Hard-hitting rap artist and songwriter Macntaj is gearing up for yet another highly-anticipated release as he has announced that he will be launching another single in the coming days. The track is entitled “Stepped On” and will go live on the music and mixtape launch platform, Thizzler. 

The newest song by the artist will feature a collaboration with Los Angeles-based musician Stackz Tha Rapper. The two artists are part of Bloc Star Evolution, a record label that Macntaj recently penned a seven-figure deal with. “Stepped On” is one of the many projects that the artist will be doing in conjunction with the record company and promises to deliver on many levels. 

Macntaj has consistently been on an upward trajectory since 2016 after he showed up on Bassnectar’s hit track “Level Up.” Other notable projects under the artist’s belt include performing on the 2017 album Reflective and contributing to the song “Infrared.” After multiple appearances on other artists’ works, Macntaj branched out in 2017 after collaborating with producer Raz Simone and Gunplay. The group came up with an EP album entitled Omni that became a massive hit in the underground hip hop scene in Denver and many neighboring cities. Following Omni’s success, Macntaj flew to India to do an extensive music tour. He would return stateside in October 2018 to start working on his next single, “Live Enough,” and a mixtape called “Trappy Gilmore” to follow in 2019. 

With the release of “Stepped On,” Macntaj, along with Bloc Star Evolution and Stackz Tha Rapper, look to break more barriers in the music scene and start a string of projects that will push the envelope in a creative and commercial sense. This release looks to be a promising start to what could be a constant flow of top-quality content from the artist that will most likely outdo all his other hits. 

Rap fans might also remember Macntaj for other notable songs like “Hood Burger,” which drew some flak online for similarities with another music video by an iconic musical artist. But following the release of that music video, Macntaj would go big and release another track and music video, “Love Me The Same,” which reached more than double the numbers that “Hood Burger” had, proving that he’s an artist that’s here to stay and will continue climbing up the rap ranks. 

Most notably, Macntaj has made a significant dent on platforms like YouTube and Spotify. He currently has over two million views collectively on YouTube. Moreover, he is still growing as he puts out top-tier music and music videos that continue to go viral. For instance, his recent video, “Motive,” also created with the support of Bloc Star Evolution, has already gathered more than 220,000 views after only three weeks.

“Stepped On” promises to be another good product as Macntaj continues to polish his music and identity over time. The artist looks to release his debut album soon, which will carry the title Big Bloc Meign. 

More than anything, Macntaj is an artist with a powerful resolve. His work ethic matches his talent, pooling the winning recipe for a successful music career.

Adversities and obstacles are always a part of one’s journey in life, but one’s reaction to the difficult moment determines success. Marie S. Hall is a woman who has taken a few nasty hits from life, but she didn’t stay down. Instead, she stood and learned to thrive, changing the trajectory of her life to become more intentional, understanding her words’ power, and valuing her self-worth to move from her fears to faith. Today, Marie is the founder and C.E.O. of RubyMac Learning Academy and Myrtle Tree Publishing. She is also an author, a transformational speaker, and a change agent, assisting others with becoming the best version of themselves.

Growing up, Marie experienced many childhood traumas, from molestation, domestic abuse, low self-esteem, and self-worth, to name a few. Still, instead of staying down, beaten, and broken, she stood tall, choosing to learn from her experience rather than letting it define her. Having overcome her traumatic experiences, Marie wanted to help others like her. Through firsthand experience, Marie understands that trauma can affect children’s academics and performance in school, deeming them at-risk youth.

She used her ministry, business, and educational background to weave in storytelling to deliver captivating tales to inspire others to triumph over their trials.

“As an educator and minister, I encounter people of all ages and walks of life that have experienced many different adversities, too. For example, some have experienced abandonment, abuse, and low self-esteem. These issues can manifest into feelings of unworthiness and become blockers in building trusting relationships. I knew that something had to change. Those issues can cause an individual to lose hope in their dreams. I’ve had many children and adults tell me they hated their lives and wish they could die, that they feel useless,” she explained.

Marie Hall works with children and individuals to develop their confidence, strengthen their knowledge and amplify their skills to impact the world. She began writing children’s books that would inspire and encourage African American children. In addition, her workshops focus on children’s social and emotional skills, time management, goal-setting, emotional intelligence, and other areas where there may be deficits. She also provides training and development for organizations that want to improve performance by building employee capacity.

