Wes Jamell – Its A Go

Wes Jamell Showcases authenticity and Originality
with New Single “It’s a Go”

MAYSVILLE, KY – From out of Northern Kentucky – just a few miles down the road from Cincinnati – comes a versatile new rapper and artist named Wes Jamell. This one-time budding basketball star has been shot, stabbed and seen several sides of the street life, but through it all still managed to graduate college – in large part due to basketball, and its that struggle and journey that he has taken to the center stage with his music.

His most recent offering to the world is a single called “It’s a Go.” It’s a personal song full of aggression – with four minutes of straight bars that are so intriguing they literally pull you in, forcing you to give the track your attention. Though the song doesn’t have a chorus, Jamell said anyone who hears the song will be just as entertained in the 4th minute as they were the 1st.

“When I originally made the song I was hearing a lot of sneak dissing and hating going on,” Jamell said. “So this track was specifically made for them nig*as and bit*h-as* nig*as like them. It’s definitely an aggressive track, but the fans won’t fully get to know me until they witness my versatility as an artist. My versatility is something I believe the industry and my growing fan base will definitely be attracted to and appreciate. I’m a very solid dude, yet I have a heart that’s more genuine than most, feel me?”

Jamell said he can’t remember a day when music wasn’t a part of his life. From the time he was a young kid he was surrounded by family members and friends who loved to sing and rap. By age 11 he was writing his own raps and studying some of the greats from 2Pac, Bone Thugs N Harmony, & 3-6 Mafia, to 90’s R&B from R-Kelly to Jodeci, while still being inspired by some artist of today. But to Wes, ORIGINALITY IS KEY!

One of the first songs he dropped a couple of years ago when he first started taking music more seriously was a track called “My Niggas,” which speaks upon him being shot and some other life-or-death situations he and some of his close friends have endured. His city loved the song because they were aware of the authenticity behind it, & quickly attracted to his movement.

“I’m from a small-a*s town, but as far as drugs and all that go I was brought up in the less- fortunate part of the city, so drugs and violence has always been around me,” he said. “It’s very hard to not become somewhat a product of your environment, even though it is possible. But with all the negativity I try and keep my music as positive as I can without sugar-coating things. As a city, we are kind of in the middle of nowhere – being like 45 minutes from Cincinnati and maybe an hour away from Lexington, which are significantly bigger cities.”

Eventually, Jamell said he hopes to put together the kind of career that will allow him to support the people around him – his loved ones and those who have believed in him every step of the way. This new single is the next step toward making that dream happen. The song is available now on iTunes, Spotify and all other major music-sharing platforms – as is a mixtape of the same name, “It’s a Go.” Next in motion is music video for the single that will be shot by Cole Bennett, a videographer who has been taking the professional industry by storm – shooting for the likes of Kevin Gates, Lil Pump, Lil Skies, Lil Xan and Juice Wrld, just to name a few. Bennet said he really liked the song and that “A dope visual to it will definitely set things off,” which Jamell said helps him to believe that he’s up next.

Kna-Lo Venge – Sex Boom Bank Bugatti

Kna-Lo Venge showcases original talent with three-
song performance project

LOS ANGELES, CA – Since the passing of Prince, and before him Michael Jackson, the world has been waiting for an artist who is truly an original… an artist that can raise eyebrows and turn heads and make you sit up and pay attention.

Kna-Lo Venge is that artist. Like the legends before him, he brings a fierce boldness to be himself in ways that at first might seem odd, but as you dig deeper you realize there are layers upon layers to his personality and his music. His sound is unique and universal. As a rapper, singer, producer and instrumentalist, he is truly that one-of-a-kind artist the world needs.

In a phrase: he just gives good music.

“That’s what I’m going to always give you,” he said. “I’m gonna give you all that I have – the best mixing, mastering, everything … the highest quality, well-written songs and well-produced songs. The quality is there because the music is what matters to me above all else. Image can be wiped away with a napkin, but as long as the music is solid, then you’re good.”

It only takes one listen for fans to know that the music is solid. His new mini-concert performance EP is a perfect example. The three-song project, with a bonus track at the end, shows off his diversity and those layers behind the music in impressive ways.

To start there’s “Sex Boom Bank Buggati,” a hip-hop song that’s about all of those things – sex, money and a certain kind of lifestyle. At first glance listeners might think it’s your typical rap song, with a pure hip-hop sound. But dig deeper and fans will see that Kna-Lo Venge’s hip-hop is a little different – one part alternative and one part contemporary with a little personal touch thrown in. He plays instruments, sings and raps on the song, and he shows off everything he’s got.

That’s followed by “Keep It Moving,” a pop song that encourages others to push through the hard things of life and take things one step at a time. It features another artist who, with Kna-Lo Venge, call themselves “The Connect.” Kna-Lo Venge sings on the song and plays guitar – with an intro guitar solo that will remind people of Prince in his early days.

