RichardTheRockStar Grinds Out New Era Hip Hop with the Rockstar Gang 

JACKSON – Northern California native RichardTheRockStar (RTRS) has always been making music his way. From messing around with instruments in elementary school to home producing licks at age 15, RTRS creates music with no rules. Now, the artist, writer, producer, and businessman is making a splash with “Mobbin” as he redefines the hip-hop genre.  

“With New Era Hip Hop, we try to be culturally diverse and include people and sounds and add influences from all walks of life,” explained RTRS. “When hip hop came out, it just clicked on where it pulled its roots from. But it got to a point where people stopped trying to be original as much. Then it was cut-and-paste from there. We are trying to change that.” 

The “we” refers to is the Rockstar Gang, comprised of friends, Baked Beka and Jshxtta. The trio creates an eclectic mixture of sounds against New Era Hip Hop that forms an organic and unique sound showcasing their diversity and rebelliousness.  

Baked Beka, a social media influencer from the Bay Area, is a model and street survivor who has started rapping with the group. A longtime friendship with RTRS has blossomed into a confident and sassy rapper that fans adore.  

Jshxtta brings his talents to the studio by experimenting and mixing music to create the group’s authentic Bay Area sound. Coupled with RTRS’s energy and persistence, the Rockstar Gang’s sound is defined by trust, experimentation, and passion.  

“We all are free to be who we are,” said RTRS. “That’s the most important thing of being an artist. No matter what life puts in front of you, no matter what opposition, no matter what kind of scary circumstances, you must stick to yourself and your heart. When you do that, you build something more powerful than any of that. And that’s what the Rockstar Gang is.” 

Showcasing their talents, the trio’s latest single, “Mobbin,” is gaining popularity on streaming platforms, and its high-energy music video continues the Rockstar Gang’s story. 

“‘Mobbin’ is a vision that we’ve had as friends for a long time and just sticking to the plan to what works to the money,” explained RTRS.  

The “vision” is what sets “Mobbin” apart from other songs. It is the unity of the Rockstar Gang and their talents that light up during the track.  

“The way that we come together, especially on the third verse where we start going back and forth with what happened and sharing it, is telling a story together,” he said. “If you watch our videos in order, it’s a storyline, almost like a TV series, but it’s with our lives. You watch it, and it all ties together.” 

Their story began with the debut single, “Bananas,” and continues to showcase each artist’s unique attributes that they bring to the gang. Instead of being the cookie-cutting group where one artist is featured, the Rockstar Gang turns the spotlight on each member. Much like the Black-Eyed Peas, where the group comprises diverse members, the Rockstar Gang has a mix of talent, styles, and up-tempo energy that blends for music perfection.  

With six videos “in the tank” and awaiting release, RTRS said the gang is gearing up to take their music to the people as the touring dates crank up. Future dates in California, Arizona, and Oklahoma are just the beginning as they take New Era Hip Hop to fans.  

“I hope people enjoy what we put out there and are entertained by it,” he said. “We’re just trying to make something that people can sit back and smile, or at least just forget about their life, for a minute.”

Becktoria’s Latest Single ‘I Like It Like That’ Climbs the Charts 

LOS ANGELES – Model, actress, and artist Becktoria is putting her mark on the music industry with her latest single, “I Like It Like That,” – and fans are loving it.  

Born in Burma, raised in England, and now residing in California, Becktoria was influenced by Celine Dion, Sia, and The Chainsmokers. Mix that trio, and you have a unique new sound second to only Becktoria’s pop and indie sound.  

Her latest single, “I Like It Like That,” reached the Billboard Top 40 Indicator Chart, charted on numerous other charts, and got regular airplay on web and radio channels. Internationally, Becktoria is quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with in the industry as she blazes a path destined for stardom.  

“My goal in life is to help people to find their happiness and inner peace and just love life,” said Becktoria. “Make the most of life and live every day to its fullest.” 

Spoken from experience, Becktoria’s past includes a successful modeling career that earned her beauty pageant titles, a Bachelor’s degree in biomedical sciences, and a Master’s degree. If that was not enough, Becktoria has worked with artists across the globe, which has propelled her popularity worldwide.  

