When musical talent is embedded in a person, it’s usually hard to suppress it and for Damion Hype, the music just had to be made one way or the other. A look back at his genealogy showed him that his immediate ancestor, his father, wanted to pursue music but was unable to because he didn’t have the resources. Damion wasn’t going to be a victim of quashed dreams; so here he is today, making things happen and building a name in the music industry.

His love for music goes back as far as a high school student at Happy Grove High School in Portland. His first musical performance had him beating his desk and rapping popular dancehall with artist, Popcaan. Not long after, he left Jamaica for the United States to complete his high school education where he relentlessly pursued his musical dreams and followed the footsteps of successful global Jamaican stars like Bob Marley and his family, Sean Paul, Shaggy and dancehall’s Gongalee Louie Culture who hails from the same parish with Damion.

His biggest motivation was his father’s story as an upcoming musician. He watched him perform at various hotels in Jamaica with a band and seeing how the audience often cheered him on and enjoyed his performances gave Damion all the jolt he needed to take music on too. Damion released his first song, “Gone,” in 2016 featuring Twaine Henry. The song got some positive reception from his friends, family and growing audience, who all encouraged him to record more music. He heeded the advice and returned to Jamaica and recorded his second single and it’s been an upward movement from there.

Looking back, Damion Hype remembers running into one of his biggest inspirations, Louie Culture who told him that he had a unique voice and could succeed in the music business if he kept pushing and recording music. Today, Damion Hype has six official song releases under his belt and has certified himself as a creative lyricist. His songs include “Bad Gal,” “Tonight,” “Above Di Water,” “Baby Boo,” “You Mi Want,” and “Identity.” His songs have gained traction by being on heavy rotation on radio stations all over the United States, Jamaica, Kenya and the Caribbean.

The Memphis-based musician takes pride in being a creative songwriter with the ability to adapt to any music style or genre. “Even though I am from Jamaica and the slangs we use are not always easy to understand, I make most of my music with the intent that everyone can understand it,” he explained. “My single ‘Tonight’ has some Spanish, ‘Baby Boo’ has some African language, and so on. I have at least 4 songs out with foreign languages.”

Damion Hype has his sights set on conquering global music and touching as many people worldwide as possible. His five-year goals include selling out concert venues and performing to thousands of people, all singing his songs word-for-word. He also plans to give back to his community in Portland and Kingston Garden in Jamaica and be a change-agent for the people he cares deeply about. With his new single “Secret” making waves and the video in the pipeline, Damion Hype believes there’s more to be done and he’s rolling up his sleeves to deliver the best to his audience while building a legacy that will outlive him in the hearts of many.

The success of a musician’s career hinges not only on their artistic prowess but also on the effectiveness of their marketing and promotional campaigns. Cognizant of this, talented artist Drew Lines decided to join forces with powerhouse record label Stryker Records.

The aspiring artist, born Andrew Wold, is not a newcomer to the industry and had already built a successful career as a musician. But, as fate would have it, his well-deserved day in the sun did not last long. The singer went through a series of career and life-altering adversities.

The artist first rose to fame as part of the group called The Brotherhood, together with his older brother C.J. Wold, better known as Sycoscribble. Everything was going exceptionally well, and the duo has released multiple tracks and an album. On top of that, people started recognizing the pair’s talents and praised them for their authenticity. 

However, their success was cut short when C.J. suddenly passed away in a tragic accident. The unfortunate incident had shaken up Drew and what was once an optimistic individual lost all hope. 

Nevertheless, the determined Andrew Wold picked himself back up and continued what he started. Under the moniker Tiger, he formed another group called Sheol Dynasty with Scott Keller. Just like his initial group, they had gained a lot of attention and even had a tour around the country. 

Unfortunately, Drew was a car accident where he was thrown out of the car’s windshield. As a result, he suffered severe injuries, including several broken bones and a fractured skull that left him in a coma. 

Despite all that, Drew did not give up on his dreams and life. After dealing with hurdles left and right, Drew Lines has bounced back once again. But, more importantly, he is ready to conquer the music scene with the help of Stryker Records.

The esteemed record label led by Chris Dobry is known for promoting live events with A-list artists like Merle Haggard, John Anderson, SheDaisey, The Goo Goo Dolls, Saving Abel, Saliva, Trapt, and Tantric. In addition, the company is responsible for helping artists promote their music and earn a spot on the coveted Billboard charts. 

Stryker Records recognizes the musician’s prowess in creating poetic lyrics and inspiring music, and it is determined to provide him with an avenue to share his talent with the world. 

Under the label, Drew Lines has released his single “Rise,” Produced by Malcolm Springer and a music video produced by Malcolm Springer II, in collaboration with Mainstage Media and Mad World Apothecary. 

