Love Canafuego Finds Inspiration Through Pop Music And Encouragement From Her Family

Music, Videos

BOSTON, MA—Love Canafuego finds inspiration through pop music and encouragement from her family.

While Love, and her brother Joyful Canafuego, are still in grade school, both have learned production and various instruments to create “Champ of Wealth,” a track she hopes can help her someday reach the Hot 100 and that speaks blatantly about money.

“We wrote ‘Champ of Wealth’ two years ago. The whole idea is to bring reality to how people handle money,” says Love. “‘Champ of Wealth” also includes her mother and father as writers, “Our songs are not just about everyday life, but art and feelings that people go through in the music business and in everyday life,” she explains. Her other single “Inflation Comes with Destruction,” features Joyful on vocals and is another take the family has on money and capitalism. Love hopes that if she becomes famous, she can use some of her earnings to help others.

Love tells that she wants to make music to make people dance, knowing she’d wanted to be in entertainment at an even younger age while constantly singing and dancing no matter where the Canafuego family goes. “Champ of Wealth” shows her knowledge of monetization and popular radio hits, but also plays with beats similar to old school disco and ‘80s pop, a la Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean,” without even recognizing it.

Some of Love’s favorite artists include Lil’ Nas X, Dua Lipa, Justin Bieber, and other hitmakers—the usual pop idols for most modern children, but Love’s focus outside of homeschooling goes into listening and emulating those sounds. Together as a family they write songs and compose lyrics using synthesizers, keyboards, drums, and guitar. Love is also a fan of Tina Turner and Cyndi Lauper.

When in school, she enjoys any courses relevant to the arts and enjoys drawing.

What other goals does Love have other than getting On-Air with Ryan Seacrest? Getting to the Grammy’s.

“I really want to sing, dance, and perform globally. I love my fans, but I want more fans to support me, and listen to me, and to share it with the world.

Carriesa Shares Fresh Single About Raw Emotions, Finding Redemption

Music, Videos

HOUSTON, Tex. — Who hasn’t had struggles in their life? Who hasn’t felt insignificant in a world of trial and tribulation?

Acclaimed singer-songwriter, producer and recording artist Carriesa addresses these feelings in her new single “Radar” when she asks, “Am I on your radar?”

“This song is not the typical song you hear, especially nowadays,” Carriesa said. “Everybody likes the energetic pop pop kind of songs that you can play. This song I wanted to touch people who are in that mental state, and I just became a big advocate of mental health. 

“In the song when I sing ‘Am I on your Radar,’ it’s really me speaking to God, God can you pull me out of this? I know I’ve strayed away, I know I’ve done things I wasn’t supposed to, I’ve strayed away from your light, that kind of thing.”

Carriesa first got into music as a kid growing up in a musical family and the daughter of a preacher. She started playing the piano at age 4 and was playing in church services at age 9, and continues playing in church to this day.

She went to school at MediaTech Institute, a school with campuses in Houston and Dallas that focuses on the music industry.

“We learned engineering, song-writing, things like videography, doing voice overs,” Carriesa said. “We had to build a mini-amplifier and doing some repairs, stuff like that on your instruments. It really grabs every aspect of the industry. 

“After I graduated from there that’s when I kind of started taking off on my own. I didn’t realize until after I graduated, writing songs is poetry, Writing in diaries and things like that I did growing up as a little girl and I turned most of that stuff into songs, especially on my last EP that I released a couple of years ago. I just decided to go full force into it when I moved to Houston.”

Carriesa started releasing music in 2018, but being something of a perfectionist, her songs don’t get released quickly or real frequently, but when they are released, listeners know she’s put everything she has into them.

She worked with another singer-songwriter, Kenneth Clark, when she started working on “Radar” back in 2019.

“I asked him to help me write this song and I told him what I was dealing with at the time,” Carriesa said. “I was going through a lot of depression and it was really bad. I was in a really, really dark place so he helped write the chorus.”

Things seemed to get worse for Carriesa when she lost her record label. She said her emotions can be felt in the tones and sounds in “Radar.”

“That took a huge mental toll on me and put me into an even darker place,” she said. “It’s a really tough situation but I felt this was an appropriate time to release this song. I don’t know if you can feel it or see it when you listen to this song but it’s a very dark series of emotions spiritually.”

Carriesa said the song has a message too.

“When you’re in a vulnerable and dark place like that, it’s ok to speak out about it,” Carriesa said. “You don’t have to hold it in. I just want people to know that if you’re in a vulnerable or dark place, and you feel like you can’t trust anyone or you can’t get out of it, it’s ok to say I need help.”

