K'nomi
Young and New Black artists continue to blow up and blow our minds away. K'nomi is doing just that. She has style, talent, and gives remarkable passion to her music. A huge role model K'nomi continues to be for those in her age group and coming up after her. Being super bold and super brave while sharing her creative artistry with the world at such a young age is courageous, and super dope. She shines bright in her recently released music video Blow-Up. Blow-Up showcases the identity and feel of this talented artist and is also a good example of her accomplished work which has been receiving amazing feedback and there is so much more to come from the new hip hop artist. In the video, you can see her enjoying fashion, money, cars, and friends as a 16 year would. This video is very relatable to everyone who is or has ever been 16 years old. K'nomi's music is available on all platforms including Tidal, Amazon, YouTube, iTunes, Apple Music, and Spotify.

ReddRoxx
A Message From ReddRoxx Multi-Media Personality & Brand Manager For The Re-Launch of Hip Hop Weekly Radio My name is Maria but most know me as my personality name ReddRoxx. I've been in radio for 9 years and counting. I began as an intern at 93.7 WBLK and have been there ever since after landing my first radio show a few months after my internship concluded. I feel like I'm super down to earth or at least I'm told that I am lol. I feel like it's a result of my life experiences as a mother of three, domestic violence survivor, and growing up on the East Side of Buffalo which makes me relatable and able to easily connect with my listeners and followers. I love what I do, especially the niche I've found for interviewing. I began to interview some of your favorite celebrities through my career in radio and as a member of the Secret Society DJ Coalition. I love it so much that I created a web show dedicated to doing that called "On The Roxx" where I can get personal and have uncut conversations with some of the industry's biggest stars.

LATAUSHA
IAMLATAUSHA started her journey in the music industry almost 15 years ago as a songwriter and recording artist under the moniker Cold-Hearted. Born and raised in Indianapolis, IN, she faced a lot of challenges trying to “make it” in the music industry in a market with limited resources, capital to invest, and knowledge of how the music business actually works. All she knew is that she had a passion for music and wanted to be respected, successful, and profitable in the industry. What many don’t know is that IAMLATAUSHA never set out to be the best artist in the business and ironically was sought out by other more talented artists seeking her assistance with their music business. One thing that separated IAMLATAUSHA from the “average” artist was not her talent but her business-savvy, confident swag, the gift of gab, and boss lady persona. Identified as the “full-package”, IAMLATAUSHA continued to elevate herself by learning the business of music, networking, and grinding nonstop against all odds.
