First-ever print edition expected by September 24 as BMORENews.com launches its premium section with interviews featuring KSAL Empire and Nicole Earle (BALTIMORE – September 16, 2025) — We are proud—and deeply grateful—to announce two historic milestones for BMORENews.com. Our inaugural print edition is officially on the way. Today is September 16. Within eight days—by Thursday, September 24—we expect to hold the first-ever print edition of BMORENews.com in our hands. After 24 years of publishing THE NEWS BEFORE THE NEWS, BMORENews.com is moving from the screen to the streets. This inaugural newspaper will let us put our journalism directly into the hands of the people we have always served, beginning right here in Baltimore. This is more than a newspaper. It is a tangible extension of our mission to document our communities, celebrate our people, and tell the stories too often overlooked by mainstream media. We extend special thanks to a visionary friend who prefers anonymity, the West North Avenue Development Authority (WNADA), Elev8 Baltimore, and ENOUGH@21217. Their support helped make this inaugural print edition possible. We appreciate their investment in community-centered storytelling and their recognition of the vital role independent Black media plays in Baltimore. At the same time, BMORENews.com has officially launched its new premium video section. Our first premium presentation features interviews with social media sensation and entrepreneur KSAL Empire and Baltimore developer and community leader Nicole Earl. KSAL Empire has built an extraordinary physical and digital presence across multiple operations and has attracted over half a million followers through her personality, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit. Nicole Earle is a developer, the founder of Dominion Community Development Corporation, and the visionary behind Billie’s Promise, a three-floor community empowerment center planned for 1837 Pennsylvania Avenue. These conversations reflect exactly what BMORENews.com was created to do: introduce our audience to entrepreneurs, visionaries, and community builders shaping the future of Baltimore and beyond. Together, these two milestones represent more than organizational growth. They demonstrate our willingness to keep learning, evolving, and using technology to strengthen the craft of storytelling. For 24 years, BMORENews.com has documented the lives, struggles, businesses, leadership, and brilliance of our beautiful melanated people—primarily here in the city of Baltimore. That mission has not changed. What has changed is our ability to tell those stories across more platforms and in more powerful ways. We are entering print while expanding premium digital storytelling. The newspaper will reach people where they live, work, worship, shop, and gather. The premium section will provide direct access to original interviews, conversations, and video content produced by an independent Black-owned media platform. Neither accomplishment happened overnight. These milestones reflect persistence, experimentation, sacrifice, faith, and the support of countless people who believe our stories deserve to be told—and that we must have the capacity to tell them ourselves. We are proud of how far BMORENews.com has come. More than anything, we are grateful for the lessons, the technology, the community, and the opportunity to continue doing this work. The inaugural print edition of BMORENews.com is…

(BALTIMORE – August 23, 2026) – Frederick Wright has spent much of his life getting things done. Before he became a veteran Urban League executive, before he developed health and quality-of-life programs across the country, and before he began advising a new generation of nonprofit leaders, Wright was a Baltimore basketball player coming of age during one of the most important periods in the city’s sports history. He did not hear about that history secondhand. He lived it. Born in East Baltimore on September 18, 1954, Wright moved into the Somerset housing projects when he was four years old. His…

(BALTIMORE — August 22, 2026) – Before basketball became a business, it was a bond. It was the sound of a ball bouncing against concrete. At Cloverdale, that sound rises from a thin sliver of land along the edge of Druid Hill Park, directly across Druid Park Drive from one of Baltimore’s greatest treasures. Cloverdale sits in a complicated little pocket of West Baltimore, where McCulloh Street and Druid Park Drive meet a steady stream of traffic moving south, east and west. Cars are always passing. The city is always moving. Yet basketball players have always known exactly how to…

(BALTIMORE – August 22, 2026) — Now, this legend story is very special. Derick Boyd is my elementary school classmate. We are the same age, born around the same time, and we have maintained our friendship for more than half a century. That alone is a blessing. Conducting these “Legends of Baltimore: Beyond the Game” interviews has helped me better understand my own childhood. Although sports was certainly a part of my story, my childhood was also deeply connected to business. While Derick and the other young ballplayers were handling the rock, I was handling newspapers. I had an AFRO…

People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it. (BALTIMORE – August 21, 2026) — I saw a comment online that rubbed me the wrong way. “That ain’t gonna work.” Maybe it was, “How is that going to work?” Whatever the exact words, the message was clear. It was the familiar voice of doubt—another person standing on the sidelines, criticizing Baltimore and questioning what our people can accomplish. I did not appreciate it. Doubt is easy from the sidelines. Building something requires vision, work, and courage. I never met William Henry “Chick” Webb. He…
