This young music sensation beautifully weaves in his childhood traumas into songs to reach the masses and make a positive difference in their lives.

Much is said about different artists around the world be it singers, musicians, actors, performers, comedians, etc. who try to display the emotions through their art out in the world by channelizing their innermost feelings from the deepest corners of their heart. This may be called their creative liberation because sometimes or may be most of the times they make their art an excuse to lay out their emotions which they otherwise hide from the eyes of the world. One such outstanding musical artist from the west side of Chicago is Hugh Lee, who has always tried to be a storyteller through his songs with the aim to touch the right chords of his listeners and audiences so that they deeply identify with what he creates and helps them in triggering only positive thoughts through his music.

Born in 1992, this young trailblazer of the music industry of the west has slowly but firmly made his name count amongst the legendary artists of America with being a two time Emmy nominated artist. He is a rapper, singer, and songwriter from the Austin neighborhood of Chicago. His songs speak his deepest emotions and feelings, and his exemplary rapping and singing abilities talk about his childhood traumas which he wishes must reach more masses.

Growing up in the projects of Chicago and been surrounded by violence, made him grow closer to music which led to the creations of tracks that spoke volumes about the struggles he faced as a child. Through his strategic music videos that are specifically designed to trigger the right the most positive emotions and thoughts in a human being, his music creates magic.

He completed his Bachelor’s in Psychology and studied from Indiana State University. He used psychology to his advantage and created music that talked about the mental struggles a person experiences in life. Lee also works non-profit with his company called Libras Never Lie, Inc. for making a difference in the lives of innercity youth by providing autism therapy analysis for the ones who can’t afford the services. The youth that he helps are the ones who already are diagnosed with autism, bi-polar disorder and many other mental and behavioral disorders.

Lee is also known for speaking on mental health in almost all his songs and that helps in creating a significant impact on people facing such issues. His song “Factitious” talks about the coming of PTSD and surviving an almost impossible set of tricks and traps set by those in power for blacks. Another of his track named “Graduation” speaks of how he goes against the many pharmaceutical companies who only focus on earning profits instead of actually helping in treating depression.

His musical art and rapping have made him earned the status of Hip Hop’s newest face for promoting mental health through his meaningful songs. After his first-ever mixtape “FRESHHEIR” became a huge hit, last year Lee released his first single ever from his debut album “CABRINI”.

Sustainability is an ongoing theme in a world that finally answers the environment’s call to action. From toning down single-use plastics to making subtle yet powerful lifestyle changes, modern society means business when it comes to the green revolution.

The skincare industry, in particular, is pitching in by resorting to clean beauty. From Greece to the Netherlands, Amalia Pavlidou stumbled upon a revelation. As she browsed rows of natural products, the idea for Alternative Therapies began to take shape—a skincare line rooted in nature, yet forward-thinking in science.

The Evolution of a Conscious Skincare Movement

As consumers demand more transparency in their beauty routines, the natural and vegan skincare market is booming. Alternative Therapies finds itself at the heart of this eco-conscious shift.

“When we started, it was not just about creating products—it was about driving a movement that would help put the world on track toward healing,” says Amalia Pavlidou. “I wanted to prove that luxury and sustainability can coexist without canceling each other out.”

This philosophy shines through in every detail, from the company’s recyclable glass packaging to its commitment to avoiding harmful chemicals like parabens and sulfates. One of the flagship products, the vitamin C serum, is a true reflection of this concept, blending 2% natural Vitamin C, ferulic acid, and sea-buckthorn to deliver both radiant skin and a clean conscience.

Alternative Therapies, once a small player, has utilized this trend, entering the competitive U.S. market this year. “There is a deep-rooted connection between nature and self-care in Greek culture,” explains Pavlidou. “We are bringing that tradition to the global stage, blending it with progressive science.”

The Rise of Eco-Beauty 

Amalia Pavlidou’s plan for progress in the industry—one where luxury does not compromise ethics—has attracted a growing community of supporters. As Alternative Therapies expands its presence in the U.S., it remains grounded in its mission to redefine beauty standards.

“When I started this, I was hoping to do more than simply build a business—I wanted to build a legacy,” reflects Pavlidou. “Apart from looking good, beauty should be about feeling good and doing good.”

Now the question is not whether the beauty industry will embrace sustainability—it is how quickly it can catch up with pioneers like Alternative Therapies taking the reins. With its commitment to changing the world with mild ingredients, the brand is crafting a greener glow, lighting the way for a more conscious industry. To that effect, it is evident that luxury and beauty can be synonymous.
