At the tender age of 14, he fell into the clutches of his city’s underbelly and started selling drugs, under the wing of a neighborhood drug dealer. This led him down a dangerous path that culminated in a life-altering incident in 2007, where he was shot seven times during an attempted robbery.. He was later incarcerated and served 12 years. But even in prison, Millione never lost sight of his goal, spending countless hours writing and perfecting his craft. Now that he's turned his life around, Millione Mills is back, and he's more determined than ever to take the music industry by storm. Under the management of Ronald Beaulieu & Andre Charlot, Mills has worked with some of the most talented producers in the game, including bradondatrack, DJ BlaqNmild and TracBurna. Millione's music is not just about entertaining his fans; it's about inspiring them. His lyrics reflect his journey, his struggles, and his triumphs. Through his music, Millione wants to show the world that, no matter how tough the road may be, with hard work and dedication, anything is possible.

Spotlight on Sleepy Loco as he releases "In Mook We Trust"

Memphis, the home of the blues has definitely contributed to the sound of the rap scene since the 90s. Most people would agree that the home of Elvis has provided a trendsetting culture that continues to have a global impact through dark melodies and jookin’. As labels continue to sign talent  from one of the hottest markets,  Sleepy Loco has been establishing himself as one of the city's upcoming artists from the Bluff.


In 2022, the Memphis rapper followed up his fifthteen city “No Deal” promotional tour, by dropping Blu Language 2:Out The Blue. This project garnered over a million streams along with over 500,000 listeners just on his Spotify alone. The Lifted Life Ent spokesman expanded his fan base that populated after going bar for bar with featured artists such as Premo Rice “Popcorn Playa”, Starlito “Not Like Mine”, Eddie Valero “Monopoly”, TripStar “Free The Real” along with platinum producers such as  Hitkidd and Blame Swagg.


Fast forward to 2023, Loco’s latest release is a EP titled “In Mook We Trust” dedicated to his uncle who inspired him to rap. On this project, unlike the trending music coming out the 901, this project contains the boom bap laced with soulful symphonies and samples. As Loco takes you on a deep journey capturing his thoughts revealing the pain he’s felt over the years. Check out ”Heaviest of Hearts”as he polishes this track over a jazzy feel with his mellow yet thoughtful approach, opening up about fighting depression to losing his uncle Mook early and grandmother to cancer. Although he provides us with pain symphonies, he pushes p on “Spaceships from Memphis” as he exemplifies a better version of himself expressing himself on lines like “I’m me 2.0, new and improved” followed with audio from a scene on The Mack. This is the first song released off this project as fans enjoyed his performance live, as he graced the stage prior to Premo Rice headlining the show. This song also has gained over 2 million views on Facebook alone. The Lifted Life CEO opens up more with lines such as “I can’t feel sh*t I need more affection, mama pray to God I get  a spiritual connection” on the track titled “I Cant Feel”. By contrast, the East Memphian is more focused on staying real with himself and less concerned with the wave as he lyrically paints a canvas on tracks such as  “Be Myself” and “Always Working”. In addition to the EP, he links with fellow Memphian, Don Trip on “100 Million Dollar Dreams” revealing his loyalty for his brothers and continuing to keep his brother Choppa G name alive, who died tragically in 2022. This project sonically has a different feel from the BLU Language series but gives you a more in depth formal invitation into Sleepy’s world as he transparently taps into another dimension. The year is looking bright for him as he pushes his pen proving he’s one of the best emcees rising out of one of rap music's  hottest markets in the world.

Spotlight on Rapper One80

Rapper One80 is one of Houston’s upcoming artists on the Hip Hop scene. Teren Avery took on his stage name after serving close to 18 years in prison. One80 has already caught the attention of LeAnn Rimes and Dr. Dre.
At the age of 9, One80 suffered from child abuse at the hands of his stepfather. The abuse led to One80 ran away from home. Running away, Avery stole a car, hustled and in August of 2003, set fire to an abandoned house. Arson earned him 18 years in prison. Avery served most of it in TDCJ’s Estelle Unit in Huntsville at the age of 17.
While serving his sentence, Avery earned the nickname One80. Then, he picked up plastic spoons and began making beats. Avery’s beats covered by rap lyrics were recorded in prison. Avery sent his cousin his music, which soon became a waiting game for Avery to be released from prison. Avery learned important life lessons such as philosophy, chess and encouraged him to fly straight once he made parole.
After Avery served most of his sentence, within 3 months Avery produced 17 minute a documentary of his life that covers his start in music. Soon afterwards Avery released his music and started selling his music on Amazon.
Not too long afterwards LeAnn Rimes heard his music and invited him to perform in with her at Gruene Hall in Austin.
“For me to be a rapper and be able to perform there, I’ve never seen that many cowboy hats in my life,” Avery said. “You know what, and for them to accept me, this is why I feel like music is so beautiful.”
Dr. Dre called him via FaceTime to talk business, too.
“I was like man, you are Dr. Dre,” Avery said. “This is crazy. This is beyond a dream come true.”
His single, “Miles Away”, has been well received and confirms his start as a artist.

