The Streets Are Talking…

Word of mouth can serve as a powerful tool when the word is good. Especially when the experience coincides with the expectation. Earlier in the year a friend told me about an emerging artist by the name of Uni-G, and recommended that I reach out to him in regards to a feature on Bump My Music. … Continue reading The Streets Are Talking…

Heat Wave In The Forecast

The term “fire music” is overly exaggerated in the music culture. With every video on social media containing the flame emoji, it’s hard to take someone’s word for what’s considered to be “good” music. Of course, the term is subjective, but when someone’s music actually makes your phone overheat (this is no exaggeration!)….they’re certainly worth … Continue reading Heat Wave In The Forecast

You Have Been Cordially Invited….

Bow ties, suits, dresses, and gowns, The Timeless Gala has been the talk of the town. Not to be mistaken for The Met Gala, where the ticket prices exceed middle-class earnings in some places, and the waiting list is longer than...?...well, you get the point. The Timeless Gala was a budget-friendly occasion that didn’t break the … Continue reading You Have Been Cordially Invited….

This past Halloween,  the city that never sleeps was certainly wide awake as thunderous vibes accompanied by loud sirens poured out of SOB's in lower … Continue reading Halloween 2017….

Am I My Brother’s Keeper?

This should come as no surprise, but it is incredibly difficult to gain the support you need to flourish as an independent, or emerging artist. Some would say, that in order to make it big, you have to leave what you know and explore the unknown.  While there's truth to the saying, that wasn't the case for Brillo. One … Continue reading Am I My Brother’s Keeper?

Shots Fired…..

Have you ever had one of those nights where you felt like your life could be made into a movie? Well, it happens....and it just so happens, that it happened.  On September 30, 2017, to be precise. The location of said happening, Quad Recording Studios in New York City. Name sound familiar?! It may, or … Continue reading Shots Fired…..

Doctor’s Order…

After attending a few local performances, I decided to do some writing. Per my usual, I prepared my space with my headphones, along with a dope playlist, my pen, and the master plan. Within the first few pen strokes, chilling needles riddled my hands. They became clammy, and oddly enough, I felt dizzy. Chalking it … Continue reading Doctor’s Order…

Going The Distance….

Becoming a recognized artist with a substantial following can be quite difficult these days, considering the stigma that's attached to the over-saturated  Hip-Hop market. And with  Microwavable Music clogging the air waves, the art of music has become overshadowed by the grossly manufactured,  regurgitated, low budget replicas . Harsh? Not at all! One of the … Continue reading Going The Distance….
