New Music Alert: CWBY – “Trap Star”

Today CWBY releases his new single “Trap Star” a high energy and multi-genre spanning track that ties in the worlds of Country Rock music and Hip-Hop under one roof. 

Raised in Florida and first getting his start when he was 19 as a promoter at an EDM club, the now California residing rapper/singer CWBY has grown tremendously since his early years in music expanding from promoting to being an artist himself. 

“My first experience with music was when I was 19 and working as a promoter in a big EDM club in Tampa and the DJ asked if I wanted to be an MC/ Hype man for him. I fell in love with being on stage and walking around helping hype everyone throughout the night,” CWBY said.

While CWBY’s new single “Trap Star” relates to the world of the trap, the new single also has undertones of love and relationships that make this song something everyone can relate to on a personal level.  CWBY first entered the music world as a rapper, but before ever releasing a song, he discovered he had some talent as a singer as well. He quickly changed his style, combining the two forms of vocal delivery to further his musical outreach. Experimenting with various sounds and musical melodies, CWBY’s new musical flavor is rapidly catching speed across the country.

“This first single is kind of a love song mixed with a little bit of my personality as well. If you listen to the intro I am talking about basically every relationship I have been in or tried to enter. I love being with someone and being in love, but I tend to push them away because of my lifestyle that is always moving and busy,” CWBY said. 

Venturing into a full blown cannabis business in addition to his music, CWBY lives a fast paced life that doesn’t leave much room for relationships.

“The hook is telling the audience why I can’t be with them. I live a fast paced life when it comes to business and music. I barely have time for myself let alone a relationship. I am completely independent and trying to figure out this industry by myself and also own a successful company and brand. Between the two I am always working and stressed out, but when I have free time I prefer to be alone and working on small, but important things like vocal lessons, piano lessons, fitness and Spanish lessons,” he added. 

Produced by “Plantez” who is the same DJ who gave him his first gig as a hype man, CWBY lights up the screen in the O Soloman directed video leaving fans hopeful for more content in the future. 

In the up and coming months, he plans to release more tracks, pushing him closer towards his dreams and to becoming the next Billboard charting artist.

“In the near future I want to be performing at the highest level on the biggest stages. The idea of having thousands of people singing along to a song I wrote in my kitchen gives me goosebumps. To share that moment with them would be incredible. I truly believe I can get there too. It’s my goal to inspire people who just want to be masters of their destiny whether that’s being an entrepreneur, an artist, or just to make a better life for yourself and those around you. I’ve been through a lot. Heart breaks, I’ve been screwed over countless times, and just working hard, doing good business, being a man of your word and staying loyal to people, it’ll get you there.”

New Video Alert: Radeem – “Muddy Waters”

Today Houston bred rapper Radeem releases his new single “Muddy Waters” which is currently spinning on radio in New York on HOT 97 and on Sirius/XM’s Shade 45. 

Recalling memories of family and fun and making music as early as 16 years old, Radeem describes Houston as a city that he hopes to inspire and bring awareness to the different obstacles that many of people face. 

“Whether it’s a cup of promethazine syrup or it’s fear of breaking away from a toxic environment, it’s very possible to make it across your Muddy Waters,” Radeem said. 

Gearing up for a big Halloween performance along with Lil Boosie, MoneyBaggYo and YellaBeezy, Radeem knows that this new single is perfect for the Texas scene.  

“Today’s Texas music scene is still striving with artists like Dallas’ Yella Beezy and Houston legends Z-Ro and Slim Thug still making relevant and good music. Together with a new wave of Houston rappers like Sauce Walka, Maxo Kream, Meg the Stallion, and Travis Scott, Texas culture is still one of the biggest influencers in Hip-Hop today,” he said. 

While COVID has the world shut down, Radeem has no plans of slowing down adding a lot of recording and promoting to the agenda along with his Halloween show and work with New York industry insider Smit BDM.

“Me and the team plan to keep running the numbers up on Muddy Waters while campaigning the current singles until we create a heavy demand for a project. We also plan to keep recording new material to have enough to choose from in the mission control room,” Radeem said.

