R&B IS UNDER NEW LEADERSHIP

The Mark Williams is a singer songwriter who specializes in bridging the gap between today’s hip hop/trap & classic old school R&B, creating a sound that has it’s own identity without compromising either genre. “This comes from the solid group of producers I worked with, Ku Dolla, DJ Funky, and myself have figured how to stay true to who I am and also being true to todays musical atmosphere. These talented group of guys put a beautiful glaze of todays musical \ production techniques on my sophisticated musical vocal arrangements making it feel fresh and clean to todays listeners”.

The Mark Williams is a music business renaissance man whose has been involved in many of the major music & entertainment movements in the past 30 years. As a producer, manager, television producer, actor and promoter, The Mark Williams has been able to work with many of the greats in the music business from Smokey Robinson, Rick James, MusiqSoulchild, MC Hammer, Babyface, Salt &Pepa, Katt Williams, The Dells, Mike Epps, Teddy Riley, Keith Sweat and New Edition. I think you get the drift he’s been involved with this industries big dogs for a minute. Now Mark is doing what he does best and that’s write beautiful songs and sing. Mark is an immaculate singer such voices are rare to find and it seems as though his voice was specifically made for the genre of music he sings, Mark is a one-man army, what I mean by this is that he is a singer, actor, and producer, so when you listen to him sing, it's like listening to now, then and forever that’s how sweet his vocals fit into todays beats. “I come from the era of great singer songwriters and I’ve brought some of the greatest songs ever recorded to the public so I know what a hit of any generation sounds and feels like”.

The Mark Williams possesses one of the great locutions in modern R&Bglinting and willowy, his voice guilelessly skims over beats, and therefore, showcasing the unique art in the beat, in fact, he possesses an unbeatable charm. On his 10 song collectioncalled ALL THE HITS you can feel an elasticity in his chosen voice which accompanies each track has only one purpose, goal, and interest and that the storyline touches you in your feet or soul. Mark is not a singer that leaves you wondering what he is up to in his music. He slips from one romantic conquest to the next with an unvarying approach to the interest of his audience. Is he theMarvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Barry White, Smokey or Ron Isley of today?

When you listen to this dude you know he’s mature, sexy and smooth.The Mark Williamseases from delicate sensuous love songs to bombastic dance songs to political from house to reggae. His smooth & silky 1st and 2ndtenor and forceful baritone and bass keeps the listener from pigeon holing this talented artist because he doesn’t sound the same on each song.

When you watch The Mark WMS perform, you can tell he is comfortable on stage, the energy and vibe that follows his performance will tell you that he understands his audience and that he is an expert in showbiz and production. Mark has a great collection of songs like: FUNK WITH ME, IN THE MOOD, WHATCHA GONNA DO, BETWEEN YOUR LEGS, RISE UP, DANCE FOR ME, THUG WIFE, WATCH ME DANCE, and PARTY WITH YOUR BODY.

The Mark WMS has a way of sliding gently into low-to-mid-tempo, bottom-heavy beats, simple melodies laid out with a few sturdy chords, Mark pliantly sings to any beat and allows the beat to pass through as he makes his way through the beat also, Mark slides up and down the scale as he seduces, sexes and then reasserts his commitment to unapologetic single-dom. He often vocally references R&B from the 1970s and early 2000s that creates a style that easily controls the beats of todays grooves and production techniques and as you listen you clearly recognize that he is a master of his craft.

In conclusion, The Mark’s sound cuts across all generations, everyone gets to start nodding in delight and admiration every time Mark approaches the microphone and opens his heart, the lyrical content of his songs are out of this world.I say to you that once you press play, the content of his songs opens up your imagination. This mode starts to feel addictive. The choruses of his songs echo a reality of both the streets and the heart. Romantic, Gangster, Party man, The Mark Williams is not one that can placed in one format which is a delight to the listener. Whether you’re a hip hop fan or are into straight up R&B you immediately recognize that The Mark Williams is a rare gem in the industry and he no doubt will provide great leadership in the music of the future.

For the past eight years, he has also been composing his own music. Tristan recently released a single titled Child with Bristol Studios in Boston, Massachusetts.

Tristan learned about the world of acting at a very young age. He was very shy as a child so his mother signed him up for a theater summer camp. Because of his introverted nature, he declined any speaking roles. His first stage role was that of the Sun. His job was to raise or bring down a picture of the Sun as the narrator instructed. Tristan continued participating in theater from that point forward. At the age of ten, during a visit to New York City, Tristan saw the Broadway musical production of The Phantom of the Opera for the first time. At that moment, Tristan also became devoted to music. Soon after his trip to New York, after much begging and pleading, his parents bought him a piano.

