New York’s Rockwelz is back from his European Tour and fresh in the studio! “Royalty” featuring Money Im Countin (M.I.C) is the first single off his latest EP “LL New J”. The EP is available now on all digital streaming platforms and for purchase.

“Royalty” is not a track boasting about a flashy lifestyle, dead weight bling, or over exposed women.  This is a track describing the life led by Rockwelz.  Why is Rockwelz claiming “Royalty” status?  The answer is quite simple, because he’s embraced by a circle of trustworthy family, friends, and fans. “To be royal you need to be loyal”.

This Bronx collaboration is set in the city with images that depict the theme of the track and set the tone for the ethereal yet upbeat tempo.

NYC MILLIONAIRE PROVIDES OVER 4,000 U.S. IMMIGRANTS WITH FREE VEHICLES & HIGH-PAID JOBS

The American Dream, is just that simple according to Israel’s Tomer Zur who employs fellow U. S. immigrants with opportunities to become their own bosses. Zur has an estimated net worth of $140 million dollars and is CEO of the award-winning consumer transportation company called Luxury One Corp.

Zur served three years in the Israeli military and then migrated to New York City in 2006, made a home for himself, and began to develop and build his empire. In 2014 Luxury One was ready to launch! Zur understands first-hand the difficulty of making it into this country legally, and that’s only half the journey especially in the new Trump era. So it is through the success of Luxury One that Zur is offering immigrants zero down on a vehicle and providing Israelis employment through the company’s black car taxi service.

“I personally believe that the transportation business in New York City is very competitive; however, I am confident that we are the most affordable solution for any driver looking for an opportunity to make a living.”

Many reading this might think what is the catch or how does this work exactly? According to Zur it is quite simple. Immigrants arrive in the U.S. with a visa or green card, he then supplies them with cars and assists them with making decent livings without a boss. Zur doesn’t accept a down payment on cars or any money when employees sign. Luxury One is known as a place to walk in with empty pockets and leave with a vehicle.

“Employees are getting a car that’s good to work in region of NYC and they don’t have to worry about insurance or repair, just earn money to support their families.”

Several financial reports predict that Luxury One, if business continues at its successful pace, will have over 10,000 taxis and annual sales of about $300 million in the NYC area alone. To date Zur has plans on expanding the company over the West Coast and is currently location shopping in the Los Angeles area.

“My generosity is all due to the fact that I personally went through the struggle when I came to this country, and I recognize the struggle is real, difficult, and challenging…I have the opportunity to give back and help my fellow countrymen.”

Luxury One is currently accepting new self-contractors at the Bronx and Manhattan locations. All inquiring individuals must provide proper paperwork including work visa or green card. For complete information visit the official website at www.luxuryonecorp.com.

Hugo who is known in New York as the next rising star, announces the release of his new hit single “8 or 9”, which is off his forthcoming EP.  I had the opportunity to chop it up with the young artist about his new single, the inside scoop on his new EP, and his plan to become a chart topper!

MJ:  Before we get to what fans have been anticipating, let’s take it back a bit.  As a teenager you were quite the local celebrity winning talent contests and even creating music in the studios. How did music first enter your life?  At what point did the epiphany hit that this was not just a hobby to pass time?

Hugo: It’s always been a part of my life. I remember as far back as 5 years old singing along to the radio and getting positive feedback from adults saying that I sounded good. In High School I realized I could possibly do this as a career.

MJ: You have quite the unique style of singing and your voice crosses over into many genres of music.  Although that’s an incredible talent, do you find it more challenging to be accepted into the world of Hip Hop and R&B?

Hugo: I think real fans of music across all genres will accept my style overall. I’m from New York City where there are so many styles, cultures, and types of music. All of that contributes and reflects my own style.

MJ: Ideally in the music scene the main goal is to become a household name, worldwide! What steps are you taking to achieve that?  Do you think that ties in at all with being receptive to artist development and guidance from past music veterans?

Hugo: My main goal is to make great music, everything else is secondary to me.

MJ: Ok let’s talk music! You have a hit single titled “8 or 9” which is off your forthcoming EP. Can you share some inside scoop about the EP, without giving too much away?

Hugo: Without giving too much away, it’s a sea of melody and eclecticism.

MJ: Now tell us about “8 or 9”, from the idea to the evolvement, to the final product.

Hugo: “8 or 9” pays homage to the late 90’s and early 2000’s of R&B. Originally that was my only idea but it evolved into a feel good summer anthem.

MJ: Although still very early in your career, you have already worked with quite a few industry mixers. What major artists would you like to collaborate with or share the stage with?

Hugo: I like the guys I work with now and I would enjoy to share the stage with them.

MJ:  Take us on stage with Hugo…Give us three words to describe your stage presence.

Hugo: electrifying, hypnotizing, and Oreos! (ha-ha)

MJ:  What is it about your style and flow that separates you from other artists?

Hugo: I’m approachable, humble, and honest. Everyone can relate to my music.

MJ: As we wrap up let’s give the fans a peak into your personal side.  Where would you like to tour? Who’s in your personal playlist? Who inspires Hugo?

