One of My Favorite Songs of All Time

2009-12-07T12:02:00.000-08:00

There's a brand new song circulating by E.Que Soul worth mentioning. This song could very easily go down in history. It's called "OUR LITTLE GIRLS". It's an urban pop song with a lot of soul. The song is a shout out to all the daughters of the world. If you're a daughter, or have a daughter, or ever wanted a daughter, you will absolutely love this song! I do and I just wanted to share it with you. Check it out at www.myspace.com/equehits

peace.

I just got wind of a fabulous and innovative young fashion designer from Miami. She is only sixteen and she is absolutely remarkable. I was fortunate enough to attend a pre-viewing of her upcoming line. All I can say is WOW!!! Keep your eyes open for this girl...you'll be hearing a lot about her in the very near future. The official launch date is still unset, but it will be soo worth the wait.

IT'S BIGGER THAN HIP HOP

2009-08-29T22:58:00.000-07:00

If you need a press release to expose the world to your craft, let me know and we'll chop it up. If you're a music artist of any genre, model, fashion designer, or have a media worthy talent, the world should KNOW about you. First, let me know who you are.

ARTIST of the WEEK !!

2009-05-15T14:03:00.000-07:00

I have been coming across so much talent that have not gotten the recognition they deserve out there. So, Ive decided to feature one artist every Friday as my Artist of the Week. I'm proud to announce the first Artist of the Week is E.QUE a.k.a. ILL Switch out of Chicago. The guy is a legend in the making. He's a rapper and singer and one of the most versatile artists I've seen. He bangs the hits out constantly and is like magic on the mic. I've seen him drive his crowds bananas and always leaves them wanting more. I'm trying to catch up with him for an interview and I'll post it up just as soon as I get it. One of his songs is also featured on my myspace page as my profile song. Check ya boy at www.myspace.com/equehits

Stay tuned to see who will take his spot next Friday.

MIXTAPE MADNESS

2009-05-02T06:09:00.000-07:00

I know there's mad mixtapes floating around every bootlegger's spot and mom and pop stores all over the Chi. Well, this summer I plan to release the HOTTEST summer mixtape to ever hit the streets by select unsigned artists. It will not only hit the streets in the Chi, but I have street teams in place cross country to infect the streets quicker than this swine flu shit!! ( Did Jay-Z really say Chris Brown started spreading the swine flu?? Actually, he just laughed about it when a reporter mentioned it! LMAO!! ) If you think you got what it takes, hit me up. I'm getting a lot of requests to get on this mixtape, but I'm very selective!! Only the best...

Calling ChiTown's FINEST !!

2009-04-29T23:24:00.000-07:00

I've already found some rappers that peak my interest. I got my eyes on YOU!! You already know who you are. I wanna find those hidden ChiTown treasures. Ladies, get at me too. Whether you model, sing, and/or rap, I wanna know. We're laying down the groundwork for one of the hottest showcases to ever hit the CHI !!

Chicago Hip Hop

2009-04-29T06:52:00.000-07:00

I was just wondering. Are there any HOT ChiTown rappers out there? Not to be funny or nothing, but I'm looking for artists that are entertaining. I don't want a choreographer and I don't want to be depressed to death either. If you' re hot, I wanna know!!

I'm planning an event that showcases hot, unsigned talent in Chicagoland. I'm not really messing with the autotuners either. SORRY!! That just cut out a few of yall. There are no dates yet. Let me know who you are and I'll check you out.

TOGETHER WE CAN SAVE HIP HOP!!

SAVE HIP HOP!!

2009-04-29T05:07:00.000-07:00

Can somebody explain to me what's happened to hip hop music? I used to be a little concerned about the state of hip hop when I started hearing all this "choreography" rap, but now I'm just losin' my fuckin' mind. Between the radio and BET's 106 & Park (Shoutout to Terrance), the shit is everywhere!! Hip hop used to have substance and depth. Some of it still does, you just don't hear it. Well, I'm starting an in-depth search for REAL hip hop. I don't care where it comes from (east, west, midwest, dirty south, who cares??). I just want to find modern hip hop artists that stay true to the ART of hip hop. I want to be able to listen to lyrics AND dance at the same time. Join the Save Hip Hop movement!!
