Recently&nbsp;<strong>Mr. HUBB<\/strong>&nbsp;launched his latest venture ThatHubbLife ENT, a socially responsible Entertainment company where not only&nbsp;<strong>Mr. HUBB<\/strong>&nbsp;but other artists will be releasing their music in the future. Unlike many other entertainment companies or record labels ThatHubbLife ENT will not only help these artists release their music but will also work as a support system for them unlike many mainstream labels that tend to just focus on the immediate financial return of their artists.

This song represents us making conscious decisions to do better and be better!\u201d<br><br>Growing up in Newark, NJ,&nbsp;<strong>Mr. HUBB aka Al-Tariq<\/strong>&nbsp;led a far from semi-charmed life. The middle child of three sons in a single parent household,&nbsp;<strong>Al-Tariq&nbsp;<\/strong>witnessed his mother being abused under several domestic violence situations. He later endured his fair share of trauma, being physically and emotionally abused by other trusted so-called friends and relatives. \u201cI didn\u2019t understand my own trauma until recently,\u201d he admits. \u201cNow that I\u2019m a grown man, I\u2019m a Certified Victim Advocate, though it took a lot for me to recognize that I was also a victim at one point.\u201d That realization led to self-awareness in understanding his own triggers, but also the reasons for some of the decisions that he made in his younger years.&nbsp;From the age of nine,&nbsp;<strong>Al-Tariq&nbsp;<\/strong>was making music and became the leader of a local Hip-Hop crew. \u201cMusic saved my life,\u201d he explains. \u201cI was smart and artistic, but I blended in with the dudes who were up to no good, because I found solace in them.\u201d A life-altering event happened at the age 17, right before his first son was born, when he was pulled over by the police and dehumanized for driving while Black. \u201cSomething changed in me,\u201d he said, \u201cbecause right up the block there were drug dealers doing real damage, and I was being humiliated and my rights being violated.\u201d&nbsp;<strong>Al-Tariq<\/strong>&nbsp;traded in his music career and pointed more towards social reform. He formed FP YouthOutCry Foundation, (Not-for-Profit 501c3) today legally doing business as The HUBB Arts &amp; Trauma Center in Newark, NJ. H.U.B.B. stands for \u201cHelp Us Become Better.\u201d While his 9000 square foot, Mayor-Appointed \u201cCenter of Hope\u201d focuses on arts &amp; trauma recovery,&nbsp;<strong>Al-Tariq<\/strong>, known now as&nbsp;<strong>Mr. HUBB<\/strong>&nbsp;to Newark and surrounding cities\u2019 youth, utilizes the arts to save the lives of others the way music saved his.
