Doc Marky T's New Single "Feelings" Ft. Myah Marie & MVP Mhad Hits No. 3 on iTunes Chart

This week, SS Global Entertainment releases a hit single produced by Doc Marky T, titled “Feelings” with 8 versions in total that soared up the iTunes Dance chart landing at number 3.

Doc Marky T is a former teacher, coach, and Rideshare driver that established numerous unofficial Rideshare world records in 2019 – coincidentally the year COVID relief programs would be calculated upon. After receiving nearly half a million dollars in COVID relief between 2020 and 2021, he purchased music studio equipment to reignite a dream of writing a Billboard hit record. After writing a song “Miss America” about a former Miss America but failing to get a response from her, he decided to take his first-ever music production course to professionalize his songwriting. During the course, he wrote the instrumental to “Feelings” while looking at pictures of Miss America for inspiration in the hopes of impressing her. The music was originally composed to a different vocalist and lyrics as part of the course but he later recruited Myah Marie from an online music source to write and sing new vocals to the instrumental as a break-up song.

The song wonders why we need feelings to being with that enable us to feel pain from imperfection in a relationship. - Doc Marky T

Ariel Chobaz, who engineered Drake, Rhianna, Justin Bieber, and Nicky Minaj among many other stars, said he was one of the greatest up-and-coming artists he’s worked with after engineering his first three initial songs including “Feelings.” Myah Marie is a former backup singer to Britney Spears and has #1 Billboards hits to her writing credits. MVP Mhad is a new and upcoming rapper from Englewood, Chicago whom he used to coach in high school track and field. He recruited MVP Mhad to write a rap to the bridge after it was apparent to him that his voice and lyrics would not be the best fit for the song.

“Feelings” is a song that everyone should be able to relate to from experiencing pain in relationships, romantic or not. And now it’s clear to the world of music and entertainment that it has reached the ears and hearts of their fans.

STREAM THE HIT SINGLE BELOW for your listening pleasure. There are also other versions for fans in the Pop, R&B, Dance, and Disco genres available.

Gritty In Pink Founder Shira Yevin Appears on Forbes Books Podcast To Announce INPINK Beta Marketplace

New Network is for Music Industry Pros to Hire Diverse Women

Gritty In Pink Founder Shira Yevin is interviewed by host Joe Pardavila on the latest ForbesBooksRadio podcast, discussing the company’s new INPINK marketplace, as well as other exhilarating announcements. The ForbesBooks podcast offers stories, passion, and knowledge from top business thought leaders. Gritty In Pink, a company on a mission to achieve gender equality in the music business and beyond, is currently rolling out their beta platform of a new marketplace network called INPINK, connecting women who work within all aspects of the music business, to industry professionals who want to hire diverse women.

Gritty In Pink believes that achieving gender equality in the music business is not only the right thing to do, but it’s better for business. Currently, women are still missing from the music industry in staggering numbers: merely 21.6% of artists, 12.6% of songwriters and 2.6% of producers are women, and the ratio of men to women in popular music is 4:1. However, studies have proven that gender diverse teams perform better, and according to the Boston Consulting Group, startups founded or co-founded by women garner less investment but generate more revenue in the long run. The urgency for diversity, equity and inclusion in the music industry is greater now more than ever.

Despite the fact that women are still underrepresented, there is still a huge opportunity and talent pool. The market supply for women who work in all areas touching the industry including Public Relations, Photography, Writers, Creatives etc. is $1.3 M in the US alone, and the music industry’s total contribution to the US GDP is $170 B- $128 B of which comes from indirect services, such as freelancers. Company Advisor and Vans Warped Tour Founder Kevin Lyman noted the need for such a marketplace, saying “There’s a lot of women entering the business in the technical fields...finding jobs and placement for anyone is a help, it’s a transient business.” .

Currently, Gritty In Pink is accepting submissions from female freelancers to be part of the beta site at INPINK.com, which has already started onboarding listings of female music professionals, ranging from songwriting and audio production to styling and makeup. The listings are mostly for remote services, plus local services which are first launching in the LA area. The platform will continue to expand, with the company focusing on growing both supply and demand. “Our next step is onboarding strategic partners. These days everyone wants inclusion and diversity in their hiring practices, so it’s a very timely platform,” said Shira Yevin. “The big vision is to diversify to every industry.”

