‘No La Veo’ leads the way on new EP from East Coast artist Kelvin Rey

SEAFORD, DE – The perfect blend of Pop and Island vibes come together with Kelvin Rey’s latest single “No La Veo.” With a distinct International flare, this upbeat and bouncy song shows off Rey’s Dominican heritage while tapping into his natural talent as a vocalist. His unique voice offers a gritty edge to the R&B scene to create a signature sound that is sure to make waves around the world for years to come.

“No La Veo” is the first release off a seven-song EP called “Just Wanna Be Free,” which is currently available across all streaming platforms. Rey said the project was inspired from a recent vacation in California. After releasing his first EP “Suzanne” in 2018, he decided to make a trip to Los Angeles with a close friend. The experience was both therapeutic and inspirational, and he literally wrote the first song on his new EP while flying back home from that vacation.

“It’s a completely different sound than the first project,” he said. “I was super inspired by that trip and this project really captures those feelings of being with my best friend in California and having a good time and feeling free and falling in love with a stranger that you just met. It’s much more Pop than anything else, which is the direction I’m trying to go, but it’s still rooted in R&B and Soul.”

Known in the Northeast for his modeling, this budding young musician first started in the world of music while singing in the church choir as a young boy. Songwriting wasn’t too far behind because it became an avenue of expression for him. By 2018, that journey led to a full-fledged career in music, and with the successful release of “Suzanne,” everything seemed to be falling into place. Since that time, he’s been pushing his limits and further developing a sound that he calls Soulful R&B with edgy Pop hits.

“I have this R&B twist of Pop going on,” he said. “I feel like everyone is on this Hip Hop and Trap vibe, but I’m trying to be on a mission to bring Pop back, even though I know it never really goes away. What I mean is that I’m bringing that fresh sound in my own way. I don’t sound like anyone else. I’m in my own lane and I have my own thing going on. At the end of the day, I want to be inspirational. I want my music to do more for people than just give them good-sounding music. I put so much into my music and I work so hard for it, and I’d like to be known for that hard work and perfection as a serious artist.”

Nikena – Water

Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo

New artist Nikena comes onto the global scene with a bang with debut release ‘Water’

BROOKLYN, NY – Island vibes and R&B grooves find the perfect companion with the sultry vocals of new female artist Nikena. Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, this up-and-coming diva has announced herself onto the global stage in a big way with her amazing talent. Her latest single, “Water,” is an Island and R&B fusion that perfectly captures the passion of falling in love while giving listeners a swaying rhythm that’s impossible to stay still to.

Tapping into her Jamaican roots, Nikena takes listeners on a journey to the Caribbean with this love song full of sass and joy. Exploring all the emotions that come from falling in love, the song embraces being young, having a good time, and being happy. The music video, shot on the beaches of South Florida, further captures that essence and puts Nikena fully on display as an artist the world needs to pay attention to.

“I’ve been singing since I’ve known myself, but it wasn’t until 2019 that I decided to let out my passion for music,” Nikena said. “I was never brave enough to try it before that, but there was always this thing nudging me and I knew I couldn’t ignore it any longer. Eventually, I decided I was going to record something and see where it takes me. I want my music to be known for being uplifting and energetic. That’s the reputation I want to leave behind my name.”

Nikena said that though she’s been inspired by legends such as Beyoncé Knowles, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and Bob Marley, her sound stands out as uniquely her own. She takes pride in being diverse, while also bringing her Jamaican and Caribbean heritage to the table.

“I’m just me,” she said. “I embrace every difference and similarity of my craft, and my hope is that my audience will appreciate them, as well. My experiences in life are translated into my music. At the end of the day, I want my audience to feel encouraged to go after their dreams – to love and believe in themselves.”

In addition to “Water,” Nikena said she has more singles she’s working on and planning on releasing later this year. She’s also thinking of doing a full EP in 2021.

Samomillion – Lotto

Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo

Hip Hop and Pop meld with Afrobeats and
Caribbean vibe on fun new hit ‘Lotto’

MIAMI, FL – Everybody wants to hit the lottery, and most guys in the world would say that when they find that perfect woman, it’s the equivalent of hitting the jackpot. That’s the sentiment perfectly captured by Miami-based artist SamoMillion on his latest hit single “Lotto.”

