News: Dallas’ Queen Ms.K Recognized As 1st Black Muslim Woman To Own Hip Hop Record Label

Khalilah “Queen Ms. K” Washington becomes 1st African American Muslim woman to own and operate a Hip Hop Record label.

“We are pro-artists always; Neo Gold is more than music. We stand and thrive on mental health and wellness, non-violence, and provide effective tools to ensure artists own their own power and deserved shine.”

Neo Gold Entertainment/Music Group LLC is a movement built on faith, legacy, and vision, driven by Khalilah “Queen Ms. K.” Fueled by her love for the culture, she has cultivated a label with a foundation based on three imperative pillars.

Mental Health Advocacy – breaking down stigmas and promoting wellness in an emotionally tolling industry.

Anti-Violence – utilizing music as a tool for peace, healing, and empowerment.

Purpose-Driven Artist Development – guiding talent to succeed and to evolve as individuals, artists, creators, and leaders.

Breathing and living these core elements, Ms. K is breaking barriers and reshaping an age-old narrative in Hip Hop.  “Through Neo Gold Entertainment/Music Group LLC, I’m here to show the world what the culture can become when it’s rooted in community and consciousness.”

In 2016, Khalilah “Queen Ms. K” launched Neo Gold Entertainment/Music Group LLC, which focused on management, development, bookings, talent searching, and more. This derived from her role as publicist and radio personality back in 2015 where she interviewed a plethora of music and industry icons on her show Queen’s Corner with Ms. K. Guests included Angie Stone, Xscape, Force MDs, Rakim, EPMD, Smif-N-Wessun, Craig G, Mr. Cheeks, Cutlord Swift, and that’s only naming a few. However, it was her time invested in indie artists and entertainers that ignited the flame to launch a record label.

“As a Black Muslim woman, my presence alone challenges stereotypes, but my ownership and impact go further paving a new lane for Muslim women in entertainment. I didn’t wait for access, rather, I built the infrastructure, opening doors that will allow others to walk through and push my legacy forward.”

She is known in the New England Area for NightLife entertainment and promotions for over the past ten years, she also has worked in the theater and Music business since she was a young girl in the Boston Area.

She is a leader and a team player at all costs. She is always willing to help and be a resource for her peers. WORCESTER – As a city at the almost literal center of Massachusetts, Worcester became an entertainment center in the late 1800’s as touring shows, bands and orchestras would travel from Boston to Springfield or vice versa with a stopover in Worcester. The 1920’s saw the rise of a bustling music and jazz scene in the city, exporting such famous people as pianist/composer Cole Porter, jazz drummer Frank Capp, and pianist/composer Jaki Bayrd. As the manufacturing industry attracted African Americans from the south, Worcester became a stopping point for blues, soul and R&B performers touring the northern leg of the Chitlin Circuit. The opening of the Worcester Centrum in the 1980’s made Worcester a stopping point for major concerts and tours, as promoters found the city more welcoming than arenas in Boston. Being in reachable proximity from Boston, Providence and Springfield, the venue steadily drew audiences from all three areas. With Worcester as a home to several live music venues of various sizes, and a homegrown audience of multi-genre music enthusiasts, it is of little surprise that Worcester has a growing reputation as a “Showcase” city, where music industry executives and concert promoters frequently come to scope out new talent. TM Lewis, Event Planner and A&R Consultant TM Lewis explains how she got her start as an A&R Consultant. “After a few years of promoting shows and events in Worcester, I came to know a lot of the folks from the industry,” explains TM Lewis, “I would sometimes give them leads on up-and-coming talent in the area and pretty soon I developed a reputation for having a good ear for talent.” Pretty soon, labels began contracting me to scope out a lead or a show that came to town.” This brought her to the attention of the UMG distributed hip-hop label, Up North Records, where Ms. Lewis became an A&R Director and eventually the Booking Agent for the label’s roster of artists. TM Lewis & Associates are proud to be based in Worcester, where they are helping to re-invigorate the soul music scene in the city, catering to the grown & sexy crowd. Ms. Lewis is particularly interested in creating a platform for New England based artists and companies to reach the larger regional and national markets. With a growing number of independent artists and record labels looking to expand their markets and looking to Worcester and a location to develop their sound and establish a fanbase; for the music industry and music fans alike, TM Lewis & Associates is the company to watch. TM Lewis & Associate CEO Wins Award from Women in Action, Inc TM Lewis, WIA Honoree and Award Recipient TM Lewis to be honored at the 6th Annual Small Business & Entrepreneurs Award Ceremony in Worcester. Women In Action, Inc. will be hosting its 6th Annual Small Business & Entrepreneurs Award Ceremony on January 20th, 2018, at the Worcester Public Library, 3 Salem Square, Worcester, MA. The ceremony begins at 11am. The Small Business Owners and Entrepreneurs Award Ceremony honors outstanding entrepreneurs in Massachusetts that show dedication, growth, and positive contribution to their communities. Among the honorees will be Ms Tarjiarkee M Lewis, CEO of TM Lewis & Associates, an entertainment consulting agency based in Worcester. An 18-year veteran of the music industry, whose clients include UpNorth Records, Liberation Multimedia, and Down Streeters as well as a host of independent recording and performing artists, Ms. Lewis has established an impressive portfolio in the entertainment industry.

