What's good everybody and welcome back to the latest edition of 'Chucky's Report'!!! This time around I'm featuring a legend of the Jersey, Channel Islands, Hip-Hop scene Bean Lebouc (formally known as B-Eazy).  Whether he's spitting fire verses or producing masterpieces with his instrumentals he will always deliver with top notch artistry.  I have been a fan of his for over a decade now watching his journey from an artist to a producer to a blogger and so much more. I've also been lucky enough to call him a friend.  He has given me loads of opportunities to work alongside him (especially here on R.A.W Media) and helped me get out of some of my darkest moments in life.  I know we will continue working together, as we march forward, and hopefully one day we will have the opportunity to work on some music together.  A little known fact is that after B-Eazy laid down the mic, after his final project 'FLOWERS' in 2021, I included a bouquet of...

Bean Lebouc - Before we get started for those who may not know Bay Ragni tell us a bit about yourself and what made you want to get in the Wrestling business?  Bay Ragni  - First off, thanks so much for asking me to do this, and help me build the legend of myself and Chubby Dudley!!!  Since a very young age I knew that I never wanted to be a doctor, police, fire or army man and that I wanted to be a star. I wanted to be Evel Knievel, a sports player, an actor or a rock star and then, in the Mid 80's, whilst I was following my rock star dreams I fell in love with the world of Professional Wrestling and companies like NWA, WCCW and Mid-South.  The energy, and emotions, I would get watching those shows was like watching the movie 'Rocky' and Pro...

R.A.W Media's Bean Lebouc continues his 'Legends Of Indy Wrestling' series by catching up with one of the indy scenes most respected names King Kaluha to reflect on what is was like, during that time, on the independent wrestling scene.  Bean Lebouc - Before we get started for those who many not know King Kaluha tell us a bit about yourself and how you got started in the Pro Wrestling business?  King Kaluha - I started out as Mike Kaluha and began my training in 1992.  When I started there weren’t many wrestling schools. I was a high school, and college, athlete and I got serious about wrestling when I got up to around 235lb.  I spoke to a sports agent, at my gym, and he talked about getting into wrestling however he had no contacts but I eventually ended up meeting up with Larry Sharpe who had the Monster Factory.  I ended up meeting a bouncer who was opening a school closer to me. His name was Concrete Cowboy and he did some indy work in the Penn...
