Simpson & Kareem Knight of the Aqua League. Videos have also been released for “Father’s Day” and “OGJM”. Hasan has performed live on NBC, Fuse, CSPAN and PBS. All profits from his 2012 EP, Music Is My Weapon were used towards his “It Takes A Village” project which funded a school, clean water well, and medical clinic in Guinea-Bissau, West Africa.

Also a master fetish trainer and sex educator, he speaks at shelters – specifically to abused women – helping them reintroduce sensuality back in their lives. Hasan is a Sexpert blogger for Calexotics, a sexual wellness and novelty website, and recently founded his own erotica/fetish company, Sensual Noire/Jet Setting Jasmine (set to present at this year’s FetCon), as well as opening his first fitness studio, Body Altitudes, in Florida.
