of the game is making sure you're available, not lead anybody on because the best ability is availability, making solid connections and bonds with those who make the cut and finding true love at the end of it all. In a dating world where swiping right may lead you to the desired results and action you are looking for, you need to have a solid plan because leaving things up to chance is not very fly? You need to have a plan, Playa! Flyzel can help you with that!
On another social note, Are you trying to find genuine in people nowadays? Do you have a boring or nonexistence social or afterwork life and are looking for something different? Are you going to the same old, regular bars, same venues and hangout spots in your part of the city? What if I told you there were better dating spots, rooftop bars and events in your city? All you need is access to new and better options for yourself? Flyzel can help you with that!
Well, there's a cheat code out here that gives you access to all the excitement and razzle dazzle of the entertainment event space in NYC and luckily our favorite, stylish socialite is here to provide us with exclusive photos and video footage of all the happenings in the social scene and give his POV as the flyest fly on the wall in the NYC afterwork, event space! You can thank Flyzel for that!

It'ssssssssss Flyzel aka the Brooklyn Bachelor! What up fly guys and gals? Listen, being fly isn't really about what you have on or what type of accessories or jewelry you rock. Happiness is more of an inside job but it definitely helps to maintain an attitude of gratitude, confidence and a type of energy that is infectious, worthy to be admired and contagious. On the opposite end of the spectrum, you can be a fraud, liar, exhibit trifling and lowlife behavior and disliked among one's peers but wear the finest garments, have material possessions and sport the latest fashion trends, but still be considered a well-dressed piece of crap! In life one's character defines you and is what ultimately matters so, as my mother use to say concerning high character, you're either a fragrance or an odor! Flyzel just so happens to smell like Louis Vuitton's Les Sables Roses or Tom Ford's Oud Wood! These are must haves for every man, by the way!
The 50th birthday milestones
The 50th club!!!
Today's 50 somethings are not on par with our grandparents or even our parents from yesteryear, number 1. Some 50 somethings out here look great, some looking 10 to 15 years younger than what age they actually are! Number 2, as celebrity stylist June Ambrose, very well stated in an Vogue article on her pending 50th birthday bash/party back in June 2021 "the biggest misconception is that 50-year-olds are old, that they're not relevant and they have to live in a mature state of mind...this isn't true!" "You're as young as you feel!" So with that said, let's get these party started and give respect where respect is due! Speaking of parties, 2022 year started off as a milestone year because several of my friends, associates and overall peer group are turning 50th this year and next couple of years, so as a way of acknowledging those who will be reaching that golden 50th over the next year this site will be highlighting all of the parties, fashion, good people and good times celebrating their golden jubilee 50th birthdays including Hip Hop and ME!

Flyzel stays smelling like fresh off a runway!
Welcome to the Fast Lane or "the Lane", as we like to call it, in the exclusive event space, social scene where the ultimate nightlife experience happens every single night in NYC. Whether it's profiling a fashion show I'm in, bouncing from event to event around the city or running into your favorite celebrity, this site and IG page (chandon_kwam) are for those interested in a "fly on the wall" experience to the inside life of the world of the complimentary, exclusive night life in the city that never sleeps! Admission in the lane is free but rest assured, you still have to pay attention and earn your social currency and value so you can learn how to maneuver, network and take advantage of the "lane" like a seasoned urban socialite needs to.
In the social scene if you're good company you'll always keep good company around you, Playa!
|
Does Flyzel have your attention now, Playa?
Now that I have your attention, let me put you on to some game! Listen, you don't have to be rich to enjoy the spoils of life, luxury and leisure but one thing you do need is access. Access is what people use to acquire the experiences, possessions and assets to secure a better life for themselves. There's an old saying out there that "your character can get you into places your money can't, so being solid with your word and mature in behavior will take you a long way. Remember, you have be invited or have access into this world, there is no admission, Playa!

