Kashious Releases New Single "Without Your Love"

Hailing from D.C, Kashious is a singer/songwriter, producer & self-proclaimed one man band. The talented multi-instrumentalist writes, produces & sings songs spanning & effortlessly blending the genres of R&B, Jazz, Hip Hop, blues & Soul.

Kashious is currently in the studio perfecting his rendition of the Teddy Pendergrass classic, “Close the Door”. A fitting endeavor for Kashious whose, powerfully stirring yet piercingly accurate, voice has earned some well-deserved comparisons to legendary greats, Luther Vandross & Marvin Gaye. Much like his previous works “Time” & “Lov’z Eternal”, this beautifully arranged remake is sure to be a fan favorite!  

Kashious, a naturally gifted vocalist, was born into a musically inclined family. His mother & siblings all shared their love of music, both, in the home & at church. Early on, Kashious’ style was influenced by BB King, Ernie Isley, Marvin Gaye & Aaron Neville. A self-taught musician, he learned to play guitar by listening to their music over & over until he could play the chords perfectly. Applying that same self-discipline, he learned to play the drums, bass & keyboard thereafter.

After spending over 15 years in Colorado, in 2005 Kashious was encouraged by his family to relocate to San Diego, Ca to pursue his dream. It wasn’t long before Kashious partnered with Rusty Gordon, a producer who believed in his immense talent & knew that the world needed to hear his music. Gordon, acting as a catalyst, challenged Kashious artistically. The musical bond fostered in 2006 marked the beginning of a successful artist/producer relationship that continues today. Kashious’ growth as an artist is endearing & undeniable to listeners around the world.

Aktion Jackson "Delete" Produced by DJ Battle Cat Hits Top 25 First Day of Release: iTunes Chart

South Central Native, national recording artist, Aktion Jackson’s New Single “Delete” produced by the legendary DJ Battle Cat soars to Top 25 on the iTunes Hip-Hop/Rap chart, landing at No. 21 on it’s first day of release.

Aktion, popularly known for his creative and animated style of rapping, is not only a lyrically talented artist but also a writer, producer and director in film, which is why the assembly of his delivery in the song itself feels more like a full production rather than just the typical two verses and a hook. Paired with DJ Battle Cat’s dynamic masterpiece, it’s no wonder the two decided to collaborate. The song truly brings that genuine west coast flavor back into perspective.

Now that the fans are downloading and streaming it everywhere, Aktion can take pride in knowing it was definitely the right decision to drop it first quarter of the year.

He leaves us with this quote:

I want to be Effective, not Famous, F Tha Fame…I just want to be Heard.

Nick Caster’s New Era Is Here: Partnership with Hilton Hotels and Chains in the Works

Nick Caster is embarking on new ventures despite his music doing extremely well in all markets globally.

Initially, Nick was determined and passionate about working towards the spotlight as would any musician trying to pursue a career in the music and entertainment industry. Unlike most independent artists pushing their music without the help of a big machine, his success has been above and beyond the “norm”. As a result of his hard work, talent and efforts of networking, he soon found himself creating the necessary relationships needed to progress into a world of promise.

He managed to release music that soared the iTunes as well as Billboard charts with multiple projects ranking in several genres: Dance, Pop and Christian/Gospel.

His most recent hit ‘Tonight” managed to land itself in over 500 retailers including but not limited to Walmart, Best Buy, Sprint, Verizon, Subway, Little Ceasers Pizza, Dicks Sporting Goods, Commercial Malls, Tanger Outlet Malls, Nike, Hyatt, Hilton Hotels, Leslies Pools, Cricket, John Deer, Spectrio, Staples, Suncoast Credit Union, Pep Boys, Ace Hardware, etc., just to name a few.

The video ended up placing in 78 outlets both regionally and internationally including major media platforms such as MTV, Music Choice & OKTV all the way in Germany. It was also added to the PC/RX Music pool, currently rotating in resorts and retail outlets such as MGM Grand, Caesars Palace & The Bellagio in Las Vegas, Nevada.   

Check out what everyone’s raving about below!

