All the Winners are signed with Black Lion Entertainment Music Group


Wayne Jones, Chief Executive Officer of Black Lion Entertainment Music Group, is making a statement and putting everyone on notice that they are serious and are here to stay.  



In 2013, just before the launch of the label, Farrogoummo was the first Wayne Management Company client to win a music award when he and his HBOYZ team member Million Dolla Ram won an X-Poz-Ing Music Award for their song WE WORKING.

2015 has been a remarkable and over-achieving year for the small independent label from the heart of Brooklyn.  Although the offices of Wayne Management Company and Black Lion Entertainment Music Group had to relocate to the Bedford Stuyvesant area temporarily, it has not slowed down the domination from the label.  A total of 6 music awards have come from the label in the 22 month of its existence.


Wayne executive produced the label's 2nd mixtape WE ARE COMING and released it on Christmas Eve of 2014.  2 months after being released from the hospital batting prostate cancer and paralysis.  The mixtape grabbed everyone's attention and praise and now, has the awards to prove it.  WE ARE COMING was voted the Best Hip Hop Album by Poze Productions' X-Poz-Ing Music Awards and then they started to pour in.




Super group RAREBREED was the first individual artist to win an award from the mixtape.  Their smash hit WE ON IT took the underground by storm and was voted the Best Hip Hop song for the X-Poz-Ing Music Awards  One month later, They also turned around and won the Akademia Music Award for Best Hip Hop Song.  Currently, the song is on heavy rotation on 10 radio stations worldwide, and now is negotiating with 5 more to have the song on rotation.



Also winning awards this year was the President of Black Lion Entertainment Music Group, Ms. Synthia "Blak Cheri" Robinson for her original song, MY LOVE IS RAW, which was also off of the WE ARE COMING Mixtape.  She then turned around and won an Akademia Music Award for her rendition of Evelyn Champagne King's SHAME for Best Cover Song.



A month after signing on with Black Lion Entertainment Music Group, new R&B/Latin/Pop artist GIOVANNI let it be known that his skills are not to be played with when in October 2015, he won the Akademia Music Award for Best EP.


In a recent statement, Wayne Jones stated, "This is just the beginning.  With the consulting agreement with KT Borderline as well as the development of Sweet Tee Ali; we got many more plans with a lot of new artists.  We have just scratched the surface and I'm no longer going to be modest about the talent that this label represents."  That most definitely sounds like a ROAR in the jungle to me.