Introducing the newest character on the Flyzel Washington show
Flyzel, Flyguard
|
|
Imagine your own personal Flyguard
Well, meet the fly guy himself!
Flyzel, Flyguard for hire!
Most people need, want and require protections, guarantees and insurance to feel at ease that their possessions will be safe and secure due to any misfortune or in the event of any unfortunate catastrophes. The lives of your love ones and personal property need safeguards that will insure the safety and security of life, limbs and assets! Lifeguards, armguards and bodyguards are employed to shield and protect people and their valuables from death, bodily harm or any type of major loss due to theft. Well, in the same regard, you might want to consider hiring your own personal FLYGUARD! Never heard of a Flyguard? That's cause I made it up lol. Well, let me explain and introduce to you to a top-notch Flyguard!
See, a Flyguard helps you to improve your own fashion style and confidence not to mention the flare that fits with your personality and fixes any insecurities or low self-esteem concerning any current poor wardrobe options in your closet. It takes time building up your wardrobe to become a top-notch dresser but it doesn't happen without help or a thirst for wanting to be better. Some young men are taught by their fathers, grandfathers, uncles about what style options to implore for certain occasions or events but some were not! Mentors, personal stylists, and style consultants are the next group of style agents who can help you with any fashion shortfalls you may have and FYI needs. Some get their knowledge from style magazines like GQ, Esquire and Primer or watch their favorite rap, movie, or T.V. stars kill it on any red carpet or premier event. Some learn by hanging out with their stylish friends and acquittances and get style advice that way. Ultimately, those men who fall short getting the proper education of the ABC's of fashion are at a loss which can lead to missed opportunities to improve their knowledge base. This lack of education leads to inept fashion choices and options which can lead to ridicule and you get clowned by your peers which one one wants. There is an adage in the fashion world to bring home my point, "fashion is what you buy but style is what you do with it'! So, as a Flyguard, my ultimate role is to protect your fly, fellas! I want to make sure you're looking & feeling your best, upgrade your appearance/closet and help you maintain an overall positive self-image for yourself.
Now you know what a Flyguard is!
Isn't that's fly?
That's Flyzel, Flyguard for hire!
Profiles of "Classic men"
Definition: Classic- Judged over a period of time to be of the highest quality and outstanding of its kind.
In today's current society people are searching for something that use to be, something that seems to be lost, something that seems to be a thing of the past and a relic from yesteryear. This "phenomenon" hasn't gone anywhere though but in today's world people, maybe because of the changing of the times, the majority of people think this archetype faded away from memory. What I'm I talking about you say? Let me give a couple of words to describe what I'm alluding to: Epitome and Quintessential. Have you figured it out yet? Well, let me give you a bun and hotdog so you can ketchup lol Let's continue with their definitions. The definition of quintessential is - Representing the most perfect or typical example of a quality or class and Epitome is- A person or thing is a perfect example of a particular quality or type. The cat should be out the bag by now because, in some circles, he is referred to as "cat daddy". Most would refer to this kind of man as a refined man, a classic man, a man of distinction, a cultured man, a man of honor or simply a gentleman. Today's world is in need of more classic men, more honorable men, men who are exemplars of excellence, cultured and quintessential models of manhood. We all know, in our circles of influence, examples of these men whose timeless style separate them from the crowd and who dress to impress for any occasion and make great impressions wherever they went. Their words matched and aligned with their actions and behavior to go along with their impeccable style of dress. Men who are well read and cultured, who could command a room and who lived by the golden rule. Yes, men like your smooth grandfather, godfather, father, uncle or your high school teacher, church preacher, or best friend's father who was the best dressed man on the block. They are out here, they still exist and they are still on the scene! Yesteryears refined man is still today refined man, we just got a bit older, a tad wiser and we are aging gracefully like fine wine. It is now up to us "classic men" to reteach and reintroduce ourselves to the world because refined, masculine, bold, confident, impressionable and fashionable men are timeless, necessary and never truly go out of style!

"Everyday is a fashion show and the sidewalk is your runway"
Introducing Flyzel, fashion model
|
|
Let's not kid ourselves folks, he's a medium model not a supermodel!
|
|
Models do's and don'ts at a fashion show and in life, period!
I. Don't be late to your "Call Time" at the show, Models!
Models, it is important not to be late to a fashion show or a photoshoot, but this is for anyone in general! Disrespect comes in many forms and not respecting one's time is one of them! As the saying goes "if you're early you're on time, if you're on time your late and if you're late you're fired". There is no such thing as on time. You're either early or late.
|
|
II. Fashion models, role models and model citizens need to know 4 important things:
Invest in yourself first, it's always the right time to do the right thing, live by the golden rule and confidence is absolutely everything!
|
|
|
|
|
|
III. Models must be always working out, eating right and engaging in self and mental care.
"If you stay ready you don't have to get ready"
You never know when an opportunity will come your way so it behooves you to stay fit and ready. You may not have enough time to go on a crash diet to lose some pounds or to make the target weight on your comp card for a photoshoot or a show, so staying ready is to your advantage. As the saying goes, "if you stay ready you don't have to get ready."
|
|
|
|
|
IV. Models know the importance of having a wide variety of wardrobe options
Whether it's going to a summer rooftop party, attending an after-work company event, a spontaneous dinner date, a Fall overnight road trip, a late minute fashion show invite, a Spring walk to see the Cherry blossoms or a winter weekend getaway, you must have a variety of clothing options for all 4 seasons.
|
|
|
|
I may be called a lot of things but one thing you can't call me is boring, Playa!

The ability to code switch is an important skill for men of color to master , especially if your'e tying to make yourself a better and more well-rounded person. The ability to navigate in different settings sets you apart from the guy that is one-dimensional and stuck in one mode of self. It's actually "a form of survival"!

The Flyzel Washington Experience
So you get a little bit of everything when you tune into the Flyzel Washington show: You get previews of the different IG shows and series, you get a socialite's birdseye view of events all over NYC, you get footage runway fashion show appearances and luxury coat lookbooks, luxury coat model, a role model/mentor for the youth, physical fitness vids and other competitive sporting events, you get comedy (the tacomeat chronicles), there's champagne & sparkling wine tatsings, updates & community service projects from H.I.M. Inc, a fly on the wall profile of social and rooftop events in the "lane" and other fly adventures from the one and only, Flyzel!!! Come and check out your man!
Every man of mystery has an alter ego or another side of him that is totally different from his day job persona. In popular culture lore you have, for example T' Challa aka Black Panther, Clark Kent aka Superman, Tony Stark aka Ironman, Bruce Wayne aka Batman and Jerome from Martin lol. In real life you have Nasir Jones aka Nas, Shawn Carter aka Jay Z, Dwayne Jonhson aka the Rock, Belcalis Almanzar aka Cardi B, just to name a few, so Mr. Christian or Flyzel fits that same mold. Some people call him Captain save a bro due to his roots as an educator, mentor, counselor and child advocate for school-age children throughout his career. But he has other pursuits in his life and enjoys being a man of leisure, a competitor, a business man and an entertainer among of things. Flyzel likes to think of himself as well-rounded so wears other hats too:

NYC ENTERTAINMENT/EVENTS/NIGHTLIFE
|
|
|
|
The life of a event and after work party-goer is thrilling, adventurous, amazing and exciting especially if you're in any of the largest metropolitan cities in the US and around the world. The best cities to party in are NYC, Atlanta, Miami, LA, Paris, London, just to name a few! And if you know the right people and conduct yourself in the right way and manner then the sky's the limit! Don't be surprised if you're invited to some exclusive events and parties in anyone of the cities mentioned every single day in what we called "The lane". So whenever your friends come into your town and they are looking for something fun and exciting to do, you are privy to a a whole lineup and options of events for your peoples to have a memorable and kickass night! This lane isn't for everybody but for those who can hang, keep up and like action then this life is for you! For us socialites who are regulars in the lane, we continuously have to rsvp, follow-up and network for days, weeks and even months to stay in the loop for these daily events all over the city.
Maintaining relationships is also very important to staying afloat and thriving in this social environment. Extroverts, social butterflies and socially-engaging people usually find it easier to navigate these social waters more easily than others but anyone can flourish in these environments. Putting yourself out there, being comfortable being uncomfortable helps you grow and sharpens your individuals social skills for your better good. Social currency is everything! The learning curve is short so you have to think on your feet, improvise and finesse situations to make it work for you.
Typical conversations when you're in the event lane! Once you get a taste of this kind of social life you might be hooked, playa! Trust your man, Flyzel, in these matters! All you need is a taste and it's over!
Fashionably yours,
Flyzel

You know the vibes!!!
Sometimes you got to sit back, chill and feel the vibe!
Good Vibes only
You can say a lot of things about Flyzel but one thing you can't say is that he's boring! Who doesn't like to be around positive vibes and what not and everyone likes to catch a dope vibe when they are out and about in social gatherings, so being a high-vibing person is what it's about! I'm not going to hold you, it takes years to build one's character to the point where your decisions are based. fortified and rooted in the teachings of mentors, coaches, big homies, parents or grandparents, school teachers, spiritual teachers, company or community leaders or even lessons from scriptural books and self-help books, My mother use to always say "son, you're either a odor or a fragrance concerning your character" and it is so true. Your character plays an important of one being a low-vibing or high-vibing person and one's energy says a lot when you're around people in social settings. In most settings, your social graces and decorum is the currency by which people value you and your company and in some cases, it's the price that gives you access to doors that are priceless for entry. Mom use to also say "your character can get you into doors that your money cannot" so again, it is important to always work on yourself, improve yourself and stay positive and high-vibing! YKTV

Social currency
Listen, most people think it takes a lot to be the flyest person in the room but, believe it or not, being fly doesn't really cost a lot in terms of social currency! The cost is having high character, patience, creativity, resourcefulness, respect, insight, courage, your own individual style and most important, confidence! Just as my mom use to always tell me "It's your character that's going to get you into places your money can't, son"! Remember, some people are so poor all they have is money! Poor in spirit, poor in humanity, poor in esteem and poor in energy & vibe. Money cannot buy class, decorum and tact! High character, being honorable and genuine trumps a poor attitude, character and demeanor, pun intended! It's the things that you do when no one is looking that determines if you're fly or not and who you are as a person! You can hide who you are from people but you cant hide from yourself because everywhere you go there you are. Example, if you step in dog doo doo as you're walking you will be carrying that smell with you wherever you go unless you clean yourself up. Well, it's the same thing in how you live your life! Staying with the doo doo reference lol you can be a POS with expensive clothes and jewelry but at the end of the day when the clothes and jewelry comes off you're still a piece of sh#t! Right? Either your a fragrance or you're an odor in life! So trust your man, Flyzel aka Chandon, in these matters of life. I've been fly for a long time, playa. Let me show you how to do this sun! I call you sun cause you shine like one! Believe that! Welcome to the site! Wipe your feet and take your hat off at the door first, playa!