Furthermore, she has had the privilege to impact many people’s lives through her ministry for over a decade. Marie has done transformational work with teens and young adult girls in group homes, mentoring adults living in shelters transition back into the workforce and has cultivated and mentored youth groups. “It’s a beautiful blessing to see God moving in the lives of those that I can touch. I love to empower people. I find joy in educating people as I help them find the strength to move from their fears and into new life. It’s all God guiding me as I provide the tools that will elevate them to their purpose,” she shares.

In the coming years, Marie S. Hall wants to continue using her voice and skills as a powerful tool to educate, elevate and empower children, teens, and other individuals, helping them transform their lives. She wants to own a state-of-the-art educational facility that will be the training grounds for educators and school districts and build capacity within organizations. The facility will also house an innovative, world-renowned private school focusing on developing globally-minded children to thrive and impact the world.

Considered to be a one-of-a-kind lifestyle venue, the ArkHAUS is fast becoming one of the most talked about trends in the country today as a result of its unique concept and amazing possibilities.

Right in the middle of the connected four vessels is a protected pool that completely upgrades anyone’s concept of the “work hard, play hard” adage. At first glance, the ArkHAUS looks like it is floating in water. CSTM HAUS designed it to actually be slightly above the water to make sure that the massive structure is protected from the impact of waves. It uses spuds to elevate the vessel three feet above the water. It is powered by solar roof deck awnings and fully electric propulsion. If anything, it is a reflection of the company’s values, which gives importance to people and technology.

Today, it is no secret that creating the right buzz around the launch of a music artist’s singles and albums greatly influences its outcome as it will keep both fans and critics anticipating the release of the sound and melody to come. To ensure that aspiring and established artists get the proper support and publicity for their music,  entrepreneurs Logan Simmons and Zach Conley of Volume Digital bring their creative twist to music marketing to create the right buzz to increase sales and promote artists’ personalities. 

When it comes to artist management and music marketing, Logan Simmons and Zach Conley of Volume Digital take the lead. Spearheading the full-marketing agency, Volume Digital as music marketers, Logan and Zach have unparalleled expertise in social media and influencer marketing that goes beyond promoting a piece of music to ensure it climbs up the chart in sales. In addition to creating the right momentum and increasing sales, they also help create a solid digital footprint for the artist or record label that can be leveraged upon for future success.  Players in the industry have acknowledged their stellar reputation as a one-stop shop for all marketing needs. They have worked closely with some of the most prominent enterprise brands, record labels, artists, independent artists and more.

Focused on eliminating the resellers or middlemen that resell the services of companies like Volume Digital to unsuspecting artists at an inflated price, Logan and Zach introduced “release-support based services,” aimed to assist aspiring artists in getting started on their career by providing the bulk of the companies’ services in-house directly to the artist through the agency’s internal team and digital network of highly competent music marketing professionals. This efficient and goal-oriented method gives artists a direct line to the company providing the service, ensuring a brilliant job is done.

Before running a successful business together, both Logan Simmons and Zach Conley have always had a knack for entrepreneurship, even as teenagers. Logan Simmons started his journey when he was only fifteen. He traveled across the country alongside his uncle to ‘toy-buying event where they would buy inventory from locals in cities across America and then list them on eBay. “These experiences taught me the importance of both sales and online marketing. Additionally, I learned the life-changing possibilities of working for yourself and being an entrepreneur as a whole,” he shared. 

On the other hand, Zach Conley started his career when he was fifteen. He worked as a digital marketing expert with multiple major record labels assisting their signed artists in developing and maintaining a digital footprint to help share their music and create organic buzz. So when the duo put their respective knowledge together to establish Volume Digital in late 2017, it did not take long to scale their agency to the tremendous position it occupies today as a marketing agency for the stars. 

In the coming years, Logan Simmons and Zach Conley want to keep building their business and helping artists reach the right audience. They want to provide their clients with self-service marketing automation systems using cutting-edge technology and provide a marketing platform that could help eliminate the need for a traditional agency or a record label.

