Musician Turned Entrepreneur Leonard “Nostra” Denis Establishes Foundation to Help Strengthen Reading Skills Among Young Children

0

The importance of proficient reading skills is undoubtedly not being emphasized enough among underprivileged families and communities in the United States. There are still too many Americans today who fall short of the standards pertaining to their recommended level of reading ability. According to the 2013 National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP) reading test results show that too many people continue to read below their grade level. A staggering 65% of all fourth graders in the country scored below proficient. It is for this reason that former musician turned entrepreneur Leonard “Nostra” Denis established the New Beginning Foundation mandated to help children read better. 

Unknown to many, 14% of the adult population in the United States cannot read, according to The National Children’s Book and Literacy Alliance. This means that there are at least 32 million American adults who still cannot read. Nostra’s New Beginning Foundation is a non-profit organization that intends to help young people out of poverty through the liberating power of literacy. It also aims to train the youth and empower them to meet life’s challenges head-on without fear of getting rejected or criticized. For the foundation, self-empowerment through literature is a very important survival tool. 

“We want to provide teens and young adults with skills that increase their verbal and math literacy and assist them in promoting their education through activities and experiences that help social, ethical, emotional, physical, and cognitive competencies. We believe that every child should be able to read and write so they can enjoy lifelong learning and empowerment,” Leonard explains. 

Leonard “Nostra” Denis sympathizes with the sad plight of many young Americans today who are not getting enough guidance, resources, and assistance they need in order to master a very basic skill that can change the life of people. Being able to read has always been attributed to those who are schooled, and it has been proven time and time again by reading scholars that reading plays a major role in helping a child develop to become the best version of himself. As a young parent of three beautiful children who are all readers, Leonard “Nostra” Denis started wondering about the real condition of numerous problematic readers from around the country, and the results can be overwhelming. 

Helping the community is not just a means to an end for Leonard “Nostra” Denis; it is his way of giving back, sharing one’s blessings, and being generous to those who need it the most. Additionally, he believes that paying it forward will go a long way for those who cannot even afford to buy reading materials that the children can practice on in the house. For him, helping young Black children is his way of making them see the value of education, how far a good education can take a person and the many benefits of being a good reader.

Leonard “Nostra” Denis has a podcast called Community Xchange, a platform where the entrepreneur interviews individuals who can shed light on so many issues involving the Black community today. Through the podcast, he hopes to encourage people to be kinder to one another regardless of the color of one’s skin.

Music can evoke a wide array of emotions in both the musician and the listener, making it such a powerful form of self-expression. The persistence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the chaotic state of current affairs can easily extinguish the last embers of hope, if not for the persevering nature of humanity. At these times, the people need positivity and uplifting content in the media, which is exactly what nine-year-old Australian singer and actor Charlie Whitley is bringing to the public.

Charlie Whitley grew up in the spotlight. The first acting and singing projects he took on were when he was only five years old. In the four years that he had been professionally performing, he has built a considerable portfolio with projects from Los Angeles to Sydney, Australia.

This young talent has starred alongside Lupita Nyong’o and Josh Gad in Little Monsters, a 2019 film about a kindergarten teacher and her class stuck in the middle of a sudden zombie outbreak. He has also appeared in commercial ads for NRMA, Holden, Big W, Freedom Furniture, and Amazon USA. He co-hosted the Nickelodeon Industry Awards in 2014, performed as a lead singer at Universal Hilton Showcase in Hollywood, CA, and TCE Showcase, and even ventured into stand up comedy as the opening act of Laughing Matters 2018, which happened in Los Angeles, California.

His debut solo release is titled Girl Behind the Show and was released in September 2020, and despite getting a late start this year, he is determined to make this fourth quarter productive. The singer is already working on the second and third releases, ‘Tis the Season and Took the Words, which will be released in December and January, respectively.

LA-Based Sig Official Showcases the Sound of Haiti

0

What would it sound like to listen to the sounds of a nation, the vibrations of its people – a heartbeat of music? Sig Official shines a light on the country of Haiti and the people that live there, masterfully weaving a euphoric melody for everyone to be at home within her music. She has innovated a safe space for her culture to be heard. Her music speaks to reforms, love, and pride of a culture and its music; it speaks of unadulterated truth and identity: hope for people to know that they are heard, and that it is okay to be different.

Sigourney “Sig Official” Sterling is a Los Angeles-based independent artist who was born in Port au Prince, Haiti. Growing up on the East Coast, Sig found herself in the middle of Los Angeles, where she started producing for local artists while attending college at the Arts Institute. It was somewhere during this period that she would discover her true calling in front of a microphone. She found her voice and her confidence then she made her way over to the West Coast and began recording over Afrocentric tunes. 

Sig’s style of music draws from Afro beat culture, Haitian Kompa and Zouk. She successfully mixed distinct genres of music while shining a light on diverse sounds in hip-hop culture. Her self-produced single, “Kreyol,” has been tremendous in its effect on the local community as well as her community back home in Haiti.