Dress how you want to be addressed?
In an article in March 2012, Men's Health magazine included some recent research that introduced the term, "enclothed cognition" or the influence your clothes can have on the way you think, feel and behave. I still remember when I was given my first power suit straight after graduating college from my mentor. I liked it so much that I wore it twice a week, once on Monday and again on Friday and I could remember how distinguished I felt in that navy blue, pinstripe suit! My mentor told me how important it was for me to have a staple blue suit entering into the professional workplace and boy, did I need it! Workplace attire at first was a bit of a struggle because I didn't have enough work clothes to have a comfortable rotation of pants, button down shirt, ties and suits to wear! Well, in time I built up my wardrobe and took pride in making sure I dressed for success and looked presentable Every. Single. Day! Success is a mindset and clothes allows one to express their professional style while at the office or workplace.
Read the article below!
"Itching for a promotion? Try stepping up your wardrobe. New research from Northwestern University reveals that what you wear could affect how you think and even perform. Researchers found that students wearing white lab coats performed better on cognitive tests than those who didn't sport any jackets. The phenomenon is called "enclothed cognition," or the influence your clothes can have on the way you think, feel, and behave, says study coauthor Hajo Adam, Ph.D., a management professor at Northwestern."Many pieces of clothing carry a symbolic meaning. For example, the robe of a judge signifies justice, an expensive suit signifies power, and a white lab coat signifies a scientific focus and attentiveness," Adam says. "Our research indicates that wearing clothes exerts influence through this symbolic meaning."While Mark Twain may have been on to something when he said clothes make the man, enclothed cognition only seems to work if you hold your threads in high esteem. (It's less about your personal level of confidence than the confidence, power, and skill set you associate with particular apparel.) "For example, if someone feels phony wearing a suit, then the symbolic meaning of the suit will carry a negative weight for that person," says Adam. Want to make a million bucks? Then start dressing like it. Make these wardrobe upgrades to reap the benefits of enclothed cognition.
At Work: Suit Up
Since people associate wearing a suit and tie with hard work and professional conduct, Adam suggests that "wearing such attire increases performance at work." It's true: You can earn at least 5 percent more than the other guy simply by looking sharp, according to a study in the American Economic Review. Clothes sell confidence, so keep a style kit in your cubicle. Your office-closet musts: A blazer, crisp shirt, matching tie, and gleaming pair of shoes. (Don't forget the right pair of skivvies, too.)
At the Gym: Chuck Your College Sweatshirt
Revamp your gym attire, stat. "If wearing great fitness gear is associated with great athletic performance, we predict it would make people work out harder and maybe even perform better at competitive events," Adam says. Read these 10 ways to look stylish at the gym.
At Home: Ditch Your PJs
Keep things classy even when nobody's looking. If you've got a phone interview for a potential new job, liken it to a theatrical performance, which requires actors to wear a uniform or dress the part of a character, advises Amanda Visek, Ph.D., an assistant exercise science professor at George Washington University. "Dressing the part is more likely to ensure that you're in the appropriate mindset to perform well. Wearing pajamas elicits thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are associated with kicking back and relaxing, not high performance and confidence," she says."

What's a Socialite?
Socialite: A person who spends a significant amount of time in social circles and is fond of attending various fashionable social gatherings, parties and events. Now, don't confuse me with famous socialites with last names like Hilton, Rothschild or Vanderbilt but you don't have to be famous to move like a socialite.
Listen, in this world I have learned it's about having access to doors and things you may want or need to make life much better for yourself. In a speech on C-Span years ago, Jesse Jackson commented that African Americans, on average, "have acquired money, education and property but the one thing that has alluded them to this day has been access". I never forgot that statement. Remember, the operative word here is access! There is no simple answer here but we already know some of the obvious reasons and social ills in western countries, but you thing is clear, playing the game, being clear & focus on what you want and worrying about what you can control increases your odds for gaining access.
Access is acquired by developing and maintaining relationships, being sociable & gregarious in these social spaces, evolving your code-switching and gift of gab skills and dressing the part and play your part without playing yourself! Get it? Got it? Good! Now for clarity, I am not the son of an billionaire or the heir of an oil tycoon, so i didn't my cereal with silver spoons but just because you're not born into an situation doesn't mean you can work, earn and finesse your way into the situation you ultimately want! In socialites circles, you can meet all types of people from all walks of life but the exciting part of having access is meeting your favorite celebrities and entertainers!

