a BOLD decision

With all the passion and soul Melody Angel has earned a legion of fans across the globe. From her stint on the hit MTV show P Diddy’s Starmaker to her Youtube videos. This is an artist you don’t want to miss. Melody Angel grew up on the South Side of Chicago &  is also an advocate for the youth. Working with the disadvantaged youth is high priority and is a message she has included in her music. - http://www.melodyangelmusic.com/ 

Melody has a vocal range that is reminiscent of Toni Braxton to me. I don’t listen to much Toni Braxton nowadays, but I will definitely bump some Melody Angel. If you are feeling #BOLD I suggest you give her a listen.  Check out some of her music below.

S/o to X for sending this my way.

I am committed to spreading the word on any new Sammie music I happen to come across because it bothers me how underrated he is. With that being said Sammie just released this cover to Strip by Chris Brown & Kevin McCall. I pretty much love anything Sammie puts out so I of course feel the same about this cover. His voice makes me a happier person I promise lol.

First and foremost shout out to @maebo to putting me on to this #BOLD emcee.

“Nitty Scott, MC. She is one of the few females creating her own lane in progressive hip-hop, a new school fly girl who isn’t afraid to get down with the cypher. “Born in Michigan, made in Florida, paid in New York,” Nitty Scott, MC is currently launching an independent music movement known as “The Boombox Family”, which focuses on organic, lyrical, message-driven hip-hop.” -http://nittyscottmc.com/ .You may have remembered Nitty Scott, MC. from the this years BET Awards cypher, but if you are like me and didn’t get a chance to watch the awards this year then the videos and latest mixtape below would be a good starting point.  I like Nitty’s style, her flow and delivery reminds me a lot of Queen Latifah and Mc Lyte. It’s pretty cool to see someone in our genration embodying the essence of female rap pioneers in such a dope way. She also reps Brooklyn and I can’t be mad at that, loving the artwork too!

Kano is a #BOLD rapper/actor out of East London who I started rocking with during my time there. I first was introduced to him watching this dope series that I absolutely fell in love with called “Top Boy” in which he co starred in. Look out for a #BOLDspotlight post coming soon on each of the artists featured on this track because they are all doing their thing in the UK right now. Mikey J is a producer that I must highlight in the near future because this beat is sick! In the mean time check them out in “E.T” directed by Kalvador Peterson and Patrick Odur and produced by Versetti for SoulCulture Media. 

I cant get enough of this show! Season 2 is going to be epic. 

Check out the teasers below:

E. Miles is most notably known as a songwriter for Songbook Entertainment. If you love the messages in Trey Songz “Be Where You Are,” “Love Lost”, “Black Roses”, “Love Faces”, and “Bottoms Up” then checking him out is a good idea seeing as he wrote on these hit songs. E. Miles sent me these tracks and I’m definitely feeling “Good Luck” and “Me”. #beBOLD and check out some of his music.

S/o to @Lil_liteskin for sending this #BOLDmixtape my way. If you have never heard of Bridget Kelly..well it’s time to get acquainted. Bridget is signed to Jay Z’s label Roc Nation. She has performed at Coachella with Jay-Z during Empire State of Mind, as well as Bonnaroo Music Festival in summer 2010. Kelly also performed Empire State of Mind with Jay-Z on Saturday Night Live and has routinely filled in for Alicia Keys. “Every Girl” is a solid R&B mixtape and it I know its lyrical content will appeal to my #BOLD females. Check it out and let me know what you think. I love her voice!

#BOLDtracks: “Seek & Destroy” , “Every Girl” “Thinking About Forever”, “In the Morning”<—tooBOLD “Love You After All”

Elle Varner has a unique sound so it was only right that I highlight her latest mixtape. “Conversational Lush” is a #BOLDmixtape, she can easily be compared to the likes of Jill Scott or Chrisette Michele, but she appeals to the young adult generation which is what I think makes it a #BOLD project.  I definitely felt her soulful influences and she incorporates a hip retro touch that is refreshing.The production is versatile throughout the project, “32 Flavors” sounds like a dope rock beat.  This mixtape is worth a listen if you feel like being on your “embracing my inner beauty flow” so #bebOLD and check it out. (I love those shoes!)

I had to highlight one of my favorite favorite tracks off of Red Cafe’s latest Mixtape “Hells Kitchen”. The beat goes hard it has a southern touch to it to me.  S/o to the artists that let Trey Songz explore his hip hop side on their track #BOLDmoves.

Dev is a #BOLD favorite of mine. I thought of @maebo when this played on my iTunes recently and had to post it.
