14. An Interview w/ Quest Michaels (by Jhantu Randall)
When it comes to any story in
entertainment, the one that
always stands out is the one told
about the underdog. The story
about the person that works hard,
produces content consistently,
studies the craft and still, for
some reason or another, stays
relatively under the radar. While
many may see this as a
disadvantage in a sea of talented
spitters and artists, some would
say to be underrated is the most
dangerous because you have the
opportunity to remain
inconspicuous.
I first saw Quest Michaels take the
stage a few months back at an
open mic I was performing in at
Lady Luck’s in Parkland. I saw him
kind of stay hidden in the
shadows, watching intently as the
other artists graced the stage and
spit their piece. Not knowing what
to expect, I watched as Quest
grabbed the mic and made his way
under the spotlight which was
surrounded by a dim ambience
which played well in the hands of
a few acts. With an upbeat, almost
reggae rhythm, Quest spit his life
in bar after bar which he switched
flows on numerous times. The
verses were gaining momentum,
but it was the sonic quality and
song structure that stayed with
you until after the record was
ended. Read Full Interview…

15. Over the past few weeks I’ve taken you through every person I managed to get
interviews with at the
Bubba Sparks show in Spanaway. While there were a few that I wasn’t able to get, I
assure you that they will be highlighted at some point in the future because the one
thing that ties all these artists together is their drive and hunger for more!
Through getting to know all the acts, my brain started wondering, who was the person
that managed to bring this whole thing altogether?
And it was with that question that I was able to meet the man behind the curtain. The
CEO of 03 Entertainment, Lazerrick Holiday. Thanks to George Kush who through his
connections, put this interview together, I was able to meet with Lazerick at the Y
Sports Bar at 7 o’clock on a rather light Thursday evening. When I first met him, he
actually matched the image in my mind of what a CEO is. Quiet, unassuming, humble
to a degree, and most importantly, always aware of whats going on in the background.
We sat down and I turned on my recorder as we both lit cigarettes and began to talk
about his story. The smoke only seemed to add to the mystery of the man behind it
all.
As soon as we started, the first words out of his mouth were, “I’m a father, artist,
entrepreneur, student of the game and most importantly, a hard worker.” It was from
that first statement that I knew I was dealing with someone who was truly building a
foundation and preparing for a long run in this business as opposed to those who only
seem to be drawn to the flashier side of things.

22. Mistah Wilson: Hello there, Gaby Juergens!
It is such a tremendous honor to have you here
with us for this exclusive interview with
ThaWilsonBlock Magazine! How are you
these days?
Gaby Juergens: Very well, thank you!
Working hard as an Entrepreneur with
Homefront Girl® while at the same time
trying to do good things with my creative.
Mistah Wilson: For our audience reading
this, could you give us a quick background on
yourself ?
Gaby Juergens: Certainly. I come from a long
line of family military service, daughter of a
veteran, married for 28 years to a career
military officer and raised a son in the life. I
started Homefront Girl® after his retirement
in 2013 and wondered what do I do with the
rest of my life? I had been a military wife
and volunteer for so many years, and then I
decided to concentrate on what I loved very
much and that was our military families and
their service.
Mistah Wilson: Now, we have to admit, we
are very impressed with your work! Tell us
about Homefront Girl and what helped
inspired this unique brand?
Gaby Juergens: The idea came to me to start
a design studio based on years of having a
front row seat to witnessing their selfless
sacrifice supporting our men and women in
uniform. I wanted positive messages, trendy,
fashion forward designs and something that I
had never seen as I was coming up through
the ranks, so to speak. Homefront Girl was
born, the tag line is, "Sharing your HERO
with the World" They say "Create what you
wish existed," and so I did. I am a self
taught artist by the way. It's never too late
for a 2nd act in life!!
Mistah Wilson: We also heard that you've
recently won a battle with breast cancer. Your
story can inspire so many! Would you care to
share your experience with us?
Gaby Juergens: In 2016 I was diagnosed with
stage 3 Breast cancer, this came on the heels
of discovering the demise in a very traumatic
way of my marriage, stress can kill you, I
was in a state of shock, heartbreak, rapid
weight loss, hair loss from the shock and
shortly after came the cancer diagnosis. So I
went off to fight at Johns Hopkins for over a
year for my life. I had a son, and I fought for
him. I was going to leave him motherless if I
could help it. I shared my journey with
the Homefront Girl fanpage and I found
strength in their stories and prayers. I just
celebrated a year since my last treatment and
I am grateful I am so far good to go.
Mistah Wilson: You are no stranger in giving
back to the community. In your own words,
what does it mean to be a "volunteer"?
Gaby Juergens: For many years as a military
spouse, I participated as a volunteer but also
as a commanders spouse in recognizing the
invaluable support that volunteers give. To be
a volunteer in any capacity is to have an
empathetic heart, a desire to contribute, to
give back in some way with nothing expected
in return, except for the immense joy of
knowing you've made a difference big or
small. One of favorite quotes in life is:
"When you look back upon your life, the
moments that stand out, the moments that
really mean something, are those when you
did something something in the spirit of
love." I live by that. Homefront Girl® comes
from my heart.
"I wanted positive messages, trendy, fashion
forward designs and something that I had
never seen as I was coming up through the
ranks, so to speak. Homefront Girl was
born..." -Gaby Juergens