Currently streaming across all digital platforms, “Lotto” uses a little bit of Pop, a little bit of Hip Hop, a little bit of Afrobeat and a little bit of Caribbean to give listeners an upbeat and fun track with a gritty, urban vibe. It’s the perfect song to show off Samo’s signature delivery and cadence. His sound is unlike anything else out there right now, and his flow is off the charts excellent – so good that industry insiders all over the U.S. are calling attention to his original sound.

“My whole flow in general is a whole different wave,” Samo said. “When you press play on my music, you’re gonna be happy. No matter what your situation or what you’re thinking about, when you pop SamoMillion in, you’ll be happy and poppin. That’s what I want my music to be – something that gives people the motivation and the vibe to feel happy. If you’re feeling down today, you can hear my song and it’ll change your attitude.”

Born in the Little Haiti neighborhood of Florida, SamoMillion (pronounced Mil-ee-yon) had to grow up quick and become the man of the house after his father was deported back to his native country of Haiti when Samo was very young. He said he had the same struggles as most kids have when growing up in a low-income neighborhood, and music became a way for him to express the feelings that were often bottled up inside. He turned to inspiration from other artists with Haitian roots, such as Bob Marley, Wyclef Jean and Soulja Slim. As he studied and developed his sound more, he created a fusion of Soca, Reggae, Pop, Hip Hop and Afrobeats. Eventually, his hard work and natural talent landed him a partnership with independent label MotorMouthMusicGroup. Together, they’re releasing the single “Lotto,” with a music video for the song set to be released Oct. 1.

“When people hear it, they’ll assume it’s for somebody who won cash or a lot of money or a prize,” Samo said. “But it’s about a female who’s hard to come by. Finding a good female in this generation is hard. It’s like gambling. So I’m putting that into a song. When you find a good woman, this song will talk about how you’re supposed to treat her to keep her, because if you lose her, it could be a million years before you find another one.”

Samo also said he’s working on a bigger project that he hopes to release in early 2021, as well as a follow-up single to “Lotto’ called “Soul to Keep,” which will showcase a different side of his artistry.

Hellagreeno – Life Lessons

Blog, ME Blog, Music, Promo

Timely message takes center stage on new album from Hellagreeno

COLUMBUS, OH – If there’s one thing people in 2020 need, it’s motivation that they can overcome any obstacle in life. That’s the message that comes front and center with the new album from Ohio-based artist Hellagreeno. “Mr. Relentless: An Underdog Story” is a 10-song blast of energy that’s all about overcoming obstacles and not letting anything stop you from achieving the goals you’ve established.

“There are a lot of distractions that keep you from staying focused, but you’ve gotta be relentless,” Hellagreeno said. “I’ve been through a lot to make it to this point. When I first started out, I said I’m gonna make hella money and I’m gonna smoke hella weed. More than that though, I want to make real music that everyone can relate to and just make great music. All of that is starting to come true, and I want to share that story with others to show them that it can be done if you’re relentless.”

Currently available across all streaming platforms, “Mr. Relentless: An Underdog Story” features Hellagreeno’s signature style that taps into his Down South vibes while also showcasing an adept flow for any beat that comes his way. In his words, he just “gives the beat what it wants.”

“I just go with the flow,” he said. “If it’s a catchy, Down South beat, I might come with a Down South type of flow. If it’s an East Coast beat, I might come out really lyrically. I can get real fun, too. But it’ll still be Hellagreeno no matter what.”

Two singles from the project showcase this unique style particularly well. “Earned Stripes” is an upbeat, catchy vibe that listeners will be hard-pressed to get out of their ears even weeks and months after first listening. True to its name, the song talks about all the experiences that have led to where Hellagreeno is today – from walking with his wife through beating cancer, to betrayals from friends, and everything in between. It’s a song that he said gives listeners a message while at the same time keeping them moving to the beat.

The other standout single from the album is “Life Lessons,” featuring Rich Regal from Lancaster, Ohio. The two artists linked up after being invited by Ty Wheels to put together a cypher at his studio.

