Marijuana Mogul Ed Forchion Goes 4/20 Crypto During Miami Tech Month Releasing His NJWeedman NFT Collection

Industry Spotlight

Miami, FL – With a marijuana themed empire based in Trenton, NJ and Miami, FL, marijuana mogul, activist and gangapreneur, Ed “NJWeedman” Forchion, is blowing smoke into higher realms. Forchion is releasing his NJWeedman NFT Collection during Miami Tech Month on the heels of the Miami NFT Week conference. The collection drops on 4/20, the internationally celebrated cannabis holiday.  Forchion will mint three different collections on the Rarible NFT Marketplace (https://rarible.com/), available through Ethereum. The collection can be viewed at http://NjweedmanNFT.com.

The NJWeedman NFT Collection will fall under the categories of Support, Yacht and Membership, with each NFT purchase designated accordingly. A single “Support” category NFT will be made available on 04/20 with the proceeds supporting Forchion’s endeavor to produce his streaming platform shows. The 4/20 NFT will continue to stay open for sale with different projects and initiatives being announced by Forchion.  The “Yacht” NFT will grant yearly access for two people on Forchion’s Cannabis Cruise line.  The “Membership” NFT will have multi-utility and serve as different forms of payment for cover charges for parties and special events.

“With my storefront, NJWeedman’s Joint in Trenton, now owned and operated by my daughters, and The Joint of Miami, the cannabis friendly art and music lounge, under the direction and ownership of my son and niece, I have more time on my hands to expand and pursue different interests.  So, I’m making the leap into NFT’s as a viable means for fund raising. NFT art is all the rage right now and I’ve had several inquiries for NJWeedman NFT’s. Given my long-standing legacy, it seems like a great next adventure,” offers Forchion.

Ed “NJWeedman” Forchion has a zealous history of fighting and documenting the inequities in the cannabis industry for over three decades now.  As one of the first Black activist in the movement, dating back to the early 90’s, Forchion has spent over 1200 days in prison, fighting for the right to smoke and sell pot. Forchion asserts that new laws are being set to criminalize growers and small legacy vendors like him, while awarding billion-dollar contracts to corporations for the sales, distribution, and marketing of the plant.

In the past, Forchion has been vehemently retaliated against by the powers that be and his battle with politicians, the police, the courts, even the DEA are all public record. His legend has grown exponentially like the plant, with mainstream media like NBC News in New York, ABC-TV Nightline, Cheddar News, VICE News, MSNBC, and most recently The Philadelphia Inquirer, all documenting his affairs.  As the co-founder of NJWeedman’s Joint in Trenton, NJ and the founder of The Joint of Miami in Florida, he is a legacy market success story in the making.

Oregon’s elite Cannabis Farms Companies recruit rising artist CasinoATX to release his very own Strain

Industry Spotlight

Over the course of the last decade, “rapper weed” has gone from a tier of potency to a lucrative and all too logical brand expansion for some of hip-hop’s most industrious stoners. In fact, many didn’t even wait for states to legalize recreational purchase and use to cash in on the early phases of rap’s “green rush.” Veterans like Snoop Dogg and Berner were amongst hip-hop’s first (and frankly, most predictable) founders of cannabis companies.

Now, as the industry enters a new era driven by celebrity activations, generally destigmatized consumption, and growing demands for federal legalization, other longtime cannabis connoisseurs are entering the market and developing some of the strongest flowers ever smoked.

CasinoATX collabs with popular Oregon Cannabis Companies “Funk Extracts” & “Happy Daddy Gardens” to deliver his very own cannabis extract “Cherry Mints” with a obligatory key focus for top Quality production. Available in most Oregon Dispensaries.

Casino’s signature strain shares a lot of the rapper’s strengths. A powerful, dense, and tranquilizing smoke, the OG kush offshoot packs a round of punches in just few pulls. On top of being an intensely pleasant smoke, the strain reportedly aids with Anxiety, Arthritis aches, as well as a range of neurological conditions. Enjoy your Power Plant with the Cherry Mints very own soundtrack.

