10/26/2020 #hot #new single, "Bounce," by @therealsimbaa #nowplaying @atlwebradio #tuneinorbetunedoutRead Now The Real Simba, born in Jamaica, was transplanted to Mount Vernon at the age of seven. There he fell in love with Hip-Hop culture and music. He began writing poetry, which then evolved to songs. He describes himself as "a fun-loving kid from the 'Ville with a dream, goal, passion, and drive. In this spirit, he strives to shift his contribution to Hip-Hop culture away from negativity and violence and, instead, make music that is fun, up-tempo and inspirational. Now, all grown up, The Real Simba has recently released such an energetic new single Bounce, now playing on Atlwebradio.com and available on all platforms. 10/25/2020 @SoloLaMaze enlightening listeners with his new single, "Ain't normal" #nowplaying @atlwebradio #tuneinorbetunedoutRead Now When you think about a gifted artist there are not too many as creative and talented as Solo LaMaze. Born in Chicago and raised in Louisville, KY he is a breath of fresh air for the growing music scene in the Midwest. As with all the greats, Solo LaMaze found his passion early, picking up the mic at the tender age of 11. His love for hip-hop and music started in battle rap but soon evolved when he begin his career as a recording artist at age 12. Experience is the best teacher, and his teenage years were spent perfecting his craft, not only as an artist, but also as a producer and engineer. Little did he know that the countless hours spent in the studio would place him leaps and bounds ahead of the competition. His debut project “Year of Solo” released in 2003 with much success and was followed by “Synthetic Dope LP” where he acted as executive producer, producing and engineering the entire album himself. In the coming years he followed suit dropping “Bowel Movement” (no pun intended), “Beast Mode Vol. 1 & 2”, “Rare Form”, and “Sushi Sushi Sushi”. When local producers denied him access to studio time and beats, much like his hometown hero Muhammad Ali, he responded like any champion would and opened his own studio and production company, Organized Swagg, before his 18th birthday. His first single “Eeeh” blazed Louisville’s number one hip-hop station, B96.5 WGZB, for weeks and when his next single followed, “Lace Me Up”, he was basically a household name. As his acclaim increased so did his ambitions to be more than a local artist/producer, and his cutting edge and diverse style had already caught the ear of some of the music industry’s leading artists. Besides Lil Wayne, Solo was the last person to work with Grammy Award winning rapper Static Major before his untimely death, an experience he’ll never forget. His credits as producer go on to include the likes of David Banner, Beanie Sigel, Juvenile, Sean Paul of the Young Bloods, Kool Daddy Fresh, Twista, J-Kwon, Mr. Serve On, and Young Bleed to name a few. Whether Hip-Hop, R&B, Pop, or Rock, Solo LaMaze’s skill as an artist and producer allows him to bring the best out of any artist who has the privilege of working with him. True to form, he is now blessing the airwaves with his hot new single, Ain't Normal, an insightful social commentary about the harsh realities of the "new normal" our society has come to accept. Solo LaMaze is a gift to the music industry. 10/5/2020 @misterquon new hit single "OG Status" #nowplaying @atlwebradio #tuneinorbetunedoutRead Now Hailing from New Orleans, LA by way of Tuscon, AZ and Amarillo, TX, Quon is making a splash on the Atlanta music scene as well. He grew up listening to Hip Hop greats like Tupac, Outkast, and Ice Cube. Then, he started his own career as Young Quon and signed with B Storm/Fontana. Now older, wiser, and independent, he has dropped the "Young" and is firing up the music scene with such hits as "I'm It," "Favors," and his new single "OG Status." In his spare time, he listens to Roddy Rich, and he hopes to one day work with Curren$y and/or the Mekanix. |
