These days, “dream come true” is generally an expression only. But for Cbabi and Reine Bayoc, owners of the St. Louis-exclusive bakeshop Sweet Art, it’s reality. “Me and my wife originally got this place because it was a space we could share,” Cbabi Bayoc said. “She was cooking and I was making a living as [...]
The rap industry is changing, with an array of new diverse rappers. “I think it’s more acceptable to be a white rapper or female rapper than it was before,” sophomore Drew Holtzman said. “People are becoming more comfortable with it.