.FLYZEL
Either from an early age you probably were told that you had "it" or you knew on your own you had something which stood you out from the rest of the pack or group? In the modeling, acting or sports world you always hear people saying "he or she has it" and that "it" factor is what separates you from the rest of the crowd. You may have heard this from your parents or their friends and their references of how cute, charismatic or charming you were, your pops saying you're a chip off the old block, or coaches, teachers, & mentors commenting that you had something special or simply, the girls on the block that liked you and when it was time to play games like run, catch and kiss they chased you first! But to that particular guy out there that always knew they had something that any ol body could not buy or duplicate and, like me, you knew you had something that was special but you couldn't put your finger on it precisely at that time, then this website may be for you! Whether it was in sports, your intellect prowess, gift of speech, leadership qualities, your looks, physical built, fashion sense or whatever, but without the right tutelage, guidance, training, coaching, mentorship or upbringing either by a father, uncle, older brother or cousin, grandfather or coach, neighbor or OG, your potential or "it" factor may not have been fully developed or realized. Young males need adult guidance for the betterment of their own growth and development, so it is imperative to learn underneath someone or preferably all of these men to be the absolute best version of yourselves and realize your full potential and to learn and gain wisdom, knowledge and understanding about the world and also game. Thus, this is why I created this website. This website is first and foremost dedicated to the teenage, young adult and middle-aged men in the U.S. and across the world who want to became the best version of themselves, who need a little push, who wants to be more confident & happy and for those who want to learn how to realize and maximize their full potential before they leave this earth. Remember, all of us know our date of birth but none of us know our date of death, so everybody is on the clock to leave your imprint and legacy on this earth for all to remember. Personally, I want to lead by example and show men that it's possible to be fly as hell, casket sharp, dapper and too smooth for your own good and again, be the best version of themselves. However, to be your best version you gotta do the work! There's no other way around it! The type of men we need to become must be honorable men ("Iron sharpens iron") and to "hold the line" in terms of protecting and developing our masculinity as well as our emotional, mental and physical state/health and be respectful and be good to each other and take care & show love to each other and look extremely fly in the process! Being the best version of yourself is just not a cliche, you have to be about it, look it and walk it, so you can talk it and not be fake and just all talk. Chasing excellence takes work, fam! It takes dedication! It takes setting goals! It takes grit! It takes vision! Unfortunately, this is where over 50% of men jump ship, fall off and fall short from becoming the best version of themselves and reaching their own potential. Now being average, corny and regular is fine and okay (I guess) and everyone can't be great (this is why the stands or seats of sports stadiums/courts/rinks/fields, concert stages and Broadway shows are full of these types: [spectators] or those who looking at the men and women who have actually bust their asses to continuously work to be the best versions of themselves but i digress); but one thing is clear: everyone has the potential to be great! The hard work, drive, vision and the "it" factor is what separates the boys from the men and the average and ordinary from the outstanding and extraordinary. Conversely, women too can learn , study and understand how the male psyche thinks, our modus operandi and how we operate on a daily basis! "Being Fly" is a slang term that is used loosely but there are levels to its use. It's a look! It's a way of being! It's looking, feeling and acting your best so to maintain peak desirability, peace of mind, a good reputation and image, decrease the spirit of fear and to be the type of men our communities and households need in today's ever changing world! Now that's fly! This website will focus, among other things, on the 4 things all will men struggle with throughout their lives: Strength, Decisiveness, Consistency and Maturity. Conversely, these are the 4 things that women need, want and desire from men to thrive in their own societies, communities and household. Moreover, Flyzel wants to show young men how to be well-rounded, understanding the benefits of code-switching to successfully navigate society to their benefit, as well as in corporate and professional work settings and environments. As Black and Brown men, we are in a situation where we have to deal with racism almost on a daily basis and knowing how to navigate within this society is one of the foremost must haves you will need to know to maintain your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual sanity. Lastly, men need to learn and know how to dress and look the part as well as developing their character because like my mother use to always say to me "your character can take you and get you in places your money cannot". Get it? Got it? Good!

Be the best version of yourselves!
You must strive to become the best version of yourselves guys. It's as simple as that! This phrase is becoming more and more popular and cliche' but it is very true! The goal for me is to maintain a healthy look, age gracefully, be vibrant, easy on the eyes and overall in the best possible shape & condition, mind, body and soul or simply the best version of myself, period! We only get one life and one of the best kept secrets of life is to withstand the test of time. You must withstand burnout and not let it be noticeable on you on the inside and outside. Your deeds and reputation will serve you well on this earth and they will manifest itself in your life from the inside to your outside good, bad or indifferent. You can't hide from yourself because wherever you go there you are. The worst person to lie to is yourself! You control the narrative or someone else will! It's attainable, stop being lazy son!
Circa 2014 when Flyzel Washington wished apon a star and soon after became one!
There's suppose to be 3 really's on the shirt but whatever!
PSA: Don't be this dude! Stuck in the past, undesirable and past his prime. Jerome is not the type of playa to be!
The goal is not to be Jerome! As we mature fully going into middle adulthood and older adulthood, settling into our 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's we must do everything in our power not to turn or phase into Jerome "playa from the Himalayas". This is the definition of someone hitting the wall! Father time is undefeated! Say no to Jerome fellas because that's kind of not a good looking the long run and this is the dude that gets clown by everyone at the club, bar or event! He thinks he is killing the game but the joke is on him and everyone knows it but him. So, no outdated game, gear or clothes, no outdated hair styles, no Brut, Stenson or any outdated colognes, no outdated jewelry (No Mercedes benz logo chains) and for God sake, get your asses in the gym, jog or workout cause this sloppy looking image is not the move. Our current American lifestyle is contributing and causing all types of bodliy aliments like obesity, hypertension, high blood pressure and heart disease to name a few so it's up to us to have self-control and self determination to eat to live and not live to eat. If I can do it, then you can do it! Lets get it!!! Remember, one of the secrets of life is standing the test of time and looking at the long term projection of one's life!

WASHINGTON
See, everyone has heard of the first U.S. President George Washington and of course actor Denzel Washington and most people have heard of his son, John David Washington (whom I kind of resemble from what people tell me), but very few people have heard of your man, Flyzel Washington (no relation but figuratively these are my brothers lol)! In his own head, Flyzel thinks he belongs in the same conversation with all of these other famous Washingtons in history and pop culture. To name a few famous Washingtons we have Denzel Washington, Booker T. Washington, Isiash Washington, Harold Washington, Kenny Washington, Dwayne "Pearl" Washington and Bartender Issac Washington from the Love Boat lol! Now, I know what you're thinking "Who the hell is a Flyzel Washington in relation to them? Who let him up in this established? Whose man is this? Can someone get security?" Listen and hear me out! Let's start with the history of the Washington surname!
So, for your information, according to the 2,000 U.S. census, the blackest surname in America is Washington. www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2011/02/how-washington-became-the-blackest-name-in-america/71511/
Of all the 163,036 people with the last name Washington, 90% were African-Americans. So apparently since 1865, the surname Washington has become a common and very popular name among African-Americans in the United States over the last 150 years. Before African-Americans officially were granted freedom from chattel slavery and given the status of freedmen and citizens by the 13th and 14th amendments, they did not have the distinction and honor of adopting and/or passing down last names or surnames due to the repressive nature of being the owned by their slave masters/owners. Thus, African Americans, the young and old, were called and referred to as "boy", "nigger", and "whench", so African people subjected to slavery had to take om the surnames of their oppressive masters because, by law, they were considered property until 1965 (even though black people are still referred to as niggers to this very day, but that is another story for another time).
So, when newly freed African Americans became citizens due to the 14th amendments in 1868 they had the chance to shake off their slave surnames and choose dignified last names that reflected not only high character and esteem but also people of distinction, significance and importance in society and history. Some choose to kept their slave last names and other did not. Thus, last names like Freemen, Jackson, Jefferson, Smith and Washington which were men of perceived distinction during the 1700 and 1800's were very commonly chosen surnames by African-Americans then and today, so it is no surprise that it is so common and frequent to know someone in the African-American community with the aforementioned surnames. Now you know what time it is but don't get it twisted, Flyzel is worth more than a dollar bill with Washington's face on it. Frankly speaking, we keep it buck $100 around here, playa!

