Unsigned Talent: Shani Star – (914)

20140130-135721.jpg

I had the pleasure of going to elementary school with this talented individual. Shout out to Pennington Grimes class of 2002!

Hailing from Mount Vernon, NY (914) Shani Star is an up and coming young musician for whom the sky is truly the limit. With her successful “Hello World” EP and the release of her debut “Never Gon’ Stop” music video, the future looks bright for this young star!

Born and raised in New York, Shani Star is a stunner on the court. Not only does she schools the fellas in basketball, but at the drums too – her first love in music. Though she plays other instruments as well, it is on a drum set where her true talents shine and her joy and love for music are most apparent. She is just as comfortable drumming as she is spitting rhymes on the mic and it is these skills that serve her best in the pursuit of her ultimate music goals – rapping, drumming, and music production. With her hard work ethics, her determination to become successful.

 “While growing up in church, my eyes were opened to the TRUTH, the VALUE OF LIFE, what we should be doing with our gifts and how we should live our lives. We should use our gifts for God and make a positive impact in this world. I don’t want to put my talents to waste”

Love you Shani! Make Mount Vernon proud!

SQUASHED BEEF! NEW MUSIC! Dj Kay Slay feat. 50 Cent & Fat Joe – Free Again

20140125-112533.jpg

NEW YORK CITY! Now this might not be what everybody wants to hear, but its different from the same ol’ same ol’, you can’t knock that. You thought it was over for the sound but don’t forget where Hip Hop Mecca is! The south has had reign over radio waves with the party scene for a while but you need balance in this industry. Looks like the North side is creeping back regaining power strategically. Everything isn’t one big party! Get back to talking that real on record! Not just dreads swinging and turning up every few bars! Exercise real lyrical talent and story telling!

With a squashed beef behind them 50 cent and Fat Joe get back to that grit and grime taking shots and never afraid..like true New Yorkers! Cocky and confident..but is the first take strong enough? Was this just a lure to get you pulled into what has been cooking up? You never know what the next move is. Im sure you didn’t see this coming! What next?

PUERTO RICAN PRINCESS? PUERTO RICAN QUEEN?! Jenny from the block is back on the scene with DJ Mustard. Also on American Idol now its clear the bootylicious Latina isn’t going anywhere! I miss those “On The 6” and “Love Don’t Cost A Thing” days ..Mami was booming! Check her history!

Holding the title for the first Latina actress to get paid over a million per movie as well as the first artist to have a number one movie and album in the same week! Shout out to the Bronx, NY queen!

Miss KMichelle we see you baby!

20140122-105043.jpg

Forget “shaking the table” KMichelle is shaking the GAME right now..along with those hips! Her version of Yo Gotti’s “F*ck You” track is HIGHLY ANTICIPATED and will be on her next project. Still prepping her mixtape “Still No F*cks Given” expected to be released on Valentines Day 2014 . After Love & Hiphop NY (Vh1) plays out she will have her own show called “No New Friends”.  The mixtape follows her previous body of work “0 Fucks Given” released in 2012.

Her album Rebellious Soul was a GOOD ALBUM but she was snubbed by the grammys this year with 0 nominations. Staying positive this still is going to be a good year for the Memphis, Tennessee native!

#Beyonce feat. #BustaRhymes #AzealiaBanks – #PartitionRemix

image

A mix of Texas trill and New York swag on the track. Beyonce delivers a sexually charged alter ego type sound. A bit different from the Beyonce we all are used to hearing on her latest album. On this remix you get a slick mouth from both Busta Rhymes and Azealia Banks.

“Driver roll up the partition pleaseeeee..” – Beyonce

Take a Listen:
