El Bosso: The Passion-Driven Artist Who Faced Adversities and Rose Triumphantly

Artist Weekly Staff on June 13, 2021

Anyone can dream of becoming a musician, but only a few passion-driven ones can transform these seemingly far-reaching visions into reality.

Although everyone is free to dream and become a powerhouse in the music scene, it bears mentioning that the highly competitive nature of the music industry breeds great challenges and insurmountable obstacles designed to pluck out those who pursue it faint-heartedly. For an aspirant to succeed, one must go all-out to secure a position at the summits of an intricate trade. As someone who has faced countless battles and conquered them, El Bosso sheds light on the significance of passion, perseverance, and dedication as determining factors in achieving success.

El Bosso, born Bryan Jones, is an independent artist who is not afraid to go the extra mile in order to cement his reputable standing at the summits of a cutthroat industry. Countless times he was tested, dissuading him from pursuing his dream as an artist. However, his passion for the craft transcended boundaries, encouraging him to realize his potential with a persevering spirit and a dedicated heart.

Raised by a Mother and Grandmother whose love for music exceeded limitations, El Bosso developed a strong affinity towards rhythm and beats. As a child, he would often listen to his favorite songs played by his grandmother. As time went by, he developed an unparalleled knack for the craft after being surrounded by friends who are equally passionate about music. For this reason, this emerging power player decided to build a career as an upcoming artist in the industry.

Throughout his budding career, El Bosso carved a path in the realms of music and entertainment on his own. From creating heartfelt songs to performing in clubs and events, El Bosso is slowly cementing his reputation across the industry with grace and finesse. With the help of his tenacity, Bosso was able to break barriers and move forward, elevating his position at the summits of success.

Needless to say, El Bosso has managed to reach impressive heights with his talents, as well as passion and dedication towards his craft. However, he suffered from a heart attack which took a toll on his musical process. Additionally, his family encountered an unfortunate incident that delayed Bosso’s plans to climb the music industry’s pinnacle. This almost discouraged him from continuing his pursuits, but Bosso was determined to translate his goals into reality. Today, Bosso has released two singles, “10AM” and “F%#k You,” and two EPs, “Bosso” and “Abundance.” He is also working on an upcoming project entitled “In Bosso We Trust.”

As can be gleaned from his journey, El Bosso would not have climbed the summits of a cutthroat industry had it not been for his drive to succeed. Topped with a passionate and persevering attitude, it comes as no surprise how this power player emerges as one of the most sought-after artists across the realms of music and entertainment. As he continues to stand at the forefront of his goals, Bosso hopes to inspire others to chase their dreams and rise above.

Superstar Rapper Polo G’s Journey From Kid in the Hood to Billboard’s Chart-Topping Artist

Artist Weekly Staff on May 4, 2021

Polo G’s song Rapstar skyrocketed to No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100 songs chart only a week after it was released, and it is currently maintaining its momentum. Produced by Columbia Records, Rapstar gained 40.3 million streams in the United States alone and sold over 2,400 downloads by April 22. The song also attracted three million radio airplay. Rapstar’s current status places Polo G at a higher league, making the single one of his most notable phenomena to date.

Rapstar features Polo G’s story of becoming a superstar rapper. It features the exhausting process the artist went through to reach his goals and how he overcame insecurities along the way. In an interview with Complex, the rapper said, “It’s about the ups and downs of this lifestyle,” referring to the life of a celebrity. “You know you can be winning, and even though all of the good shit that’s happening, you can still have those emotional battles,” he added. Rapstar became a monumental success, trending No. 1 on YouTube within its first 24 hours of release.

Polo G previously told the press that he wrote everything he wanted to accomplish on a vision board at the beginning of his career. One of his goals was to create a chart-topping hit on the Billboard Hot 100. Despite the massive success the superstar rapper is experiencing today, reaching his goals did not happen overnight.

Born Taurus Tremani Bartlett, Polo G’s career began in 2018 when he landed his first record deal after gaining attention from the millions of streams his track called Gang With Me obtained on SoundCloud. Polo G kept the momentum by releasing more greetings such as Welcome Back, Neva Cared, and Finer Things, which quickly gained millions of views in the latter half of 2018. But before he found his way to music, Polo G struggled to overcome the lifestyle he had in the hood.

In May of 2018, Polo G was facing multiple arrests for selling weed and selling cars. After seeing how his struggles reflected other kids from his hometown Chicago, the rapper wanted to amplify the emotions of his upbringing and shed light on the stories of Chicago kids like himself who have been exposed and wounded by their environment.

Polo G was raised in a humble home in Marshall Field Garden Apartments, one of the most impoverished housing projects in Chicago. He described his upbringing as impoverished from all material things and that his parents, who married young, were learning things as they go. Despite their family’s lack of financial stability, his mother aspired to great things for him after realizing that he was articulate and well-spoken even at a young age.

