Gregory Craig Brown Jr. (born August 28, 1990), professionally known as Its64boy is an American record producer, record executive, and CEO & Founder of Stackin Up Entertainment based in Virginia. Brown began a production career while in high school and became known for his successful production with hip hop and trap working with the likes of artists such as Iakopo, 2 Chainz, and Rick Ross to name a few.Music critics call Brown “A pioneer in the Music Industry”, while young fans in the new era of Hip Hop acknowledge the veteran producer 64 for producing the record, “Fineto” which amassed over 1 million streams.

What makes Brown most influential is the impressive resume he’s built in collaborations, as well as uniquely blending the Bay Area, Trap, and R&B sound. Contrast to being a music producer, Brown took action in publishing his own records under the creation of Stackin Up Entertainment with distribution services. Brown later landed a major distribution deal with GT Digital/EMPIRE Distribution that lead his independent label to expansion, along with charting #12 on the Apple iTunes charts. Its64boy has 2 newest singles that were dropped called “Saucy” with rapper Uneekint, “Saucy” and “Flip”. Continuing to stay at a rise in the new era of music, Brown’s debut EP titled, “Traumatized Life Story” gave fans deeper connection to his story-telling behind his stellar sonic production.

Seattle raised singer Liyah Dalani is quite the refreshing artist to listen to. Her new single “First Off” Hosted by Busta Rhymes is a raw cloth of R&B and soul. In her newest song, Dalani’s deep relatable storytelling reveals dealing with melodrama and low vibrations within rocky relationships. Alongside her soulfulness is fury setting the record straight with her man, telling him to “slow down”.

Captured in a sound of neo soul and blues, Dalani’s voice carries a distinct jazzy tone that is audible to a soulful color. Given a lowish soprano voice, Dalani has a naturally light voice and is able to sing comfortably high using head voice while applying a narrow vibrato. What attracts fans to her music is her lyric-driven messages and versatile voice that helps her blend styles within R&B and Hip Hop as a singer and rapper.

Not only uniquely diverse in sound, but in culture Dalani is of Pakistani descent and European descent. Coming from a biracial family, she was introduced to Pakistani and Bollywood music along with hip hop and rnb at birth. Dalani says while growing up in Seattle she listened to a lot of underground Seattle artists as well as bigger Seattle artists that have influenced music and culture such as Jimmy Hendrix and Nirvana. Following her new release, ”First Off”, she will be premiering the music video and working on her new album titled ‘Free $pirit’.

We had gone to see Peter play live just before Covid-19 exploded in the U.S. His songs are very nicely crafted and catchy… the folks around us thought, maybe Beatles mixed with Moody Blues and John Mayer. He had also played Drums for a Stevie Nicks Cover Band on the same night we saw him. We downloaded his CD from 2011 ‘Don’t Look Now’ and then found some more recent cuts on Spotify and iTunes.

His new stuff has a lot ethereal leanings towards spiritual questions and what’s this life all about type of subjects. We can also hear the very smooth female vocals in the background , reportedly his two daughters Amanda and Melanie. Seems Melanie makes a living in musical theatre and Amanda is an accomplished professional dancer. Peter is currently working on The CD titled ‘Eternal You’. Looks like four of the songs were already released while another three are currently being worked on in the Recording Studio. Singer writes on piano and guitar and say’s he gets better ideas and inspirations by going back and forth between the two instruments. He has 100’s of musical ideas recorded on an iPhone app… Singer say’s sometimes while driving the drone of the engine may incite a melodic idea.. If you’re in need of some really cool musical
environmentally friendly pop tunes, you are definitely encouraged to download some of Singer’s material.

R&B singer-songwriter Choyce Cincere unlocked his timeless sound on “With You (No Matter)”. The Jersey Shore singer says he wanted to get back in touch with the era of music that inspired him most. Taking it back to the vibes of 90s R&B era, he creates a bridge between the classic 90s and new generation sound. Choyce finds balance in showcasing his versatility in cadences, all while capturing a vintage taste reminiscent of New Edition. The music video, directed by Eric R Wilson, shows Choyce expressing his love to the woman of his life, in coherence that he is with her “no matter”.

