B.O.B is a nominee for 5 Grammy's!!!!



Sometimes it pays off to be different! B.O.B is a native from Atlanta, GA and is up for five Grammy awards! He is in the running for Record Of The Year, Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, and Best Rap Song for "Nothin' On You" (the first with Philip Lawrence, Ari Levine, Bruno Mars, and Mike Wilson, the second with Bruno Mars, and the third with Philip Lawrence, Ari Levine, and Bruno Mars); Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals for "Airplanes, Part II" (with Eminem & Hayley Williams); and Best Rap Album for The Adventures Of Bobby Ray.
Check out this video of B.O.B expressing his gratitude on getting nominated for the five awards! 

Honestly this news is not a shock to me, because he is just an outstanding artist, performer and lyricist. He came into this industry full throttle with no chaser and he is doing nothing but moving up. With on only being in this industry since 2006 he really has made an impact on this industry with his different sound. If you did not know, he was signed to Atlantic Records through Jonsin’s Rebel Rock Entertainment and Grand Hustle label, because of his song “Cloud 9” in 2006! He continued to work hard and not give up on his dream. B.O.B is not conforming to the standards of this industry and more artists should be like him. I do not see him going any other way but up.

B.O.B stated, that he is really focused on painting a picture of himself as a musician and an artist and not just a rapper. However if you want to know more about this artist just got to http://www.bobatl.com


If you know good music make sure you support this artist and tune in to the 53rd Annual Grammy awards. B.O. B will be performing, so you will not want to miss it. The show will air on Sunday, February 13th, 2011 on CBS at 8pm (ET/PT)

Lil Romeo is President of No Limit Forever Records???



There is no limit or boundaries for the Miller family! Lil Romeo once again turns some heads in the news, and it is not for basketball or acting but music! Hip Hop legend Percy (Master P) Miller really made some noise with his Record Label No Limit in the late 1990’s. Coming from the ghetto of Louisiana, Master P was no stranger to the struggle. 

Scoring a huge distribution deal in 1995 with Priority Records was just the beginning of his success.With being able to keep all ownership of his music he really came in the game with a business mind. He sold over 75 million in records sales and was name one of the highest top 40 paid entertainers in The Forbes magazine. However as time went on No Limit Records began to fall and finally closed for good in 2003.

I am personally excited to see what this UCLA college graduate has in store for this up and coming Label!



It is now time for Lil Romeo to fill some big shoes and take off where is father Master P left with No limit Records, Romeo has teamed up with his brother Valentino (Vice President of No Limit Forever), his uncle Silkk The Shocker (COO -Chief Operating Officer") and cousin Black Don (Senior VP of A&R).

According to Romeo the new Label No Limit Forever, will focus on digital content that can be released to the world. I guess they will not follow what Master P did in the 90’s and sale music out their cars! Lol

NO LIMIT FOREVER IS BACK FOR GOOD!!!!
Check out this video, they going ham!





Well I am proud of the No Limit Crew for coming back and making a change. They have change their whole focus and will be pushing more music that is positive. The company has a lot in store for the year 2011 and there is no limit on what they will be doing.



Check out this exclusive interview with Master P and Lil Romeo!
