J.DOBBS is also a DIY indie artist in the truest sense of the term.

Lively and inspiring, “I'll Go” is the latest reason to consider Rhea Francani as New York’s best country music export in recent memory.

Rhea Francani says her artistic influences include Maren Morris, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston and Boyz II Men.

With an emphasis on clarion singing, subtle accompaniment and heartfelt performances by Francani and her instrumentalists, “I'll Go” by Rhea Francani has something for every fan of contemporary country music.

Similar to Kelsea Ballerini and Carly Pearce, Rhea’s cosmopolitan sound blurs the lines between country and pop. Her bold energy has been compared to Carrie Underwood and Chris Stapleton. Her soulful spirit is reminiscent of classic hits from Lady A and Little Big Town.

“I composed this song to reflect the deep commitment of someone in love. When it’s genuine, you’ll follow that person to any place and through anything,” Rhea Francani said.  “Most importantly, choose love – again and again.”

Recorded at OmniSound Studios, the album features singles “Is This Love,” “Shotgun Baby” and “Dizzy,” which reached #11 on the global HotDisc chart and received circulation on All Access Nashville radio services, as well as international acclaim.

“I'm excited to share my new music while encouraging students to follow their own creative dreams! In fact, my students chose this song to be the first single released in this new chapter.”

Rhea Francani has performed at sold-out events including the WYRK Acoustic Show featuring Maren Morris, Chris Janson and Big & Rich; enjoyed tremendous television coverage; played live on numerous radio stations; and produced her own music showcases in prominent country music venues.

Louis-Gabriel Pothier releases new EP album 'Leitmotiv'




The songwriter and producer of instrumental piano known as Louis-Gabriel Pothier has released his latest official EP album, “Leitmotiv.” The EP album contains four original Louis-Gabriel Pothier tracks for an approximate total listening time of 15 mins. It has been proudly published as an independent release without the involvement of the corporate music industry. Evocative, narrative, and painting with sonic texture more pronounced than most film scores, “Leitmotiv” showcases Louis-Gabriel Pothier as one of the most intriguing instrumental piano artists of the year so far and promises that he has plenty more where that came from.

Quebec's Louis-Gabriel Pothier cites as main artistic influences Erik Satie, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Philip Glass, AndrĂ© Gagnon, Yann Tiersen, Ennio Morricone, Philippe Sarde, Francis Lai, and Stelvio Cipriani. Pothier's own sound takes elements from each of these and adds his own play-by-ear style – Pothier does not read or write music – for an uncommon result likely to enthuse all fans of piano. With an emphasis on intuitive melody lines, carefully plotted composition, and (yes) a tasteful use of motifs, “Leitmotiv” by Louis-Gabriel Pothier has a little something for everybody.

Asked to describe the overall meaning of “Leitmotiv,” Louis-Gabriel Pothier writes, “My instrumental piano music is mostly delicate and meditative. It aims to evoke feelings of nostalgia, sometimes melancholia, hopefulness and sadness all at once. It aims to bring back powerful childhood memories, to make the listener reminisce about past events which were significant to them, events that are now long gone. My music is very melodic, and it uses a cinematic language to bring images to the mind of the listener.”

The term 'leitmotiv' in music means a small phrase of notes which describe a larger idea when repeated, such as the simple, yet haunting melody of the Imperial March used by John Williams in his celebrated music for the Star Wars films. A fan of film background scores from a young age, Pothier has a knack for likewise using the leitmotiv effectively.

His true passions have always been music and cinema,” reads Louis-Gabriel Pothier's current official bio. “Even as a kid, he was especially interested in piano scores that could be heard in European and American films from the 70s to the 90s. He was particularly touched by melodic themes and phrases that were used as a recurring 'leitmotiv' for specific characters or events in a film. Thus the use of the word 'Leitmotiv' as the title of the present release.”

Pothier, himself, works in cinema as a film- and documentary-titling artist, creating rolling credits, subtitles and film titles for many productions. His official debut music release, “Piano B,” appeared in 2013. “Piano B” received radio circulation from Radio-Canada and local stations in Montreal, and several tracks were frequently aired on Quebec's No.1 radio morning-show, “Puisqu'il faut se lever” during their popular “Zen Moment” segment.

