Our Hip Hop cover model is Paulie, a 26-year-old Puerto Rican Pisces from New York City. Many of our New York readers may recognize Paulie as the “shots boy” who hands out shots to customers on Wednesday nights at the Stonewall Bar. In addition to his job there, he also works as a personal trainer and massage therapist at the New York Sport Club on 86th and Lexington. Paulie is a self-described people person who is friendly and enjoys talking with just about anyone. In his spare time, Paulie enjoys working out and dancing—especially to Hip Hop! In fact, he’s a big fan of Hip Hop music and his favorite artist is currently rapper 50 Cent. His favorite track is the Busta Rhymes/Mariah Carey single “I Know What You Want.”.
