Experiencing Magic Through Music with Cmagic5

Cmagic5 is a phenomenal singer, songwriter, and musician based out of Toronto, Canada. She is far from a newbie in the music and recording industry. Cmagic5 has been performing in front of audiences since the age of five, continuing her articulation into an empowered, outspoken female, role model, and anti-bullying advocate. Cmagic5’s personal evolution is apparent when listening to her music. She manages to effortlessly fuse her pop niche with other genres like afrobeat, rock, and trap. The genre-bending textures shine through on her much anticipated debut album “Ready to Run,” which explores self intimacy and love, or the lack thereof. Jejune is excited to talk to Cmagic5 about her unapologetic journey in finding self-respect and her new song “Love Me If You Can,” which hones in on personal experiences of letting someone go and focusing on yourself.

Brains and Beauty: Adaire Byerly's Neural Observations On Human Behavior

As an ex-neuroscientist, I was super excited to hear about Adaire Byerly’s plan to integrate the fashion and entertainment industry with the neuroscience world. As an ex-model herself, she saw an obvious hole in the fashion and entertainment industries where people are not looking beyond the visual, and she wanted to dive in deep, cellularly deep.

Currently, Adaire is looking at the neural exploration of compassion, and she is applying that sensitivity to her company, Entertainment Mindframe, which is bridging the gap between the entertainment industry and science. By incorporating modern-day sciences and her first-hand experience in the industry as an actress/model, she hopes her findings can be implemented into intellectual and developmental training for professionals.
