Meet FlyhighMarty
What’s your name and where are you from? My legal name is Kris, my moniker is FlyHighMarty my name came from a friend of mine who is no longer with us, taken from us by the police. I want his name to live with me, that he is never forgotten. I’m from the Windy City, Born in Chicago University Hospital, originally a north sider but we moved down south when I was five. After that I kind of moved around a lot stayed in a couple other cities and states. I’ve lived in Vegas, I’ve been to Texas, but my soul is still in Chicago no matter how far I move. Why do you love what you do? The rhythm of music speaks to me, I feel like I have a spirit and it becomes more in tune and focused when making or listening to music. No matter how many times I attempted to look away I keep coming back to music, each time I would take a break, someone is asking for a beat or even made a song to one of my beats. I promised myself that I wouldn’t look back no matter how hard the fight gets. I want to wake up and do what I love for a living. What makes you different? Probably because of what I said before, I feel like it’s part of me, it’s been calling out to me for years. I’ve been through so many computers, so much money spent, it would be foolish to stop. I’m a weirdo in my own right, but I’m also the coolest person you’ll know. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Hope that I would be in a position where I can give back to my community, help out those who don’t have that chance, I want to have my own music group. Help develop the next generation of music, branch out to other ideas, and truly make art. What do you want to accomplish in life? I want to create generational wealth, I want to make a difference, not sure where exactly, but I try to make a difference as much as I can. I’ve experienced and been through so much, I need the world to feel it, pass down my knowledge to those after me, keep our names alive, create history. What do you bring to your industry? Insight, knowledge, innovation, someone who they haven’t seen before. I want to create for the future. I want to be involved in as many things as I can, learn as much as I can, so that I may help those around me. Whoever I’m with, what ever organization I’m with, if it’s mine or someone else’s, I’m going to give it my all, I already have insomnia, so I need more to do. What do you want to be remembered by? most importantly my family, those who’ve I’ve come across and changed for the better. I want to be remembered as a leader. I’ve seen a lot and done a lot, my days in the military affected me and my future, I have not given up my dream despite what I’ve been through. I’m only a producer so I don’t want all the glory, I want to have some of the coldest songs in memory, I want my grandkids to say my music is trash only because they listen to different music in their generation, at least my songs are out there, the artists I work with will have something to always looks back on. I want to achieve and do much more.

Meet J-Brook
What’s your name and where are you from? My Name Is J-Brook I’m from Upstate NY (518) (G-Ville) Second home (Rutland) VT. If you know you know. Why do you love what you do? I love to make MUSIC!! I feel like everyone got a story to tell as BIG said! Music has always been my best way to communicate! I’m pretty sure everyone has a love for music on some level, I mean what else takes you back to points in your life that are memorable with the simple push of a button. I could put my playlist on shuffle and every song will put me in a time machine to travel back to a certain time in my life. Of course, there are many genres but I believe we all have a love for music. What makes you different? I think what makes me different from most people is my thought process, one of the main things I keep in the back of my mind is that nobody in this world owes me anything. After more than 11 years in federal prison, I’m back with unfinished business as it pertains to my music career. My old head used to tell me you miss every shot you don’t take! Shoot ya shot he used to always tell me. So that’s what I’m gonna do. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Well first and foremost you gotta go out and get it, success doesn’t come knocking at ya door looking for you. I know a lot of times we can get comfortable and complacent and just accept what we have going on currently in our lives but let’s be honest we all want more. I gotta keep on keeping on and God willing in 5 years I’ll be in a room full of millionaires with lots of opportunities! What would you like to accomplish in life? I would like to make a living off of my passion which is music, and also be a successful entrepreneur so I could leave behind the blueprint for my two daughters and because I like to be the BOSS. Well….that’s what the feds said lol! What do you bring to the industry? I bring myself, authentic, genuine, and official! R.R.R. Real Recognize Real. I think I bring a whole different dimension to the music industry as far as my style and the fact that I’m a white artist rapping the way I do. I tell people all the time I got 3 different state of minds..the one before my incarceration, the one during, and the one I’ve developed since I came home. All blended together and used at different times. So when I’m rapping to you just know it doesn’t have to be something going on at this very moment. All facts no cap you heard, google me I’m public information. What do you want to be remembered for? When it’s all said and done I want to be remembered for being that dude who gave it his all! Led by example, showed his daughters that you can bounce back from anything life throws at you. The man who chased his dreams took care of his Family! The one who did many things but found that balance in doing so. I believe life is all about balance, I think it’s extremely important to find it in anything you choose to do! Also, I like to laugh. I like to make people around me do the same. So I also wanna be remembered for being that person who made people smile. Forever Grateful! Remain Humble! Never Settle!!

Meet 2 Tawl
What is your name and where are you from? My stage name is 2 Tawl, and it carries a special meaning for me. It means that you have to be willing to lose sometimes in order to win and thrive, and that losing helps us to push ourselves to achieve the goals we really want. For me, this goal is to become a popular rapper, and I have been putting in hard work for many years now to get closer to it. I am from Charlotte NC, or better known as the Queen City, which was founded by European settlers and named after King George III's wife-Queen Charlotte. Of African origin, it is the largest city in North Carolina, home to the Carolina Panthers, and the Charlotte Hornets owned by sports legend Michael Jordan.

Meet GTM YoungRocky
What’s your name and where are you from? My Name Rassi Collins. My stage name is GTM YoungRocky. I’m from Laplace,Louisiana. Why do you love what you do? I love to rap because when I rap I can be raw, honest and relative. When I’m rapping I may dip into the shallow end of the music pool every now and then, as all genres can, but music is a gift I decided to share with the world. Rappers are no different then book writers, we are telling our story through music.