“It was a really humble beginning. It was a family sense. Although a lot of things go on, we’d still show love off the strength of our parents, etc. I was seeing the typical things every Chicago kid sees but more up close and personal. You see the average things: drug dealings, drama, violence, things of that sort. I was just maneuvering, trying to survive, becoming a product of my environment, but also being able to quickly pull myself away from that,” Polo G shared in an interview.

Today, after overcoming the hood, Polo G wants to set an example to other Chicago kids who have been exposed to violence, drugs, gangs, and other challenging circumstances through his vivid storytelling. Polo G currently lives with his son Tremani.

Artist Weekly Staff on May 4, 2021

Image source: Glamour

With his chart-topping and award-winning songs, Thomas Rhett is one of the most notable icons in today’s country music scene. His captivating lyrics often leave fans eager to learn the narrative behind his music. The country star further intrigued global fans when he shared that his recent album, which topped this week’s new releases, is his most “personal” creation yet.

The country singer is dropping his new album called Country Again: Side A this month, and he revealed that the songs spring from deeply personal experiences and emotions in his life. Thomas Rhett has never shied from revealing his personality through his music, but the songs in his recent album feature raw stories and aspirations. One of which is the song called To The Guys That Date My Girls, which is the country singer’s ode to his three daughters Willa, Ada, and Lennon.

Thomas Rhett shared in an interview, “I was riding around with a buddy of mine from Charleston in Nashville about a one year and a half ago, and we were just talking… about that whole perspective from the dad, being like what would you say to that person? What would you say to the guy who came up to your door, ‘Hey, I’m here to take your daughter on a date.’ Like, are you gonna be the real tough dad? Are you gonna be the dad who invites him in for coffee? Like which kind of version are you going to be?”

“This [song] is kind of like a rough draft of a letter that I kind of felt like things a guy would need to know when you come over to my house to pick up one of my daughters for the first time,” the country singer added. To The Guys That Date My Girls speaks to fathers who are particularly anxious about the inevitable time when their daughters would begin to date and eventually marry someone to create their own family. The song is also said to be “making grown men cry.”

Country Again: Side A will also feature other songs such as Want It Again, Growing Up, and his recent single What’s Your Country Song. The album will also include Heaven right Now, Where We Grew Up, More Time Fishin, Ya Heard, Country Again, Put It On Ice, and Blame It On a Backroad. Furthermore, with the release of his new masterpieces, Thomas Rhett gained the ACM Male Artist of the Year award.

“Country Again: Side A is everything I wanted to say when I was 19 years old but hadn’t lived enough to know how to say any of those things yet,” Thomas Rhett said in a press release. “It’s about the crazy journey that took me out into the world over the last ten years and ultimately brought me back home, more centered and content than ever, with a deep understanding for what’s important in life. I’ve had a blast sharing some of these songs in their acoustic form during quarantine and am blown away by the reaction the fans have already shown.”

Country Again: Side A will be available on April 30. Thomas Rhett is also eyeing the release of the album Side B later in the year.

Artist Weekly Staff on May 4, 2021

Image source: Allure

Billie Eilish has caused a stir in the music industry with the launching of her debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? in 2019, which reached the top 15 in the United States, UK, Canada, and Australia. Since then, the American singer and songwriter has won seven Grammy awards, two Guinness World Records, three MTV Video Music Awards, and many more notable accolades. This year, Billie Eilish brought exciting news to her global fans with the announcement of her second album, to be released in July 2021.

The Happier Than Ever Album showcases Billie Eilish’s growth as an artist. The 19-year-old singer even intrigued fans about her metamorphosis by releasing a photo of her new blonde shag cut on Twitter. Despite the change in her appearance, the artist still bears the air of familiarity, assuring fans that her upcoming songs will just be as relatable and memorable as those in her first album.

Billie Eilish has been teasing fans about her new project for months. She also captured the attention of music lovers across the globe with her genuine statements about the upcoming album on her social media platforms. On Instagram, the singer wrote: “This is my favorite thing I’ve ever created, and I am so excited and nervous and eager for you to hear it. I can’t even tell you. I’ve never felt so much love for a project than I do for this one. Hope you feel what I feel.”

Songs in Happier Than Ever are written by Billie Eilish together with her brother Finneas O’Connell. The songwriter and musical collaborator has also been instrumental in the success of her first album. With Finneas on board, Eilish aims to take listeners down a tranquil journey through music. The singer-songwriter has already given fans hints of what to expect with the soft, beige, monochromatic teaser videos she posted on multiple online platforms. The theme of the new album is in contrast with the dark and almost horror-like vibes of her debut album.