Music is a non-stop endeavor, and regardless of how one decides to look at it, one conclusion we can all agree with is that music is life. Indeed, for both the artist and the listeners, the sound, beat, lyrics, and message of the song go a long way to shape the actions and reactions of the listeners and, in turn, shape the world. And considering how important music is, the environmental factor in the creative process is one aspect one cannot undermine. According to fast-rising LA-based singer and songwriter rgb, there is a need for artists to expose themselves to new cities and culture while at the same time understand that the world is a big place with endless inspiration ready to be found. Therefore, artists should explore these endless possibilities as he did with the sole purpose of finding their unique sounds and creating that hit and timeless song.  

rgb is a singer, songwriter, and performer from the Bay Area, Washington DC, and currently resides in Los Angeles, actively pursuing a music career. Music for rgb began when he was a kid. Like any other Asian American kid, he started with classical piano and slowly transitioned into jazz piano while in high school. Once he had found his footing in music, he dabbled into songwriting. For the next few years, he focused on bettering his skills, culminating in releasing his debut single titled “Game Over” on SoundCloud in 2018 under the moniker Red Green Blue.

Describing his childhood and musical influences, rgb pointed out that being raised in both San Francisco and Washington DC gave him a unique childhood experience. In addition, being exposed to both the East and West coasts of the United States present a broad range of personalities and cultures. This 100% has played a role in the development of rgb as an artist and as a man.

Many of the artists I have met over the years still represent the same town that they grew up in. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this, but it does present a bit of a limitation. Artists need to expose themselves to new cultures and new cities. The world is a big place with endless inspiration to be found; having moved around the United States as a boy, rgb has his personal experience that he displays through his music.

After years of honing his skills as an artist, and since the turn of the new year, rgb has been active on the scene, especially with his transition into electronic pop and pushing for commercial success. In January, he released his first single for the year, titled “Moon Cheese,” and quickly followed that up with the release of his new hit song “Diamond Eyes,” which is a testament to the evolution and growth of the young artist through the years since he burst on the scene.

He released “Diamond Eyes” on July 4, featuring R&B/electronic music artist Kid April from Austin, Texas. Since its release, the single, which has enjoyed massive airplay, could go down in history as rgb’s biggest single of all time because not only does the single feature an established artist, it also showcased another dimension to rgb’s artistry, lyricism, message, and versatility. The song, which has been described as an “absolute banger” in three weeks of release, has become a summer anthem, and daily the stream and airplay continue to increase without pause.

Although rgb is creating music for a global audience, he primarily targets a young demographic of Gen Z because they are the target and foundation of his movement of pioneering a new generation of genre-blending artists and music lovers.

There have been many rumors about Netflix’s highly anticipated prequel series The Witcher: Blood Origin that was announced in July 2020. While many of those rumors are pure speculation, some details about the cast have been officially announced by Netflix, and fans now have an idea of the actors to expect when the series starts shooting.

Star Trek: Discovery‘s Michelle Yeoh already signed up to be the lead cast member with The Witcher showrunner Lauren S. Hissrich teaming up with season 1 writer to create this highly anticipated spinoff. Netflix’s commitment to The Witcher franchise is so strong and evident from how quickly the production company gave the green light to the spinoff series. The company hopes that the series will create more memorable stories from the vast world of author Andrzej Sapkowski and leave the viewers spellbound and entertained.

According to reports from Deadline, the show is likely to start filming in August, and speculations indicate that it will be a long shoot accompanied by VFX work and post-production. The series is not expected to premiere anytime soon, but there’s the possibility of anything happening anytime. While the days are still early, we already confirmed Michelle Yeoh as one of the lead casts, and she’ll be playing the role of Scian. Sophia Brown has also joined the cast lineup as Élle, while Laurence O’Fuarain has been confirmed to play the role of  Fjall.

Aquaman star Jason Momoa has also been rumored to take a starring role, but that doesn’t seem likely to happen from the look of things. Star Trek: Discovery and Legend of the Ten Rings star Michelle Yeoh is the biggest name attached to The Witcher: Blood Origin. She was officially announced in July 2011 and confirmed to be playing the role of Scian, the last of a tribe of Elven nomads. The character looks like it will be a career-boosting role for Yeoh, so seeing how it plays out is one exciting thing that everyone is waiting to see.

Sophia Brown, who will be playing Éile, is replacing Queen & Slim star Jodie Turner-Smith, who turned down a role in The Witcher: Blood Origin because of a scheduling conflict. Laurence O’Fuarian already proved his mettle as a veteran on the hit series Game of Thrones and Vikings. He’s another cast that everyone looks forward to seeing. Other actors expected to join the cast include It’s A Sin’s star Mirren Mack playing Merwyn Michelle, Dylan Moran as Uthrok, Lenny Henny as Balor, Lizzie Annie as Zacaré and a host of other actors.

