Will Sheridan's single "Blind" from the newly released 18 track CD "Going In And Never Timid (G.I.A.N.T.), is a unique and refreshing fusion of new wave hip hop, pop, and techno. Sheridan made noise last year when he came out on live television which lead to his selection for an MTV panel on gay rights with the likes of Lt. Dan Choi and author Keith Boykin. "Blind" is a track that he obviously went into with his eyes wide open, bringing a freshness, funkiness, and originality to the song, which has an up tempo beat, and is perfect for cruising, the clubs, or just kicking back and relaxing. With a distinctive East coast style sound and synth horns doubling the bass line, there's a lot going on in this track. The alternate section has synth strings, with an almost classic bass line leading back to the hook. The ending breaks down to a capella with Sheridan's own background vocals. This is a very cool track, and one that music lovers of any genre can appreciate.

Feel Stronger - Scar'D For Life
J.Scar a.k.a Jean Lodescar, Jr. is an up and coming artist with a message. Born in Brooklyn to Haitian parents and raised in Queens, J.Scar has always used lyrics to tell stories, expose truths, and, most importantly, inspire anyone who will listen. Losing a cousin to the streets at an early age sparked his parent’s desire for a better life for Jean, and strengthened their determination to keep him off the streets. Jean’s parents kept him close to home at all times and insisted he set an example for his two younger sisters and watch over them at all times. Jean went on to study at Queensborough Community College and then went on to St. John’s University.
Although his talent for the microphone began at a young age, he at first only pursued it as a hobby for friends and family, while tirelessly attempting every job out there, from fireman to engineer to Apple’s Genius Bar. Along with his passion for music, J.Scar has extensive experience in acting and writing, and has incorporated this into his music by making music videos that bring his songs to life. The story lines along with the hip hop flow are connecting with internet audiences and spreading like wildfire.
J.Scar’s video for “Feel Stronger” was featured in a piece on Trayvon Martin in the NY Daily News. His previous video “Underpaid” was featured on Channel 11 (WPIX ) Morning News, and NY Daily News in January.
“I wrote Feel Stronger for the people who are battling with certain situations that would make them want to give up in life...certain situations that intimidate them in life...certain situations where they feel like there is no hope... As a father to a beautiful son, Trayvon Martin's sad incident hit me hard...Unfortunately situations like Trayvon's happen in life and they are unfair, unjust, and extremely somber and difficult to deal with..I am still having a hard time explaining it to my son who's curiosity is at a natural point at his 4 years of age. As an artist, I feel I have a responsibility for speak to and for the people..So I've tweaked Feel Stronger a bit and dedicated it to Trayvon Martin, his family and to anyone else who is at that breaking point.”

Traum Releases Mad Dreamz It's Only A Nightmare
This is the long awaited release from Far Rockaway, Queens rapper Traum titled "Mad Dreamz it's only a nightmare" due out May 2012 on Masta Mix Records Featuring Cormaga, Big Noyd, Lil Fame of M.O.P. and many more. It also includes production by Traum, Ayatollah and Ric Rude. This full length CD is the follow up to the 2009 EP. This one is full of Queens bangers as well as many radio friendly joints like Back That Ass Up and What What.
Credibility is crucial in any industry but when it comes to a music scene where "real recognize real" is the overriding mantra, New York native Traum walks it like he talks it.
Bloodlines in Hip Hop's crowded family tree can be hard to explain but Traum's pedigree is nothing short of thoroughbred: born in the Bronx, the birthplace of the genre and then raised in Queens, Traum was practically destined for his current role as one of the east coast's hottest artists and most innovative independent label bosses.
Since being recognized as one of Hip Hop's up-and-coming MC's Traum, under the umbrella of his own label Masta Mix Records, feels the time is right for the flava that Traum is spitting, the New York edge, the rawness, and ghetto-fabulous essence of Hip Hop are all here collated under the expert guidance of one of the scene's most trusted mentors.

Producers Gather Huge Following Online With Hip Hop Beats, Giving Away Thousands Of Dollars In Promotion And Airplay To Independent Hip Hop Artists
Hip Hop Beats Online, a online production site with a huge following, is giving away four free beats and a chance to win over $1,000 in free radio airplay, and promotion (Twitter, Facebook, and Youtube).
Hip Hop Beats Online is team of producers,that have gathered a huge profile on the internet, and offers hip hop beats and other instrumental tracks for new and upcoming hip hop artists and the overall independent scene to use for putting together mix-tapes, singles, games, movies, films, and albums. The new company allows individuals to sign up for an account and then download hip hop beats and available tracks for use in album or productions. The site contains a large number of track choices.
Hip Hop Beats Online is a new online production company focused on leasing hip hop beats to independent music artists. The idea originated from seeing the hip hop artist community not have access to high quality hip hop beats like Industry artists. Hip Hop Beats Online also helps to promote the Independent music community, and believe that up and coming aspiring hip hop artists should have the same opportunities as major artists.
“We gathered a huge fan base online by giving away so much quality content, a hip hop artist would be crazy not to sign up and get all this free content. We online producers work harder than industry producers for a huge fraction of the price. There is no way a upcoming artist with a small budget could afford an industry producers time, hip hop beats, or music. “That is where we come in, I personally connect with artists” states one of Hip Hop Beats Online’s producers Makaih, “I want to see them succeed with their music.
According to producer, Mr. Flamez, “ People can make a huge come up in this industry by leasing hip hop beats. You lease a hip hop beat for a low price, and you can sell a crazy amount of derivative tracks with online promotion. Just don’t forget to credit the producers. Leasing is one of the BEST things to happen to hip hop artists.”