New Music Alert: Xay Capisce -“Shottas” Ft Boosie

Recently Alabama rapper Xay Capisce re-released his single titled, “Shottas,” taken from his project ON GOD 2 that debuted in 2019.  

After taking some time off music to sort out some family issues, Xay Capisce is back in action for a collaboration with Lil Boosie that features a music video for the fans. 

“I coined myself the #SlumGod” Xay Capisce said. “I didn’t focus on radio before but now that the people are focused on me, they need to see and hear me all over, so I’m looking to be on most of your local stations really soon! We have constant spin on satellite radio and it’s getting stronger.”

Bred in a small Southern town that loves Southern Trap and what he calls “hustle music,” Xay Capisce says trap is the most listened to music in his small town that’s roughly 90 minutes away from Atlanta and just over the state line. 

“I came up listening to Boosie and so it was only right we do a record together. And Shottas being one of my favorite movies, I made the song and visual as relative to the movie as possible,” Xay said. 

The track was produced by Beats The God and the music video was directed by Heatwave Global making sure this was a video the fans could appreciate for years to come. The Capisce LP will include production from GRAMMY Award nominated Priority Beats, 808Mafia, Cicero, BeatZ Da God and Arman to name a few. 

“They did great camera work for this video, this record is big for me because it’s off my last project titled ON GOD 2 that did really well, so we had to re-release this track with Boosie as a single even though the new album is on the way – it is big for me.” Xay Capisce said. “The next few months is all consistency!! We have my next 2 records dropping which are titled DEAR MR.46 (WE THE PEOPLE) which is a very politically motivated and charged record that is addressing the injustices and oppressions we face on a daily basis and what I have been facing since a youth born and raised in the heart of the south Alabama. We also have a club record that’s dropping at almost the same time titled RUN IT which is a heavy bass laden and uptempo track that makes you feel like a boss and running shit in whatever you do! So we working! My team keeps me busy!”

After fighting for his life in the judicial system for almost a decade, Xay Capisce has got a lot to say.

“I’ve been home barely 3 years so I want them to tap into my story and relate, so they can get an idea of exactly who they listening to,” Xay Capisce explained.

With a radio promo run on the East Coast and then off to the Midwest and doubling back to the South before heading out west Xay Capisce is a busy artist with plans to reach out and meet the fans across the world including in NYC where he connected with Smit BDM and industry insider and dot connector who helped him earn Shade45 airplay.

“My mission is to let all the hustlers and kings know that it’s possible to get out the slums doing something that you truly believe in!!! And the slums believed in you enough to be king! So now I’m transferring that same energy to the game. Myself and Drumma boy have an album coming titled “ALAMEMPHIS” to symbolize the union between Alabama and Memphis and what’s coming out of that!

‘True To The Game 2’ Hits Theatres Tonight, Vivica A. Fox and Columbus Short Host ATL Premiere [Photos]

Columbus Short and Vivica A. Fox were in the A Thursday night at Phipps Plaza AMC to host the premier screening of the crime drama True To The Game 2.

Executive Produced by Manny Halley, the sequel to the 2017 hit film – based on the urban fiction novels written by Teri Woods, opens today, Nov. 6.

Cast on hand for the viewing included stars Andra Fuller, Erica Peoples, Jeremy Meeks, Starletta DuPois, Iyana Halley, Teddy Rux (Black Ink Crew NY), as well as the film’s director Jamal Hill.

Other attendees included Pierre “Pee” Thomas of Quality Control Music, Barton Fitzpatrick (“The Chi”), and Woods herself.

Vivica A. Fox, who was already a fan of the books, explained how she first became involved in the series.

“I was actually approached by my very good friend Columbus Short who said, ‘Yo, were doing Terry Woods’ True to the Game book.’

I was like Terry!!! Oh my God! I’ve been a huge fan since the book first came out and I wish I had the power back then to get it done. But when Columbus contacted me and said we want you to be a part of this… We and Manny independently got things done…

‘Cause this is what we all have to learn about being film makers. We have to help and reach back and help somebody. Independently everybody came on board out of love in making this book a movie. And tonight is a celebration because we deserve movies and moments like tonight.”

