Artist of the Week: Esperanza Spalding

The Beautiful and Talented Esperanza Spalding, Is our AoW.  With a new album and Video out, you have to check Esperanza out.

By The Rock-It Scientist | January 21st 2016

In 2011 Esperanza Spalding won a Grammy for Best New Artist against Drake, Florence + The Machine, Justin Bieber, and Mumford & Sons.  This Berklee College alumni surprised everyone including me.  I was wondering, how come I never heard from Esperanza Spalding and how good is her music that she beat all these other artist that I did heard of.
I went and found her music and I listened.  Oh my goodness, it was good, real good.  This wasn't regular Jazz music, she definitely had influence from other music including pop and she is a beautiful lady as well.  I like her style, I became a fan.  Now Esperanza is out with a new video and song, "Good Lava" and you have to check it out.
Esperanza Spalding's album, "Emily's D+Evolution," will be out on March 4th, 2016

Did You Know, Elle King was born...

by Mister Promo | November 4, 2015

Elle King

She was born, Tanner Elle Schneider. Yes, her father is actor and comedian, Robert Schneider. Her mother is a former model named London King, which is where the last name King derived from in her stage name. She knew full well that if she were to present herself as Tanner Schneider or even Elle Schneider that she would, by default, end up riding the coattail of her father. Instead, she changed her name to read Elle King. This way she could travel her own path and create her own resources connections along the way.

She grew up traveling back and forth between Ohio and L.A. However, she currently resides in Brooklyn, NYC, and also records her music there. For the time being, you can experience a live perforance of Elle King in Brooklyn and Harlem. Those locatons will grow and vary soon enough.

I say, it was a brilliant move to decide the name change to Elle King. Keep up the great work.

See you at the top.

Taija New - "Newbian King" (@TaijaNew)

Written by Mister Promo | September 24, 2015

Taija New

The woman behind who you view onstage. She is more than just a Hip Hop lyricist and dancer. She is also a songwriter and one of the very, very few hardest working female indie artist I know. This woman holds talent in many areas.

Taija has put forth an extreme amount of hours to combine her love and passion for music, dance, art and life together to create the ultimate experience for you, her audience. 

Her heavy hitting (and at times) carnal texts demonstrate her ability to conform to every genre, tempo, and rhythm of tune. Yet this is all done entirely, still, with you in mind, her audience. 

Taija is currently working on her debut EP "Color Me Complex". Which features her sophomore single, "Newbian King".

Performing this single live for the first time it received the exact amount of attention it should have. Amazing!

Check that out in the video below.
I implore that you watch the entire video. It features two singles by Taija New, however, Newbian King begins at 4:07.

This performance was filmed live at the
1st Annual Latino Festival
Hartford, CT.

The phenomenal, Taija New.
The self-motivated, Taija New.
The all around talked about,
at the same time, America's 
best kept secret, Taija New.
This woman has enough drive
to power a 2016 Bugatti Veyron.

If you aren't ready for her,
then I suggest you take a backseat.



Taija New is moving in every
direction except down.
This Springfield, MA resident,
born and raised, just may be
what the city needs to jump start
the music industry outside of the
rock/alternative music scene.

There are many rap artist residing in
Springfield, MA who have talent but
very few possess the vision for success.
Taija New has both.

DJ Teisha Matthews (@TeishaMatthews)

Written by Mister Promo | September 23, 2015

Teisha Matthews

You may know of TM in multiple ways. For she has a skill in various areas. One, modeling. As you can see judging from the photo presented just above. Two, a presenter. Such as the YouTube Video titled "How Not To Approach Women!" This is, in fact, where I saw her first. Hilarious.

And more recently, "How to conceal Dark Circles/Under Eyes"

Oh and three, you most likely know of her as an awesome Disc Jockey.

Let's cut to the chase. If you are like me you get uncontrollably excited when you see a female disc jockey. Sometimes a DJ could be mixing their tunes so good that you just want to spend your entire paycheck on drinks for the DJ. However, the DJ is usually a male and in my case, I'm also a male. I believe I would be sending the wrong message if I were to do that for a male DJ. Now, if I entered a party or a club and the DJ were Teisha, without a doubt, it would be a wrap and I would be broke.

Her mixes have this throwback feel. Their like yesterday wrapped in the present. These mixes are definitely party starters. Check'em out!

"She's unlike any artist that's out there now, a world class singer with a true gift" quote by Don Was.

Billboard believes that Henley's music has the ability to stand the test of time. 

"We'll see about that. I'll see you in 1-2 years" #MPsays.
Cause everyone knows that 10yrs
yesterday equal to 1yr today.