Now, while most would be gloating about all of the success coming their way, Nick on the other hand, has taken an interest in expanding his relationships and opportunities yet again, but this time for artists similar to himself who struggle with ways to make their music profitable. He recently inked a deal with Hilton Hotels and chains to secure Covid compliant, private property festivals to help artists gain more exposure through large audiences. In addition to the exposure, they can also earn by selling merchandise, CD’s etc. He recently incorporated, Elite Entertainment, LLC with a private partner, and the company will soon act as a booking agency working with select artists who fit a specific profile and criteria for the Florida Beach, Clearwater, Sarasota and Miami markets. So far, Nick sees this as a great investment as he recently found interest from city officials who, like him, see potential in the idea of retreats and festivals bringing revenue to known tourist attractions that have taken tremendous falls following the pandemic. Furthermore, future event planning has already begun with the first event aimed to launch July 4th of 2021 and Spring break of 2022.

While Nick’s choices to put the pen and guitar down may have his fans questioning why, Nick seems to have his head set and determined on starting his new journey as an executive providing opportunities rather than the musician searching for them. With the success he has seen with pretty much anything he has placed his efforts into, everything actually looks pretty promising. If the new ventures end up becoming as successful as his career as a musician, it looks like Florida will be on its way to looking forward to an amazing world of fun, music, entertainment & opportunity and who better to bring it, but the man behind this phenomenal trail of success… Nick Caster.

He leaves us with these words…

““You can do anything you put your mind, heart and soul into, all you have to simply do is “BELIEVE”.”

Chekx Releases New Visual "Beautiful (Viral Video)" : Watch

We recently caught up with the amazingly talented, national recording artist, Chekx to catch a glimpse of his musical journey. The Kingston native has shown his fans that not only is he a man of purpose, talent and passion behind his craft, but he is also a determined entrepreneur pursuing expansion of his brand and talent into the likes of Rasta Steve where he was featured on his album, “Like A Yardie” on the track titled  “Cellular”. Sooner after, he collaborated with the 7 times Grammy considered, Budukusu on a hardcore dancehall track titled “Give Thanks”. Below were some of the questions we asked him.

1) How did your name come about?

• My oldest brother is called Trex, so I mimicked the name to Chex but had to choose Chekx because of the Chexmix Cereal

2) When did you start your love for your craft? 

• I been singing in both the church and school choir since I was a child. My sister was always singing around me while my brothers always listened to various types of music of different genres, so music has always been around me.

3) What made you decide you wanted to pursue a career in music? 

• My friend, Jah Caution, who passed away. He was talented and I wanted to get him out there so I started producing a few beats and outsourcing other producers so I could gain him recognition. As we vibed together, I started constructing my own lyrics and flows to inspire him as he inspired me.

4) How do you usually come up with the concepts of your projects? Tell us the meaning and vision behind the four songs you've created?

• It's all about life experiences. The 'past' what I been through as a person, the decisions I made then that curved me into the man I am now and where I see myself in the future. Also, seeing through other people's perspective and not just mine.

5) What are your plans for the future?

• Achieving my objectives, goals, visons and dreams. Earning enough to take care of my family and loved ones. Giving back to the poor and needy.

His most recent video "Beautiful (Viral Video)" has already begun to make great progress hitting over 10,000 views in less than two weeks. Click play to see the visual behind the man giving hope to "feel good" music.

The Rise Of Carson Attaway

Billy Joel once said that he thinks “music in itself is healing… it’s an explosive expression of humanity” and Attaway creates art that lives up to this expression in every sense.

To the Little Rock, Arkansas native, music is a lot more than a hobby. Losing his mother at the hands of his father at the age of 13, Attaway found himself battling through adversity that most couldn’t even imagine. The extreme trauma turned the young kid’s reality into a nightmare. He found that music provided an escape from the darkness that was his reality, letting his deep emotions flow over beats.

At 18, Attaway has found true passion, coupled with raw talent, that has stimulated the evolution of his music career thus far. His unique sound and superior lyricism allows him to connect and resonate with his fans through rap music with finesse. His presence in the industry was solidified when he released his debut project ‘The Come Up’ that has accounted for 600,000+ streams to date on Spotify alone, not to mention the 17,000 followers on Instagram and almost 50,000 followers on TikTok that came with it. As he continues to gain exposure and grow his fanbase, he intends to inspire his audience to do what they love without regret and chase after their dreams.

