These artists, who lead the hip-hop generation, have two things in common: a desire to keep hip-hop alive by providing a…See More

Startling stats continue to roll in on the quickly-declining CD. The latest, unearthed by Hits Magazine, is that the first quarter was completely devoid of a platinum release. That is, no album specifically released during the first quarter has scored sales of one million, specifically in the United States. Additionally, only 39 releases scored first week sales north of 25,000.
On a broader level, year-over-year album sales are sharply down again, in the mid-teens percentages. Of… Continue

- Hey Jonathan, thank you for this site. It's a wonderful avenue for those in the Music Industry. I recently heard from Suze Orman (financial analyst and the Suze Orman Show). She said that she thought my Oprah song was great and she posted it on her twitter page. I also heard from Muhammad Ali, Jr. He loved my "The Time Is Now" video which has his dad in it. Internet and the Social Networks are a great way to spread the love of music and entertainment. Thank you for all that you do. Blessings. Midge