“We linked up and made a real song about how we grew up,” Hellagreeno said. “It’s one of those songs that just felt good making. We decided to call it ‘Life Lessons’ because we wrote our verses at the same time even though we weren’t together, and we both kind of came up with similar ideas. And when we put it together, it just felt like a real song – like one of them survival songs. It’s got a nice little country twang to it, with guitars going through the beat. Overall, it has a nice little vibe to it.”

Hellagreeno said that though he’s released a lot of music over the years, this is the first time he’s released a full album and he’s excited to see how far it could take him toward making that next step up in his career as a musician. He said he already has plans for more music in 2021.

Money Mak1n’ Mitch – No Fake$

Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo

So. Florida artist, Money Mak1n’ Mitch calls out the phoneys with new single “No Fake$”

ATLANTA, GA – Songwriter and rapper Mitchell Butler, known by his professional name Money Mak1n’ Mitch, has his ear to the streets. His music talks about what is going on with life in general and he is building those life experiences into his music.

Dropping early this month, his hot new single, “No Fake$” warns about the different types of people one encounters particularly while navigating through the music business. You have to be on the lookout for fake, two faced people who smile in your face, but have other foul intentions. Recorded at Loud House Studios in Atlanta, the track showcases Mitch’s authentic sound and clearly defined message. While not simplistic, his lyrics and flow are easy to follow. The song is also relatable, discussing something that an average person will typically go through. “No matter who you are or where you are,” Mitch said, “you’re going to experience some shady people and shady experiences through your life.”

Released in 2018, the previous single from Money Mak1n’ Mitch was the braggadocious track, “TOLDJA.” On the way up, you can look back at the people who did not believe in your business or hustle to tell them “I told you that I was going to be in this position!” While “TOLDJA” conveys a strong “Look at me now!” attitude, the new single, “No Fake$” is more contemplative. The artist talks about being able to see false people with bad intentions, and he knows that he doesn’t want them around him.

A recording artist originally from Dade and Broward Counties in Florida, Money Mak1n’ Mitch is now based in Atlanta. He is also the CEO of the BallGame Entertainment label. Mitch stands firm and grounded as a person and an artist whose writing process involves real life experiences, whether his own or those he has observed in depth. Always entertaining, Mitch is bringing home relatable issues and topics.

Check out “No Fake$,” the new single from Money Mak1n Mitch, after its release on Friday, October 2. Love it, vibe to it and share it around. The artist promises that “you will find something in there (if not the entire record) that you should be able to relate to!”

Rie Daisies – EAC1012

Blog, ME Blog, Music, Promo

Rie Daisies uses sexy/dark vibes to explore life and influence of ‘wickedest man in the world’

JACKSON, MI – The fascinating and fantastical life of Aleister Crowley is something that has been studied by fans of sub-culture all around the world for the better part of the last century. Known as an English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, painter, novelist, mountaineer, suspected spy for British intelligence, and founder of the religion of Theleema; Crowley gained widespread notoriety during his lifetime for being a recreational drug experimenter, bisexual, and an individualist social critic. For people around the world who embrace the idea of counterculture, he has become somewhat of a hero to their cause.

That sentiment comes to the forefront on the new album “Goldie Dawn” from Michigan-based artist Rie Daisies. Inspired by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn of which Crowley was a member, Rie Daisies’ album uses a “sexy/dark” vibe across nine songs to explore “Hollywood-type magic moments, including shape-shifting, sex magic, time travel, and sacrifice.”

“Crowley was once called the wickedest man in the world, and I’m using him as an allegory throughout the work,” Rie Daisies said. “As a trans-woman and first-generation Latinx American, living through the current times that we are, having been called many similar things, those words really resonated with me. I have this way of working with very macabre subject matters yet presenting them with a sense of seductiveness. That’s my eternal vibe. I’m inspired by the darker things in life, but I’m also inspired by sensuality and love and sex and those things. I wanted to fuse them together in a way that’s not too spooky and not too sexy, keeping it more approachable. If this album was a dinner party and the songs were the food, Aleister Crowley would be the centerpiece that you’re inadvertently staring at the whole time.”