Happier Than Ever was recorded during the COVID-19 lockdown, Billie Eilish told Stephen Colbert in an interview on Late Night. The singer shared that the songs are inspired by the challenging events of the past year, but they don’t necessarily revolve around the pandemic. Furthermore, Eilish told Colbert on the show, “I don’t think I would’ve made the same album, or even the album at all if it weren’t for COVID. That doesn’t mean it’s about COVID at all, it’s just that, when things are different in your life, you’re different. That’s just how it is. So, I have to thank COVID for that, and that’s about it.”

The pop star also announced that a new single from the upcoming album would be available on April 29, giving fans a taste of the 16-song album to be released later in the summer. Apple Music tracklist also revealed that the album would include songs entitled Billie Bossa Nova, my future, Oxytoxic, Lost Cause, and NDA.

Icy Girl: Saweetie Taps Into the No. 1 Spot Dominating with Hit Singles

Artist Weekly Staff on May 4, 2021

Image source: USA Today

Anyone who has been on social media over the past year, especially during the pandemic, could not have missed the spot of sunshine that is Saweetie. The rapper dominates social media with her massive presence of over 17 million followers across Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok and her catchy single and samples of 90’s hip-hop classics.

Following her landmark success and establishment as a rap artist in 2020, Saweetie, whose real name is Diamonté Harper, is riding the wave to fame and more success as her song titled “Best Friends” featuring Doja Cat peak at the third spot on the top 10 hits on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.

The song “Best Friends” solidifies Saweetie’s position as a rhythmic radio favorite as it hits the No. 1 position on Billboard Rhythmic Airplay Chart after gaining 9% in plays. Thanks to the impressive body of work, the LA-based rapper became the fifth female rapper to have three songs peak on the No. 1 spot of the Rhythmic Airplay chart. Nicki Minaj and Cardi B have eight songs each, Megan Thee Stallion 4, and Iggy Azalea 3.

Although reaching the peak spot for the first time, Saweetie is familiar with hitting the top 10 spots of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs before she recorded “Best Friends.” In 2019, the hit single, “My Type,” landed on the No. 10 spots of Hot R & R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and was the Rhythmic Airplay charts leader.

Her third hit to make it the lead was “Back to the Streets,” featuring Jhene Aiko. In 2020, the rising star ascended the No. 9 positions with “Tap In” and almost made it to the top of the Billboard Rhythmic Airplay Chart again as the song peaked on the No. 2 spots. Beyond her undisputed solo success as a talented artist, the West Coast rapper has collaborated with several artists in the industry, such as Dua Lipa and Jhene Aiko. Doja Cat, Post Malone, DaBaby, Post Malone, City Girls, e.t c.

Not all roses, the “Icy Girl” rapper was once at the end of online bullying after she fumbled a freestyle session during an appearance on Hot 97, and one of the radio hosts described her as “basic.” After the session, her social media were filled with angry comments shaming her rap skills and insulting her. She admitted to “Cosmopolitan” that the incident traumatized her, and she has since adopted a hands-on approach to her songs, co-producing the beats.

With plans to dominate the hip-hop music scenes for a long time, Saweetie recently released her seven-song EP, titled “Pretty Summer Playlist: Season 1,” getting her fans ready in anticipation of her debut album, currently titled “Pretty B—- Music.”

Aside from music, the 27-year-old rapper is a philanthropist to the core. She launched her Icy Baby Foundation, a non-profit organization that aims to support low-income communities and help with educational support.

To learn more about Saweetie and her upcoming album, visit her official website. You can also listen to her songs via Soundcloud and follow her on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook to keep updated with all the juicy tidbits.

Justin Bieber Reigns Supreme on Billboard Charts

Artist Weekly Staff on May 4, 2021

Source: official website

Justin Bieber is a forerunner at the top of his career, continuously setting the trend of excellence with each track and album. The R&B singer has once again secured a spot on the Billboard charts – this time, with his first spiritual album, titled “Freedom.”

Since its release on Easter Sunday, April 4, the album containing six songs became fans favorites and earned 7,000 equivalent album units, according to data curated by MRC Data, and peaked at the No. 3 positions of Billboard’s Top Christain Albums.

A celebrated pop superstar, Justin Bieber is a multi-talented Canadian singer and songwriter. He pursued music from a young age taking part in a local competition where he came second place. After his mother recorded and uploaded a YouTube clip of her son performing, Justin went viral going from an unknown, untrained singer to a budding pop superstar with a big-time record deal with Usher within two years.

Acknowledged as a legendary vocalist with a unique style and sound, Justin made history as the first solo artist to have four singles hit the Top 40 before releasing a debut album. In 2009, his album, “My World,” went platinum in several countries. Fresh with ideas, Justin released “My World 2.0” in 2010, delighting his loyal fans with ten new songs.