The Jersey Shore singer began his career as a musician, who in recent years ultimately found his voice as an artist after working as a full time songwriter and producer. Choyce’s luring fine-tuned vocal ability and distinct ear for producing allows him to captivate his listeners with feel-good music and contemporary melodic ballads. Becoming a new sensation in music, Choyce wants to continue to showcase his artistry in all styles of the R&B and Hip Hop genre.

Coming off the release of his dance music collaboration called “Favorite” with fellow songwriter Quise. B and record producer Deyjan Beats, Choyce plans to drop a series of R&B singles at the start of 2022 after his “With You (No Matter) release.

After you’ve produced your songs and the Mixing/Mastering is complete, it’s time to publish your music on streaming services and download shops like Spotify, Itunes, Apple Music, Amazon Music Unlimited, Youtube Music, Tiktok. Some of the best Free Music Aggregators I review in this Blogpost are:

1. PMD Digital
2. Amuse
3. Tunecore
4. Cdbaby

1.PMD DIGITAL

PMD Digital is pretty new in music distribution game. Unlike other digital music distributors on this list, PMD Digital is an all in one platform for indie artist services.

I’ve tried almost all of the above music distribution companies. To be very honest, I’ll go for PMD Digital. The reasons are so many.

There is no subscription model in this platform. I hope it’ll change the market.

My Personal Experience with PMD Digital :

• YouTube Content ID
• Facebook UGC & Facebook Music.
• Soundcloud monetization.
• Tiktok Monetization.
• Fastest Distribution ( Distribute in 2 working days, Some time they distribute in 1 day as well ) 
• Distribution to 80% of streaming platforms (all the major ones)
• No Upfront & hidden fees.
• Monthly Payouts.
• Detailed Reports & Daily sales trends.

PMD Digital is a newly distribution company. It was launched in 2019, and I started using their services from 2020. So far overall experience is amazing, I never found any distribution like them.

That’s why I’m rating PMD Digital

2.AMUSE

Amuse is certainly unique when compared to its competitors. They offer some very cool features that a lot of other digital distribution companies don’t, so there’s many reasons they might be the right fit for your music.

First, they’re the only major company that allows you to distribute your music for free while keeping 100% of the profits. It’s pretty hard to compete with a price like that!

They’re able to offer this as music distribution is only part of their business model. When they see an artist that they think is going to be a success, they offer to sign them to their label. This is where they make the bulk of their income, in order to fund their distribution service.

If you’re hoping to get signed one day, the potential of a record deal is one more reason to go with Amuse. Of course, there’s no obligation to sign a deal with them, if that’s not your cup of tea. You can simply use them as a free service to distribute your music.

 Another interesting feature of Amuse is that they are the only major music distribution company that allows you to submit music from an app on your phone.

3.TUNECORE

TuneCore is one of the oldest digital music distribution companies and they have a proven track record because of that.

Like DistroKid, Tunecore lets artists keep 100% of their revenue. However, their pricing scheme is different than the others we’ve mentioned so far. They charge a yearly fee on a per single or per album basis. So, the more music you have, the more you’ll be paying each year and it adds up quick.

However, there are some perks to TuneCore that may make their services beneficial to certain artists.

First, TuneCore offers payment advances to artists who have had a significant number of streams in the past year. This can help you to fund future releases, much in the same way a label would, but as an independent artist.

 Second, they offer Songwriter Services, a program that will ensure you collect all of your songwriters royalties.

 So, although TuneCore’s services are more expensive than others, they may prove useful to artists who are making a significant income off of streaming, in order to offset the costs.

4.CDBABY

Where DistroKid is one of the most popular subscription based digital music distributors, CD Baby is one of the most popular companies that charge a one time fee.