The second single “EAC1012” is a perfect example of what Rie Daisies is talking about. Directly about Aleister Crowley – with some of the lyrics pulled directly from his works of poetry – the song takes an amalgamation of various sounds and styles to tell the story of Crowley’s life. With a foundation of a Trap beat, Rie Daisies incorporates an orchestra with full winds and horns section, and a cellist.

“It was a really fun track to do because it was the first time I had ever worked with a Trap beat, and I decided if we’re gonna do Trap then we’re bringing a friggin’ orchestra,” Rie Daisies said. “The musicians I worked with were so amazing. I just threw ideas at them and they ran with it. I’ve learned over the course of doing four albums that you have to put your ego in check. You have to know your strengths and weaknesses and when to find help to get the sound or style that you want. Then let people do what they’re good at and get out of the way.”

That humble approach toward collaboration also came to fruition on the debut single “A River Within” which features fellow artist Robbie Rosen, who was a previous finalist on American Idol. Usually known for her alto vocal range, Rie Daisies said she intentionally took the low harmonies in this duet with Rosen to bring about a “cool vocal changeup with the masculine voice singing higher and the female voice singing lower.”

“His voice is so dreamy and I knew he needed to take the high part,” Rie Daisies said. “That’s my sex magic song. It’s about having a very sensual experience with someone you don’t necessarily know. It’s about something that’s really deep and fulfilling and personal, even though the other person you’re with isn’t necessarily someone you love. It’s about finding your own personal power through an act of pleasure.”

When asked what she wanted her musical legacy to be, Rie responded, “When I create music, I want to create a sonic space in which other people can find themselves. I want to create music that is unique but accessible.”

Cedric B – Milk Chocolate

Blog, Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo

Cedric B’s new CD “Milk Chocolate” serving sweet sounds as well as the community

DALLAS, TX – Smooth Jazz serves as the perfect platter to serve up a bevy of sweet sounds on the latest album from Dallas veteran artist/producer/engineer Cedric B. “Milk Chocolate” is a 20-song project that combines melodic grooves with mesmerizing synths and drums alongside soothing guitar and horns, all underneath strong and unique basslines. And each song on the album is named after a sweet tasty treat, which also uniquely seems to describe the mood of the song.

Featuring some of the best musicians in the world on the cd, Cedric B offers two different versions of each song – one with vocals and one with fully produced “super smooth” instrumentals.

“This is definitely a smooth Jazz lover’s dream and must-have,” Cedric B said. “It’s an instant classic. Anybody who’s a fan of Paul Hardcastle or Helen Rogers or Kool and Leen, or even Paul Brown or Paul Jackson will love this album. It’s commercial, relatable but interestly unique and fun and I think people will really love it. You can put it on and push play and let it ride as all of the songs are strong.”

This is the 16th independent album that Cedric B has created over the course of his career. He started making music at a young age when at 8, his grandfather bought him his first drum set. After playing music in junior high and high school, Cedric B set his music dreams aside to enlist in the military. He served for several years and then decided to go to college to study audio engineering. He began honing his engineering and production skills alongside some of the most talented artists in the industry, such as Hiroshima, Paul Brown, Wayman Tisdale and more. Since that time, he’s gone on to work for Sony Distribution, Little Dog Records, Capitol Studios and CBS Radio. Eventually, he made his way back home to Dallas where he began his own multimedia company (Dream Media, LLC) and started releasing at least two albums every year. “Milk Chocolate” is his first major release, but he has more than 15 independent releases under his belt as he continues to meet his self-appointed goal of releasing a smooth Jazz album and an R&B album every year. This is a special release as Cedric B’s mother’s passing away from cancer really affected his life. For this reason, he is dedicating 30% of all proceeds from the cd to Women in Pink, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping cancer patients gain their confidence back.

“Music is just in me,” he said. “I try to make music that’s relatable but unique. I always try to incorporate live music with my electronic music, so it’s not all electronic. It has a human feel to it. I’m all about high quality. When people hear my music I’d like for them to say, ‘That producer was talented and produced high-quality music.’ ‘Milk Chocolate’ is really something special. It’s the first time I’ve been able to capture this commercial sound I’ve really been trying to master for the past seven years. I finally knocked it out of the park with this one. When people hear it, they’ll love it because it has that kind of sound that’s immediately recognizable.”