Undeniably, Drew Lines is back, and he is on his way to dominating the charts and the music industry with his impressive skills and the help of Stryker Records.

Fans and listeners should be on the lookout as the singer prepares to drop his debut album, which he is working on together with multi-platinum producer Malcolm Springer and Award-winning producer Scott Wilson at the House of Blue Studio in Nashville.

Behind all music is a story—not one that all listeners will readily hear as it’s often masked behind catchy lyrics and earworm tunes, but there’s a story nonetheless. As is the case with singer and songwriter Lala Wright. The musician bears her story to the music world as she gears up to introduce her brand of music to listeners everywhere.

Born and raised in Broward County, Florida, Jayla Wright, also better known by her musician name Lala, grew up falling in love with dance and music day by day. She spent time singing in church and never missed one Sunday. But, after years of growing her craft, she suddenly felt the pressure of the stage, causing her to shelf her talent for so many years.

“It pushed me away for years, so I did not think twice about singing again, but I did continue dancing,” shares Lala Wright. 

During her elementary, middle and high school years, she attended a performing arts school in Broward and focused mainly on dance as her specialty. She dived into all kinds of genres, including ballet, hip hop, contemporary, and some others. But her real passion was being part of the Majorette for the school’s band.

“The love I had was a great experience that was rekindled when I joined in high school, then I started to adventure out into baton twirling and competed in many competitions,” Wright shares. 

During one talent show, Lala came across singing again, but this time without the stage fright. At that moment, she knew that music was still in her. After that performance, someone approached the artist and offered her a chance to sing professionally, expressing confidence that Lala could become a music star. Despite her initial hesitations, Lala Wright decided to give it a shot. The rest is history. 

What sets Lala Wright’s music apart is where it comes from. Many people in the industry have noted her singing and music as evidently coming from an “original soul.” Lala is creative in her conceptualization and expression of that soul in her. Moreover, Wright remains extremely hungry for growth and improvement, always motivated to stay ahead of her game and become the best that she can be. Apart from her music, she still explores other forms of creative expression, including clothing design and writing. 

On stage, Lala Wright is what some have termed a “triple threat,” bringing together excellence in singing, dancing, and overall stage presence. She mainly performs pop R&B music and remains ready to entertain, pushed mainly by her desire to share her talent with her audience, knowing that it can bring joy. 

Lala Wright works endlessly to improve her craft and regularly network with other music professionals with whom she can create inspiring content. However, her comforting sound remains to be a source of solace for people looking for music that could speak to them in good and bad times. And Lala is more than willing to be that source of peace for those people. Lala continues to explore other genres and could well start experimenting with them soon.

Artists wield significant influence, and some are of the opinion that such influence should be used to impact lives rather than merely for fame or glamor. One of such artists is Voiceveray, who uses his talents and skill to lift and encourage others.

Born in Columbus, Ohio, Voiceveray is an independent music artist, entrepreneur, and the CEO and founder of the independent record label Voices Choices Studios. He is known for his versatility and profound sense of spirituality, which he incorporates into his music style—comfortably creating unique sounds across genres from rock, pop, hip-hop, reggae, latin to R&B, country, and soul.

Over the years, Voiceveray has honed and developed himself into a veritable musical virtuoso with a conspicuous ability to connect with his audiences by creating unembellished and heartfelt lyrics. As stated by Voiceveray, his latest single, “Betrayal“.  This distinctive record speaks on extremely dark themes of duplicity and back-stabbing drawn from his real-life experiences since the turn of the year from close ones and others in the music industry.

Voiceveray does not shy away from declaring his faith as his core inspiration and has devoted his talent to producing tunes that resonate spiritually with listeners worldwide and inspire them not to lose their faith.

“This is something I do personally on occasion. I ask God for wisdom, discernment, and spiritual, mental, physical vigilance—to remove the veil from my eyes and open my ear gates to the truth,” he said. Orienting himself as an atypical rapper, the remarkable artist excels in clean, positive music and alternative gospel.

At twenty-five, the young entrepreneur serves as the CEO of his company, Voices Choices Studios. Talking about his motivation, he said, “Our foundation is built upon working with musicians, vocalists, instrumentalists, and more to glorify the kingdom of the Most High God.”

Voiceveray underscores that his studio was not created for money or fame but a desire to guide other aspiring artists to recognize their true calling and help lost individuals rediscover their path in God. As a result, the label works exclusively with artists whose music is free from explicit content or suggestive themes.

At Voices Choices Studios, Voiceveray functions as a one-person act, engineering, recording, mixing, and mastering each track according to the highest industry standards. In addition, he also handles graphic design and film direction. However, despite all the hats he juggles, Voiceveray maintains an uncompromising standard in the quality of his productions, with keen attention to detail, noting that the value in his work speaks for itself.