Shira was also excited to share more exciting news on the ForbesBooks podcast. Most recently, Gritty In Pink was accepted into the Long Beach Accelerator, a prestigious program that mentors and invests in growing startups, working with their funding partner Sunstone Management “Gritty In Pink provides a powerful solution to fill such a big demand in a largely overlooked market. Sunstone is thrilled to become one of its early-stage investors.” said John Shen, Principal of Sunstone Management.

Gritty In Pink was founded by Shira Yevin, who is also known as an Entrepreneur, Artist, and Activist. Shira studied Communications and Theatre Arts at the University of Pennsylvania. She’s been a featured speaker at SXSW and featured in Billboard, Alternative Press, NPR and The New York Times. After forming her all-female band Shiragirl, Shira became known for advocating for women in male-dominated spaces; Shira and her band crashed the Vans Warped Tour and created the Shiragirl Stage for female artists, which hosted 300+ artists including the rock icon Joan Jett.

Shira was also recently featured on My Warped Life and Babes Behind the Beat podcasts, both of which can be heard on Spotify and all major streaming platforms, in addition to the interview on ForbesBooksRadio.

For more information on INPINK and Gritty In Pink, please visit: www.grittyinpink.co.

Gritty in Pink is a new platform empowering women in music through performance, partnerships, and networking opportunities. Founder Shira Yevin has a legendary history of breaking down barriers and carving out a space for women, as the creator of the Vans Warped Tour Shiragirl Stage, which featured 300+ female musicians, including Joan Jett and Paramore. Gritty in Pink continues the legacy of providing community and a stage for female voices in a male-dominated industry, having showcased 175+ artists with a collective following of 5 million on Instagram and 13 million on Tiktok.

Taylor Swift Sings At Rock Hall Ceremony To Help Induct Carole King To Hall Of Fame

Taylor Swift had the first word at the 2021 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony Saturday night (Oct. 30) in Cleveland.

After opening remarks by Rock Hall CEO Greg Harris and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation President John Sykes, Swift took the stage at Rockey Mortgage Fieldhouse in a glittering, form-fitting outfit to sing a vibey, electronic-flavored rendition of Rock Hall inductee Carole King's “Will You Love Me Tomorrow,” the 1960 Shirelles No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hit King wrote with her first husband, Gerry Goffin, and also recorded for her own Billboard 200 chart-topping Tapestry album in 1971. King and Goffin were inducted into the Rock Hall as songwriters in 1990; on Saturday, King was inducted a second time, as a performer. After Swift’s performance, King mimed wiping tears from her eyes and bowed in thanks.

In her induction speech, Swift spoke about being raised by parents “who taught me the basic truths of life as they saw it,” among them that “Carole King is the greatest songwriter of all time.” That included a father who once told a woman he was dating that King’s breakup ode “It’s Too Late” was a song that she reminded him of. Swift added that King’s lyrics “speak to the true and honest … It is only right for them to be passed down like precious heirlooms from parents to children.”

She also saluted King for “navigating the politics of an era that didn’t make space for a female genius. Slowly but surely Carole King worked to create one, and it will be hers forever.”

After thanking Swift “for carrying the torch forward” and calling her “like my professional granddaughter,” King paid tribute to Goffin and other collaborators and supporters, including Tapestry album producer Lou Adler and James Taylor, as well as musicians, managers and others.

“I keep hearing it, so I’m gonna have to try to own it, that today’s female singers and songwriters stand on my shoulder,” said King. “Let it not be forgotten they also stand on the shoulders of the first woman to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. May she rest in power – Miss Aretha Franklin,” she said, to a huge ovation from the arena crowd. King then introduced Jennifer Hudson, start of the Franklin biopic Respect, who delivered a powerhouse version of the King-written Franklin hit “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman" (which King also later recorded for her own Tapestry).

Johnny Gillespie's New Album Scorches to No. 11 on the iTunes Pop Charts

We were honored to speak with Johnny Gillespie today who recently hit the USA iTunes Pop Albums Chart at number 11 with the hit album “How You Like Me Now?.” He gave us some details about his success in the music industry.

