  • Rayvon Owen Has Dreamed of a Life Dedicated to Music
    About For as long as he can remember, pop/soul singer, Rayvon Owen has dreamed of a life dedicated to music. Born to be on stage, the Richmond, VA., native began his music career at a very young age - singing in choirs, touring with gospel musicians and performing in local musicals. Influenced by artists such as Lionel Richie, John Legend, Troye Sivan and Stevie Wonder, Rayvon has developed his own voice as a powerful performer and reflective songwriter. By the age of 18, he relocated to Nashville, TN., to study Commercial Music at Belmont University. While in Music City, he pursued a performance career by writing with local musicians and performing at local events, venues, clubs and showcases. Shortly after graduation, Rayvon made his way from Nashville to Los Angeles, CA., where he continued to write and craft his sound. In 2014, he released his debut EP, "Cycles," which includes the hit single "Sweatshirt." In the past year, Rayvon took his talent on the road - performing at over 60 colleges across the United States. Already having a fan base across the U.S., he became a household name and "Twitter Save" champion as a Top 4 finalist on season 14 of "American Idol." While on "Idol," Rayvon performed with the likes of Jamie Foxx, Rickey Martin, Boy George and many others. Receiving rave reviews from major outlets, including People Magazine, USA Today and Billboard, he is noted, not only for his star quality and beautiful vocal tone, but for his ability to bring authenticity and emotion to his performances. Following his journey on "American Idol" and performing on the 38-city "American Idols LIVE!" tour this past summer, Rayvon shared his new creative direction and collaborative spirit with the September 2015 release of his "Air EP."

    MEDIA KIT 2017 Discover PHOENIX like never before is THE leading city magazine in the state of Arizona, with a total monthly average gross distribution of 88,000+ and over 350,000 total monthly readers. A top purveyor of travel, dining, the arts, entertainment and healthcare journalism, PHOENIX consistently ranks highest among national monthly titles in statewide newsstand sales and continues to be the Valley’s go-to-source for award-winning features and news coverage. LETTER FROM THE EDITOR milestone anniversary is more than a celebration – it’s an opportunity for reflection. Taking stock. Mindful change. As PHOENIX finishes cele- brating its 50th year of marriage to Athe Valley of the Sun, change and modernization are top of mind – a fact reflected in our 2017 edi- torial calendar. Consider the update we’re making to one of our biggest, most widely read perennial issues, Summer Getaways. Our advertisers and promotional partners love the content, but also feel the issue’s publication month, June, falls a bit too late in the season for readers planning their summer vacations. Our solution in 2017: moving Summer Getaways to May, with a fresh, exciting emphasis on coastal adventures. Many of our updates for 2017 were predicated on a comprehensive reader-prefer- ence survey completed this past summer. Our read- ers also told us they wanted more coverage of local business, the arts and Valley growth. Presto: a new monthly page devoted to Valley entrepreneurship, an expanded two-page arts section and feature sto- ries about freeway expansion and new home builds. Our readers also loved 101 Things We Love About Phoenix.

The reality TV competition is known for being lathered in glamour, sophistication, and fun. Not to mention, some serious eye candy. This summer brings in Cycle 22 of Top Model, and with it an up-and-coming heartthrob, Justin Kim. Loads of social media adoration surround Kim already, as admirers anxiously await his on-screen debut. A Northern Virginia native and George Mason University alumnus, Kim is taking the modeling world by storm. In this exclusive celebrity interview, Cupid talks to Kim about the road to stardom, the adventures along the way, and his best dating advice. Cupid’s Exclusive Celebrity Interview with ‘ANTM’ Up-and-Comer Justin Kim Kim wasn’t apt to put any of his dreams on hold while he was attending college. He explains welcoming a modeling career into his life, stating, “I went to [George Mason University], and I commuted, so that allowed me to do my thing on the side. Going to Mason was a blessing in disguise, because at first I’d wanted to go away to college and get the “full experience.” Then, my sophomore year [a friend of mine] asked if I wanted to be a secondary model for a shoot. I told him ‘no’ at first, but a week beforehand he contacted me again, so I did it.