24. Mistah Wilson: What part have you played in
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?
Gaby Juergens: Last year I learned that
Military Children had been invited to
audition and participate in the 2017 Macy's
Thanksgiving Parade. I was thrilled to hear
this, but soon, it came to my attention that
there were possible problems getting the
children who financial support to make the
Performing Camp fee, not mention, the
expenses of traveling to NYC. Military
service is not a money making profession, so it
is not easy to make these expenses for a lot of
families. When I learned that the parade
appearance by our kids was having problems,
I looked for someone to speak with involved
with Camp Broadway, and asked how I could
help; I could use my social media and roladex
and contacts to raise awareness whatever
could help. I told them to google me I wasn't
a kook. LOL. Long story short BeAlliance the
financial arm of Camp Broadway, a fabulous
organization, many people I reached out and
other people who worked hard to get the
financial support we successfully got our
military kids to NYC and they participated
at Herald Square representing their service
and their loved ones. They were dressed in
amazing clothes representing the service of
their loved one and Combat boots! I gifted
each one, my son was there with me, with
Homefront Girl® Teddy Bears. The children
loved them. It was a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Mistah Wilson: And we must discuss your Dr.
Mary Walker award! How does it feel to
receive such an honor?
Gaby Juergens: The Dr. Mary Walker award
is one of the award presented to a military
spouse that has exemplified through volunteer
work the love of soldiers and military
families. Dr. Walker was an extraordinary
woman of her time, who served as medical
officer, sometimes dressing as a man to work
on the frontlines, her bravery, service was
rewarded and she remains the sole female
recipient of the Medal of Honor. It was
quite an honor to receive the award.
Mistah Wilson: So, you are a designer! Where
do you draw creativity from?
Gaby Juergens: As a designer, as many
artists, we draw from what we know, what we
care about, we all touchstone, whether as a
musician,painter, writer. For me, Homefront
Girl® and the design studio is really built on
the experiences and memories and love of a
lifetime with our military life. I learned
bravery from the bravest, it got me through
cancer, it got through a lot and it inspired
Homefront Girl®
Mistah Wilson: In what ways do you plan to
impact the World through the Homefront Girl
brand?
Gaby Juergens: I hope that Homefront Girl®
and the designs that I create and products
will introduce to a 250 Million demographic
which is what our military related population
is, we have 5 million caregivers, military
caregivers, I hope they cement the bonds of
our lifestyle with them. We may leave the
military, but it really never leaves us, the
camraderie, shared experience are priceless.
At the same time, I hope it gives an insight to
those to whom the military life is a question
mark. What they know of it are troops on
deployments, welcome home ceremonies, but
the not the waiting, the missed firsts (births,
first steps, first words), all that is part of the
sacrifice by the Brave and what I have come
to call the "Other Half of the Brave" and
that is our military families and children. If
it lends a spotlight somehow I am happy.
Mistah Wilson: Where can people find all of
your cool products?
Gaby Juergens: You can Shop Homefront
Girl® at www.Homefrontgirl.com and also a
new amazing apparel collection through
Flying Colors will be introduced soon so

serving and their families. Thank you for
what you do- every day. - Gaby Juergens