“Girls tend to think guys don’t have feelings, but we do,” Kna-Lo Venge said. “It’s just that after we go through the feelings we just keep going on. Sometimes after a break-up I might think about you or dream about you, but I just keep it moving. I might want to kiss you or miss you, but I keep it moving. It’s not a love song. It’s a dance-able kind of pop tune that just talks about boy meeting girl, girl hurting boy’s feelings, and boy keeps moving and not looking back.”

The final song on the DVD performance is “Better Than Good,” which is another hip-hop song that features vocals from Angela Wangbush – a sample from the hook of her hit single “I’ll Be Good.” That collaboration is also indicative of the kind of reputation he has in the industry. He has worked with major artists over the years – including Prince – and continues to push the envelope as a radio DJ on the Artist’s First Network, and podcast host for “The Social Exchange with Jill Jones and Kna-Lo Venge,” where he talks about politics, his time with Prince, and songs that leave an impact on the world.

And at the end of the day, leaving an impact is his biggest goal as a musician. He wants to promote unity and world peace. He wants to have a Michael Jackson-sized global audience that brings together Asians and Russians and whites and blacks and Hispanics and lesbians and gay and straight – all spreading love and unity.

“I want my music to make people feel good,” he said. “When they think about my music I want it to make them smile. It’s not all happy music, of course, but it’s real music. It’s music that features real diversity – that’s why I do so many different styles, from EDM to rock to pop to hip-hop. I don’t want to be a throw-away artist. I have depth to my music. There are layers to me and in my music, and I try to express that with every song.”

Freako Bandeedo – Thought You Knew

Seattle Based Hip-Hop Artist Tells His Story in New Single “Thought You Knew”

SEATTLE, WA – The Pacific Northwest has been home to Freako Bandeedo, and he plans to make definite waves in the region. Originally from Texas, the artist spent a majority of his childhood being surrounded by music. His father played in a huge Mexican band, which mesmerized Freako. He was always some part of the mix, from going on tours alongside his father to dabbling into playing trumpet. This introduction into the industry paved the road to success ahead of Freako Bandeedo.

After moving to Atlanta, he found himself gravitating toward the city’s style of hip-hop music. He began listening to T.I. and 50 Cent, which played a big role in his transition into rap music. “Once I moved to the Pacific Northwest, I started making beats with my friends from school. The cool thing about coming from a background in Hispanic music is that once I learned how to make music my own, any other style wasn’t hard to pick up. The only thing that differentiates is the language,” said the artist. In the midst of figuring out his footing, he never let any hate or negativity get in the way of pursuing his true dreams.

Freako Bandeedo’s Soundcloud page consists of a full roster of his mixtape songs. He’s excited to soon release his first official professional song called “Thought You Knew”, which tells the story of him rising above certain people who initially doubted him. “It all started out as people not believing in me. I’ve been sticking to a story of who I am, where I am going and how I’m gonna get there. The song is very hype,” said Freako. All of his songs illicit the same positive reaction from his fans no matter what the style is.

Fans will want to look out for the upcoming release of “Thought You Knew”, as well as the music video. As Freako is always working toward his goals, he’s already working on his next project. He knows the quality of work that goes into making it big, and he’s not afraid to put those hours in. “If you have a dream, no matter what it is, if it makes you happy, then you should pursue it. Let the hate come, be strong with it, and don’t let it get to you. You want it, you will get it.”

CodeBoy Sai – Feel This

CODEBOY SAI INSPIRES LISTENERS TO LIVE BY THE C.O.D.E.

NEWARK, DE — CodeBoy Sai releases his “CODE LIFE” project to introduce listeners to the C.O.D.E. way of life. “CODE LIFE& paints a picture vividly of what millions of today’s youth navigate through every day. The struggle between enjoying life and handling their business, whether that’s working a job or going to school… CODE LIFE inspires people to accomplish their dreams and goals regardless of what others say. C.O.D.E. – Capable of Destroying Everything (that tries to stop you) – is the motto to live by, encouraging people to accomplish all of their dreams, regardless of the opposition.

“College-Party Life” based artist, Code Boy Sai, linked up with producer FAXONLY to create his first solo album released on all major streaming platforms. After working side-by-side with FAXONLY for six months, they released “CODE LIFE” on June 22. CodeBoy Sai strives on the CODE brand being a platform for teaching youth and the world to go for it, no matter what the dream is. By using his businesses, social media, and now music, he tries to motivate others through every outlet possible.

“As a kid growing up in a small state like Delaware, I had to have the CODE mentality all the time.” CodeBoy Sai stated. “From starting businesses at 14 years old to starting a national campaign to end the effects of absent fathers at the age of 15 (We Need Our Fathers), to now going after my dreams as an artist while pursuing my degree, I want to show the world and today’s youth that every dream is possible.”

CodeBoy Sai has released a video for one of the top tracks on “CODE LIFE,” called “Banjee.” He has also recently filmed a video for track No. 2, “Feel This,” and is preparing to release in time for the “Back to School” anthem for college students. “Feel This” is an anti-hater anthem letting haters know it is OK to like something someone else does.