Now Defunkt – Old Enough

Blog, Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo

Built on family, compassion and community in a trying time, Now Defunkt releases their new album

At the beginning of the pandemic, three friends — Scott Macklin, Steve McMahon and James Hunter — put together a song with the expectation that they would release the track and return to their normal lives. Months later, the trio, with the help of their equally talented children and some friends, are releasing a full album titled “Skills Are Handy, Feel is Gold” under the name Now Defunkt.

Macklin described how their group came together, explaining how their one project and a camping trip to the Joshua Tree where their daughters filmed the music video for the track, led them to exchange more ideas and fully realize what is now known as Now Defunkt. “My daughter Nikko and I, James and his daughter Amaris, and Steve and his daughter Anastasia all went out to the Joshua Tree to film this music video for a song called “Death Valley, Scotty”. As we sat around the campfire, we started coming up with ideas for other songs. My friend, Steve kept nagging, ‘Hey, we should do more.’ And I figured, ‘Hey, I’ve already checked ‘write and record a song’ off my bucket list. I’m good.’ But the COVID situation gave us the opportunity to really sit down and think, and from our own places of geographic isolation, we collaboratively created the next two songs, three songs, seven songs, then we said we should put out an album!”

With such a varied group of contributors, the sound of Now Defunkt is always evolving. Often, though they define with the Rock and Alternative genres, there are hints of Funk, Folk, Motown, Choral music and more throughout their album. “One of the interesting comments that we heard while working with a choir in Venezuela, the choir director said, ‘Your music is like listening to Led Zeppelin if Tim Burton was scoring a film. Your music is really cinematic.’ Our music is cinematic in the sense of trying to create stories. But there’s energy to it. There’s a mind to our music.”

The group’s album, “Skills Are Handy, Feel is Gold”, is a collection of songs, each with its own interesting and deeply motivated background. “One of my favorites is “Old Enough,” a song that my son Case Macklin wrote. He’s 22 years old,” Macklin explained. “It’s an introspective song looking back at growing up and being told, ‘Are you old enough? You’re not old enough.’ Now that he feels that he’s old enough, he’s questioning it and it has this sort of Motown-feel good sound and he’s actually rapping on the song with a friend, Nick Edney. They’ve been friends I think since they were seven years old. So it’s like two friends doing a song together, and there’s another friend by the name of Kya Barnes who sings the background vocals in the track, who just brings a flavor to it. And then there’s this really interesting trumpet part that weaves through the song, and then Steve puts in some pretty tasty Blues guitar.”

Some of the other songs include “Teachers,” written by Nikko Macklin, which is both a tribute to the amazing teachers who have been so fundamental in her life as well as a call-out to some of the more negative parts of the school system. Anastasia McMahon also contributed “Creeping Cthulhu,” which discusses the intricacies of relationships and the negative impacts of gas lighting. Macklin described this song as having a Joy Division feel to it. The recent protests and uprisings framed the song “Big Water” asking the question, ‘what does one do with their privilege in face of systemic racism and oppression.’ There are also songs such as “The Ballad of Billy Sunday and Madam May” and “Death Valley Scotty,” which have a more historical feel to them, creating fictional stories to describe interesting and somewhat unknown historical figures.

Currently, the group is working on putting out music videos and other media for the tracks in “Skills Are Handy, Feel is Gold”, all of which are being created by members of the Now Defunkt family. They are also working on making their music as accessible as possible so that the greatest number of people has access to the work they are doing. Now Defunkt hopes to continue putting out new projects and creating as much as they can in the near future.

Now Defunkt plans a virtual release happening for October 20, 2020. Check out the music and social media platforms of Now Defunkt with the links below.

The Real Mack – Big Lit

Blog, Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo

The Real Mack returns to music after a two-year hiatus with hard-hitting single ‘Big Lit’

PHILADEPHIA, PA – The number 25 has been a monumentally impactful number in the life of young Philadelphia artist The Real Mack … but not always in the most positive of ways. When he was young, his mother was murdered when she was only 25 years old. He and his brother had a rough childhood after that with a father who was incarcerated multiple times. Then when his brother was 25, he too, was murdered. It became almost too much for him to bear, and he turned away from music and any other form of artistic expression while battling demons of depression and anxiety. But as his own 25th birthday approached, he chose to look at it as a new opportunity – a chance to change the negative cycle and create something positive.

