Mishon

Get ready for Mishon (MY-shawn), a young singer and songwriter who represents the next wave of pop R&B edged with hip-hop fire. The 16 year-old vocalist has already stirred up noise with “Just A Kiss,” which shows off the Los Angeles native’s soaring vocal dexterity and considerable teen charm.

This multi-talented teen is already a TV star thanks to his role as spunky kid brother Tay on the ABC Family Channel drama “Lincoln Heights,” which is currently running. Though Mishon has developed his own fan base thanks to his acting chops, he says that singing has always been his first love.

While Mishon is ready to kick-start his run at the charts and already shines on the small screen, he remains humble and reminds other teens to keep their priorities straight. “Something I would like to tell teens is that if they’re a musician--or whatever they may do-- they should remember that their parents always support them, so they shouldn’t be afraid to talk to their parents,” says Mishon, whose name is a mashup of the first names of parents Michael and Shontay. “I know that a lot of teens are kind of rebellious sometimes, but just keep your support behind you and keep God number one and follow your dreams, don’t ever give up. That’s been my stronghold for the last six years.”

Vistoso Bosses

When you meet Taylor "Taylah P" Parker and Kelci Ferguson the girls behind Vistoso Bosses, the first thing you notice is their style, especially since they have the kind of confidence you'd never expect from a pair of 17 year-olds. Their fierce dedication to their music taught them that maturity is something you earn through self-respect, not age. Vistoso is a Spanish word that means gorgeous. Their first single is "Delirous". You can communicate with the girls directly through their MySpace and YouTube videos, and look for their Ultimate Young Lady sorority.

Jaicko

“When I started to grow my hair and I got expelled from school, I knew that music was going to be my future. I thought ‘This is what I have to do now’ because I just sacrificed my education. School in Barbados is very different than in the United States because we were a British colony; you wear a uniform, your hair has to be a certain length. When I stepped out to do this that’s when I started to take music really seriously. I knew my hair would be a big part of my image. I knew there was no going back.”

Meet Jaicko (pronounced Jay-Ko) and his current single and video "OH YEAH". This Capitol Records album will be available this December. ~Moxie

More Than A Game


MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE FILM MORE THAN A GAME brings together an A-list line up of stellar artists. Mary J. Blige’s “Stronger,” is the first song to be released and is a heartfelt richly textured ballad that embodies the emotions that are revealed throughout this amazing film. Music from the film also delivers dynamic iconic songs that reinforce the messages of strength, loyalty and friendship that is exemplified in the film. It also boasts the debut single from one of today’s most sought after songwriters, Ester Dean who has written for the likes of Mary J Blige, Pussycat Dolls, and Keri Hilson.

MORE THAN A GAME opens in Los Angeles, New York and Cleveland on October 2nd. Five talented young basketball players from Akron, Ohio star in this remarkable true-life coming of age story about friendship and loyalty in the face of great adversity. Coached by a charismatic but inexperienced player’s father, and led by future NBA superstar LeBron James, the “Fab Five’s” improbable nine-year journey leads them from a decrepit inner-city gym to the doorstep of a national high school championship. Along the way, the close-knit team is repeatedly tested — both on and off the court — as pressures within, including James’ exploding worldwide celebrity, threaten to destroy everything they’ve set out to achieve together. MORE THAN A GAME, directed by Kristopher Belman, combines a series of unforgettable one-on-one interviews with rare news footage, never-before-seen home videos and personal family photographs to bring this heart-wrenching and wholly American story to life. ~Moxie