Spotlight on TJ Boyce "Ghetto America"

My inspiration- “We’re in an unprecedented place in the history of this country. Division is at an all-time high and empathy seems to be at an all time low. With Ghetto America, my aim is ultimately to do my small part to inspire Americans of all shades towards empathy and redemption. The song was inspired by my own true life experiences of wanting to get ahead and striving to be successful. The lyrics are a narrative from a man that realizes that the gambles that he has taken in his life aren't worth it. He knows that he must change his to ultimately make a better life for himself & his family.


For the music video, I wanted all of us get a glimpse of what it would feel like if the traditional roles of injustice were reversed, in hopes that this shared experience would revive in each of us a desire to do better individually as well as collectively.


Because I truly believe that if we can acknowledge each other’s pain, journey through it together, and discover the intrinsic value and worth in each of us, that we can all emerge as better people on the other side...of Ghetto America “~ TJ Boyce

Spotlight on Sarah Jane (@daisyjane200)

2016 is shaping up to be a promising year for up-and-coming artist, Sarah Jane. For the last two-and-a-half years she’s been working diligently on her debut EP titled “Killer Robots.”

I’ve been working out of three studios. It’s been an amazing process,” she stated. “I’m so proud of all the work that we’ve put into it. We’ve put in a lot of long, long nights, but I feel all the hard work is going to pay off.

The upcoming EP is scheduled for a possible summer/fall release. According to rising star in the making, it promises not to disappoint. Fans will be easily captivated by it after listening to the first few bars, Jane, who is also an accomplished pianist, stated.

“The EP is really open, fun, imaginative. I really wanted to leave it up to the fans to decipher what kind of music they think it is. It’s really fun because it starts off light, then it gets more R&B and hip hop towards the third and fourth song,” she described. “It really showcases my talent, not just as a singer but as a pianist, too.”

The first single off the project is a catchy tune titled “Beautiful Magic.” It’s one of her favorite songs from the project.

It’s about finding love and finding someone who makes you feel beautiful. The beats more urban and pop,” Jane explained.

Not surprisingly, the title track from the EP, “Killer Robots,” raises a few eyebrows. Many are amused by it—obviously due to the unique title, but then quickly fall in love with the beat and lyrics.

“I really wanted to have a story that is pretty and melodic but also had some humor. It’s very simple, but it’s fun to sing a lot,” she stated. It’s cool to see the reaction of people in the studio when they listen to it. Then start laughing. Its just me and this song and the piano—and then, of course, me talking about killer robots,” she laughed.

The EP will soon be featured on iTunes. For updates and to learn more about Jane, check her out on Twitter.

Spotlight on V.A.I.N. (@itsvain) by @IamTonyNeal

Core Djs introduces emerging artist "V.A.I.N"

Vain1

Emerging Hip – Hop artist, V.A.I.N. did not miss a beat as he grew up with the intimate musical influences of his parents who were both members of bands back in the 80’s. V.A.I.N. recalls as a kid, his mother would make him perform Slick Rick songs at all family functions. After graduating high school in Queens, New York where V.A.I.N. was born and raised, he began working full time while continuing to aggressively pursue his music career.

In 2004, V.A.I.N’s father passed away and due to the loss, he channeled and refocused his energy into his music and has since been aggressively pursuing his musical career. Inspired heavily by Hip-Hop music of the late 80’s and 90’s, V.A.I.N. admires artists such as NAS, Mobb Deep, Nature, and A Tribe Called Quest. In order to master his craft as a well-rounded artist, V.A.I.N. extensively immersed himself into developing his craft by listening to diverse records and pushing the envelope as an innovative writer. V.A.I.N. has mastered the lyrical balance of lethal fierce word play, witty social commentary, and poetic story telling. As he recollects, “eventually, I got nice and my first record touched radio in 2005. It was a joint called, ’Toss Da Paper’.” Describing his own
musical style, V.A.I.N. stated, “I believe I come from an educated yet street point of view, where I’m giving people insight into life. What I desire to
accomplish through my music is to educate, inspire as well as entertain. I think I write from the heart first and then the mind. There is nothing in the entire world quite like performing and I simply can’t get enough of the euphoric musical high!” It is perfectly summarized in V.A.I.N’s favorite quote, “music is an audio vibration of a person’s soul. ” V.A.I.N has opened for Hip-Hop artists including DMX, Fabolous, Foxy Brown, Corrupt and the Clips. He has worked with some of Hip-Hop’s most sought after producers including Teflon, P.F.Cuttin, Terrence Dudley, Jelly Roll and Fingers.

Artist Spotlight on Cross (@Dcross23)

Who is Cross

DRox

Born in June 5th, 1990 Davion Deshawn Cross was the seventh of eight children and unlike many others, at the beginning had a stable structure. In a two-parent household this young black man had, what may sound crazy, a step up on the area he would be raised. He would be able to see a man support his family as oppose to seeing his mother struggle to raise him and his siblings alone.

That so called step up would all change one day coming home from church. The family would find a letter from their father revealing he had left them to fend for themselves. Unknowing to Davion that’s the day he became Cross.

The strength he would see in his mother, the loyalty from his brothers, the love and the protection he had for his little sister would eventually prove to make him the man he would eventually become. There still would be growing pains.
