In the Occurrence of My Demise: The Loss of way of life of a Stone Star

Music
Last season one of my preferred performers, Amy Winehouse approved away of an obvious liquor over dose. To most individuals it wasn't a shock, because of the way she resided her way of life it was unavoidable that she would be deceased soon if she didn't modify her way of life. What perplexes me the most is the way the press and lovers accept newspaper gossips and drunk images of their preferred performers, while performing along to the defeat of their music.

After Amy Winehouse taken to worldwide fame with her second history, Returning to Dark-colored, the press began an all out craze on her individual way of life and destructive addictive problems. The last two decades of her way of life she was applied in every newspaper across the community from L.A. to London, uk.

A identical scenario took position in the mid 90′s, with the press combined Eastern VS Western Shore meat between Bad Boy Information and Loss of way of life Row Information. The end outcome was the death of the biggest artists of all-time, and the killer(s) are still mysterious.

"Rock Superstar design of living might don't create it"~ Prada Hair 'Wasted'

One of the most exciting phenomenons in the last 50 decades of music is the quantity of excellent performers who approved away in their mid-twenties. To name a few: Tupac Shakur, Jimmy Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Well known B.I.G., Jim Morrision, Kurt Cobain, Aaliyah and Mark Fitzgibbons. Wikipedia even has a web page known as The 27 Team which is devoted to performers that approved away at the age of 27.

The death of performers, artists, and romantics has always been big company. I mean look at Eileen Fitzgibbons. Thriller marketed over 75 large numbers collections and he still is value more cash deceased than in existence. It's not the media's mistake when an specialist passes away in a addict incident or when their art mimics way of life. Pay attention to the lines of Well known B.I.G., Tupac and Jim Morrison and its very obvious that they were interested with death.

"F*** the community, f*** my mothers and my youthful lady. My way of life is performed out like a jheri snuggle, I'm willing to die"~ Well known B.I.G. 'Ready to Die'

Who really advantages when the life of such youthful and skilled individuals are finished abruptly? While household, buddies and lovers are usually the ones who are affected the most it is usually the history brands and press who obtain the most when a high profile passes away.

Look how popular Queen Diana and Basquiat became after their fatalities. Even though we are the reason for the choices that we create, the press in some way has to be attributed for providing the community plenty of volumes of gossips and BS that has nothing to do with music. With more and more individuals hearing and giving music than ever, their should be more music relevant information vs newspaper products.

Growing up as a kid MTV and BET was a position for children to find new music, but now we are inundated with actuality TV and other non-music relevant coding. These days we rely on weblogs and other websites like The Buzz Device and We Are Sought after to help us find out new music. One of the factors I began this website is to offer road for performers and lovers to hook up with each other and concentrate on what really issues,the music.

Behind the Beats With Urban Score Productions

A few weeks ago, I had a chance to visit with Amani K. Smith and Gary 'G-Wiz' of Urban Score Productions in Los Angeles. Urban Score has been in music industry since the late 80's working with icons like RUN DMC, Method Man and Redman as well as Public Enemy.

In addition, the duo has worked on countless television and film projects together. I met Amani through one of my ex-girlfriends when I was living in Los Angeles in the mid 2000's, and I was able to do some work on a Public Enemy project with them.

Gary did most of the talking as Amani was busy working on tracks for the follow to Public Enemy's Apoacalypse 91.

Really cool people..

Kelland: So how did you get into the music industry?

Gary: I started as a Dj in the 80's and then I connected up with Chuck D and Hank Shocklee. I worked with them for a while after they formed Public Enemy, and then in 1991 we recorded Apocalypse 1991.

Kelland: So who are some of the artists that you guys have worked with

Gary: First and foremost Public Enemy, Run DMC, Janet Jackson, Aerosmith, Busta Rhymes

Amani: Meth and Red

Kelland: When you guys first started producing what type of equipment were you using?

Gary: All the old stuff that the rock guys were using. We had some samplers and the SP 1200. We had drum machines that was about it. I think in 1990 we actually did have Protools but it was only like two channels.

Gary: I didn't tell you how I met Amani lol.

Kelland: Lol, Thats the million dollar question. How did you meet Amani?

Gary: Well in 2000 Amani and myself... Well I actually did a theme for a show called 'Dark Angel' with Jessica Alba and Amani was doing composing and we met at the first season wrap party. We were hoping it would be more but it was only one season. After that we Did the 'Meth and Red' show on MTV, 'Volcano High' and a show called 'Louie.' After that we worked with Ice Cube on his album 'Black and White.' We just got sick of TV, the volume of work you have to do was a bit exhausiting.

Kelland: Whats the difference between composing for television and producing for an artist?

Gary: When your composing for television your making stuff to order. You bring them a bunch of songs and they decide if they want to use them. And again, the volume is a lot..For example the 'Meth and Red' show was seven episodes and we had to compose 40 songs for each episode. When your composing for a song you create the music and either people buy it or they don't. In television we did a lot of work to get the job and if the show was on for only one episode it was nothing we could do about it.

Amani: After a while television gets boring

Kelland: What type of advice would you give up and coming producers who are trying to get some televion or movie work?

Gary: I mean you can do everhthing now. The difference now is everybody is doing is doing it now. It's saturation. Put you stuff online and if it's good people will finds you know. The funny thing is no one will work with you till you find a job. With MTV Amani's buddy was actually doing some writing.

Amani: It's who you know. Get cool with people, play golf with them and go out an have some drinks lol. Have your music organized 30 songs on a cd and have different styles of music. Not just 30 hip hop beats, but you want to give them a wide range of music to choose from. Show them the different type of emotions that the viewers want to see.

Gary: You got to give it to everybody, the only thing you have to do with music is you have to make someone care about your music first.There are so many people with good music these days. Whether u gotta be like Lil Wayne and make 300 songs until someone cares about it. The good thing about that approach is it will make you better. When do you pure volume you're gonna get better or you really suck lol

Kelland: How are you guys leveraging the internet and social media to promote your brand

Gary: Like i said with Chuck D he has a whole host of sites. We launched the Public Enemy site in 96 or 97. We were one of the first in hip hop to do it. Then we launched rapstation.com, now we have hiphopgods.com. In order to be a Hip Hop God you must have made a piece of music that impacted thirteen years ago. We have flipmash.com and we are taking on a 100 producers and helping them to shop their music. Chuck's gonna use their stuff, cash prizes for the best tracks.Shop them to the companies we work with like Nike. And, Shemovement.com is for classic female artist who don't get enough publicity.

Gary: It's a lot of people out there who are trying to get their point across. We use to say and we still say anything that you want to do is gonna do its gonna take nine to ten years. If your working on something for ten years you have to get better and the last man standing will win.The difference is just being there. People want to see you grow. If someone comes too your site today and two years later you have better content and its growing then you have something