Infamous Thierry Drops 'Projects' Lyric Video On YouTube

Cameron Thierry is better known to his fans as Infamous Thierry. The name “Infamous” was given to him by an OG when he was young, and it stuck when he later found it was a synonym for “notorious.” Thierry explains that “Infamous is a representation of the hoods across the world, about having enough ambition to make it out.” With “I Remember” at 2.5 million views on YouTube, he has scheduled his new single “Projects” to drop early summer. “It’s a song for everyone in the world, whoever came from where they were to prosperity,” he says, “it explains a lot of what I had to do and what I lost to make it out.”

Infamous Thierry represents his hometown of Baton Rouge, Louisiana where Boosie Badazz, Webbie, and Kevin Gates originated. He states, “I grew up listening to Webbie’s “Savage Life,” Lil Boosie’s “Badazz,” Kevin Gates’ “All Or Nothin’,” and Lil Wayne’s “Tha Carter.” Listening to these artists inspired Thierry to start making music around the age of seven, leading to his career in the entertainment and music industry, which he feels to be his greatest achievement so far.

The sound he brings to his music has been influenced heavily by Boosie, Webbie, Kevin Gates, Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Meek Mill, Drake, Future, Nipsey Hussle, and Wiz Khalifa. As of right now, his playlist consists of Meek Mill, Young Dolph, Drake, Kevin Gates, and Dave East. “If I could collaborate with any one artist living or dead it would have to be Jay Z. I chose Jay because I know it wouldn’t jus’ be a song he’d give me so much knowledge-making that one track. Plus the song would be a classic,” Thierry says.

ChristineStorm.png

National recording artist Christine Storm has performed throughout the world, has been a prolific songwriter, and continues to tap into her wide range of life experiences for her music. Christine’s influences range from Alice Cooper to Blood, Sweat, and Tears, all the way across the spectrum to Kate Bush and Prince. Her sound has been described as an eclectic blend of Soul and Techno dance with melodies that are Pop driven. Many of her songs tell a story and confront real life feelings and attitudes, but with a humorous touch in many cases. “I would describe myself as sarcastic and eclectic! I love the escapism of music and how it can change the mood of a person, but at the same time, be so damn fun,” states Christine.

She has a devout appreciation for the genre and most importantly, the people and cultural traditions that encumber the world of Reggae music as a whole. She’s not your average depiction of a Reggae artist however uses her sincerity and love for God and of course Bob Marley, one of Reggae’s most prominently recognized Ambassadors who won the hearts of Reggae fans through his music and words, as a stepping stone to creating the song “Present” which features on The Tropical House Cruises to Jamaica (Deluxe Edition). As soon as she heard some of the names listed on the album, she jumped at the opportunity and hopes the message of the song itself touches the hearts of the listeners as much as it does her’s.

Kevin Gates hasn't been behind bars since 2018, but that hasn't stopped him from returning to a prison to visit another rap star inmate.

July 8th, a photo of Gates and C-Murder was uploaded to the incarcerated rapper's Instagram account. In the photos, C-Murder meets with Gates, who covers his face with a stack of cash.

"REAL RECOGNIZE REAL. @iamkevingates came through and hollered at Cee. Nothing but respect for the homie Gates. A lot so call real left the homie hanging. You have to be real when you take time out your celebrity life to visit a homie in the pen. Salute @iamkevingates for the realest shit. #freecee #freeleelucus #freebigmarlo @freecornbread #freemac #tru4life #justice #tru #trudat #trumovement #freecmurder," C-Murder wrote in his caption.

C-Murder, who was born Corey Miller, is still behind bars after he was convicted of second-degree murder in 2009 for a 2002 nightclub killing. His request for a retrial was denied by a judge earlier this year. Judge Steven Enright of 24th Judicial District Court ruled on Jan. 23 that C-Murder's defense did not make a compelling case for any kind of post-conviction relief. Enright said that the recantation of both witnesses' testimonies are "highly suspicious."

Both his brother Master P and his nephew Romeo Miller have been extremely vocal about C-Murder's release even before the witnesses recanted their testimony. Two of Miller’s friends and collaborators, Cuttboy G-Dinero and 2Meka Diaz, submitted his case to Reasonable Doubt, a true-crime show with the TV network Investigation Discovery in August 2017. When the investigators on the show searched for Jordan and another witness, Jordan finally stepped forward to change his story.

“I think he was all of a sudden ready to talk, and I think he saw that show as an opportunity to put the truth out there,” Barker said.

Cuttboy G Dinero says he has a new single with C-Murder coming soon, “Dey Put Da Blame On Me,” which was recorded while Miller was on house arrest before his 2009 conviction. The snippet can be heard here. The song will be featured as a main single on the “Hip Hop Cruises To Jamaica” compilation album.
