WHRW
& CPP's DAN SHORES IS "MAKIN' IT HAPPEN":
Give us a brief rundown of what you do exactly with CPP
and how you gotstarted?
CPP is all encompassing promotions firm. We develop
strategies and campaigns for recording artists and
several other products as well.Myself and Nana Osei
started CPP in the summer of 2005 after many
conversations on how to impact our market in upstate NY
and also NYC. Since then, we've been blessed to work
with the likes of Bulldog Gin, Digiwaxx Media, Scion, DJ
Rob Swift, DJ Spinna, J-Rocc just to name a few.
Explain how the college radio charts work for those
who don't know?
Promoters like us at CPP work an artist's material to
college Dj's. These Djs will submit their weekly charts
or playlists at a number of different industry
publications or trade magazines. The Dj's charts are
compiled and appear on weekly email blasts,websites and
print magazines.
You are a Dj, how does that help market your clients?
As a Dj on radio, in bars, lounges, clubs and even
mixtapes you have a great deal of responsibility.
Listeners or patrons of those clubs look at you to give
them the latest, freshest music. While i'm in this
position I have the opportunity to talk up my clients,
play their music often,put out a mixtape with my client
hosting or splash my mixshow with dozens of drops from
my artist.The possibilities are endless.
What type of clients have you worked with so far..and
how has your services helped them?
We've worked a good deal of Hiphop releases. We've
pushed songs featuring Akon, Jadakiss, Illmind, KRS-1,
Phonte of Little Brother, Cali Agents and Supastition
just to name a few. As far as helping our artists, our
services have landed a lot of our artists in the top 5
each time on the college radio charts, mixtape placement
in countries like Switzerland, Germany and Japan, spins
on XM radio, internet shows and much more.
What advice do you have for anybody who is putting
their own project out and wants to get it out to the
world?
Build relationships with Dj's for one. The DJ will put
your music out there to the masses (if its quality
material of course). Other tips would be to let recorded
music go. Give it away,no one is buying it anymore.
Develop other streams of revenue like merchandise and
touring. Do it full time, go hard and have a
professional team do your art direction. Hope that
helps.
Big L or Big Pun?
Big L, Big Pun was incredible no question about that,
but his newer material was filled with a lot of heavy
breathing and snorting.
Favorite Drink?
Something that Jrocc introduced me to: California kool-aid
aka Hennessy and Pinapple juice. bartenders don't know
how to react when I order that.
Favorite record to "get ya groove on" to?
I have tons of that music. Maxwell, D'angelo, Sade, Mint
Condition, older R. Kelly
Favorite Joint out right now?
The Radar remix by Marco Polo ft. Large Professor
Who are you diggin outside of Hip Hop right now?
I dig a lot of newer sounds while still appreciating the
old. I'll listen to J-Davey or Georgia Ann Muldrow, and
then turn around and listen to someone like Bobby
Caldwell or Donald Byrd
Aight Dan thanks for everything homey.. you got any
shout outs or thank you's?
Of course, big up to the Sole Vibe crew for the
interview.The CPP staff. All the clients past and
present, Nasty-Nes at
RapAttackLives.com, all the DJ's who've rocked w/ us
for so long. Product lines, media sponsors and drink
companies that have helped us along the way. The Beast
from the East over at Get Smart productions, all the
record companies I deal with major and Indie and you of
course the reader. Keep supporting that Sole Vibe shiet!...

I
guess no matter what you do there are some who simply
won't let racism die. This article appeared in the Long
Island Newspaper the Independent which serves the
Hampton Community which is home to wealthy folks like
Martha Stewart and P-Diddy. It would be nice
if some of those who have lots of resources would be
enraged enough to publicly express their displeasure,
but alas they have not....I mean where not talking about
a controversial figure who is being targeted here. We're
talking about Barack Obama. Regardless if you
agree with his politics, he at l;east has made a strong
attempt to bring people of all races together. Whoever
wrote this article along with the people who silently
chuckled along with it, are a big part of the problem we
have in terms of getting us to all come together. You
can write the editors or call them and express your
anger..