The soul base of music with Afro/Kompa beats are remarkably underrepresented in media. Sig feels a passion to provide listeners with a melody they can relate to, and a sound that they can come to love, not just for her native Haiti but for people from different ethnicities. Deviating somewhat from mainstream genres, she attempts to touch base with different cultures to attract those listeners who are in search of something different or who may be overlooked themselves. Her latest track “Pause” has surpassed expectations and more of the same is expected in the coming years.

After working hard to build a foundation, Sig Official aspires to reach a worldwide audience and maybe reserve a special place in their hearts for a little island called Haiti. She wants to be a reference for a new sound, bringing a diversified music taste into social circles while inspiring others to try new things, face their fears, and own their identity and find their place in the world.

“I am a lesbian, Haitian-LA based artist, and the LBGTQ+ community is very important to me; being from a third world county where who I am is still being frowned upon.”

Sig Official ultimately wants to be a figure people can relate to and feel represented by, for her listeners to feel heard while having fun. Sig shares, “Not everyone can speak out about the experiences they face nor get the recognition they deserve. I want my music to give them that. And to leave a memorable legacy to the people of Haiti that will motivate any up-and-coming artist or youth in the area to embrace the culture.”

To learn more about Sig Official you can visit her website or look her up on Instagram. You can also stream her music on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube.

Rising Singer and Songwriter Chris Mar Turns Life Around Through Music

0

Music is an instrumental catalyst in the life of Chicago-born and raised rising singer, Chris Mar, helping him navigate through his life’s greatest challenges from running with the wrong crowd to using drugs and almost getting arrested for a DUI offense. What should have been a dark and dangerous path was transformed into something meaningful as he focused on his music and providing a good life to his son, who looks up to him in every way. 

The Mexican-American singer and songwriter recently released a music video on YouTube titled Chris Mar-Bella, and is fast becoming a crowd favorite among fans of Spanish songs. Seven months ago, the 29-year-old singer also released his single titled Letter for You featuring Hannah Bielicki. He has written other promising singles that include Te Quiero Ver and La Primera, Spanish songs that have attracted fans from the Latin community to his distinct brand of music. 

Chris Mar has been recording songs since the young age of 15. When he was just starting out, he recorded songs at Sonic Palace Studios under the mentorship of his sound engineer, SoundGuyMike. While he mostly writes Spanish songs to connect with the Latin community, he is now working on coming up with English songs to cater to a wider audience. More so, he wants to set a good example for his son, teach him to see things from a better perspective, and leave him with something that he can truly be proud of years from now. 

“I wanted to create a legacy and start doing what I love to do. Making music calms me down and keeps me busy. It has helped me stay out of trouble and stay on the right path. I just love the feeling of creating something new. I enjoy writing and composing my songs. It’s the love that I have for it and the drive that makes me do more and more. I was working at my job and was working 10 hour shifts. It was the same routine over and over. I didn’t feel right and I felt like I needed to do something with myself. That’s when it hit me, I needed to focus on my music and show it to the world,” Chris Mar reveals.

The pandemic also had drastic effects on his songwriting and recording as the studio where he often records his songs were forced to close down for a couple of months. Determined to stay productive even during a very challenging season, he started connecting with other artists using the app Fiverr. As it turns out, Chris Mar was able to come up with exciting new beats in preparation for when the studio reopens. Finally, he is now back to recording these songs and is currently working on two music videos. 

Chris is especially drawn to the experience of creating something new, something that has the potential of impacting the lives of other people. Staying in a full-time job did pay the bills, but it did not bring life to his spirit the way music does. For Chris Mar, professionalism is very important in order to make it in the industry, and it is for this reason that he maintains cordial relationships with people from the industry, conducts himself appropriately when meeting people for the first time, and works hard to get things done at all cost. 

He looks forward to one day connecting with the right people who can help him take his music career to the next level. For Chris Mar, it is only a matter of time before the right record label takes notice of his rare talent and signs him up for an even exciting musical journey.

How Tyrone Evans Clark Went From Homeless to CEO and Multi-Awarded Brand in Entertainment

0

There are two kinds of people who find success in the world: those who inherit from their families and those who grind to reach the top. Tyrone Evans Clark is a multi-award winning American entertainer, writer, and director who falls under the latter.

Although life at home was more than just complicated, Tyrone Clark did the impossible and graduated from Benton Harbor High School a year later. Even more impressive is the fact that he graduated with honors and several scholarships from PUSH Excel, Horatio Alger Association, Rosa Parks Foundation, Burger King, and Gates Millennium, to name a few. Ultimately, Tyrone chose to study at The Art Institute of California in Los Angeles, earning a Bachelor of Science, Game Art, & Design.

Eventually, Tyrone decided to create his own company called TYRONE EVANS CLARK Incorporation or TEC Inc. He created TEC to be a technical, interactive media, and entertainment company. TEC focused on going beyond the box with technology, specializing in virtual reality, augmented reality, mixed reality, computer-generated reality, artificial intelligence, and so much more. 

