Bumble

On Bumble, the ball is in the ladies’ court. Similarly to the popular dating app Tinder, two people must swipe right to match. However, unlike Tinder, which can be a haven of creepy dudes asking for nudes, Bumble is set up much like Sadie Hawkins where the girl has to make the first move. Girls are given 24 hours to start a conversation with their matches from the time the connection is formed, otherwise the match disappears forever. However, men have the opportunity to extend one match per day for an extra 24 hours. Bumble is free and available for iPhones and Androids.

From the Westside of Atlanta comes John Whitfield, more commonly known as DC Young Fly, a comedian who is making moves via social media with his hilarious video clips. With more than 1.8 million Instagram followers and more than half a million Vine followers, it’s safe to say the 22-year-old has reached stardom. Last September, he even gained notoriety on Twitter from a feud with Kevin Hart over his roast of the “Let me explain” comedian. Recently, DC Young Fly uploaded his mixtape “Supplyin Pressure” on livemixtapes.com and on his YouTube channel of the same name.