Why I Should Be Our Next President
By Yo Mama Bin Barack
http://www.indyeastend.com/1editorialbody.lasso?-token.folder=2008-01-23&-token.story=72453.113117&-nothing
My name is YoMama Bin Barack, and I want to be your
next president so together we can begin in earnest the
work of making sure that the world we leave our children
is just a little bit better than the one we inhabit
today.
My opponents say I live in a dream world. That may well
be true, for I believe in the dream of Doctor Martin
Luther King, the dream that all men are created equal.
His words resonate in my very being: "Some day, you too
can be a black man who makes a difference in this
country, and you too can be called 'Doctor' even though
you are not a doctor of any kind." I believe that, and
someday I hope people will call me Doctor YoMama. In
fact, I hope someday people will call me President
Doctor YoMama (but please don't call me Luther, I hate
that name).
I was telling this very thing to my wife AliBama the
other night while we were in bed, umm, praying. I said,
"AliBama, I want to be your next president so together
we can begin in earnest the work of making sure that the
world we leave our children is just a little bit better
than the one we inhabit today."
And she said, "YoMama, then why don't you cut out the
president shit and get a real job and make some freakin'
money?" But I explained I have plenty of money, because
bleeding heart liberal Democrats from all across this
vast country of ours have felt it in their hearts to
send a contribution to my campaign so I can begin in
earnest the work of making sure that the world we leave
our children is just a little bit better than the one we
inhabit today and also because I need to buy my little
daughter Bama Slamma a PlayStation so she will get off
my back.
Why do I think I am the best candidate for the job? Look
at my resume – it speaks for itself.
Educational background: Doctorate
Military background: I was the first black troop leader
of the Boy Scouts Troop 43 in my home state of
Illinois. Well, that's not quite true, because they
didn't let black kids in the Boy Scouts, so I lied and
said I was Hawaiian, which I kind of am, sort of. You
see, part of my strategy of becoming our first black
president is to deny I am black unless I am campaigning
in Harlem. The truth is, I don't know many black people,
but my advisors have drafted a strategy to reel in the
black vote:
1) Call everyone "Brother." Blacks, I am told, do this,
even if their real brothers are mostly in jail.
2) Talk Jive. Brothers want to hear jive. During my
speech I told the crowd "We be, you know, sick of whitey
supressin' and congestin' so, you know, we won't
denigrate or sophisticate but emulate and populate, you
know, the system is, like, broken, y'all!"
I have no idea what that means. The black folk loved it,
though, so they all vowed to vote for me. The New York
Times covered it, but they are so afraid of saying
something racist they twisted my words around and
reported:
"Yesterday in Harlem YoMama articulated his vision of a
new America, an America with less congestion, a country
free of drug use, a world without segregation or racism
where citizens emulate the lives of great Americans like
YoMama, John F. Kennedy and Doctor Martin Luther King."
So you see, there is my strategy. I get the black vote,
I get the white vote, and then I go after the female
vote by attacking that bitch Hillary for being the Nasty
Witch from Hell.
Anyhow, girls think I'm cute. I'm kind of like Will
Smith, except he's got those Dumbo ears and mine are
normal. So, for the next six months, I am going to fly
all over the country, and every place I speak I am going
to tell the people:
"As Americans, we can take enormous pride in the fact
that courage has been inspired by our own struggle for
freedom, by the tradition of democratic law secured by
our forefathers and enshrined in our Constitution. It is
a tradition that says all men are created equal under
the law and that no one is above it."
To be honest, I have no idea what that means. If you
analyze it carefully, it really doesn't mean anything.
But it sounds like something a president or a doctor
would say. I can make that speech every day and no
matter how many times I do the stupid newspapers will
report it differently. They will make me sound like the
smart, young, new voice of America, because most editors
out there figure anything is better than having a cow
like Hillary Clinton snorking around the White House
making weasel deals again.
Ultimately, if she gets too close, one of my New York
advisors has advised me to, "Bitch slap that ho." White
women, I am told, like that. (Black women, on the other
hand, do not. I tried that once on AliBama and she beat
the living shit out of me.)