It’s An Edurk Black Pablo & Awol GCode Promotions Takeover

CEO of Awol GCode Promotions (Alabama) Edurk Black Pablo is coming for an industry takeover, not only as CEO but as a rapper, singer, producer, and musician.

Pablo’s career took off in 1996 as a member of Dayton Family that was signed to a major deal with Relativity Records. The hit single at the time “F.B.I.” took off as #45 on Billboard 200. With a buzz circling his name, Pablo then began to collaborate with major artists including Hip Hop icon Master P for 2 Gold albums, ‘Down South Hustlers’ and 36 Mafia’s ‘Chapter II-World Domination.’ Soon Pablo took his career on the road when he toured all 50 states with Insane Clown Posse.

“I’ve been to prison, lost everything I had, lost my parents within a week apart, lost my brother, and ongoing life’s struggles forces you keep pushing on. That’s what I do and intend to continue doing.”

As a solo artist, Pablo’s latest single/video release “Tear Me Down” featuring T. Rell and Ziggy Zig Zag is stirring up quite the media and radio buzz. Steadily the track is climbing indie charts at #60 on Top 150 Independent Charts and at #161 on Top 200 Global charts. Pablo is also gearing up for a summer tour with Gucci Mane’s artist Enchanting, creating new music with multiplatinum producer Faided Beatz, and in the works of filming the Dayton Family documentary “Dope Dayton Ave.” “Big things are coming. I’m  blessed and keep letting God drive the car.”

Get Familiar With Pharaoh Rising-MC, Actor, CEO, and More!

Pharaoh Bio Pic 9

From an inmate to entrepreneur, actor, radio personality, and emcee; Pharaoh Rising has made a worldwide name and buzz for himself.

In his recent project titled ‘Supreme Balancement’ Pharaoh displays his uncanny versatility with impeccable flows and rhyme schemes reminiscent of authentic, classic Hip Hop. The first song “Changes” covers the chaotic Hip Hop cycles that repeat every decade. The dance hall hit, “Lean on Me” encompasses the full appreciation of a good woman. “No Matter What” is a street banger for those who still head nod to boom-bap. “Panties on the Floor” was tailor-made exclusively for the clubs and poles, while “Buckwild” is a celebration of life and embracing freedom. The project ends with “Think About It”, a reflection of the world we want to ignore, and a reminder that our past, present, and future are connected.

Supreme Balancement Cover Final Square

When he’s not full throttle in the studio, Pharaoh can be seen on Tylor The Creator’s Cartoon, “The Jellies”, “Diary of a Badman”, and the Underground Urban web series by Branchout Productions titled “The Ninth Pawn.” As a co-host on Re-Vision Radio, Pharaoh guides listeners through multiple dimensions, alien invasions, government conspiracies, and rules of the matrix. If that isn’t enough hats, Pharaoh is also co-owner of Natural Nature Herbs (naturalnatureherbs.com), based on the healing tradition of Dr. Sebi and wife Maa of the Fig Tree.

Pharaoh Rising is a promising breath of fresh air and a major staple in the music industry, Hip Hop culture, along with holistic and over wellness. Be sure to stream/purchase his catalog of music and his latest EP ‘Supreme Balancement.’