Introducing New Pop Artist MAXX

Industry Spotlight

The diminutive singer-songwriter Maxx is a pop artist originally from Ocean Township, New Jersey. She began singing, performing, and writing at a young age, but never viewed it as her career because she was pursuing horseback riding; she loves horses. During her childhood, she encountered traumatic experiences which affected her mental health. After suffering from depression and anxiety, in 2017, Maxx began to write about her feelings and experiences. That’s when her music became her therapy. Music saved her life, and it kept her prevailing through challenging times. Once she found her love for music, she knew she had to pursue it for the rest of her life.

As Maxx grew older, she began analyzing successful female artists’ careers and inspiration, mainly in the pop spaces. She identified with artists like Taylor Swift, Amy Winehouse, Billie Eilish, and Ariana Grande. When she finally moved to Los Angeles, she sought to find unique ways to create a fresh sound and brand that would be groundbreaking and compelling while allowing her favorite singers and other artists to serve as inspiration.

Maxx’s growing fanbase reflects her seemingly untapped talent. Her passion-filled drive is what is behind her desire to share her voice and perform for new crowds. Maxx has already released five singles, “Thank You For That,” “Old School,” Breaking Out,” “Lover Boy,” and “No Good At Love.” Her unique style, sound, and authenticity have helped her carve her lane as an artist. When she’s not practicing her music, ever the introvert, Maxx also loves to spend time with her horses and enjoys being around nature.

Maxx is currently working on new music to share with her fans and planning to release her debut album early next year. She genuinely enjoys engaging with her fans and establishing a deeper connection with them. She hopes to reach as many people as possible through her story and music. She has developed a unique sound and creates moments to remember in her videos and while performing. Maxx hopes the stories she tells in her music will help others feel less lonely and encourage them to find strength through their passions…as she has.

C Glizzy x Foolio “Six & Glizzy”

Blog, Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos

C Glizzy has released his new street anthem, “Six & Glizzy” We can’t wait to hear more from him as he gears up for his next release. Twitter: @cglizzycglizzy and Instagram: @cglizzy.

Who Is C Glizzy?

Blog, Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos


C. Glizzy is a South Florida rapper who made headlines in 2021 after being shot in his eye (Complex, Hip-Hop Dx, Heavy). C Glizzy is also well known for his relationship with the late XXXtentacion, as well for his debut project called Numb the Pain in April 2019. This tragic situation would have ended the average persons career, but Glizzy came back with a new focus on life and a renewed energy with his music. Now, to keep his momentum going, Glizzy preps his new single titled “Six & Glizzy” featuring Foolio. The record and video are available across all digital streaming platforms.

The amount of talent to come out of Florida in recent years has been quite impressive, especially with the assistance of the internet and social media. The distinctive Florida bounce has been hard to miss following the tone set in the 90’s from the likes of Trina and Trick Daddy. Newcomers, such as rap artist C Glizzy who comes from Pompano Beach, Florida, is adding to this soundscape while also bringing a fresh new perspective to the industry.  

What’s most impressive about C Glizzy’s artistry is his ability to deliver a sound that is raw and uncut but has fans still bobbing their heads along to it. His most recent project Numb the Pain is a prime example of this, which makes it hard to believe that he’s only been rapping professionally for under three years. He talks about the experience he faced after getting shot in the head, which gave him not only a new focus on life, but a renewed energy for his music. C Glizzy, whose birth name is Christian Moore, draws a lot of inspiration from rappers like DMX, Chief Keef, and 2 Pac who found their own ways of expressing their pain through music.

The young rapper notes the importance of having a plan and following it through. “If you gone be out here in the world, don’t be half stepping,” he explains. “You better have a plan.” His plan to take over the industry is in full motion with him already opening for charting artists like Polo G, Lil Tecca, Smokepurpp, and Lil Mosey. While he’s been able to perform across the nation, Florida is still true to his heart and he’s preparing to release an EP titled Florida Boyz with an intent to bring together the hottest up and coming artists out of Florida.

His new single “Six & Glizzy” featuring Foolio is now available on all DSP’s. Click here to listen and watch the preview below!