Of course, I also have to contend with John Edwards. My
strategy is to ignore him until he actually manages to
win a primary. Since he's, like, zero for 43 so far,
that should be the end of him. You see, Mr. Edwards
hasn't figured out that to win an election some people
have to actually vote for you. (If he does make a run at
me, I might consider bitch slapping him, as he is
somewhat of a Pretty Boy if you get my jist.)
In closing, I humbly ask for your vote on Election Day,
even if I did hang around the school yard and smoke pot
when I was getting my Doctorate in Blackstuff. And, oh,
by the way, I am in the process of finding out how I can
also call myself "Reverend." I have a call in to Al
Sharpton...

WHO
IS KEL SPENCER?:
"Balance," answers Kel Spencer to the question
"What is the key to life?" This Brooklyn native lives up
to that response in every sense of the word. Not only is
Kel Spencer dubbed the best rapper you've never heard of
but he's also Co-Chairman of his own imprints
3RD Power Music Group & Double L
Communications. He's a public speaker and
ghostwriter for artists such as Nick Cannon,
MC Lyte, Rodney Jerkins, Teddy Riley
and Will Smith co-writing songs like the
AMERICAN MUSIC AWARD WINNING "Switch."
Currently, Kel is finishing his own album while working
on the "Who is Kel Spencer?" Documentary. Kel, also a
community leader with his Pens of Power after school
literacy program on the way is the Co-Author of "L.
Bennett's Weekly Bread" and occasionally writes
commercial jingles and Theme Songs... now that's a
balancing act. Kel Spencer The Promise set aside his
promising future in football while attending Morgan
State declaring that, GOD blessed me with
more than one gift and I think I can help a greater
cause by doing the music thang.
His
gift has been displayed on dozens of mix-tapes, at over
75 showcases and on projects like The Wild Wild
West Soundtrack, Will Smiths Willennium
and Born to Reign. Additionally, Kel has
acquired press in/on SMACK
DVD,
XXL Magazine, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY,
BILLBOARD, VIBE, ESPN
Magazine, HUSH, SPORTS
ILLUSTRATED (On Campus Edition) and, BLACK
BEAT. Kel fulfilled all of these accomplishments
while on a strict athletic regiment and taking care of
educational business pursuits at
Morgan State University's
Earl
G. Graves
School of Business.
As a
New York All City quarterback, at Brooklyn's Canarsie
High School, Lennie Bennett aka Kel Spencer,
has always had the passion for leadership and winning. I
think that humans have an innate need to believe in
something, It's just in our nature to want better. But
black music as a whole doesn't feed that need, says Kel.
I want the 3RD Power brand to fill that void.
Partying, having fun and making money are all cool but
we need to keep an eye on the big picture at the same
time. The big picture will be made clear on Kel
Spencer's debut project,
ONE
WAY,
set for release this Summer. Several companies are
interested in Kel and the 3RD Power imprint,
and the negotiation process is "overwhelming," says Kel.
"But first things first, I've already put out the
Who Is Kel Spencer? mix-tape and The
Wilderness Video. Next I'm going to release
Live on The Air hosted by my Big sister,
MC Lyte and the Who is Kel Spencer?
Documentary in addition to my 2007 debut
release "ONE
WAY."
I want to truly establish myself as a brand rather than
just have two decent singles and disappear. I've seen
all of the success stories and all of the failures. By
intertwining my street dealings with spirituality it can
be nothing less than a winning formula, I'm the Block
Apostle, you'll see. Dubbed the Hip Hop Moses, with his
current single, The Building, spinning in
over 22 cities, and 8 countries, Mr. Spencer intends on
leading us to the Promised Land. Kel Spencer The
Promise, hmmm sounds promising. For more info contact:

Attack takes a "WHAT'S UPPER" look this week with:
Kazzeo (KHDC-CA): "Another
great weekend of football. I had no doubt that the
Patriots would win at home against
San
Diego.
But honestly, it was a boring game. And then the whole
is he or isn't he injured deal with Tom Brady a
day or two after the game is clearly a mind game.