Brooklyn's lowkey Superhero
CAPTAIN SAVE A BRO!
Flyzel
Who is this Flyzel you speak of? Man of mystery? Playa from the Himalayas? Sometimes known to be followed by your favorite dime piece on IG or typically on your favorite cutie's most wanted list? Well, hearsay has it he lurks in the cut sometimes on Nostrand Ave, Madison Ave or Market Street on these Brooklyn, Manhattan or Newark streets. But Flyzel also goes by another moniker: Captain save a bro! Saving our young brothers out here from the foolishness, traps and stress that their enemies, frienemies and certain principalities put out here looking to do harm to them in these NYC/NJ streets and schools on a daily basis because evil takes no days off. See, during the day he's in normal, grown man form and serves as a entrepreneur, teacher, tutor and mentor affectionately known as Mr. Washington educating and mentoring the students in NYC and New Jersey respectively. He has a reputation of always being on time, professionally dressed, intellectually astute, fearless and tirelessly dedicated to the students, schools and organizations he serves and loves, being that role model that the children, teenagers and young adults, specifically the young men so desperately need and desire today! He lives by the motto: "Be the person that you needed when you were young". Now, after work typically after sunset and into the evening, Mr. Washington turns inconspicuously into Flyzel: a handsome, charismatic, fly guy, ready to mix, mingle, flirt converse with the motley crew of interesting characters of the NYC nightlife. Equipped with his killer smile, gift of gab, well-dressed, model-like demeanor and pleasant disposition, Flyzel stays ready to take on everything and anything that the night has to offer, good, bad or indifferent. Moreover, a superhero sometimes needs super companions to save the day and his super friends are usually with him to make sure everything flows smoothly and correctly at the parties and/or events they attend. In certain cases, when the occasion calls for it, he into Captain save a Ms! Occasionally a super realro (real-hero) needs super fine, lady friends to salvage the day or evening from the ordinary, mundane and boring aspects of everyday life that can drive us crazy or bored to death! WORD TO THE WISE: When you make that call to captain save a Ms just make sure you have a real cute outfit, a cute smile and a cute shape when I show up cause if I don't like what I see I ain't saving shit lol So when you see that signal in the sky at night or that black fist in the air or the shadow figure of a flyguy during the day and you need someone to fight off and beat up boredom, or you want a rent a boo to show off to your homegirls at a sorority dinner dance or an ascort to the Mayor's or Governor's Ball to impress, flirt and match your fly or you're just hungry for some good loving, good conversation, good company and any ol dude just can't cut it then call on your man, Flyzel to save the day, the hour or the moment! Get it? Got it? Good!!!
Stay Golden!
Every superhero needs military or high-quality grade gear, equipment & tools of the trade to be successful in fighting crime and in Flyzel's case, fighting boredom too! The materials in the equipment that is needed to handle your business as a superhero or superplaya has to be reliable, top quality and time-tested so as not to get jammed up in the heat of the moment. The top material of choice for me is the precious metal: gold! #1. Gold, 9 times out of 10, is the jewelry of choice for your typical playa to wear and be seen in the public eye so as to fluant their importance and wealth. #2. Gold has certain alluring properties that has motivated countless men and women to take action albeit for better or worse. #3.Gold is durable and a very long-lasting metal worthy of encasing or embedding into ones arsenal to be efficient I can make this case historically over the last 4,000 years going all the way back to ancient Kemet or what Greek and Roman scholars have erroneously called Egypt! Gold is a precious and very valuable metal that is naturally found in the earth but is not easily found by the common person.
It is a highly corrosion-resistant metal, a good conductor of electricity and is the principal choice of a country's reserve hard asset to back their own fiat (paper) money since paper was issued. Historically, the coinage of choice all over the world was either gold or silver coins, but gold coins held the most intrinsic value. Think about what was in those treasure chest that Pirates tried to steal from European ships that crossed the Caribbean sea or the Atlantic ocean during the era of oceanic travel during the 1500, 1600, 1700 and 1800's.
Scientifically, of all the metals on the periodic chart, "it is the only one that is both colored and whose color keeps its shine and beauty forever. You can find a piece of gold lying on the ground where it has been for million of years, pick it up, dust it off and it will shine for you as if it's been waiting for you the whole time". Amazing, right? This is why gold is the one precious metal is has stood the test of time (sounds familiar?). The definition of a precious metal is one that is a "rare, naturally occurring metallic, chemical element of high economic value...regarded mainly as investment and industrial commodities." Astronomically, a Leo's governing metal is gold and colors are yellow, orange and gold. So it's no accident that Leos stay golden and ultimately shine out of all of the zodiac signs! *wink*
Moreover, Gold's symbol is Au on the periodic chart. So coincidentally when there's a crime being committed and you hear the thunderous commanding voice of Flyzel saying "Aye you"! Get it (Au) or simply "Ayeeee u" then you know some sh#t is about to happen cause Captain Save a bro is coming!
Leos are also sun signs! We loveeeee the Sun and get energized by it! Plus, if you have high concentrations of skin pigment or Melanin, you very much need more exposure of the sun's UVA and UVB rays so it can be absorbed and synthesize to produce energy among other uses. Melanin is an effective absorbent of sunlight and is able to dissipate great deals of UV radiation more than any other group of people.
For example, "Epidemiological data strongly support the photoprotective role of melanin as there exists an inverse correlation between skin pigmentation and the incidence of sun-induced skin cancers and subjects with White skin are approximately 70 times more likely to develop skin cancer than subjects with Black/Brown skin"..."Melanin in Black/Brown skin is twice as effective compared to White skin in inhibiting UVB radiation from penetration [and better protected against UV-induced damage]". So in conclusion, one of Flyzel's main power sources is the sun. It powers up his melanin which thus empowers his creativity, strength, energy levels, gift of gab, the mundane and boredom! If Flyzel could marry the sun believe me he would and Pizza, can't forget about Pizza.

