R&B/Pop singer, Krystle Cruz, plans to drop a brand new music video on June 9th. You can’t gleam too much information off this awfully brief 15 second clip, but hopefully your interest is piqued enough to check it out in a week’s time. This is her first official video since “Fall Out of Love“, which was released at the end of 2011.

On Fire Entertainment Launch “Boeing Jets”
Seattle’s On Fire Entertainment just dropped a new single called “Boeing Jets”. They’ve reported that this track will be on their upcoming project, Red, White, and Black – due July 4th. The song is headlined by L-Dubs & LOE and stays in the radio-rap lane that they’ve been sticking to thus far. I’m not entirely sure what happened to their Sex, Drugs, Rap and Soul album, but it looks like it may be on the backburner for now.
Jason Yang On Tour with Madonna
Being able to tour is exciting for any musician. Being able to tour with a superstar only sweetens the pot. That’s the position Jason Yang has found himself – he’s announced that he is now on tour with Madonna for her MDNA promotions. He is a part of her band and of course plays the role of the violinist. This is an incredible opportunity for the artist, and a well-deserved one at that! Congrats, Jason!
AHHH I'M SO EXCITED TO FINALLY ANNOUNCE THAT I'M ON TOUR WITH MADONNA AS HER VIOLINIST IN HER BAND!!!!!—

Adam WarRock Releases ‘The Kid’ EP
Adam WarRock’s rap topic du jour is based on the video game Bastion – a title he fell in love with when it was released last year. This collection of songs is called The Kid and has 7 tracks, all set to beats that sample from the soundtrack. Ya gotta love it when an artist can draw inspiration from any medium. Download the album for free, here.
Bastion. Maybe one of the greatest games I’ve ever played. I’ve loved it ever since it dropped on XBLA in 2011, and I’ve been obsessed with its soundtrack for a while. Home from tour, I finally got around to making a little EP for you about the game, made on the beats from the phenomenal soundtrack.
Thank you to Darren Korb (for the beats), Jen Zee (for the art) and all the people at Supergiant Games for making an incredible game.
Watch Andrew Huang “Destroy the World”
When watching the below video, don’t worry – you don’t need to adjust your monitor. It’s just another creative indulgence serving as a visual for Andrew Huang‘s “Destroy the World”. The song is off his Schism project from last November. This isn’t the first time I’ve said an A. Huang video is trippy, and I’m certain this won’t be the last.
Erin Paula Releases “Do You Think About Me”
This single has been a long time coming. Erin Paula‘s “Do You Think About Me” seen a big delay, largely in part to some production issues and sample clearances but the song is finally here. Thankfully, we were able to hear a live version of the mid-tempo R&B jam via her performance for MYX TV. It’s been a number of years since her Rin on the Rox days, but we’re glad to see her making moves.
Legaci Releases New Single – “Never Got Over You”
The R&B group, Legaci, has released a brand new single called “Never Got Over You”, their follow-up to “All Day.” The love-sick R&B single will likely be a part of their upcoming album, Driven. As of this writing, there was a hiccup and the song isn’t yet available on iTunes, but Amazon music customers can get the scoop and pick it up right away. We’ll be sure to update once it becomes available on the iTunes store.

Kero One Starts a Kickstarter Campagin for ‘Color Theory’
By now, I’m sure most of you know how the Kickstarted/IndieGoGo crowd-sourced fundraisers work. Kero One is the latest to start a campaign to help mitigate the costs of releasing his 4th independent studio album, Color Theory. The incentives include everything from a copy of the album to a personal performance at the venue of your choice. We encourage you to check out all the additional details over at Kickstarter.
Hey Everyone! Thanks for visiting my kickstarter page! I need your support to finish up my 4th studio album “Color Theory”. I’m extremely excited about this album and it’s my biggest album project yet, running 14 tracks deep with features from all kinds of great singers, rappers, and musicians in general. For the past decade, I’ve enjoyed having full creative freedom from self releasing my music and this release is no different – It’s just me and the music.
I plan to get this new album out in early July and I’ve already recorded, mixed, and completed the artwork for the project. Now, I need to master (engineer) the album, manufacture it and if we exceed the goal, create a photobook for the album, and pay for a nice music video (or two). I want this new album to take us to the next level! I’ve set a goal of $10,000 and if I don’t meet that goal, nothing gets funded. Yeah, that would be wack. So spread the word and this link! You are the media!
And, thankyou thankyou thankyou!