Currently they charge artists just $9.95 USD per song or $29 USD per album. After that, your music will be sent to all major streaming platforms indefinitely (unless you choose to have it removed).

This makes CD Baby a much better choice if you’re only planning to release music a few times a year.

However, the one downside is that they do take a commission of 9% from any money you make through them.

Another perk to CD Baby, that a lot of other digital music distributors don’t offer, is there physical music handling. For additional fees, CD Baby can print you CDs or Vinyls of your music and even distribute them to stores around the world. Although not everyone may need this service, it’s a nice option to have in case you do.

After reading this article you should have a pretty good idea of what sets each platform apart from the next and which distributor is better suited for you.

RKOV is quickly becoming one of the rising names in music streaming platforms. The 30-year old DJ Producer from Casablanca, Morocco already collaborated with multiple big name artists and producers despite having no major deal as of today. That is not easy.

He first achieved international attention by creating new remixes to several artist’s songs such as David Guetta “Love Don’t Let Me Go”, Jaylann & Beathoven “Etranger” , Maroon 5 “Payphone”, Saad Lamjarred “Enty Hayaty” and now with his new release “Smoking Out The Window” remixing Bruno Mars’s song with Anderson Paak & Silk Sonic, It’s a powerful melodic remix with a funky EDM-infused edge, full of emotion and building euphoric energy.

He’s only been officially in the music industry for 5 years but already seems to have figured it out. His project release, “Smoking Out The Window” is currently buzzing over the internet with more than 2k Shazams in 4 days which set him on our radar. Let’s see how 2021 ends for him.

Jeff Tarver created Inner Artist Performance Studios with a vision to provide accessible, industry standard training for musicians and actors. With a strong mind for business, he has taken a small company, starting in Atlanta, GA and grown it across the United States to over 40 states. “I am thrilled by the growth and positive response we have from our clients about our program; It truly is something unique, built and created for beginners and professionals alike.” In speaking with Jeff, his drive and passion at the young age of 26 is notable, as well as his personal talent as a singer and pianist having performed professionally himself. 

What is it that made you begin this business?

“There is a strong need for the work that we do. The entertainment industry is difficult and quite perplexing to clients who have a talent, but don’t know how to market or utilize it professionally. I have experienced this personally, spending a great deal of money to talent agencies with no results for my financial investment. Pairing the business side of the artist to quality training from instructors who are actively performing across the United States brings a unique edge to the artists we work with. In my first teaching jobs, I found that having one set curriculum and way of doing things was suffocating to the client. It is my belief that every artist is different with various skills and weaknesses; This must be addressed on an individual level, not by a one size fits all approach. At Inner Artist Performance Studios, I am most proud of the personal commitment we have to each of our artists. We are always listening, checking in, and improving on ways we can better serve and ultimately help our clients reach their goals. I like to say that both our business and the artist are on a journey together; It is our mission to assist and be a positive, beneficial voice.”

In doing research about Inner Artist Performance Studios, we discovered this studio to be the first in the South East to offer what Jeff called “Pandemic Relief Packages” to clients. When the pandemic first began, Jeff said he witnessed large number of clients experiencing job loss and the inability to afford their training. He quickly stepped into action, providing internship opportunities, financial aid, and pay as you can systems so these clients did not have to discontinue their journey. 

What do you love most about the work you do?

“My clients and staff, first and foremost. Currently, we have a remarkable staff based out of Las Vegas, New York City, Orlando, Boston, and Mississippi. Our staff’s passion for the work they do is evident and it translates directly to our clients’ experience. To be able to have the passion of our staff mixed with the individual growth we see from our clients on a weekly basis is incomparable. It is a unique thing to be able to watch a client come in, once very shy, and in a few months actively participating in our masterclasses and virtual showcases that we offer; This evolution is what we love to see.”

We are excited to see the continued work of Jeff Tarver with his growing studio. To learn more about his business or the course offerings they have, you can visit Music Lessons Online and In Studio – Inner Artist Performance Studios.
