UNDERGROUND ARTIST PROFILE
They’ve been compared to the Fugees, yet others would swear they’re straight up Reggae dance hall. No wait, Reggae pop? No, no, no, they’re jazz/R&B. So what do you get when you put all these elements together? A new band called West Bank with a flavor so tight they defy definition. “We want to create a whole new sound, always with that Reggae vibe,” says lead band member, Joe West. The group is “a musical bank of talent that represents the West Indies as well as the whole Western hemisphere.” West Bank has a sound like no other. Just when you think you know their sound, they’ll hit you with another cut and take you in a whole new direction, the next cut being just as tight as the last. And no matter your specific taste in Reggae, you’re sure to enjoy every one. Relevant, fun, and fresh, their lyrics possess a timeless appeal and reflect the cultural richness that is the Caribbean. Even their dance hall cuts are anything but typical. Audiences will bounce to their beats and vibe with their message long after they’ve left the clubs. West Bank is destined to connect with audiences for many generations to come. -westbankmusic.net |
SponsorsIn the Spotlight !
Kanye West was, reportedly, banned from attending/performing at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards ceremony - hence Mr. West's absence from accepting the Best Rap Duo/Group with Vocals Award he shared with Jay-Z and Rihanna. Granted Kanye has been branded as a "troublemaker" when it comes to award shows, the paparazzi, and the media.

In Haiti's capital city of Port-Au-Prince, thousands of bodies line debris cluttered streets, and the presidential palace lay in ruins, as well as the city's main prison,hospitals, schools, and homes.
Anyone who knows Rikki Rincon can attest to his drive and determination. After more than 20 years in "the business" Rincon - a globally conscious, persistent, and committed publicist - was able to overcome a city mindset that did not always embrace diversity.
Another example of how we love to tear down our American heros.
Generally, I like to reserve my opinions for those who seek them. However with the current controversy surrounding golf superstar Tiger Woods, I felt compelled to voice (or at least write) my amazement and contempt. After witnessing mistress number eight, 10, 14 (Hell, I don't know. I'm beginning to lose count) cry on television networks CNN, HLN, and again on MSNBC, I thought out loud: Is she crying. What in the world? Does she really think she is a victim? To be fair, there are several victims of Mr. Woods reckless behavior, and it is definitely not mistress-of-the- hour (insert name here___________). by Gustavus Betts