Hugo: I would like to tour globally on cruise ships as well as on airplanes… big ones like 747’s! But seriously I’m open to touring all over the world one day, I haven’t seen most of it yet! My personal playlist varies but a little sample would be Ryan Leslie, System of a Down, The Carpenters, and MJ’s “Off the Wall” album.  As for inspiration that comes from my loved ones and their determination to succeed in a world where the odds are stacked against them.

MJ: Is there anything else you would like to share with the world?

Hugo: More of my music as that’s the best way I know how to express myself. It’s always been like that. You wouldn’t know how I was feeling if we shared a conversation, but if you hear one of my songs you’d know exactly what’s going on with me.

MJ: Much continued success your way, salute!

Hugo: Thanks MJ!

SINN, a seasoned 20 -year vet in the music industry, has an incredible story that credits to his rise to fame.  I had the opportunity to link up with SINN to discuss his story and truly embrace his journey.

MJ: I want to begin by taking readers way back to the early years of SINN.  when were you introduced to music?  Was there a certain circumstance in your life that pulled you into music?

SINN: I was introduced to music at the age of 6.  My family had a studio that I would sneak into and my mother would take me to church with her where I would enjoy the sermon and the choir.   What pulled me into music was the way music made people move, react, and feel.

MJ:  Share with us that moment in your life when you knew music was much more than just a passion or hobby.

SINN: I would say after winning a few local rap battles in high school. I surprised my school by performing a song I created in a talent show and after seeing the reactions for something I created I knew God had blessed me with a gift. I also knew that when I couldn’t sleep without hearing beats and rhymes in my head at all times that I had to share what was in my head with the world.

MJ: Riding also plays a significant role in your life.  How does that lifestyle intertwine with creating music and your deliverance to fans?

SINN: I have certain passions in life which are Money, Music, and Motorcycles.  When I am riding my mind is free and clear to enjoy the beauty of life and its surroundings and I become inspired by it.  I am part of the biker community so I live the biker lifestyle.  I want the world to experience it thru my eyes and feel the love and passion that I have for it.

MJ:  Not many know that you have worked with many major artists such as Prince, Alicia Keys, Jay Z, and that’s just to name a few.  I’m sure those experiences were both rewarding and knowledgeable.  Tell us some key pointers about the music business that you learned during those times. How would you say those experiences influenced the path of your own music career?

SINN: Yes, I was blessed to have been at the right places at the right time.  What I learned from them was to never waste time because no matter how much money you have you can never buy time.  I learned that you have to stay focused and it takes time to make quality and timeless music.

MJ: Let’s talk about your music! As a 20-year vet in the game I know you create timeless music and music that exceeds what’s hot right now or the latest trends. Describe your style and flow. What separates you from others artists?

SINN: My style and flow is original. I let the beat tell me how I am going to approach each and every song, so as the beat changes so does my flow. When people first hear my voice they say I sound like DMX, but with my own swagger. I am honored by that fact.

MJ: You have an extensive music catalog all of which is available on digital streaming platforms. Talk about your progression as an artist throughout the years.

SINN: My progression came about in a totally different way than most. I focused on creating the music and learning the music business first.  I focused on producing and engineering, then mixing & mastering other artist’s song.  That lead me to ghost writing songs for other artists.  I decided to focus on building a musical legacy after my near death motorcycle accident. I went to visit my uncle in Pittsburgh who was dying from cancer, barely could speak with a tube in his throat…his last words were you need to put out this CD…One week later I was in Ohio riding when my uncle past.  I was out riding with my sister when I was struck.  I woke up in traffic when I regained consciousness and her first words to me were “It would be a shame for you to die with all that music inside you.” So I went to the hospital, healed up a bit, went home still bandaged up and began recording. I haven’t stopped since!

MJ:  Thank you for sharing that, this is your destiny! What is out now for fans and listeners to get their hands on? Also tell us about some upcoming projects, collaborations, or tours.

SINN: I have released 17 songs this year so they can experience Ryder Music. As far as my projects, collaborations, and on my upcoming tour fans can stay up to date by logging on to www.hmdmuzic.com.

MJ:  Hip Hop…What does that mean to you? As an artist do you feel you contribute to the culture of Hip Hop?

SINN: Hip Hop is a culture, a language, and a lifestyle that we are involved in.  I would like to believe I give back to Hip Hop what it has given to me, and that is a purpose and a drive as well as an avenue to deliver a message.

MJ: Before we wrap up let’s give fans a better feel on who SINN is.  Name 3 artists in your personal playlist. What 3 places would you like to tour?  Who would you name as the most influential person/being in your life?

SINN: The artist in my playlist are: Jay-Z, 50 Cent, and The Temptations.  Three places I would like to tour are: Japan, Africa, and Guam. The most influential person in my life is my mother!  Her drive is an inspiration in itself.

MJ: Is there anything else you would like the world to know about SINN?

SINN: Always stay hungry for success but never starve for attention.

MJ: Thank you for taking time out for the readers and fans. I wish you continued success, salute!

SINN: Thank you and I am honored.