“Persistence is the name of the game! Surround yourself with a great team. The rest falls into place. I’m grateful for Ronnie king for being the executive producer on the album and really pushing me to make this project be the best that it can be. This man really took me under his wing and showed me the ropes. I’m grateful for the great mixes done by Radium Media for giving the sound an edge. My wife for being my backbone, sullen clothing for keeping me inspired to go big. I couldn’t have done it without surrounding myself with a great team! This milestone happened because of all of our efforts and is not to be taken lightly. Great things happen when you build together!”

For the dynamic Pop star, success has not come easily. He shared with us some challenges he had to overcome along the way. “I’ve been through the ringer but no matter when I fell I kept getting back up. Like I said persistence always wins. If you fail try again and again and again. When I fell I had a team to carry me and that’s why I’m so eternally grateful for them. Who would have thought a kid from Orange County California with all the odds against him could come this far? How you like me now world? We ain’t done yet!”

The collaborative work that Johnny produces specializes in reaching his audience’s depth of perspective and as a result he has surpassed considerable competition on the iTunes Pop charts. Johnny explains “People want to work with me because I’ll always give my best no matter what. Wanna know what it’s like to feel nothing and be at your all time low and come back? I come with so many perspectives from life from going through adversity that I bring experience to the table. Most time la I feel like I know how to do what’s best for the track and if I don’t I’m not afraid to ask for help. I learned that along the way. I love to collaborate with likeminded individuals who see a bigger picture for themselves and like to win together.”

Johnny is grateful and takes his success in stride stating “If you can dream it and believe it, you can achieve it. I remember going to Ronnie kings house and seeing his plaques on his walls that ran for miles and miles of just great records he was part of and 10 years later I get the opportunity to put some more on his wall. That was always a dream of mine. How you like us now? Success means to continue to progress when shit hits the fan! Don’t give up! Don’t stop grinding there’s no time to lose we’re all on borrowed time. 

So what's next for the pop charting artist? 

“Just wait and see! More to be revealed but if you like what I’m about Follow me on ig @johnnygmusic and get the latest scoop! And if you wanna work hit me up and join the team we’re here and ready to get some more projects going!”

Adele’s ‘Easy On Me’ Triumps Over The Billboard Global Charts

'Easy on Me' Vaults 195-1 on Global 200

Adele's "Easy on Me" is the biggest song in the world, as it hits No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (both dated Oct. 30) following its Oct. 14 arrival.

Plus, and adding to British acts' highlights, Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" reaches the Global Excl. U.S. top five, climbing from No. 6 to No. 5.

Billboard's two global charts, which began in September 2020 and recently marked their first year, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by MRC Data. The Billboard Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the U.S.

Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts' calculations.

"Easy" by London-born Adele flies from No. 195, where it debuted, to No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200. The song drew 178.2 million streams and sold 136,300 downloads worldwide in the Oct. 15-21 tracking week.

The ballad boasts the second-biggest streaming week since the Global 200 began, after BTS' "Butter" launched with 289.2 million streams on the June 5 chart. "Easy" scores the third-biggest sales frame, following "Butter" (248,600, June 5) and BTS' "Permission to Dance" (138,600, July 24).

Adele is the third British act to top the Global 200, after Ed Sheeran, whose "Bad Habits" led the July 31 list, and Coldplay, whose "My Universe," with BTS, rocketed in at No. 1 on the Oct. 9 chart.

Boosie Badazz Tweets Anti-Gay Rant Towards Lil Nas X

Boosie Badazz performs Aug. 15, 2020, in College Park, Ga.Paras Griffin / Getty Images fileHip-hop artist Boosie Badazz is coming under fire after tweeting an anti-gay rant targeting the rapper Lil Nas X. The message, which was shared Saturday, also urged the Grammy-winning artist to take his life.

“STOP TROLLING ME F----- LOL!!," the tweet said, in part. "IF YOU #commitsuicide YOU WOULD DO THIS WORLD A HUGE FAVOR NOBODY WANTS U HERE."

Twitter took down the rapper’s post for violating the company’s policy on hate speech.

Badazz's offensive remarks came shortly after Lil Nas X jokingly told fans on Instagram Live over the weekend that he would be collaborating on a new song with the 38-year-old rapper, who earlier this year threatened to "drag" and "beat" the 22-year-old singer, whose debut album "Montero" dropped last month.

Lil Nas X — who was honored as the Trevor Project‘s Suicide Prevention Advocate of the Year in September — responded on Twitter in jest, saying, “i am truly saddened. i have never been so mortified in my life. i can’t believe disney channel has yet to play halloween town this entire october.”