Leitmotiv” by Louis-Gabriel Pothier is available from quality digital music stores online worldwide now. Get in early, instrumental piano fans.

Plug Mello releases new album 'Power of the Flower'




The hip-hop and rap artist known as Plug Mello has released his official debut album, “Power of the Flower.” The album has been proudly published as an independent release without the involvement of the corporate music industry. Fun, uplifting, packed with rhythm and occasionally even inspiring, “Power of the Flower” showcases Plug Mello as one of the most intriguing hip-hop and rap music artists of the year so far and promises that he has plenty more where that came from.

Asked to cite some main artistic influences, Miami, Florida's Plug Mello talks about the perspective of great rappers.

Jay-Z, The Diplomats, J. Cole, Fabolous, Jadakiss, Pusha T and Eminem,” says Mello, “all legends in their own right. I think it's an essence they capture and I respect their vision and lyricism.”

Plug Mello's own sound takes elements from each of these and adds something fresh and unique for a result unlike anything today's music fans have heard before. With an emphasis on urban poetry, bassy beats, and the triumph of the human spirit, “Power of the Flower” by Plug Mello has a little something for everybody.

Asked to describe the overall meaning of “Power of the Flower,” Plug Mello writes, “My music is a fun outlet for my self expression. Its message is to live life on your own terms and enjoy the lessons because that's where the growth is.”

Plug Mello's not just having fun, though. He's also telling stories with an eye toward the future.

I enjoy painting with words,” he writes, “and this first album is just one shade in my palette of life experiences. It was a life goal I had. I want to be 80 looking back with a smile because I know I accomplished that goal for myself. If others enjoy it, that's a major plus, though it's not the determining factor in my definition of success. My kids knowing I set out to do it, and I did, that's what I define as successful because that seed is planted in their minds, and seeing it happen is different than hearing about it happening in school.”

Mello's concern for his family extends to his fans, too.

There are positive messages for my listeners,” he laughs. “You just gotta excavate a little to find the gems.”

Plug Mello has been described as “a captivating Dominican-American hip-hop artist flagrantly exercising his self expression giving listeners across all hip-hop channels a true refresh. With his northern bop crossed with southern melodic productions, blended with seemingly effortless witty lyricism, this artist is undoubtedly set to pave his own lane in the industry.”

Mellow, soulful, and written with the inimitable tenor of love, “Let's Make a Baby” showcases Chronade NALLYWAYS as a fine performer and promises that he has plenty more where that came from.

Western Australia's Chronade NALLYWAYS cites as main artistic influences Westlife and Michael Jackson.

Romance isn't the only thing Chronade writes music about, though.

I make music because I have a gift to share with the world,” he says. “A Christian prophet said to me, 'You have a heart of gold.' She also said, 'God created you to leak His light wherever you go.' So, I sing not just with my voice, but with my heart as well. I make music in order to leak the light of God to the world, bringing people comfort, inspiration, and joy!”

iBrazee releases new single 'Ah Shore Thing'




The songwriter and producer of R&B known as iBrazee has released his latest official single, “Ah Shore Thing.” The single has been proudly published as an independent release without the involvement of the corporate music industry. Chill, stylish, and more than a little inspirational, “Ah Shore Thing” showcases iBrazee as one of the most intriguing R&B artists of the year so far and promises that he has plenty more where that came from.

The East Coast's iBrazee cites as main artistic influences Tyrese, Akon, and Tank, but the artist is quick to point out that his own sound is fresh, unique and largely unlike anything today's music fans have heard before.

I don't really have a main influence,” he writes. “Music is really my outlet and I want to get the message out that you can get through whatever you go through.”

This theme runs throughout music by iBrazee. No surprise, that, either, considering his experiences.

Music was an outlet during my time in prison,” writes iBrazee, “especially when I unfortunately ended up in solitary.”

With an emphasis on warm tones, melodic precision, and a smooth delivery, “Ah Shore Thing” by iBrazee has a little something for every fan of the sound.