Over the next year, Carriesa said she is working toward making her Grammy dreams come true. At the end of the day though, it isn’t about the award and accolades — Carriesa cares about her art and helping people heal through music.

“I would love for people to know that we are all flawed, and it’s okay to make mistakes,” she said. “You don’t have to live in fear and dwell on your mistakes. God can use your mistakes for your benefit. Everything is going to work out for you, and life is a journey.”

Trey P – Belong To Me

Trey P Puts His Life Story Into His Melodic Hip-Hop

By Gabby Cast

A little over a decade after Cyndi Lauper released her hit single “Time After Time,” singer and rapper Trey P was a child growing up in Chicago and overhearing the ‘80s pop track in his
household. His reworking of the single is now gaining attention, connecting his personal journey to listeners who might not directly relate, but can feel its resonance through his lyrics and songwriting
methods.

“Not only is it just opening up about me and where I come from, it's also universal. I get a lot of people telling me about how it helps them throughout the day when they listen to it,” says Trey P. “It's a very universal song and I feel like it will go places the others haven’t.” Trey P says that the song is his own version of what he was experiencing growing up, and his personal journey of life-lessons surrounded by a difficult environment while his aunt and grandmother tried keeping him out of trouble. He has been inspired by all types of music, more specifically New Orleans hip-hop veterans such as Hot Boys and member Lil Wayne’s subsequent solo career, but creating the music itself is what ultimately helps and inspires Trey P to write expressive tracks.

“There's a lot of things I still have a hard time getting past, looking over, or trying to still deal with on an everyday basis. I wake up and think about this every day and I've been learning to try to conflict, but it just feels better when I let it out on a track or on a musical platform,” he explains. “My writing process comes from just experience and things that I went through and things that I've seen. Even with songs where I'm talking about females, or my experiences with other females, I have to get out to things that I still think about. It's just helpful to get it out on music.

The music brings it out of me and when it comes out it's like magic.” Trey resides and travels from Kansas, Chicago to Atlanta frequently to record music when he’s not in his home studio. He’s currently writing a solo track for a friend while brainstorming a new single to follow-up “Time After Time.” Trey P has released 5 singles, and is looking to release a few more; his most recent tracks include “EZ,'' detailing his personal growth, and “Give It to You,” that talks about relationships. Other singles deal with tragedy and rising from the ashes of one's past while acknowledging their story.

“Humble” will be another upcoming single, while he’s set to play a show in Kansas City, KS. Trey P has been performing since he was 17-years-old, including an opening slot for R&B singer Inayah.

To whether or not he’d collaborate with Cyndi Lauper if her team reached out? “Of course, That’s not even a question. Yes.”

Trey P is on the right track for his sound, but not without a sound that allows him to look back at his journey.

Make sure to stay tuned in to Trey P on various platforms for new music, visuals and social posts.

TMike Gives Some Perspective On Latest Single “Already Made”

ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos

Musician TMike brings together his life experience and lifelong love for music to make feel-good, genuine, and genre-meshing hip-hop that lives up to his passion.

Growing up in the western Florida city of Fort Myers, The singer and rapper’s upbringing was surrounded by soul music, resonating with household chores while listening to Marvin Gaye. Fort Myers’ fickle music scene rivaled with Tymichael’s look at his career on a global scale. This pushed his drive and a re-location to Miami—now cataloging a collection of over 300 songs and claiming he could release a song weekly for the next three years.

On TMike’s latest track “Already Made It,” working alongside engineer Hero, he’s looking in retrospect of everything overcome to reach this point in both his career and his personal life, feeling as if he’s made it. Not so much on the Billboard Hot 100, yet, but on his own terms—and with a humble smile on his face.

“I was just thinking about everything that I’ve done so far and the places I’ve been to, the trips I’ve taken, the people I’ve met, people that have influenced me, a lot of things I overcame,” says TMike. “Even where I’m at right now, I don’t feel like I’m nowhere near where I truly want to be, but the place I am is just a blessing. I feel like I’m blessed to be out there that’s already made it.”

While “Already Made It” is a feel-good anthem for anyone looking at perspective, most of TMike ’s tracks have upbeat and motivating cadence, and have reached over 500,000 streams on Spotify—showing that his sound is infectious and lively, and looking to write music for everyone and every genre that ranges in influence from Pink Floyd to Beethoven.

“I just want to sound authentic and I want you to do the authenticity and all of my music,” explains TMike . “So if you don’t like one song, there’s five that you are in love with.”

While TMike has made it with his latest single, another single release is in the works. But he wants “Already Made It” to marinate in its future success, much like the musician himself–whose persistence is the key to his hit-making motions, and with a confidence that may soon make him a household name that loves music just as much as his listeners.
