ABOUT A BOOGIE WIT DA HOODIE
Totalling over 21B career streams and amassing more than 50 RIAA Platinum and Gold certifications, the chart-topping global superstar, A Boogie Wit da Hoodie has become one of the music industry’s biggest stars.
The Bronx, NY-native has been a force to be reckoned with since arriving on the scene in 2016 and earned his place as “the most promising young rapper the city has produced in some time” (New York Times) as he continues to sell out arenas across the globe.
With a dynamic catalog of world-renowned hit songs (“My Shit,” “Drowning (feat. Kodak Black),” “Swervin,” “Look Back At It” and more) and 4 critically-acclaimed albums under his belt (ME VS MYSELF, HOODIE SZN, THE BIGGER ARTIST and ARTIST 2.0), A Boogie has also become one of music’s most in-demand collaborators. He has worked alongside a wide variety of artists ranging from Ed Sheeran, Maroon 5 and Khalid to Chris Brown, DJ Khaled, Paulo Londra, Meek Mill, Pop Smoke and more.
ABOUT NLE CHOPPA
21-year-old NLE Choppa has impacted music as a multi platinum chart-topping artist and asserted himself as a champion for Memphis and the greater global community at large. At 16-years-old, he cemented partnership between his own NLE Entertainment and Warner Records, spawning a series of RIAA certified platinum hits. Even then, he’s always used his platform to affect positive change. The NLE Reading Challengeincentivized at-risk Memphis elementary students to read 40 million words, ultimately receiving Tennessee’sCharter School Centers Changemaker Charter Award!
He performed at GRAMMY in the Schools and organized the “Skate for Tyre” peaceful protest through the streets of Memphis at the top of 2023 and donated astate-of-the-art basketball court to the Raleigh Community Center with all-star basketball player NancyLieberman. Additionally, Choppa’s vegan lifestyle is also impacting the culture in a positive way.
His This Can’t Be Vegan Food Truck provides a healthy alternative on-the-go in his neighborhood. After his own spiritual awakening NLE Choppa placed an emphasis on mental, physical, and spiritual wellness, adopting veganism,meditation, and prayer. He continues to humbly seek and share enlightenment with his art as the foundation to implement lasting change.
ABOUT LUH TYLER
Wielding a wavy flow, irresistible melodies, and inventive dynamics, Luh Tyler animates bouncy anthems with undeniable unpredictability. He switches lanes seamlessly between his signature laidback cadence and airy high register, touting a style all his own. It’s why he’s quietly emerged as a vibrant voice out of his native Tallahassee, FL all before the age of 16. Growing up the youngest of three kids in “a good family,” he initially excelled on the basketball court as a point guard before picking up a mic in high school.
Inspired by local favorites Wizz Havin, Trapland Pat, L.O.E. Shimmy, and more, he started to upload music of his own. Following “5 On It Freestyle,” he gained traction on Spotify and YouTube with “Jayda Wayda.” Meanwhile, YouTube views on “Law & Order” soared. DJ Booth touted him as one of “10 Rappers You Should Know Right Now,” and Stereogum christened him, “Best new rapper.”
During late 2022, Tyler released “Back Flippin,” the in demand song he teased weeks prior on Tik Tok, which immediately bolstered with support from the likes of Jordan Ross, Chris Brown and Kehlani while Pitchfork declared “…Luh Tyler’s music makes you long for the days when chilling was your only responsibility…his punchlines are boosted by his icy delivery.” Now, he continues to surprise on a series of 2023 singles and his forthcoming debut project.
ABOUT FRIDAYY
With a voice that tugs at the heart and soul, Fridayy writes, produces, and performs songs that stand out from his contemporaries. After years of building a solid reputation with high-profile industry executives and musicians, the Philadelphia artist and multi-instrumentalist’s breakthrough arrived in 2022 as a feature on DJ Khaled’s “GOD DID,” featuring Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, John Legend, and Jay Z. He has also written and produced for Chris Brown’s tenth studio album, Breezy (“Wheels Fall Off” featuring Lil Durk and Capella Gray and “Need You Right Here” featuring Bryson Tiller).
Born Francis LeBlanc, he learned to play several instruments at a young age — including piano, guitar, drums, trumpet, and bass, at the encouragement of his father, a Haitian immigrant and musician. Fridayy further nurtured his love for music and instrumentation in a local church choir, where he’d begin to craft his spacious and evocative sound, a blend of alternative R&B and gospel that was also inspired by his favorite acts PartyNextDoor and The Weeknd. Between 2012 and 2013, Fridayy released a steady stream of music on SoundCloud. Though he was musically gifted, Fridayy worked on his art quietly while pursuing a career in basketball, but an injury derailed his professional dreams and set him back on a path towards music full-time.
In 2019, he moved to Los Angeles, where the pieces would slowly start to fall into place. A chance to perform for A&R’s at the Revolt Summit would fast-track his industry connections. By 2020, he met his manager and in 2021 signed his first publishing deal. But when that deal turned sour, Fridayy went back to the drawing board and looked elsewhere to make his mark on the industry by crafting hooks and samples using his voice, this caught the attention of music icon Timbaland who started showcasing those samples live on his Instagram. And with that spotlight of his talents the attention of multiple producers, artists, and labels all came looking to collaborate; along with a range of publishers who came looking to help get Fridayy out of his existing deal. Later, as Fridayy’s name continued to rise and after hearing his expansive and vulnerable catalog, Def Jam Records, looked to sign him to the legendary label in 2022.
This year, Fridayy will release his debut EP, Lost In Melody, leading with the single “Don’t Give Up On Me,” a sparse, guitar-laden record that boasts Fridayy’s soulfulness and rich vocals as he begs for a lover’s loyalty. The remainder of the seven-track project serves as a window into Fridayy’s emotions as a dream chaser — gratitude (“Blessings”), hope (“God Sent” featuring Vory), perseverance (“Empty Stomach”), and need for connection (“Come Thru”). It’s a well-rounded introduction to the musician. As Fridayy evolves as a singer, songwriter, and producer, he continues working with today’s music icons and upcoming stars, including Meek Mill, Lil Baby, and Don Toliver.
ABOUT BYRON MESSIA
Residing in St. Kitts but born in Kingston, Jamaica, Byron Messia is the hottest new reggae artist on the scene. His latest project No Love was released in January 2023 with features from dancehall artists like Prince Swanny, Jahshii, Govana, and Rytikal, and has quickly become a fan favorite currently on Apple Music Top 100 albums in Jamaica. The lead single from the project, “Talibans”, is currently at 36 million views on YouTube and reached # 1 on Apple Music in Trinidad & Tobago, Grenada, St. Kitts, St. Lucia and various other countries in the West Indies.
