Rahsaan Patterson is a gifted singer-songwriter who has made a name for himself in the music industry with his soulful voice and heartfelt lyrics. Born in New York City in 1974, Patterson began his career as a child actor on the popular television show "Kids Incorporated."

Floyd Marshall Jr. Interviews Founder and Host of Studio Q, Quencie Thomas [VIDEO]

I am always the one doing interviews so, when Floyd Marshall Jr. of The Independent Film Association of Philadelphia asked to interview me I was very reluctant! That’s absolutely no shade to Floyd that is always my first response to anyone who wants to interview me.

My first question is always the same, what are we going to talk about? Floyd replied, your interviews of course! And that’s just what we did. I had a great time talking about how I got started interviewing celebrities, how I founded Studio Q and sharing some behind the scene stories.

On Sunday, December 1, 2019, I covered the 29th Annual Divas Simply Singing event at the Taglyan Cultural Complex in Hollywood presented by The Diva Foundation. The DIVA Foundation (acronym for Divinely Inspired, Victoriously Aware) is a nonprofit 501c (3) charitable organization founded by Sheryl Lee Ralph in 1990 as a memorial to the many friends she lost to HIV/AIDS while in the original Broadway company of Dreamgirls. The organization focuses on generating resources and coordinating activities to create awareness and combat against HIV/AIDS. The DIVA Foundation utilizes music and entertainment as a vehicle to inform, educate and erase the stigma still attached to this disease. In 2005, Sheryl Lee Ralph and the DIVA Foundation received the first Red Ribbon Leadership Award at the United Nations on World AIDS Day for the unique use of the arts in fighting HIV/AIDS.
