New York based artist, Josh "IAMJOSHSTONE" Stone, presents his latest single "GameTime", produced by Heatmakerz. Fresh off of his 2022 album Therapy Sessions (listen to the album), "GameTime" comes on the heels of his 2021 single/video release "Magic" featuring Pnb Relly, St. Rose, and fellow New York City rapper Jim Jones (watch the video). The protege of Public Enemy's Chuck D, Stone is the CEO of his own label Real Vibez Only Inc. Artistically, he is inspired by many great artists such as Dr. Dre, Kanye West, Nipsey Hussle, Eminem, and of course his mentor Chuck D. He describes his sound as hip-hop and pop-influenced. Stone had this to say about "GameTime", “I created "GameTime" with the intention of making something that would make people feel an emotion, an intensity, a feeling and a vibe to capture. I created it as if I was playing a sport what I would want to hear to motivate and pump me up before a game”.

Maryland emcee and Creative Minds founder Jerrod Bowen presents the Unscene productions-directed music video for "Sound Odyssey", the Keylow & Physical Graffiti-guested lead single from Bowen's new album Thelonious, named after the jazz pianist Thelonious Monk. Thelonious also features guest appearances from Mr. Ruckus, Crown Vic, & Klassic Soul, all representing the Creative Minds brand. The entire album is produced by Washington, D.C. beatsmith K-Murdock, who fuses golden-era sounds with live instrumentation. Murdock also produced Bowen's debut album Days Of Grace (Spotify). "Sound Odyssey" is named after a record store in Bowen's hometown of Ocean City and interpolates the jazz classic "Summertime", as the lead single of an album filled with nods to the golden era of hiphop which K-Murdock calls "a labor of love". Thelonious is out now on Creative Minds LLC.

San Diego-born, Oakland-bred rapper G. Battles presents the Battle Axe Media-directed music video for "I Love A Real Woman", featuring Aloe Jo'el with production by Yogic Beats.

Now residing in Las Vegas, his music has been licensed for television shows on FOX and Showtime; on The Pitch, Shameless and in the film The Hot Flashes. Battles' single "Night Of Your Life" was recently featured on the CBS TV show "The Good Fight!" and Battles also made a quick appearance in Straight Outta Compton. Battles says his new song was written "to show my appreciation for women and to encourage love between the women and men of this generation, not separation. With it being Women's History Month, I felt it was appropriate to be released in honor of this moment in time." "I Love A Real Woman" is out now on Blak Hart Music / Empire Distribution.

The artist, DJ, producer, award-winning actor, director and Purplehaus founder born Balthazar Getty is the son of German artist Gisela Getty and John Paul Getty III. Balthazar entered the mainstream via his role in 1990's Lord Of The Flies, going on to star in David Lynch classics like Lost Highway and the 2017 resurrection of Twin Peaks. Countless DJ gigs around the globe and a string of Purplehaus releases featuring everyone from rap legends Wu-Tang Clan to Latin superstar Asdru Sierra set the stage for the 2018 introduction of his animated alter ego Balt Getty, which first appeared on single “Porsche” (watch the music video) followed by “Retail Therapy”, which attracted Riff Raff for its official remix (Spotify). Balt's silver-haired, gold-grilled, face-tattooed animated avatar takes center stage in the "Crack Baby" video, which comes on the heels of Balt's self-directed music video for "Ugly" (Youtube) and "Sad Boy" (Youtube). "We set out to create the first ever animated mixtape," Balt says about his new project. "The theme is anod to growing up in The Bay during that era."

Balt Getty presents the self-directed music video for "Ugly", his latest video release off of the Purplehaus Records Sad Boy album (listen to the album). The artist, DJ, producer, award-winning actor, director and Purplehaus founder born Balthazar Getty is the son of German artist Gisela Getty and John Paul Getty III. The "Ugly" clip comes on the heels of visuals for his previous single from album Sad Boy also titled "Sad Boy" (watch the music video on Youtube). Balthazar entered the mainstream via his role in 1990's Lord Of The Flies, going on to star in David Lynch classics like Lost Highway and the 2017 resurrection of Twin Peaks. Countless DJ gigs around the globe and a string of Purplehaus releases featuring everyone from rap legends Wu-Tang Clan to Latin superstar Asdru Sierra set the stage for the 2018 introduction of his animated alter ego Balt Getty, which first appeared on single “Porsche” (watch the music video) followed by “Retail Therapy”, which attracted Riff Raff for its official remix (Spotify). Balt says his new song is about "the insecurity in all of us. The ugliness in the mirror starring back at us and also the ugliness in Hollywood, in society, in the world. No matter who you are, what you look like, everybody feels ugly at a certain time."