The release of Attaway’s most recent single ‘Butterflies’ reinforced his position as an artist and proved that he is in the game to stay. He uses his superb lyricism and melodic flow to create a relatable song that expresses the feeling of nervousness that occurs when you are in the presence of the significant other that catches your attention. Everybody knows them.

Attaway has the talent to leave a significant impact on the rap game and intends to use his platform to impact as many lives possible in a positive way. He’s lived through a nightmare that has allowed him to live his dreams. As he continues to develop he is not someone you will want to miss, check out his work and support him before the entire world does!

How did you come by your stage name?

I was born Nelson Gabriel Alvarez in Puerto Rico. My artist stage name is Ayyo Yung Gotti. The name Gotti comes from “God Only Talk Through Intelligence” and I am keeping my head high for God’s glory.

When did you discover your love for your craft and what made you realize you wanted to pursue a career in it?

When I was 13 y.o, I would get into rap battles all the time, and I realized I was good at it. Little did I know it at the time, but this would be the key to me striving to move forward with my rap career.

To what or whom do you accredit your sense of style?

The Rapper Big Pun...and may his soul Rest In Peace.

On your current project, how did you come up with the concept?

It was a fledgling idea when I heard the track from JamMar Moguls’s “Rising Star Producer” Aaron Peil. 

Aaron needed someone to do the rap for the track he produced, and he came to me with the idea “Turkey Butt.” 

This song is a shout-out to all the intelligent, strong, independent ladies out there who are proud of their beautiful “junk in the trunk”.

What are some of your greatest challenges, and what is your greatest attribute when it comes to your work ethic?

I’ve had a rough life. I have been out on the streets and living on my own since age 14. I’m trying to get my life straightened out now. My greatest attributes has been my grind. I grind all the time. I’m busy performing and working on shows (even through this coronavirus). I’m constantly working on my craft and putting out new music.

Are you the best at what you do in your opinion?

I will let my fans and others judge for themselves my artistry and work.

What are your plans for the near future?

Grammy, Grammy, Grammy. 

Is there anyone you’d like to thank? Any shout outs?

God, Jesus, Holy Spirit and my manager, James Raymond....without them none of this would be happening. I’d also like to thank the team at JamMar Moguls, especially Executive Marketing Director, Jamaica Johnson, and JamMar Moguls CEO/Creative Director, Marlana T. Alden. These are the people that are making it happen for me.

Come December 10, 2020, at 1 pm; Turkey Butt will be premiering on YouTube. Ayyo Yung Gotti hopes to use rap and clever lyrics to inspire young people to greatness. He also wants to be seen as a driving force in the music industry, inventing trends, and shaping history.

RedrumSociety Fights His Way Back to Number One

            For RedrumSociety, one of the hottest alternative bands in 2020, the road to success hasn’t exactly been a smooth ride. Founded by a group of high school friends in 2008, the band was rising fast but collapsed under the leadership of front man, Zach Cohen, with troubles facing him from seemingly every angle, the singer/songwriter/guitarist went into hiding from 2015 to 2019, bringing the band with him into the hiatus. In the span, RedrumSociety only quietly released one song, “Trust Fund Girls.”

            In 2016, Zach checked into a rehab facility, slowly and quietly turning his life around and clearing the wreckage of his past. Unbeknownst to him at the time, these steps led Zach to RedrumSociety’s turnaround as he now has successfully mounted a full-fledged comeback. Since then, he has written and released such songs as “How I Cope,” “Ego,” “Crumble,” and most recently, the “Street Fights” EP—All of which enjoyed success on the charts in their respective genres.

            The new album is somewhat of a break off from the traditional RedrumSociety theme that Zach portrays which is his role of the victim in his various relationships with women. Instead, the album sheds light on the chaos of the social and political turmoil 2020 has seen, through Cohen’s eyes. Zach says the single track; “Street Fights” was inspired by the 1968 song “Street Fighting Man” by the Rolling Stones. The last two focus on his failed relationship as a result of the quarantine.

            The album and the single, “Street Fights” both reached the number one position on the iTunes Blues charts. Since the band was founded in 2008, a member has died, some have been arrested, some gun shot. They were at a time disbanded, hiding, and reeling. For all Zach and RedrumSociety has been through, they have shown the ability to fight for survival by continuing to write songs and perform, keeping their fanbase growing more and more as they push through obstacles, both internally and externally.