Out of that mission came the new album “25” which is dedicated to his mother and brother, “25” explores the strange coincidences and otherworldly experiences that have come in his life and how often those things are associated with the number 25.

“It’s kind of a scary thing for me being 25 right now,” he said. “That’s what this album is about. It’s more personal than anything I’ve ever recorded. There are some commercial songs on there but mostly, it’s very personal. I think it shows off my versatility, too. I can drop a song and it can be either the artist side of me or the raw Rap side of me. I can make a song where I’m singing and it’s completely R&B and Soul, or I can turn around and make a complete opposite song that’s Trap or Hip Hop or Club.”

The Real Mack said he first got his start in music when a friend of his started a Rap group in 2009. Although Mack wasn’t included in that group, it motivated him to want to pursue music. He would go on to record a song called “Cam Newton” that got the attention of another Philly artist named PnB Rock, and their ensuing collaboration went on to rake in more than 1.5 million streams. It wasn’t long after that when his brother was murdered however, and Mack took a two-year hiatus from music. But now, at age 25, he’s making a return with the new album – starting with the hard-hitting debut single “Big Lit,” which is now available on all streaming platforms.

“It’s a Club record with an Up North but Down South kind of vibe,” Mack said. “I’m an Up North person but it has a Down South vibe, if you get what I mean. There’s a lot of energy, and I’m just basically talking about me being that guy. I’m being that bull, that dude, that big fish from the big six. I’m a big dog from 26th Street in South Philly, and this is the kind of song that when you’re lit, you get turnt up. It’s heavy.”

Mack said he hopes fans will appreciate the craftsmanship that went into creating the EP, and that he becomes known all around the world for being a high-quality hit maker.

SHAH33D – Pushhh

Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo

Bound for greatness, contemporary Hip Hop artist SHAH33D makes waves with latest single, ‘Pushhh’

DETROIT, MI – With a unique sound and untouchable lyrics, SHAH33D is doing great things in the Hip Hop industry right now. His latest single, “Pushhh” featuring Witnezz is a true testament to the amazing music that he makes.

Getting into music at a young age, SHAH33D began writing when he was only eight years old. With his father already a performer, he was always surrounded by music. “It all started with family. My grandfather was one of the members in the late 70s group ‘The Four Tops’. Their music was always on radio stations. So I just grew up watching him, staying on stage as I grew up, and I was like, ‘I want to do that. I want to have that effect on people.’ I just want to do it through the form of Hip Hop not through old school R&B, like he did.”

SHAH33D defines with the Hip Hop genre, but his music is much more than just that. “About a year ago, I did an interview and they defined my music as lyrical Trap and I thought that sounded pretty accurate so I stuck with it.”

The latest track that SHAH33D has put out is his new single “Pushhh.” The track, which was first thought up at the beginning of COVID-19, talks about pushing through all of the hard times that we, as a global community, are dealing with. “I saw that a lot of people were in a depression and a lot of people were unable to pay the bills and everything, and then I heard the track. And it just kind of started flowing. Just put yourself in a position where you can overcome any obstacle, whether it’s financial or it’s a relationship or anything like that going on. I just wanted people to hear it and just keep that upbeat feeling when you listen to it.”

When writing the lyrics for “Pushhh,” SHAH33D was quick to get his thoughts onto paper, putting the lyrics together in less than an hour. “I have a different type of creative work when it comes to different songs. Some songs may take me a week to write, some songs may take me a day. When I heard the track for “Pushhh,” it’s like I already had something in my heart. I actually wrote that song within about 30 minutes, and then I recorded it, and then me engineer, Jeff laid it down and got it mixed. Then I was like ‘You know what, its missing something. It needs a feature.’ So I enlisted another artist named The Witnezz, and we just connected that way and it just happened naturally. We didn’t cuss. We didn’t have the need to curse on it. It’s just a wholesome narrative.”

SHAH33D is always working on creating and putting out more music. Right now he is focused on promoting and supporting “Pushhh” as he hopes that his listeners will love it as much as he does.
