If “AIM” is the […]

I know that when this Texas native has been quiet for awhile, he’s brewing something good…and I was right! After going a few months without any new content, Travis Garland and his #tgtuesdays are here to change the game!
Long gone are the days of TRL and when MTV would play music videos during hours that people are actually awake.
