Back then, Mariah Carey, Stevie Wonder and Teena Marie were among the vocal heroes of young Gloria who soon began lessons with the world-renowned composer Dr. Lena Mc Lin. Over time, Dr. Mc Lin helped Gloria nurture her skills as a artist that gave her the confidence to relocated to New York City and focus on her music career. “I knew moving to New York would be my push to pursue my dreams to make them my reality.”  

Remember the days when artists truly could sing? Remember hearing songs filled with heart felt words from beginning to end? Remember when artists were able to perform with such stage presence that seemingly invited the audience into the world of the artist? These days are upon us again and the leader of this resurrection is Lydia Caesar. Not your typical R&B bombshell, Lydia’s soulful yet edgy vocal ability and sultry voice are a force not to be reckoned with. A lover of many different genres of music, Lydia was introduced to rock music early on in her life. With this influence, Lydia and her producer MotesArt have created a fusion of Rock and R&B which they call "Rock&B" Born and raised in Hollis, Queens as one of four children to a Jamaican mother and a father with St. Lucian roots, Lydia’s strong, musical church-going family consequently lead her to singing. “Music is a way of life, it’s in me and I can’t help it so that’s why it means so much; I write what I live.”

As soon as you hear the music of singer & songwriter Karma who is based out of Los Angeles, CA; you will quickly realize that not all Karma is bad. The 25 year old describes her style as R&B sprinkled with a twist of Hip Hop and Soul. Since the age of 7, Karma who was born Paula Renee Joseph absorbed every ounce of music she heard which eventually led her to embark on her own music career. Appreciating music from artists who may not be number one on the charts all the time, Karma notes artists such as Teedra Moses & Aaliyah as influences in addition to legends such as Mary J. Blige, Gladys Knight, Lauryn Hill & of course Aretha Franklin just to name a few. Choosing to pursue singing was a serious decision for Karma once she realized jaws dropping followed by applause when she would imitate her favorite singers that came on the radio while she was growing up. Karma learned at an early age that being versatile with music would lead to a well rounded career so she immersed herself in to Jazz, R&B, Soul, Hip Hop plus Pop music to help cultivate a unique style all her own.

Canadian artist Sarah MK is well-intent on redefining the preconceived notion of what a modern-day songstress should sound like. From the harmonious nature of her vocal arrangements to her melodic compositions, reflecting the thoughts and ideas of a woman with a strong sense of purpose, Sarah MK strikes the balance between message and music with graceful mastery over multi-instrumentalist producer Jordan Peters' handcrafted soundscapes. Seamlessly alternating from slow-burning R&B to full-blown MC, she has a measure of versatility and scope matched only by her lofty ambition. Sarah MK aspires to elaborate her progressive agenda of forward-thinking, honest music, rather than the nostalgic pining of most old-school revivalists. The first iteration of this philosophy is her debut EP in which she champions self-improvement via the evaluation of her life's experience, wondering out loud: is it Worth It?
