Hot New Artist...


One of the greatest things about living in NYC is that lurking around every corner is an artist truly doing their art. Whether it's the musicians in the subways or the trained and seasoned at the MET bellowing the classics. There is always a show to be seen.

I feel like at the present time in music, artists truly have to be a package, know their lane and give the audience a show. Up and comer Solomon Cortes is doing just that. Known also as a noted producer, one may remember him from his previously released LP on iTunes entitled "Romeo IV" now he has decided to take a very different approach while still maintaining the elements that are intrinsically him. While aiming to be "more musically and lyrically intelligent", Cortes is striving to move pop music from poppy to sophistication. Check it:

I'm blunt...and rather observant...DUH that means I should blog! I suffer from, no let me rephrase, I combat living with an AVM on a daily basis. An AVM is an Abnormal Veinous Malformation which affects about 250,000 people in the US (http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/dept/cerebro/AVM.htm#Link8). It affects everyone differently, for me it's caused a constant headache since 2003...litterally. I've been in countless doctors offices, been poked and proded, been through the emotions of being misdiagnosed with a brain tumor. Needless to say, I've been through a lot and not just because of my...let's call it an ailment. Above all I've developed a less than common outlook on life and perception of things.Don't for one minute misconstrue, I'm in no way a victim, I'm self-sufficient almost to a fault and encourage others to turn their weaknesses into empowerment. It builds character and makes for one hell of a screenplay ha! That combined with growing up immersed in a semi-charmed world, and the glitz and glamour of Hollyweird leads to some interesting anecdotes...Here are my thoughts...

There are many other Headcases in the world...here are a few..
