Spin Hot Pursuit - Bye Week

Von Sway, was born in Brooklyn, NY. The middle of 3 children. Von Sway grew up in Brooklyn, NY surrounded with music. At the age of six, he began the cultivation of his talents as a musician/performing artist. As a devoted performer, Von Sway spent his formative years learning and playing his instruments in his schools band, going to his mother's church and with various local musicians. He grew up in an era of the early 90’s sound and the sounds of the late 80’s. With local musicians such as Full Force, Big Daddy Kane, UTFO, and Whodini just to name a few… He was bound to be a well rounded performing artist. From piano and guitar lessons as a child, to singing about life’s ordeal as a young man, Von Sway's growth and development has had a flavorful recipe: R&B, Hip Hop, Jazz, Classical and powerful soul music mixed with Rock, Von Sway has seemed to embraced them all. Destined to take the industry by storm, Von Sway's aspirations are to “stir up feelings, capture the imagination, and fuel thoughts” with his messages of hope and love. On stage Von Sway transforms yet to a level beyond his youthful age and delivers a performance that is hot, sexy, and energetic. Strong in every sense of the word, his singing raptures music lovers completely, with tones and melodies that fluctuate or linger with every whim of his will. Drained and exhausted, he gives his all to please his crowd. Reaching deep into his soul, he opens up only to touch the souls of those listening to his music. Signed to Brothers & Sisters Entertainment, Von Sway is diligently working hard in the studio with C. Roc and Khaliq Bey of B.S.E., Von Sway's debut album is near completion. Von Sway has performed along side platinum recording artists Wyclef Jean, Bilal, the legendary hip hop artist Doctor Ice of the acclaimed group UTFO, in functions throughout New York City and New Jersey. He has also performed with K.O. Lition, Ce$s Wonder, MelSoulTree, Nikki Kimbrough, Cartier, and Melissa Morgan to mention a few. With production from B.S.E's lead producers C. Roc and Khaliq, whom themselves have produced the likes of Pattie Labelle, Tyrese, Ruff Endz, Trick Daddy, Trina and other notables, Von Sway's distinct sound is assured to have the ingredients that only seasoned producers such as C. Roc and Khaliq can deliver.

    Congrats to "Rantings of Eva"!!!
    I also wanna say congrats to everyone in this comp for getting heard and getting the recognition that you all deserve. I know I at times displayed my emotions in ways that was not cool. But it's all in the growing up department, and we all evolved from this. Just keep keeping it real, and we will once again (soon I hope), be side by side in our quest for success and being HEARD! Here's another idea for being heard! There's a new page on MN called "Collaboration Nation" for the listing of music that are collabs between 2 or more artists on MN. It's not just there you can be heard, but if you collaborate with other artists in other genres, then your limitations to which contests you can enter just opened up to an endless selection. Use whatever you can to BE HEARD!!!!! http://musicnation.com/music/mncollabs I love you all to DEATH! LSD

    Today's selection features Mark Holman of Holworks singing the lyrics he written to the music I'd composed ~ & although this collaboration was started cyberspace ~ it was realized live as all recording took place in my Ashram / Asylum ~ Mark flew in from North Carolina in order to complete this piece that I am presenting as my contest entry for today !

  • ~ The Altruistic Messiah ~ a.k.a. ~ Ben Vandagriff says

    Today's selection for my contest song features a cyber - collaboration with my friend Manes who goes by the name of Encrypted Verbalist ~ and he is also one of the SPIN HOT PURSUIT contestants , as well as a very talented artist in his own right !
    He heard this music , asked & received my permission to up load the mp3 ~ and added this incredible vocal track of his lyrics to my music ! I hope you'll enjoy the the powerful combination of our our two personal styles together ~ I think this is a perfect example of the power of Web 2.0 Technology at it's finest ~ and I believe this exploits one aspect of the innumerable possibilities in artists networking together on a musicians social network in the very best light ~ thank you Manes !!!!!! http://musicnation.com/music/thealtruistic/ghost-woman-tommorow
