What Exactly Is The Black Heart Magazine About?
Good question. Well the Black Heart magazine aims at inspiring young members of the public through fashion, music, culture and what not, as well as encouraging them to chase their dreams, do whatever it is they have a passion for and ultimately achieve more!
What kind of readers do you hope to attract?
I aim to attract all kinds of readers, both male & female and not just fashion enthusiasts. The Black Heart Mag aims at providing affordable yet trendy fashion clothing pieces and stlyes so just about anyone can look stylish!
This Goes Without Saying But Can You State Your full Name?
Haha! My full name is Dabby Tony-Muoh. If you're asking what the full of Dabby is, I ain't telling *laughs* I can give you a trade off though. My other name is Gerald.
We met up with the CEO of Black Heart Magazine earlier this week for a fun and exclusive interview and inside view of the business. Here's what we talked about:
As A Stylist, What Do You Hope To Bring To This Magazine?
I hope to bring very interesting styles that will suit the average person reading this magazine, and as I previously stated, I aim to showcase very affordable yet trendy clothing items
Will You Eventually Go Into Paper Printing?
I chose for the magazine to be online mainly because it will be more easily available to the general public. For now, I cannot exactly say if it will become papaer but let's see how things turn out!
Care To Drop Some Name We Should Look Forward To Seeing On The Cover?
So far I've got PrinceBoom, TeeZee & FreshL DRB, DJ BAJ,Folake Otudeko, LordSki, Green Inc Photograhy, Morenike(Out of Gidi Snapback), Niyi Okeowo(Arts), Ayodele Erinle(Scizzor Mafia Clothing) and Cliffe. We are in contact with many more youth so expect even more!
What Kinda People Inspired You To Provide This Platform?
I wouldn't mention names but I took a look at what most youth are doing with their lives and I saw that most of us aren't doing what we have a passion for. And so I thought, 'why not inspire and empower the youth by doing what I have a passion for?'
What's Your favourite Feature Of The Magazine?
Hmmm this is a tough one really. It would have to be between the fashion aspect of the magazine and the aspect that deals with featuring someone new on each subsequent issue

Why a Magazine and Why Now?
I've always wanted to own a fashion magazine because it was from fashion magazines I got most of my ideas as a stylist, but I never really had the time to start one. I started a fashion blog instead (dabbydabz.tumblr.com), which I guess has now grown into the Black Heart Magazine.
How Did You Come Up With A Name For Your Magazine?
Fashion is a thing that i've always had in my heart so that's the "Heart" bit of the name. I was looking for what would go with "Heart" and wouldn't sound mushy *laughs*, so I went with "Black". The name Black Heart is half-bit sentimental I'd say.