In 2011, he ended the year on a perfect note, dropping the hit single “Never Say Never” with the holiday album “Under the Mistletoe.” He again dominated the charts with “Purpose” in 2015, selling millions of records in the US before the year ended.

In 2017, he carved his name in stone once again in a remix collaboration with Luis Fonsi for the song “Despacito.” Upon its release, a hit and fan favorite, “Despacito,” broke the record for most weeks at the number one position on the Top 100. In 2020, the pop star broke another record when his album, “Changes,” made him the youngest solo artist to have seven albums reach the top spot on the Billboard Hot 200, claiming a position once held by Elvis Presley.

With chart-topping hits year after year, Justin Bieber has once again claimed the leading spot on the Billboard 200 chart, with his tenth studio album, “Justice,” making it his eighth album to peak at No. 1 on the charts. The album “Justice,” which was released on March 18 via Raymond Braun/Def Jam, displaced the chart domination of Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous: The Double Album, which spent ten consecutive weeks in a row, all from its debut, at No. 1.

A hot mix of lyrics, sound and style, “Justice” gives credence to Justin Bieber’s talent and versatility as an artist as the album scored its second nonconsecutive week atop the Billboard charts. The album becomes his first multi-week No. 1 album since his 2010 album “My World 2.0,” which spent four consecutive weeks.

Listen to the album and decide if “Justice” was done. Learn more about the chart-topping hitmaker Justin Bieber on Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Spotify or his official website.

Upcoming Artist MASS DEMP Amplifies Music Journey, Shares Plans for 2021 and Beyond

Artist Weekly Staff on April 16, 2021

For someone who grew up with music his entire life, Masterson Ursem Dempsey, better known for his brand MASS DEMP feels that music is embedded in his DNA, rooted in the deepest corners of his soul. This 2021, the artist is ready to break out of his shell and dominate the music industry by storm.

MASS DEMP was born on November 18, 1992. He is originally from Cleveland, Ohio, home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a city that has contributed significantly to the evolution of music. But after his father passed because of various addictions, the artist moved to Tampa, Florida, with his mother. Amid all the challenges and the changes in his environment, music became a fortress where he can be himself.

The artist has been performing since the early age of three. He has always displayed his love for the arts, jumping from one genre to another until he finally found his unique sound. His diverse experiences also influence his desire to merge genres together and encapsulate the true spirit of music. MASS DEMP intentionally aims to appeal to masses of people from all walks of life, regardless of the generation they belong to.

In 2000, MASS DEMP attended a live concert by Carlos Santana. The experience impacted him profoundly and fueled his desire to also conquer stages and captivate audiences through the power of music. Simultaneously, he had the drive for sports. But even with his promising future as a player for the Berkeley Preparatory High School football team and a member of the track team, MASS DEMP still found a stronger longing for a profession in music.

With an ear for the perfect beat and a unique way with words, MASS DEMP became a hip-hop artist, and he is one to watch. His previous experience as a DJ also allows him to connect and entertain multiple audiences. Even in his high school and college graduation at Saint Leo University, where he was chosen to deliver the valedictorian address, MASS DEMP chose a nonconventional way to send his message—rap. The way he commanded the stage with thousands in the audience amazed even Tampa’s Mayor at the time, Mr. Bob Buckhorn.

After what he calls the metamorphosis stage of his life, fate finally brought him to build the brand MASS DEMP from the ground up. His first album was produced by his collegiate alumni, Banger Beats, who had a humble studio in his apartment. From the makeshift studio came his first song called “Wintroduction Make Way.” Eventually, with the success of his first single, the artist persevered to release another song called “Goodtimes.” The track aims to lift people’s spirits during the pandemic.

In 2020 alone, MASS DEMP released two 10-track albums, Mass Bangers and Wild Awaiting. He proudly shares that 2021 will yet again be another fruitful year for his career. The artist has previously collaborated with big-name artists such as Forgiato Blow, Bryson Gray, and Famous Kid Brick. This year, his songs will feature prominent artists such as Bezz Believe and Caskey.

“Since music is my only option for a career, with no real acceptable plan B, I will go to the farthest limits and work harder and with more dedication than most,” said MASS DEMP. “My love for music and want to make my own distinct sound is because I plan to leave behind a vast catalog of music to be remembered by and celebrated for when I no longer am physically here on this Earth,” added the artist.

Besides releasing more music in the coming months, MASS DEMP also plans on taking his brand further by launching various merchandise on his website. Zooming in to five years, the artist plans on touring across the United States and becoming a solid household name. To learn more about MASS DEMP, visit his Instagram.
