Every aspect of human life is vulnerable to change, including one’s journey to success. While others believe that the path to the materialization of their dreams is a one-way street, there are a significant number of people who truly understand that the way to victory has its unexpected detours. As a matter of fact, several established authorities and highly accomplished personalities can attest to the reality that the path to success is filled with twists and turns. As someone who has had his fair share of it all, Roger Alexander steps forward to serve as an inspiration for aspirants looking to get ahead in this dog-eat-dog world.

Hailed for his brilliance and prowess in the realms of film and entertainment, Roger Alexander is a passion-driven visionary, executive producer, director of photography, and the esteemed founder of AlphaMale Visuals. Since dipping his toes into the field, this multifaceted go-getter has been gracing the industry with prominent projects and working with notable figures and entities across the industry. While these milestones are already impressive, there is more to this power player than his incredible list of accomplishments.

Before reaching the summits of the film industry, Roger Alexander first had a deep-seated love for music. In high school and in college, the rising personality could recall rapping, creating mixtapes, and making beats for fun. At the same time he was creating skits and parody videos to promote events and community service that is fraternity organized in college. (Alpha Phi Alpha). However, when he graduated, Roger took what he thought was the safer route and worked at a corporation. Although he was earning enough to make ends meet, Roger knew that his heart belonged to creating films. Thus, he decided to start his production company and shoot music videos on the weekends and after hours, outside of his normal 9-to-5 desk job. He continued this strategy for five years until he saved up enough to quit his day job in 2016 and move to Atlanta to run his company full-time.

Currently, Roger Alexander is making waves for his unparalleled ability to produce films that speak volumes of his deep-seated love for the craft. He has produced and directed music videos for countless rappers and singers such as Lil Baby, 42 Dugg, Neyo, 2 Chainz, Young Thug, Yung Bleu and more, and worked with several music labels such as RCA, Warner Music Group, Alamo Records, among others. He has produced and shot feature films, as well as directed performances for award shows. A movie he produced and shot in 2021 entitled “Twisted House Sitter” is currently streaming on Tubi. And he also directed the opening performance of the BET Hip-Hop awards for Lil Baby performing “We Paid,” which was the number one song in the country at the time.

As a result, Roger has gained notoriety over the years, being named as the 2020 Director of the Year by the Atlanta Hip Hop Awards. He also has six plaques of Gold and Platinum Records under his wing and has gathered over 200 million views collectively. 

Although this power player’s intentions do not involve carving a path in the world of filmmaking in the first place, Roger Alexander serves as a genuine attestation that unexpected twists and turns often lead to one’s true calling. With his keen eye for cinematography and an incredible talent for photography, he sets a precedent for aspiring filmmakers who are still confused about the path they are taking. Through his tale, Roger hopes to inspire others to not be afraid to try and continue persevering for one’s dreams.

Unlike many who have opportunities available to pursue, Phillip Meeks, an artist from Texas, is someone who has always sought out these opportunities for himself. 

It was around the age of 10 years old that Phillip Meeks started showing an interest in rap. He kept learning more about rap, hip hop, and R&B and began creating a few of his own verses while in junior high school. Once in high school, Phillip Meeks had solidified his presence as a future artist, at least among his peers, with a 19 track EP he and his friends released. He had the ability to change his voice to sound like his high school coach which allowed Meeks some attention. He also played multiple sports, keeping it as another option for his career. However, life robbed Phillip Meeks of making this decision, with an unfortunate accident playing backyard football that led to Phillip Meeks tearing his ACL. Phillip Meeks, now about to enter college, decided to head back to South East Texas and put in his time and effort into pursuing music. This was the last of his worries, however, and the young man even had to spend some time living out of his car to fund the plans he had for his future. It was only in 2017, after he had tried his hand at multiple jobs that he could finally afford a MacBook, which gave him the tools to create and mix tunes again. Before his official debut in 2020, Phillip Meeks spent the next 3 years taking online courses and teaching himself all that there is about branding, hip hop and music composition. 

Phillip Meeks describes himself to be a one man show, and truly, once you take a closer look at the behind the scenes, the amount of hard work and sheer determination that he has shown to make his dream come true is truly exemplary. Since his official debut, Phillip Meeks has released 3 tracks by the name of “All the same Freestyle,” “Kaotica Freestyle,” and “Your love.” Those who know all the steps that entail producing a song will thus appreciate the fact that Phillip Meeks has himself directed and edited one of them, while codirecting and coediting the videography and final production of another. While there are many who work under the label of an artist, Phillip Meeks brings a whole new meaning to the word, incorporating his numerous other talents as a professional photographer, fashion designer, painter, web designer, graphic designer, videographer and editor. 

Keeping in line with his positive attitude and ambitious nature, Phillip Meeks has plans of collaborating with other talented rising artists. He also hopes to reach a standing which would allow him to launch his own fashion brand in the future.