With the setting of Blood Origin and its timeline, there are likely to be more unknown and unfamiliar characters. A prominent part of the story to expect is the “Elder Races” that existed before humans got to the continent. The Elves are also expected to have a significant amount of screen time because of their importance in the Conjunction and the Elder bloodline’s origin.

Blood Origin is set more than a thousand years before the adventures of Geralt of Rivia, and it is set to take us back to an essential time in the history of the continent. The live-action series will be based on the origins of Witchers and the ancient Elven civilization before its fall.

Being recognized as one of the most promising talents in the entertainment industry is a highly coveted achievement, even more so for someone like David Murrietta Jr., who has only been in the business for a few years. Despite having a late start compared to his peers, the talented actor continues to show his prowess and proves that he is deserving of recognition and acknowledgment. 

The actor and social media influencer has been all over California and is originally from San Jose. While living in San Francisco, he dabbled in acting and participated in a few projects. However, he quickly fell in love with the craft and before long, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue his newfound passion. 

This decision to become a full-time entertainer came as a surprise to the people who knew him as it was quite a shift from his previous background in law enforcement and business. Nevertheless, his family showed immense support throughout this change. Their encouragement is one of the motivations that fuel the outstanding performer to become the best.

Despite not having a lot of theatrical training, the actor possesses an innate ability and talent for acting. He has worked on several films such as  Taps, Vicious Circle, and Land of the Haunted Dolls. He has also appeared on TV shows, including Sunset Glory: Doolittle’s Heroes and Grey’s Anatomy. In one of his most recent projects, he worked as a stunt performer in the highly-anticipated Marvel movie Black Widow.

When he is not working on film and TV sets, he films video blogs, more commonly known as vlogs, with his lovely wife, Alexandra Creteau. Together, they run the YouTube account Dalex Vlogs. The lifestyle channel has a wide range of content: from dating tips, travel stories, beauty advice to health and fitness. In total, their videos have been viewed more than 840,000 times. 

Just recently, in perhaps one of the most exciting developments in his life, the vlogger has finally married Alexandra, his soulmate and the love of his life. They tied the knot on May 8, 2021, in an intimate and private ceremony at Regan Beach in Lake Tahoe. However, the pair would love to share this important milestone with their family and friends. They intend to organize another wedding celebration in August of this year.

Aside from being passionate about his craft, this incredible personality is also an advocate for unity throughout the communities and the world. He believes that spreading love and positivity is crucial, especially during these trying times. David hopes that through his platform, he can show people the importance of peace and acceptance. 

When asked to share a message, he said, “Take a moment to listen to others, whether it be a friend, family member, partner, or a complete stranger. We have strayed so very far away from being united as one common human race. We are all brothers and sisters. We need to all come together and support one another, not spread negativity and hate.” Learn more about David Murrietta Jr. and get updates about his future projects by visiting his Instagram page and YouTube channel Dalex Vlogs.

The upcoming movie The Memory Scanner is set to ignite conversations and overhaul the American criminal justice system, and Alexandra Creteau is taking the spotlight playing the lead role of a Russian neuroscientist.

The story of The Memory Scanner revolves around the quest to “uncover wrongful death verdicts, attorneys that misuse the loophole of attorney-client privileges to hide the criminals, criminals that are free on the streets due to wrong verdicts, innocents that are behind the bar that never committed the crime, the jury, DNA and facial recognition system that has been broken, and massive court costs that the governments spend.”

The film aims to explore the possibility of placing microchips (electrodes) that will serve as memory scanners in the brains of criminals and terrorists, allowing the justice system to operate without a flaw as they obtain complete disclosure on their memory timelines. The supposed smart chips will also alert government authorities through signals before a criminal commits a crime, such as a massive shooting or destroying properties. By doing so, the justice system is freed from lengthy and costly trials in cases such as murder, rape, terrorism, espionage, and other high-profile cases.

Furthermore, the film also uncovers how smart chips can free the innocents who have been put behind bars for no reason. The Memory Scanner is intended to abolish the jury system and federal court by implementing a newer, more efficient system that allows the criminal justice system to get hold of the truth within minutes.

The Memory Scanner is currently in the final stages of its post-production, and lead actress Alexandra Creteau shared that she and the rest of the cast are ecstatic to show the sci-fi movie to the rest of the world.

Alexandra Creteau was born and raised in Chernivtsi, Ukraine, where she spent most of her childhood and eventually studied civil and criminal law. Alexandra was formerly part of the Team Ukraine National Karate Champion, where she obtained 13 medals and 21 diplomas. At 18, she moved to Russia and eventually to the United States at 21 to pursue her passion for acting and modeling.

