Big Bang Theory

Hip hop duo Leadgeon & Will Sully present Big Bang Theory another collaborative banger single.  In high school, DJ and producer Leadgeon was introduced to Hip Hop music.  Leadgeon grew up listening to Run-D.M.C., L L Cool J, and EPMD. He was signed to a record label but it didn’t go well for him at that time.  This was the spark he needed to become a self-producer, writer, recording artist and businessman of his own entity.   Using what he learned from his label experience, Leadgeon launched 16 Bars to Life.  This succeeded a catalog of albums produced, written and performed by Leadgeon. Proving his authenticity as a recording artist.  Discovering the overall artist development process, it pushed him into his producer hat as well.  This established him as an artist and producer.  Being recognized as both some of his tracks include cosigns from various artists requesting his talent and skills.  Without question not being signed to a label turned out for his good.  Reigning from Queens NY, where Hip Hops blueprints like LL Cool J, Nas and Tribe Called Quest resided.  Let it be known that Leadgeon is standing on business and music.  Creating standout tracks like Vanna White, Red Light, Lethal Medicine and Streets Keep Calling.  The new single Big Bang Theory does not disappoint, featuring Will Sully.

Don’t Let The Devil Ride

Strait Street Music Group and The Leonard Lothlen Project present a new single featuring Leonard Lothlen on vocals titled Don’t Let The Devil Ride.  The lyrics warn people to seek good over evil, choose right over wrong, and exercise kindness before malice.  Don’t Let The Devil Ride challenges us to resist the temptations of sin and deadly forces that continue to plague our world.  I know this is not a popular conversation or song.  However, it should be every Christian’s anthem in these end times.  There is only one who will try to hinder your success in life, steal your joy and distract you from claiming your victory.  Yep! You guessed it, the Devil.  Now I know magazines won’t share this good news, that you can be free to live your best life without practicing sin, but we are a staff of Christian believers.  Therefore, we are excited when we hear a song like this.

MUSIC COMPOSER PIANIST PHENOM

Karen Salicath – Jamali’s 8th studio album, part classical, part new age – titled, Angel Hanael’s Song, released on April 26, 2024, through Spotify, Apple Music and on all major digital platforms. Karen’s new project promises to gain international acclaim, particularly with the otherworldly way the tracks are conceived.  The highly anticipated first single and first track, Angel Hanael’s Song, released on April 8th, 2024, and second single, Angel Hanael’s Joy, will be released on April 23, 2024. The album cover art was created by Karen Salicath – Jamali as well.  Karen Salicath – Jamali has a very remarkable way of composing her virtuoso music, she is a vessel for one of her many angel guides. She had a head injury from an accident in 2012, after a 3-year recovery she miraculously began to hear music in her dreams, guided by angels, and the rest is history.  The angel Hanael, her current album’s namesake, is one of the seven archangels. Hanael, also known as Haniel, is generally associated with the planet Venus, and is the archangel of joy and intuition.  This album has been written and conceived in her dreams by communication from Angel Hanael.  There are many roads for composers to create music, but for Karen it all comes organically, and pretty much is out of her control. Karen receives her music in her dreams from a variety of angels.  She recaptures all the music once she is awake and at her Steinway grand piano. Karen’s ethereal music process evokes many emotions from herself and the listener, but it’s a rare phenomenon, all her own.
