OK,....we are all well aware of the great and surprising year that Black Lion Entertainment Music Group had in 2015 garnering a total of 10 music awards in the areas of hip hop, R&B, House and Spoken Word. Even beginning 2016 nominated in 12 categoriees at the SCM Awards, scheduled for May 14, 2016 in Memphis, TN was a great accomplishment, considering the CEO's current situation, but some are beginning to question his next few moves.
DEPARTURES
To begin the year, new sensation Giovanni decided to transfer his talents to another company, which was a shocking and painful blow to Black Lion Entertainment Music Group. "I didn't even see that coming" said Wayne Jones, Chief Executive Officer; "that one blindsided me and the way I found out was very upsetting. But what can you do. It just goes to show that you can't please everyone and everyone may not see you as being what they want."
Also recently departing was long time Wayne Management Company client and B.L.E.M.G. artist Blak Pearl. "I'm very happy with her elevation and am glad she was able to connect with someone that can take her to her next level. She recently performed at Milk River, located in the downtown section of Brooklyn, NY and reviews said that her performance was one of the best of the evening. I wish her nothing but success." said the CEO. Keep in mind, she is still up for Female Rap Artist of the Year with the SCM Awards.
"I really and truly wish them the absolute best in their endeavors. They are truly talented artists that the world needs to hear."
JULIA
Originally scheduled to release her debut CD "BABY YOU GOT IT" on the Black Lion Entertainment Music Group Label, there was a last minute administrative difficulty that prevented the release of the CD. Although disappointed, it has not deterred the company nor the artist.
She has officially scheduled her debut CD to be released on Thursday, August 4, 2016. Wayne Jones has also scheduled and booked her to perform May 22, 2016 at Arlene's Grocery on the Lower East Side of New York City. Click the image below if you would like to purchase tickets.
THE PRESIDENT TAKES CHARGE
The success of B.L.E.M.G. has even sparked a fire under the President of Black Lion Entertainment Music Group, Synthia, "Blak Cheri", Robinson.
"I swear for God,, every time I turn around, she is amazing me more and more. She redesigned her whole image where she is corporate and appealing at the same time.", Said Wayne Jones. She redesigned her live performance and brought back her original producer, George Brown of Third Word Entertainment and George Brown Music Group. She also added the services of DJ Karpentar to her live performance which brought rave reviews at her performance at Arlene's Grocery in March 2016. She was recently given a small birthday party at the Headquarters of Black Lion Entertainment Music Group.
By clicking the image above, you can purchase tickets to her next live performance which will be in the Elmhurst section of Queens in New York City on April 28, 2016 at Blackthorn 51. Showtime begins at 7pmest.
EXPANSION
This is where it begins to surprise everyone,.....including Wayne.
"At the beginning of the year, I was looking for various ways to increase the brand of Black Lion Entertainment Music Group." Wayne Jones felt that B.L.E.M.G. was still under the shadow of its corporate entity, Wayne Management Company as a sub-division.
After finishing out his sponsoring term with Twizm Whyte Piece and Fat Cat Radio, Wayne Jones began negotiations with executives with Sportswire. An internet podcast/magazine dedicated to cover a variety of sports including WWE Events, NEFL (New England Football League) and other various topics.
The formation and launch of Black Lion Entertainment and Sports Network officially began on April 1, 2016; beginning with the launch of the new Sportswire podcast, which will eventually be anchoring the entire network with daily podcasts. Also having shows on the network is Dean Wild of Stay Blessed Productions showcasing Hip Hop and R&B music from the underground from the United States and Canada. Black Lion Entertainment Music Group artists will be considered for half time shows for the Connecticut Panthers of the New England Football Leage.
Also having his own show on the network is DJ D West. Popular mid day DJ from Knox Rocks Radio in Tennessee dubbed the "MIDDAY MOUTH OF THE UNDERGROUND"
"I am also working on Sunday programming on the Black Lion Entertainment and Sports Network geared specifically for spiritual purposes. Looking to have various ministers broadcast teachings on the network as well as various gospel music shows and podcasts."
"The network is one of a kind and it will cover just about every area you can think of. Along with my partner, Vinnie Vitti, we are not missing a beat on this new network. This is a great opportunity for the both of us and besides,......I couldn't think of a better way to increase the brand of Black Lion Entertainment Music Group."
At least the modesty hasn't changed with the success for the CEO.