As many may recall, Columbus Short’s character “Quadir Richards” was killed in the first installment but that didn’t stop the show as the ladies flip the script this time for the action paced fem fatale gangster thriller. Producing a film is no easy task and being Black and accomplishing this feat deserves some acknowledgement. Short gave Halley his props, adding,

“Let me give you some juice Manny. It’s so hard to make movies and people don’t understand that. And as a Black man, you said I’m going to do this. You bumped your head a few times and ran right into a brick wall but guess what. You made it all right.

That’s humility. You put your ego aside and you made it right and put out a project that’s being successful and I’m proud of you brother and that’s why I’m here and came back to support.”

True To The Game 2 also features Lil Mama, Rotimi, Waka Flocka, Bre-Z, Tamar Braxton, and Darius McCrary and takes place in Philadelphia, New York and California. Fox also added,

“We gave a lot of young actors the opportunity to be on the big screen with established and veteran actors like Columbus, Starletta and I and I love to watch their careers evolve and you see the beautiful rainbow of us represented in this movie.”

The soundtrack is filled with bangers too and is executive produced by Wheezy Beatz and Manny Halley. Available for streaming now, the ferocious score includes tracks from Future, Jeremiah, Derez De’Shon, Fabolous and London on the Track just to name a few.

London on the Track also makes his acting debut in the film which also houses the Dej Loaf, Nicole Bus and Dave East new ghetto love anthem “Star.”

True To The Game 3 has already been filmed too and will be in theatres in February. Halley and Woods also partnered on her novel series Dutch which will also have its theatrical release on Black Friday during Thanksgiving weekend and Halley has a new television series in the works so stay tuned for more.

Check the trailer below and hit the theaters tonight and this weekend if you can. True To The Game 2 will also be available OnDemand the week before Christmas.

Lil Bam Taps Rick Ross & Jucee Froot For “Julio” Remix

Lil Bam just released his highly anticipated visual for the remix of “Julio” featuring Jucee Froot & Rick Ross – which served as his breakout single that caught the eyes and ears of the South.

Directed by Roger Alexander of AlphaMale Visuals, the video features cameos from members of the Women’s National Football Conference (WNFC’s) Atlanta Phoenix team. A twist from the norm, Lil Bam and his team made it a point to spotlight the women of Atlanta’s home team showing they play just as hard as the guys if not harder.

The athletes suited up and balled out under their interim leader on the field “Coach Bam“ while literally “Catching plays in the A” as the lyrics say. Memphis Rapper Jucee Froot then hits us with a lyrical broadcast as she narrates the chaos on the field. A baffling win, the trophy ceremony is complete with a boisterous performance from none other than the biggest boss himself, Rick Ross. 

When discussing the video’s creative elements Bam recalls, “What I like most about it is that it looks like a short film. A lot of different pieces, but it all comes together to make a real movie. It was a very long day but well worth it.” At the height The visual also features cameos from Atlanta’s Taylor Girlz, and Richie Re. 

“Working alongside a living legend like Rozay and one of the hardest female rappers like Jucee was crazy. This was definitely one of my most exciting videos” – Says Bam. 

As previously mentioned, 2019 served as a breakout year for the MBK4L recording artist with a number of projects under his belt collaborating with both YBN Almighty Jay and Lil Baby. This year he has elevated his work ethic by consistently releasing new music and videos while his imprint expands beyond the south. His most recent release “Hot Boy” was spotlighted on Apple Music New South Playlist while reaching close to 3.5 millions streams, drawing the attention of Goodie Mob in which he sampled. 

Impending stardom is inevitable for the down south rapper as he prepares for his label debut, The Last Don EP, set to release this November 26th.

Republican Candidate Calls For The Legalization of Marijuana

There have been many democrats who have called for the legalization of marijuana over the years but have yet to do anything about it. Congressional candidate Angela Stanton-King who is running for the congressional seat once held by the late John Lewis is now calling for the legalization of cannabis and her reasons are what many hope will free those who have been marginalized and penalized through the criminal justice system. Ms. Stanton-King appeared this week in front of Atlanta City Hall to discuss her plan if she wins a seat in office. She also brought along some individuals who have suffered greatly because of how the current laws effect people of color.