"To all the women in the place with style and grace..."
Gentlemen, Flyzel has two rules while engaging the opposite sex for potential situations: Be yourself and don't lie to get women! Listen. It's lame and disrespectful . Being honorable is not just a saying, it's a way of life! If you are from a big metropolitan city like NYC, Chicago or LA then your choices of available single women WHO ARE NOT IN RELATIONSHIPS are literally in the high hundred thousands, or if you live in smaller cities or regional areas your choices are still in the tens of thousands, so that being the case, there are more than enough to go around and have your pick, playa. This website is all about being the best version of yourself and that means character development, being honorable and maintaining a good reputation and good karma! If we are truly each other's keeper/brother's keeper then we need to exercise and maintain control of ourselves which includes our wants, desires and lustful wishes. Again, there is no honor in engaging in extramarital affairs with married women or running around with another man's girlfriend because there is no honor in that behavior. Many of men have ruined their reputation, name, bodies and karma all for the chase of illicit sex or having relations with a woman that is somebody else's property. Ultimately, God sees all and even if you don't get caught in the acts of sneaking around, there is no escaping your karma because you may not believe in a higher power but ultimately you can't hide from yourself and as we say to the young people, "who is the worst person to lie to" And the correct response is "yourself"! Wherever you go there you are and if you're a piece of sh*t, not an honorable dude and men can't trust you at all well then you will carry with you the stench of an odor. And in this life you are either a fragrance or an odor!
So honestly, which one are you?
So honestly, which one are you?
Time to put lessons into action
It's all about access!
Here is a good example of what the game entails you to be, fellas! True story! So way back in November 21st 2019 I remember when me and my team got invited and confirmed for the Bacardi Rum Room event curated by Jhene Aiko, it was a party to remember and I can still feel the vibe and buzz from that night. A Bacardi rep told my peoples earlier that day that they received over 2,000 RSVP's but the venue only holds about 500 heads so now, because information is power, unbeknownst to hundreds and hundreds of party goers they weren't getting into an event that they got confirmed for! So you kind of either had to get there early and plan ahead to increase your odds of getting in which is the safe play. Unless you were media or a VIP personally invite by Bacardi then you are not considered an first-tier VIP and after the first-tier, you have your second tier VIP's who were invited and/or know the reps or the promoters who got you easy access into the event ! Third, was second-tier guest list who was lucky to submit the RSVP on time because that list was only open for a couple of days and then it closed with the quickness so if you got a confirm email you were one of the lucky ones and there was a good chance you were going to be in the house with Jhene Aiko and all the free drinks, food, giveaways, activities and all of that! And finally, those last-tier folks or the general public who were on the bottom of the pecking order of guests who received the invite from their plugs, friends and associates and sent in their RSVP's and also got a confirm email that they were invited. As you can see the event started at 7:30 but they let media, celebs and first-tier VIP's in at 6:30 then after keeping folks on the line even those who got there by 5:30/6 were not let in until 7:30 to in some cases 9 o'clock. If you didn't get in within those times or tried to finesse your way somehow in the spot and I quote the bouncer told me "because of the spot being at over capacity they told everybody that was on line you are not getting in and to go home"! Mind you there were still a couple of hundred people on the line and they all were turned away and mad as hell because some dudes tried to bumrush the door which they were ultimately unsuccessful. Meanwhile, we got in on that VIP line because we were considered in that second-tier group but we finessed our way to that VIP line and low and behold we got in. We had a great time up in that joint and enjoyed ourselves immensely, drinking, eating, received gifts, met good people, the ladies and talent was very nice throughout the whole night! Now, I'm not bragging because I got in but again, this was a case of having access, good timing, knowing the right people and finessing the situation and thinking quickly on your feet. If you knew someone on that VIP line you were able to skip the line and slide right in the line. If you knew a first-tier VIP and had their number or social media contacts then they came downstairs to pull you off of the line and you got in or if you thought quickly on your feet and finessed the situation to get you in and ride somebody else's wave then you got in but if you got there late, didn't know anybody or the right people, or you don't know how to finesse your way into something by using your gift a gab or was a good boy or girl scout by waiting patiently in line & not being proactive and waited on the line from 7 to 9, 2 freaking hours, then you wasted your cologne or perfume, makeup, time, your effort and traveling expenses and that basically that RSVP! Your night was kind of a bust and you left there very disappointed and you missed it!
