Press Release:

“Next in Line” Music Showcase

Saturday April 24th (7pm)
Tennessee State University (Performing Arts Center)




NASHVILLE, TN.__March 24, 2010__ Nashville lyricist and Tennessee State University student Michael “Openmic” McGaha will take the stage as the headliner of the April 24th 2010 “Next in Line” performance showcase for aspiring music artists in and around Middle Tennessee.

Beginning at 7 p.m. in the Performing Arts Center (TV Station) on the TSU main campus, the show will also feature an opening dance number act as well as a performance introducing R&B singer, Jacob Sanders.

Next in Line helps independent artists launch their brands, hone their performance abilities and tap into a collective marketing & promoting effort. With an added purpose of exposing artist to record labels and label executives, the showcase also offers mentoring, feedback and training from veterans in the industry.

Openmic is a Nashville native, and now currently a student at the Tennessee State University as a sophomore majoring in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing. His musical influences stem back to his child hood with a listening to the raw jazz sounds of Miles Davis and Charlie Parker. Other influences come from artist like Jay-Z and Mos Def, while the elements of fashion, comic books, college, and relationships all add to the mix. Openmic dropped his first mix tape in 2007 at the age of 17, and now his 4th mixtape is set to drop in 2010 titled “A Different World.” For more information on Openmic visit www.mrhometownhero.blogspot.com

NEXT IN LINE

After careful consideration and plenty of debate, I have decided to proceed with my Next In Line music showcase event. Most of you are probably wondering why this was so important to post to my blog and it is simply because this event has a special purpose. Not only a purpose for the musician or artist that it will showcase, but also for my life. When the vision was given to me, I knew that I had to make it happen.

So you will here more about this event very soon. Trust me, it will set the tone for music showcases alike.

Laura Izibor


This past thursday I was able to meet w/ the very talented Laura Izibor and her manager Deborah. They were in town for their tour w/ Chrisette Michelle. The show was great as well as the meet & greet at Tennessee State University.

Wale vs Skip Bayless



Every now and then I always see something that I have to give my opinion on. I'll admit I had a good laugh after watching this debate between Wale and Skip. I always respect Skip just because he sticks to what he feels...even though it can come across the wrong way you at least have to give me that...

New blog!!

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm new to blogging, so give me some time before you start to see all the fancy stuff happen...lol
