Draya Michele Helped Two Teen Girls Avoid A Potential Predator

The “If You See Something, Say Something” slogan has gained popularity in recent years as organizations are hoping that the general public will begin to speak out against instances of violence, bullying, harassment, and potential human trafficking. Draya Michele shared on Instagram recently that she had a moment that required someone to step up to the plate, so she decided to take the initiative instead of waiting on someone else to make the move.

The reality star wrote on social media that while she was out, she watched as a man attempted to lure in two young girls with promises of money and popularity. “So today I witnessed a man try to persuade 2 teenage girls to be interested in him,” she wrote on her Instagram Story. “He used his flashy car, his association with youtubers, offered them investments on their business, and expensive gifts. All in one convo.”

Draya Michele went on to say that the event made her “utterly disgusted,” so she sent the girls a note via the waiter at the restaurant they were both patronizing. “I prayed they received it because I had to leave,” said Draya. In the note, she wrote, “Dear young girls, Please do not listen to that man. He is too old and not as connected as he seems. Be careful. @drayamichele.” She wanted to leave her Instagram name “so they could somewhat trust me.”

The girls sent her a DM, thanking her for the note and Draya responded, warning them against potential predators who will use false promises to reel them in while encouraging them to follow their dreams. “I’m so thankful you left that note. he made us think he was big sh*t,” one of the girls wrote to Draya. “I was blinded by it. so thankful for uu!” Swipe through below to read the story and messages in their entirety.

E.G. Phillips unveils where silence speaks the loudest on new release “Empathy for the Night Fly”

The mood of E.G. PHILLIPS’s “Empathy for the Night Fly” is instantly cinematic, dark, introspective, and frozen in time. The track sounds like a scene from a late-night club where everything slows down just enough for feelings to come out. The arrangement is jazz-like in that it lets each part breathe. The arpeggiating Rhodes piano comes and goes, giving the impression that the music is thinking, as if it’s moving.

The song is really about recognition, which is when you hear something in someone else’s voice that reminds you of your own experience. It’s subtle, almost fragile, but it has a big effect on people. That emotional connection is what holds the piece together.

That choice seems deliberate, even defiant. It asks the listener to pay attention differently, not just passively. Every break is a part of the story. E.G. Phillips doesn’t just make the mood; he keeps it going. In that space, “Empathy for the Night Fly” becomes a quiet, powerful look at memory, connection, and shared feelings.