So let's look at the lessons: Guys, there were at least 2 to 3 women who saw me on line and wanted me to get them in and one of them had a dude with them and sort of tried to get my attention because her dude was powerless and could not make something happen to get her in. I got a couple of DM's late that night from those women telling me they saw me and tried to holler at me to get them and their friends in but if you weren't part of the 1st, 2nd or 3rd tiers then there wasn't too much that could be done because you know how bouncers are even if you're on the list unless somebody comes to get you or you know the right people then no access! So as I tell you guys all the time it's your social currency that wins in the end because some dudes were trying to buy their way in and the bouncers weren't even trying to hear it! So money is not everything and can not get you into everything. So if I can get your girl access into a popping event/party and she is being extra nice, flirty and what not then playa, you're powerless and your girl's attention is not totally on you, it's on the next man and that's a problem my dude! And don't give me" that we can go somewhere else BS" because that was the "it" event for the night free of charge and it was super lit up in there, no doubt! So her thinking in the immediate future is how can I be more cool and friends with the dudes and people with access to these parties and events because MY BOYFRIEND IS NOT SOMEONE WHO HAS ACCESS OR SOMEONE THAT CAN GET ME ACCESS INTO THE SPOTS THAT I WANT TO GO TO AND ENJOY myself! If this happens too many times then you're not really a high-valved man in her eyes and that's when the interest starts to fade and her ability to believe in you subsides and then it may be too late. Just look at the opposite effect if you're still not convinced: Let's say you two don't have to wait on the line, you have immediate VIP access to this event and everybody is looking at y'all like who are they and the other women on line are looking like I wish I was with him and riding on his wave! So how you think she is going to feel about you once you two get inside the venue? Right, she going to be on you hard and sweating you for the rest of the night and looking at you like "this dude is a keeper because he has access and got me up in the spot". That's what you ultimately want! You're lying to yourself if you say otherwise and the worst person to lie to is yourself! But instead, she has to learn that she has to be cool with these people in the loop and if one of those dudes is a wolf, smooth with words and uses he's influence to help her and gets closer to know her, exchange IG's, SNAP and all that then you're asking for something bad to happen or your situation to turn south real quick, my brothers. How can it not! It's just a matter of time! Do you get the importance of social currency, not being an asshole to others, being sociable and getting out there & making connections and knowing the right people or getting information that can put you in a position to increase your odds of winning or nah! Are you getting this yet? Or you need more proof? Hundreds of folks got kicked off that line and left with nothing but time wasted. That's not cool at all! After some time in this lane I've learn it's about social graces, networking, linking with the right people, and not being a fragrance and not an odor! You must be proactive, resourceful, fearless, take chances, assertive, good character, the gift of gab and research a situation ahead of time but if you fail to plan you plan to fail! Get off your butts and get out there and work towards getting access to get what y'all really want at the end of the night which is vibe, a dope night and a good A$$ time!
PURPOSE, PURPOSE, PURPOSE
This experience in the physical called life is a constant, continuous process of learning and growing before your time is up!
We only get one so why are you playing with it??? What are you doing with yours? You get out of it what you put into it indirectly and directly. Life is better lived when one finds their purpose! Find your purpose!
Gentlemen, you must be on your purpose! Everything will fall into place once you know what your purpose in life is and once your potential is realized. It is a buying market out concerning dating options and there are all sorts of women to choose from but they will not submit and follow men who are unsuitable to follow. Like duh!!! Just because you're a male that does not automatically make you followable! It takes a great deal of responsibility to lead a family. You must have track record of acting responsibly, speaking responsibly and knowing how to be decisive and consistent when making decisions. When a man demonstrates he is able to do this she should and will be comfortable and willing to submit to your leadership and guidance. This is not a give in! THE NERVE OF SOME OF YOU GUYS! Remember, the three issues men will struggle with throughout their lives are strength, consistency and decisiveness and the three things women are looking for in a men is strength, consistency and decisiveness. Get it? Got it? Good!
Be Purpose Driven
If you have a strong purpose in life, you don't have to be pushed. Your passion will drive there." Roy T. Bennett

*"Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give your whole heart and soul to it." Buddha*"If passion is driven by energy and emotion, purpose is driven by reason"
Here is a short exercise between the difference of passion and purpose:
"Passion is about, example "I am so passionate about ________" "Purpose is to and for, "I must do________", "I was put here to accomplish ______", "I am willing to endure_______ for the sake of this". Purpose deemphasizes the I, purpose is about pursuing something outside yourself as opposed to pleasuring yourself. Along with purpose comes realism. Where do we start? What do we do first? What do we do right now? How are we sure that what we're doing is moving us forward? What are we benchmarking ourselves against?