When asked why she chose music instead of acting or modeling, she replied, “I’ve always been passionate and been inspired by music. I studied music at a young age and played multiple instruments in many orchestras and ensembles, including singing in the choir and the school pop band. Halfway through studying biomedical sciences, I realized I wanted to pursue music professionally. I wanted to do something more creative and how I could express my feelings. Music was always there for me.” 

Experimenting with her first EP, Becktoria based her songs on love and breakups by using metaphors throughout each song. “It was based on my dreams, and then I just related it to love and real life.” 

However, her latest EP, “Goodbye & Hello,” demonstrates her growth as an artist, as fans have deemed it her best yet. The straightforward lyrics are coupled with pop melodies and Becktoria’s signature sound, making each track relatable. The entire EP is taken from Becktoria’s life.  

“The EP has a couple of different meanings, like saying goodbye to my relationship and hello to a new relationship. All the songs are structured in order. So, the first thing is, I said goodbye to my love, and then the next one is finding new love and loving love. And then going through some problems with the new relationship and then breaking up again,” she explained. 

Looking back at the EP and its five songs, Becktoria knows her fans can relate to saying farewell to a relationship and going through the sadness and joy of finding new love and the roller coaster of emotions it brings.  

Taking inspiration from artists such as Katy Perry, Bebe Rexha, and Lizzo, Becktoria hopes to inspire listeners with her music. Her infectious pop and indie-influenced sounds are perfect for the dance floor, singing in the car, slow dancing with your lover, and looking ahead to your best life yet to be lived.

Kayos showcases chameleon-like ability to fuse any sound and style on upcoming new EP ‘Stay Tuned’ 

LOS ANGELES, CA – What comes from the heart, reaches the heart. And if there’s one thing fans of Kayos’ music can be certain, it’s that he creates heart-felt music. 

Born Demontray Bullard, this Los Angeles-based artist is a luminary in the making. Crafted from the struggle and grind, this young up-and-coming musician is wiser than his years and stronger than the eroded tears of the mothers and grandmothers of his neighborhood in South Central LA. His state name, Kayos (pronounced “chaos”), is a deliberate departure from his birth name. He adopted the moniker as a nod to the environment from which he evolved. 

“That’s my upbringing, but not my pathology,” he said. “As artists, we have to be real about the stories we tell and the pictures we pain through our lyrics. There are too many people out here rapping about stuff that’s not their reality, and that’s reckless. Tell your truth, and those who can relate to that truth will relate to your lyrics. You can bridge genres and communities through music and lyrics, and that’s my goal.” 

That transparent outlet of artistic freedom is set to challenge minds and connect with an ever-widening global fanbase when he released his latest EP “Stay Tuned” this fall. Featuring different style and vibes from his deep well of talent, the project is one that ties together all the various pieces of his personality and past experiences. It’s a sneak peek of what’s to come in the future, he said, while at the same time serving as a highly entertaining body of work. 

The debut single from the project is a song called “CeCe Song,” which is set to drop by mid October. “CeCe Song” is an up-tempo, good party vibe that talks about the LA life while fusing together that hot Atlanta sound with West Coast swag. Produced by super producer RicK Rude, the song showcases Kayos’ standout style and impressive flow, and demonstrates an otherworldly ability to pain pictures with his lyrics. 

“I want to expose who I am and what I stand for, but also be able to paint a picture that other people can relate to,” he said. “Whether it’s pain or joy or something that’s motivational – I want you to feel every song. If it’s a party song, when you hear it I want you to feel like you want to party. If there’s something testing my life and I rap about it, I want you to be able to resonate with it right when you hear it. That’s the reason I set the EP the way I did – so that you get a sample of six different styles and sounds and see that my style is not tied into one genre.” 

Anyone who listens to Kayos’ music will discover that he’s an artist with a personality with a lot of nuance. He’s someone who can be different depending on the environment, and his music reflects that. He’s like a chameleon, and the songs he creates reflects that lifestyle.