Alexandra Creteau scored the lead role in The Memory Scanner right after she was booked for  the television show called The African Twist. On top of her budding acting journey, Alexandra is also continually growing her social media presence. The actress has over 320,000 followers on Instagram alone, and her Youtube channel, shared with her husband David Murrietta Jr., has over 9,000 subscribers and is growing every day. Dubbed as the power couple and known in the digital space for their channel’s name, Dalex Vlogs, David and Alexandra recently tied the knot in Regan Beach in Lake Tahoe. 

With her background as a karate champion, being a social media influencer, and the ability to speak Russian, Ukrainian, and English, Alexandra Creteau is indeed the total package. The actress and social media star continues to inspire her global community of fans and followers by showcasing the lifestyle of a dreamer who built a career from the ground up. Indeed, she is an artist to watch. Learn more about Alexandra Creteau on this site.

Confluence 1 (2021), Acrylic, upcycled fabric, spray paint, marble powder and other mixed media on canvas

Finding an incredibly talented and well-rounded painter can be few and far between. However, in a sea of artists aspiring to make a name, one gifted individual has managed to turn heads with his remarkable works—Vikash Jha.

He is an Indian-American contemporary artist and abstract expressionist best known for his use of vibrant colors, cross-cultural imagery, and multilayered painting techniques. This creator stands out as a highly skilled painter and a true man of the world, having lived in two continents and having both western and eastern cultural influences.

Having a well-rounded background has helped him understand and appreciate the bold expressionist techniques of many western greats as well as transcendental visual expressions of Indian contemporary greats. Incorporating these learnings with his own personality has given him an edge—a unique approach to content, individualistic style, and painting techniques. 

Another trait that makes this emerging artist exceptional is his passion for honing his craft and skills. He is always looking for ways to elevate his work and loves to learn about and experiment with new materials, mediums, and techniques. 

When asked to describe his creations, the artist, shared, “My works are often very textural, using a wide range of materials such as marble powder, sandglass beads, metal powders, scrap and discarded materials, cement, upcycled fabrics, and recycled materials that I could lay my hands on. I use palette knives, all kinds of paint brushes, scrubbers, and other materials to express my mind on my canvases.”

Due to his innate talent and consistent drive for excellence, Vikash Jha has seen a steady rise in his art career. Since 2017, his works have also been displayed in juried exhibitions at the Sotheby’s Fine Art auction house and the Oculus at the World Trade Center (both through MvVO Art) and several other galleries and prestigious venues in New York City.

Vikash Jha first moved to the United States about two decades ago to advance his career in the field of management consulting and financial services. He took specialized academic studies at Harvard and MIT, following his formal art and business education in India.  

Having expertise in both business and art is a testament to his well-rounded and versatile nature, which shows in his powerfully evocative masterpieces. Some might even liken him to one of today’s most celebrated artists, Jeff Koons who has a similar career background.

Despite some comparison, Vikash Jha is most definitely a one-of-a-kind creator who has a distinct creative style and now is starting to get his well-deserved recognition as the one to look out for in the art scene. 

Most recently, he bagged a prized critique through a lucky draw hosted by Penguin Random House. His work has impressed New York Magazine’s Senior Art Critic and author of How to Be an Artist, Jerry Saltz. The renowned Pulitzer-prize winning critic said of Vikash’s work, “You know a fair amount about art. Great sense of color…. internal light. Gets viewers engaged from far and….then draws them in… by working back the details. This is important… I think that if this is the least representative of your works, you are in great shape.”

The accolades that he has received sets the tone to a bright future that is in store for Vikash Jha. In the upcoming, he aims to become a celebrated global artist and provocateur. He also plans to create an art brand that consumer brands would love to be associated with. One day, his name will become one that gallerists would feel proud of, and collectors would feel fortunate to have his works in their private collections. 

To achieve all of  his goals, the highly skilled painter continues to create captivating works of art. As his success scales, he wishes to one day create a team of like-minded individuals who can support his creative journey as he expands to more business ventures and collaborations. 

Art collectors, enthusiasts and other interested parties should visit his upcoming solo show called Voyages of Reflections on Artsy’s online art auction marketplace in the MvVO Art Gallery between August 2 to 8, 2021. His Artsy page can be found on this link. Learn more about Vikash Jha and his works by checking out his official website and Instagram page.