The remarks against Lil Nas X come after the "Old Town Road" singer revealed in February that he suffered from suicidal thoughts in 2019.

“I got news that my mom wasn’t doing so well in rehab with her addiction,” he wrote in a series of TikTok captions. “Also me and my boyfriend broke up. During this time old town road was still killing it while I was… spiraling. I found myself in a hotel room contemplating ending it all. But I didn’t.”

In the series of videos, Lil Nas X also said he was previously kicked out of his sister's home and experienced domestic abuse while living with one of his brothers.

The rapper has further addressed his grapples with suicidal thoughts in a music video for his single "Sun Goes Down," which depicts him uplifting a younger version of himself when he is struggling to come to terms with his sexuality.

On Saturday, fans were quick to come to Lil Nas X's defense.

"Boosie isn’t mad that Lil Nas X is queer," one user wrote on Twitter. "Boosie is mad that a queer Black rapper is doing better than him in an industry that has built its foundation in homophobia."

Tips For Building a Successful Music Program

Recruitment Tip

It’s never too late to get students involved in music so engage your more advanced students and make them as visible as possible in your school building so that others can see how much they enjoy performing. Can they perform during lunchtime on Fridays; play a fun version of “Happy Birthday” for the teachers in your building on their special day by bursting into one of their classes with a branded balloon or ink pen; or serenade the office staff (including counselors) during Thanksgiving or Valentine’s Day to thank them for their hard work? And don’t forget the elementary or middle school music teachers! Is there a way to arrange to have a few of your experienced students show up at their former music teachers' classrooms to serenade them as well during their largest classes? All of this takes some extra coordination, but remember, recruiting is a 24/7, 365-day-a-year process, and the more that non-music students and future potential students see how much fun your current students are having, the more they will want to be a part of it. 

Retention Tip

If you haven’t booked the first concert for your newbies yet, now is the time! Download the FREE First Performance National Day of Celebration Toolkit and get ready to share the joy of the very first music-making experience with your beginners, their parents, and your administration. This 20-25 minute, scripted concert event generates a lot of excitement for everyone and leads to increased retention overall. 

Success Tip

It goes without saying that being a music educator requires a multitude of various tasks and having assistance makes all the difference. Now is the time to recruit and engage the parents of your new students who may be able to lend a hand and just need a little guidance on what they can do. Not only does it help to increase your efficiency, but it is also the first step toward building relationships with those who care the most about your students — their parents! NAfME has provided a wealth of information on how parents can support a music program and the Music Travel blog provides guidance through suggested key steps on getting parents involved. Be sure to involve the parents of current students who may be your best resource on engaging new parents.

Heaven Your Way Bible App Is Seeking Crowdfunding For Their New Project

Heaven Your Way Bible App is an outreach platform for fans and recording artists. It is the collective voices of like-minded music recording artists, Presidents and CEOs of record labels, industry executives, and national radio hosts. The App was created out of a desire to bring joy and uplift people’s spirits through voice-over Bible narrations. HYW Bible App is seeking Crowdfunding. If you like to participate, please submit your name and email address here.

HYW Bible App features 1,000 independent and Award-winning music recording artists narrating the new King James Bible along with 1,189 original songs. The voice-over management production is by Edge Studio. Heaven Your Way boosts a roster of stars from every music genre and has over a thousand original melodies. Mr. Charles Marshall is the brainchild and creator of the app.

After observing the physical and physiological devastation caused by COVID in 2020, Mr. Marshall came up with the idea for the project. The concept was to gather together recording artists for voice-over narrations of the new King James Bible with the goal of assisting people in agony all around the world.

It was a simple, yet ambitious idea with the hopes to aid in healing for people in pain. We spoke to Mr. Marshall and asked about his creation of this app and he said "This pandemic has turned the entire world upside down creating a sense of doubt, hopelessness, fear, and in many instances, it's turned family against family. So, I ventured into the creation of a Bible App called "Heaven Your Way" with the sole purpose of uplifting people's spirit, touching their hearts, and building bridges", said Mr. Marshall.

We also asked why would people want to listen to the Bible rather than read it and why is this version different? He responded, “Reading is not always feasible for many people. Trying to read a Bible while traveling to work or working out at the gym, for example, isn’t the easiest. In truth, many Bible readers are unable to read due to vision difficulties, linguistic hurdles, or a general lack of reading ability, education, or age”.

