I've talking to a lot of my friends thinks getting in the music industry is easy. It easy if you have the right people that can help get there. I think having a really good support system help get into. Every artist has a family and friends that help get through the ups and downs. Just because you have a friend in the music industry doesn't mean they are going to help you. Depending on the person and if they have a good heart. If you the right people and right sound that people are willing to listen. Like for an example Nicki Manja. She came out with her music at the right time and produce music that was something unique and different. But not only she hooked up with young money which was a good move to make because she knew they were going to make her famous.
I believe is taking a diligent hard working individual to get where he or she want to be in the music industry. I really think people don't really take the time or the effort. To actually listen to the music and the story the artist is telling the audience. The artist know what you've been through and can relate to you as a person. I feel when people see and artist the media makes them overrated to the point you get sick and tried. Like Rhianna ever since she and chris brown broke up. All you hear is what she is wearing and what color did she die her hair. I mean I thought the music industry was about the music and not how some one looks or dresses. I really believe in what Jessie J says" in the song Price tag not all about the money is about the music and not videos hoes" I truly believe in what she says and I think people need to learn to pay attention.

Do you like the fact investers Buy the rights to the artist's Music?
In my personal opinion I think its ok for investors to invest in the artist. But not buy the rights I think it take away the ownership of music. If you have different thoughts post on my blog.

What is TED ideas?
Ted idea is a speaker that talks about enhancing your ideas and to make them global. How? Its called Crowd Accelerated Innovation he gave three examples the bigger the crowd builds new people, innovators commenter and spotters. The second is Light is a clear open of the crowd to understand their empowerment. Third is Desire need to work really hard to get big crowds. I think how Ted inspired the audience is he showed anything is possible once you your mind into your idea. I helps me build a deeper understand of my dream and my goals in life. As long as I put hundreds of hours in what my idea is and enhance those ideas. My Idol is Beyonce Knowles ever since she was apart of Destiny's Child I've seen evolved from the group to her single albums. She took chance and risk on her new sound because she want something different and to engage a new crowd. I think that what an artist is a risk taker but you put time into your work and you get better at it. But she came up with ideas and she enhance them and to see what was the crowd reaction. If you want her over seas tour on DVD you know what I'm talking about when you watch behind the scenes. I'm even more inspired to go out there to became my own artist and also to inspire others not only in music but in anything they want to achieve in life.

What is RIAA?
RIAA is Recording Industry Association is an organization that supports and promotes creative artist. The organization also protects artist hard work that they put in to the music. But since the digital era has advance over the last few years artist have been losing money from people stealing over the internet. The organization does there best to keep from being stolen but people have gotten around the security. Once you become a member of RIAA you create a manufacture or distribute approximately 85% all legitimate recorded music produced and sold in the US. RiAA mission is to work to protect the intellectual property and rights and the first amendment right of artist.
RiAA organization has thousand's of artist all over the country that are members. In order to get into the organization there is an application process and it take up to 45 days to let you know weather you become a member or not. It relates to what I want to do because I love music. I want to have my own label with my name and to protect music from being stolen just like my organization. The organization is important to me because artist spend hundreds dollars or more to get there name out. Its not fair the people wont appreciate the artist and actually buy the song on itunes or go to a target and get their CD. I support so many artist I go and buy there music because they put there all in making the song or the beats. It take time and energy to put together a really good CD.

[/caption]Rising hip-hop artist and producer, J Noize, has teamed up once again to support Kids Off The Block, a charity dedicated to helping Chicago’s underprivileged youth excel. On June 12, Kids Off The Block (K.O.B) is hosting their 1st Annual Safe Summer BBQ located at Palmer Park in Chicago from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. The Safe Summer BBQ is promoting peace to local teenagers, along with presenting them possible job opportunities and safe summer programs within their community. The goal is, keeping “kids off the block” and inspiring them into positive directions, despite the unfortunate living conditions they may face.
“Everyone knows how hard it is for Chicago youth right now. So everything Diane and K.O.B. are putting together is very helpful to our children and our communities, “states J Noize. “I’m happy to be involved. It’s not just a neighborhood BBQ and performances. It’s also an event to unite us, while promoting stop the violence and showing the youth of our city the many ways we can fellowship with one another.” J Noize will be dishing up the delicious food for the kids and giving a special performance at the BBQ.
Last Thanksgiving J Noize supported Kids Off The Block for their “Feed The Teen Event,” where he served the holiday dinner to almost 1,000 neglected teenagers in the area. Sad story, but a true struggle for the local neighborhood kids as the Chicago teen killings and poverty has really effected the community. K.O.B’s Founder Diane Latiker touches on J Noize’s involvement stating, “We are grateful to J Noize for support of our mission to save a generation! He has shown that he is a music artist who not only cares, but believes that he can and will make a difference through his music in lives of the youth we service.”
The Soul Eclectic label’s artist, J Noize, has released two new singles simultaneously; “Every Place I Go” featuring Heat Fam’s rappers Yung Nef and D-illa, plus, “Find Him” a soulful track featuring well-known singer/songwriter and actress Terry Dexter. Both tracks are from J Noize’s debut album Young, Gifted & Black (Y.G.B) set to release later this year.