Asked to describe in detail the overall meaning of “Ah Shore Thing,” iBrazee writes: “The message is you can go through whatever and get through it. My personal message is that this is my last cry. No matter what I've been through, I came out of it. I want my listeners to keep pushing no matter the situation.”

iBrazee describes himself as an “overcomer.”

I did 20 years in prison,” writes iBrazee, “and I spent quite a few years on solitary – six years to be exact – and during those times it was music that brought me through. My music will tell a story of not only the struggles I faced, but those my listeners face, those my supporters may be facing. I want to give them motivation. I want to tell the story they may not know how to speak on.”

That's not his only message to the world, though.

I want my listeners to know this is only the beginning of iBrazee.”

Royalty Rulez releases new EP album 'The Blue Wall Back Drop'




The songwriter and producer of rap and hip-hop known as Royalty Rulez has released his latest official EP album, “The Blue Wall Back Drop.” It has been proudly published as an independent release without the involvement of the corporate music industry. Razor-sharp, eloquently performed and brutally composed, “The Blue Wall Back Drop” showcases Royalty Rulez as one of the most intriguing hip-hop artists of the year so far and promises that he has plenty more where that came from.

A popular single from “The Blue Wall...” by Royalty Rulez has been released with an official music video, “Dis N Dat” (link provided below).

London's Royalty Rulez cites as main artistic influences Jay Z, Nas, So Solid Crew, and the 1990-2009 era of rap music. Royalty Rulez's own sound takes elements from each of these and adds something fresh and unique for a result unlike anything today's music fans have heard before. With an emphasis on precise studio production, intuitive verbal gymnastics and pointed urban poetry, “The Blue Wall Back Drop” by Royalty Rulez has a little something for everybody.

Asked to describe the overall meaning of “The Blue Wall Back Drop,” Royalty Rulez writes, “The Blu Wal Back Drop is a mixture of dope rap and hip hop songs that bridge the gap between the new and old school. A mixture of flows while still pushing through a musical self-discovery. Staying true to yourself is the overriding message on this EP.”

Royalty Rulez's repertoire includes his popular “So Tired” single which dropped in January of 2020 with an official music video (link provided below). The track also appears on “The Blue Wall Back Drop.”

While Royalty Rulez (AKA Jakari, Prince Jakari, Double R) lives, writes, records and performs in the UK, his experience is just as gritty as an artist from the 1980s Bronx underground. His current official bio speaks of this:

Raised in the streets of London, no one can say his journey hasn't been tough or difficult, to say the least. Jakari counts himself as lucky to still be alive and not in jail. From London fields to Leytonstone to Shooters Hill, Jakari is quite familiar with gang culture, having been stabbed, himself. Yet there is a maturity in his music that doesn't focus exclusively on street life. Political and social issues are very important to Jakari as he regularly raps about this in his music.”

Royalty Rulez has also spoken about struggling with his health. A young survivor of cancer two times over already, the rapper even had a bone-marrow transplant at the age of 19.

People do it for the clout, people do it for the fame, but he stays true to his art,” his bio says. “Although Jakari's music is hip hop at it's core, he has a way of getting you engrossed in his music as he gets you to think twice on almost every bar on some of his tracks, like being in a 'hip-hop retreat.' His melodic flows bring that RnB flavour while still managing to keep that raw essence of rap.”

Summertime Chill” comes hot on the heels of her “Tranquility” 2019 release presented by Snoop Dogg. The Bohemian Dream Girl label says of Brielle Marie's EP:

The songs are reminiscent of the '90s golden era of R&B with artists like Aaliyah and Mariah Carey springing to mind. It's not difficult to see why Snoop Dogg, a legend of that era, is a supporter. However, they have futuristic production qualities and it's certainly a new, signature sound that will stand out among the crowd and attract R&B lovers from all generations.”

I started singing when I was very little and taking piano,” writes Marie of her career. “Later on Erik Nelson and Mario Toney started mentoring and helping develop me. They both have worked professionally in the industry.”

Summertime Chill” by Brielle Marie on the Bohemian Dream Girl label is available from quality digital music stores online worldwide now. Get in early, pop and R&B music fans.