Heaven Your Way is not like any other audible Bible out there. Many celebrity artists are already scheduled to be a part of the project. These artists read 929 chapters in the New King James Bible and perform original tracks for release via the app. HYW is bound to strike a chord (no pun intended) with young and old alike. The project will include songs based on storylines of each chapter in the Bible, that’s 1,189 new original songs.

The app includes Contemporary Christian, Gospel, Southern Gospel Quartets, R&B, Christian Rock, Urban, Country, Christian Hip-hop, Folk, Jazz, Neo-Soul, Disco Divas, Bluegrass, and Motown luminaries. HYW combines music industry legends and celebrities, like Khristian Dentley, Joseph Habedank, Marshall Hall, Tribute Quartet members, Reba Rambo and Fred Hammond. The dedicated roster includes Grammy Award winners, Dove Award winners, Country Music Hall Of Fame Inductees, International Bluegrass Award winners, Soul Train Award winners, Billboard, BMI, ASCAP, Stellar Award winners, AMA winners, and more!

In short, Heaven Your Way is a new take on the Bible that has never been done before. The App is in preproduction and is due for release in March 2022. Everyone’s welcome to enjoy Heaven Your Way Bible App for a truly inspirational journey.

If you are ready to get started, have questions, or can participate in Crowdfunding, feel free to reach out at any time on their Website.

Young Habibi Releases Hot New Single "Solo To The End" - Listen

This is going to be a breakout year for Young Habibi as he has just released his highly-anticipated single “Solo To The End.

Stunning and delightful from start to finish, the track transports the audience into a unique musical world blessed by emotions and melodic elements. “Solo To The End” sends us straight to another planet.

The track is an instant, heartfelt classic. It’s touching and quietly sentimental. The music has an intricate and very personal feel, offering a small, refreshing slice of humanity to contrast the harsh world we live in. 

“Solo To The End” is a new world to explore, a musical experience that will catch your attention and feelings from the first notes which tells a story of how we are all by ourselves at the end no matter what, and dramatically the song supports the melodic beat-intensity which accompanies the track beautifully.

Check out his recent interview on iHeart Radio via Vigilante Radio

Sheeran’s manager Stuart Camp spoke of the musician’s forthcoming 2022 tour as well as plans for a fifth album.

“This tour is going to span three or four years, and there will be another record within that cycle, that was always the plan,” Camp explained (via Contact Music).

“It’s more a question of stopping him putting another record out the week after this one. The material is there and it won’t be another four-year wait, I can promise you.”

He continued: “Ed already knows what the next album is. He’s already got a track-listing for it, and I will get that changed over the next 12 months.

“Ed writes so many songs, and he wants to get them out, he doesn’t want them just sitting on his hard drive.”

The UK and Ireland leg of Sheeran’s  ‘+ – = ÷ x Tour’ – pronounced ‘The Mathematics Tour’ – is due to kick off in April. The star will play four nights at Wembley Stadium in London between June 24 and July 1.

Yesterday (October 24) Ed Sheeran revealed that he had contracted COVID-19, and will therefore be “doing as many of my planned interviews/performances I can from my house”.

The singer is due to appear as the musical guest on next week’s edition of Saturday Night Live (November 6). It is currently unclear whether Sheeran will still be able to feature on SNL, which usually hosts its live music performances in its New York studio.

Meanwhile, Ed Sheeran is set to release a new collaborative Christmas song with Elton John.

Meet Seanote the Servant of God

One thing everyone realizes about Seanote, if you are around him long enough, is he loves the Lord Jesus and is not afraid to let you know it.  He was saved at age 7. He never got into smoking, drinking, or cursing. He only had two girlfriends and married the second one. At age 11, he was witnessing to his schoolmates.  He remembers an incident at school when a teacher told him to take his bible home and not to bring it back.  Some of his classmates called him preacher man.

Seanote always loved to sing. He first started singing on church choirs in Charlotte, NC. When he moved to Lancaster, PA, he remembers his father teaching him about singing and harmonizing.  Then, he joined his church choir for about 12 years until he went to college. Also during this time, he started performing in stage productions and films.  

