He started writing poetry and music at the age of 7. “I remember the first time I saw the videos on MTV, It was like, that’s me, that’s what I want to be”. Growing up he had no father figure, no guidance, and mother who was sacrificing everything for a talent that she recognized in her son at an early age, He began writing poetry which then developed into songwriting, which developed into the recording, an so it began.”I saw my mother, it was like, she gave up her dreams to help make mine come true, now it’s time for me to pay her back for all the sacrifices she made so I could have the ability to do what I do now. .. I want her to be able to live her dreams through those of my own”. By the time he was 14 he had already won poetry contests locally an even out of state as well. At the age of 22 he has already accomplished a lot. He has successfully performed locally in his hometown of auburn NY, and has been featured on mix tapes all over upstate NY. .. He has also dabbled in the business side of the music as well, successfully setting up shows in NYC and NJ forother fellow artists. He has had the opportunity to meet some influential figures in music. Most notably, being young hip hop sensation The New Boyz, as well as Max B, DJ Lazy K, and others. He has made contacts with labels such as Island Def Jam and Bad Boy Records as well. 2nd Comin plans the release of his first full album entitled “An American Nightmare” by the end of 2010. “It's like I want people to understand, I represent the real,I represent the broken dreams of everyone who has never and will never make it. .. I’m an Artist, not a rapper, an Artist. I don’t make dance records and pop records. Let the others do that, there is too much going on in the world today to be making popcorn music, I intend to bring back the stories, the real life issues that people can relate to, and I can still make you feel the music. That’s what an Artist does, we paint pictures. You don’t have to like my music; all that I ask is that you respect it”. less

Dizzy says “ I want people to feel sexy and what love is suppose to feel like. Not being afraid to let go.Dive in fearlessly. That’s what we should be about. That’s what I try to give off in my music.” Stay tuned for more music info. less

This Sybil of musical creativity, known as Drea, is one of the hottest up and coming singer, songwriter, producers on the east coast. While her years on this earth are few, the directions in which her life has traveled are many aiding in her ability to possess her varying musical personalities.
“My life today is much different than I envisioned it to be while living home in Troy (AL). After becoming a music director at a church, I would have thought that would have been it. I wanted more, and I thought my relocation to Fayetteville (NC) and playing at a mega church would have satisfied what I was longing to accomplish, but I then moved to NY and God has continued to bless me in all that I do by expanding my exposure to life and music.”
Music has always been the driving force for this young musician; from the age of 14 Drea has been accompanying her first artist, her dad in her home state of Alabama. The church prepared her in her gift of songwriting, performing, and production as she has worked with countless choirs, groups, and independent gospel artists. While her dad, Artis Baxter remains to be her favorite singer to work with, Drea has played for Grammy nominated gospel songwriter Becky White, Dorothy Norwood, Kennedy Atkinson former MD of Arrested Development, and many others. While the lyrics may be different from what you hear today, Drea brings along her gospel jazz chords which will always be her signature.

While the lyrics may be different from what you hear today, Drea brings along her gospel jazz chords which will always be her signature.
Looking to diversify her style Drea began playing with a rock band after arriving to Long Island, NY in 2004. She then took things a step further and continued her education for the first time formally studying music, at the prestigious Boston University School of Music to achieve her Doctorate in Music Education.
“I had never formerly studied music that is theory so it was a gamble applying to BU (Boston University) with a B.S. in Marketing from UA (University of Alabama), and a Masters of Education from AIU (American Intercontinental University). Here was this young student with no formal studies in the mix with music professors from around the world. That is what I call blessed!”
Her style has been likened to that of the multitude of artists that have influenced her throughout her career; Kim Burrell, Stevie Wonder, Missy Elliot, and Sergio Mendez just to name a few. No matter what the project is, all of Drea’s productions have been described as being, “what true music sounds like and you getting a heavy dose of it” Austin Jeter, Urban Mainstream Magazine
Balancing the many projects Drea is involved in, her solo career with her debut CD release “Love Affair”, and the creation of her independent label SoundDoc Entertainment, founded in the summer of 2007 continues to give this artist/producer the inspiration and drive to make her mark on music history.. less

Since her arrival Gaby's been constantly immersed in music and the industry with a single minded goal: To become a successful singer/songwriter mixing Spanish and English vocals while retaining total artistic and creative control. Looking back on the past decade, it's apparent Hendrix isn't the only thing she can figure out. Winner of the 2006 John Lennon Songwriting Contest, "Maxell Song of the Year" via "Escondidos" helped garner exposure and was a huge step in the right direction. Her pace has quickened since, with songs like the irresistibly funky "Greenhorne Man" being featured by television shows such as ABC's "Lincoln Heights" and "Ghost Whisperer" and MTV's "The Hills." She was then given the task to write the theme song for NBC's "Parks and Recreation" which is now a staple in scores of households across the nation. It's only a matter of time before bigger things are set in motion. KCRW's Nic Harcourt, the former host of "Morning Becomes Eclectic", featured Gaby in an October 2008 podcast and bestowed "top tune" status to her song entitled "Song of You" for a day as well. This from a man who, in his own words, helped musicians like Coldplay, Dido, and Norah Jones get on the map and achieve stardom. Ariana Morgenstern, Producer of "Morning Becomes Eclectic" had this to say about Gaby: "Her debut recording, Still the Unknown, caught me by surprise with its organic and understated feel. She sings beautifully both in English and in Spanish." Pop culture aside, what truly matters to Gaby is whether her fans and fellow artists respect and honor her work. The answer: Yes. In August of 2009 Gaby toured along with established singer/songwriter Tracy Chapman. Later in November of 2009, Gaby was thrilled to open for the fiercely independent and adventurous soul, Ani Difranco, on an east coast tour. Such an impression was made that Ani extended an offer to have Gaby tour with her again in January/February 2010. And taking a cue from the most successful independent artist previously mentioned, all of Gaby's tours have been without the aid of a booking agent nor label, something she's animatedly proud of. Whether she's belting traditional Guatemalan ballads or ripping up funky blues inspired riffs, Gaby Moreno is on the rise. She's excited for a new decade, new changes, and new challenges. She can't wait to see you out there. less