During that time, Tyrone would also take a bigger interest in entertainment. By 2018, he would start pursuing a career in movies and television. Initially, the entrepreneur’s passion began in high school when he was forced to make a film for a class, but Tyrone decided to get into technology. Tyrone had already made an appearance on television as he appeared on Kevin Trudeau’s Investigating Free Money when he talked about his life story. Years later, Tyrone would appear in small/major roles in Award-Winning television series, short films, and feature films.

By 2019, he created his own series titled Homeless Sam & Sally, taking the role of Sam Silver. The story revolved around a homeless mother and son, played by Tyrone himself, as they cope with their current situation by daydreaming, being silly, and doing random things. Tyrone based his story on his personal experience. He would make a movie based on the series a year later. Tyrone wrote, directed, produced, and acted in the series and film. He also added to its soundtrack (Courtesy of Tyrone Evans Clark Inc.). 

Around the same year Tyrone came out with a few popular songs (singles) titled “‎Inside of Me!”, “Video Game”, “Look Me in My Eyes”, “Hope”, and later “Gotta Get Some Tissue! ” in 2020. Tyrone was inspired by some of the greatest artists out there such as Prince, Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, David Bowie, Little Richard, Lenny Kravitz, James DeBarge, Tina Turner , etc.

When Tyrone wrote the song “Inside of Me!” he thought about how it is so easy to allow other people inside of our lives physically, emotionally, and spiritually while simultaneously having sex with them. Prince, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, and Little Richard at the time were called sex-benders because they had the ability to come across on stage as feminine or masculine and get away with it. They all had an energy about them that made people want to get on their knees and praise them like gods. Tyrone told us that he got the sex appeal from Lenny Kravitz, Tina Turner, and Janet Jackson. They were not afraid to be sexy and talk about sex.

Some people even told him in person that he looks like Lenny Kravitz and sometimes even a Jackson. Low-key, Tyrone even enjoys listening to Vanessa Williams and Toni Braxton sometimes just to clear his head at the beginning of each day.

“Inside of Me” (Tyrone’s first single), just like all the rest of his songs, is meant for fun times and just for shaking your booty on the dance floor with someone you can possibly take home or even maybe show them off to your mama.

When he is not busy running his company or working in the entertainment industry, Tyrone Evans Clark spends his free time writing and making music. His songs are already up on streaming services like Apple Music/iTunes, Spotify, and Amazon Music. Tyrone E. Clark hopes to become a more recognizable name in entertainment, music, technology, and the gaming field, having already won multiple awards.

Rising hip-hop star Que Rasheed is making waves in the local Georgia music scene and beyond with the release of his first musical single “Under Pressure.” The track is starting to gain momentum as it dominates radio waves and online channels across various demographics. 

Quran Rasheed Salaam, also known by his stage name Que Rasheed, is an artist who hails from Gainesville, Georgia. Born on October 16, 1997, the artist was born into a musically inclined family. His parents were both singers in a traveling choir and would bring Que and his siblings to every show. At the age of eight, the musician and performer started getting into music himself, inspired by his parent’s passion and dedication to the craft. “They made me want to work on my singing,” shares Que. For a season, he also played the Trombone, which helped him develop his musicality. 

Growing up, Que would start picking up other musical influences. He fell in love with hip-hop and started listening to artists like Andre 3000, Big Boi, Eminem, Nas, and B.O.B. That exposure would drive his passion for rapping and form his sound. Today, he carries his early influences in his music. What makes Que’s music unique is how closely knit his story is to every song he writes and plays. “The music I make is based on my life, love, trauma, and fears,” explains Que. “I won’t lie in my art for views. What you hear in a song from me is who I am.” Que Rasheed’s music is honest and open, never holding back on what true feelings surface from specific experiences. 

The artist’s latest track, “Under Pressure,” is a testament to the up-and-coming rap sensation’s authenticity and genius. He released the song on Apple Music on November 12, 2020. Today, the EP single continues to make rounds on other platforms and shows. 

Working with Que Rasheed on the track is the platinum producer and Grammy-nominated artist K.E. On The Track, who has worked with other music bigs like Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, DJ Khaled, Chris Brown, Nicki Minaj, Flo-rida, Lecrae, and Fetty Wap, to name a few. Working with the legendary producer has been instrumental to the rise of hip-hop artist Que Rasheed. Apart from his music, Que also busies himself with his entrepreneurial ventures. In recent times, the artist started a clothing line of his own named Title Page.

When writing material, Que Rasheed makes it a point to be conscious about his lyrics, ensuring that his tracks contain both substance and style. To the rapper, music isn’t about catchy beats alone. It’s also about sending a message that adds value to the listener. Que shares how his respect for the craft obliges him to bring that level of excellence in his songs. 

Que guarantees that “Under Pressure” is just the beginning. Currently, the artist is brewing more songs that the hip-hop community across Georgia, Atlanta, and all across the nation and the world will appreciate. The artist also looks to collaborate with more producers in the coming days.