Seanote became a professional actor and trained in New York City. He has been in movies with Denzel Washington, Oprah Winfrey, Charlie Sheen, Omar Epps, Robert Redford, Tom Berenger, Mark Wahlberg, and many others.  Seanote was headed for the big screen.  He had also been working on a positive R&B album for the youth because he was tired of them listening to music with bad messages and bad language.  Seanote went to Los Angeles, CA, to film his first music video.  With his album and video finished, he was ready to release them, but he received a  phone call to go to Kampala, Uganda (Africa ) on a 10-day tour. While there, he performed before 100,000 people.

It was in Uganda where God started tugging at Seanote's heart, showing him the real meaning of Gospel Music. He was ready to release his album nationwide, but the last concert in Africa changed his life forever. That night, there were about 70,000 in attendance. After the concert, 15,000 people accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior.  Seanote realized that bringing souls into the kingdom of God is what singing Gospel Music is all about.

When Seanote returned home, he had a big decision to make. Should he continue with his dream of being a film and R&B star, or give it all up and see what God's plan was? So, he did what he was used to doing. He prayed and asked God what to do. God gave him the choice.  God spoke to  his spirit and said, "You can continue on the path you are on, or you can work for me." Seanote asked God, "Why did you not stop me from recording the album in the first place?" God replied, "You never asked me if you should do it.  You decided this on your own.  I let you record it, but I was not going to let you release it to the masses." Seanote told God his decision was to work for Him.

Seanote pulled the music video so it would never be seen by the masses. He also pulled back every copy of the CD he could get from the distribution company. The company informed Seanote he would lose all future royalties, but he did not care.  Seanote also called his movie agent and told her he did not want to act in any movies that were not Christian-based. His agent was a little angry, but understood because she was a Christian as well. Seanote has turned down many movie and TV scripts due to his faith.

He remembers one script in particular. He was to be cast in a new TV series in New York.  When he met with the director to read the script, it was filled with bad language. Seanote told the director he would not read the script. The director asked him to explain. Seanote said he was a Christian and would not read such words. The director thought Seanote was crazy because the role was to pay $20.000 a week. Seanote left and thought to himself, if the devil could pay him $20.000 a week, God could pay him $100.000 a week. He also remembers when he walked out, someone stopped him in the hallway and said, "I heard what you said and agreed with you.  I walked out too because I am also a Christian." They shook hands and thanked God for the strength to walk away. Seanote realized that you never know who is watching you, and how what you do can affect someone else's life. 

After choosing to work for God,  Seanote dedicated his talents to serving the Lord.

He has recently completed his debut Gospel Album (First Service) and also finished writing his first Christian movie script. With all of his Hollywood contacts and the blessing of the Lord, the Movie should be a big success.  The Movie is to be picked up by a Major Studio soon. God has truly blessed Seanote!

RodThaGreat Releases New EP, 'The Art Of Slumber'

19-year-old NYC/Atlanta-based rapper RodThaGreat has been creating a name for himself all 2021 and is definitely here to stay. This year will be one to remember for the young artist, as he completed a lot of things dreamt about years ago but never thought would come to fruition so soon. 2021 will only get better for the artist as he recently dropped his sophomore EP project that's been teased since the fall of last year. His freshmen EP " Dark Nights Of The Soul" was the perfect project to represent the world during that time, and still holds up in sound quality and today and has aged very well. This new EP "The Art Of Slumber '' sets RodThaGreat apart from most other music artists within his age range and shows us just what he's capable of artistically and creatively.

His debut single to the project "Birthdays" put many eyes on the young artist, with many wondering what exactly is in store for his future. His latest awaited EP will answer that question in a very unique way. The Garden charted on iTunes and peaked at #57 which is impressive for an independent artist. Mental growth, spiritual growth, and immense willpower, and vulnerability are usually the basis of his music-making process.

You might have a hard time comparing RodThaGreat to any other artists of his time because his voice and sound are so unique, as well as the topics of interest he usually chooses. RodThaGreat isn't afraid to be a young intellectual through his music and isn't afraid to say things that are on his mind or lingering in his psyche. The ability to be vulnerable with your audience is the skill of a true talented music artist. I think we should all stay tuned for what the young poet will do next. The Art Of Slumber is now out on all major platforms.

Follow his movement on Instagram and stream his new single on Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud, and Amazon Music.