Hopefully the Giants don't fall for the scam and
stay focused. Now speaking of the Giants, them winning
at
Green
Bay
was
awesome. That is what a playoff game is supposed to be.
Overtime, in the snow, down to a final field goal. Damn
that was an awesome game. I can't wait for the
Superbowl. My predicton, Giants by at least 4
points"...
DJ
Prove 1 (KSDT-San Diego): "What up! I'm back
(see photo above) DJing every week on KSDT, they
finally fixed the main board and they have a sweet
little new setup and a lot of DJs (many of whom are
spinning Hip-Hop! I'm stoked to be back although it adds
to my already busy life, but I can't ever turn my back
on the opportunity to DJ and spin music for people.
Check the new web site for both KSDT and my music site
for past shows, top spins of all songs on the station
and more! We are just starting to get new music back
into the station, so if you have anything you'd like to
send our way please do, we'd love to spin any and all
good music. As we are just starting out, the charts are
a little light. They will fill out as we progress into
the quarter!

Edgie Kokoski
(WUNH-NH):
" So my wildest dream and worst nightmare came true with
the graceful arc of one football through two yellow
uprights. Just a few minutes earlier I was cursing
Lawrence Tynes and his family, friend and everyone
who knew him. I madly punched a throw pillow and gasped
words that rhymed with "truck" and "stuck" after his
first game winning kick sailed wide. But when he punched
through the impossible (for him) 47 yarder in OT, all
was forgiven. But not all was forgiven. Not on Monday
morning when I arrived at work to find my New York
Giants mug sitting in the center of my desk with a
big "Post-It" note attached to it with the word "Loser"
scrawled in angry red marker. So now I embark on the two
week hero's quest of solitude. Every man, woman, and
child in
New
England
is
against me. But I must soldier on, because that's what a
real fan does.
Speaking of real fans, I didn't realize what a hardcore
porn fan DJ Premier was until today. Following a
strong recommendation, I downloaded a recent edition of
Premier's Sirius Satelite radio show "Live From
Headquarterz". This edition was being guest hosted by DJ
Eclipse, as Premier was at the Adult Video News
Awards in Las Vegas. Halfway through the first hour,
Premier calls into the show and starts rattling off a
laundry list of the porn stars that he's interacted
with, giving detailed descriptions of how their
appearance and performances have changed in comparison
to their recent video releases. He is nearly giddy, and
lauds the porn industry for growing and encourages the
Hip-Hop industry to grow in such a manner. I guess I
always knew he got his inspiration from somewhere, I
just didn't figure it would be porn. Who knew we had
that in common?
Speaking of trashy media, I've about had it with
XXL. The book continues to spiral downward in
quality, and the "100th Issue" spectacular that just hit
my mailbox is no exception. This issue features Hip
Hop's 100 biggest moments since XXL was founded.
Although they picked some good moments, the ranking is
way out of wack. The deaths of Big L, JMJ, and
Big Pun (at #83, #43, and #23 respectively) are
outranked by ridiculous choices like Ma$e
becoming a Minister (#22), T.I. getting arrested
by the ATF (#20), and Lauryn Hill winning 5
Grammys (#12). Other ridiculously trivial moments
include Kurupt and Foxy Brown's break up
(#92), Puffy runs the NY Marathon (#80), Gucci
Mane is arrested for attempted murder (#77), Tony
Yayo goes back to prison (#72), DMX
impersonates an FBI Agent (#53), and Snoop Dogg
signs to "No Limit" (#41). Where the death of J.
Dilla? Where's the demise of vinyl and other hard
copy music media? The proliferation of satelite radio?
The rise of indy labels like Definitive Jux,
Rhymesayers, and Koch? I could probably think
of twenty others that they missed. The only solace is
the fact that I finally got to read the last
self-indulgent smarmy column by the recently terminated
editor, Elliott Wilson. His unrelenting bragging
looks pretty foolish now!"...
Nate Abney
(WKDU-Philly):
Another week of winter. I'm tired of it can we just skip
to spring. Hope everyone remembered the importance of
Martin Luther King Day. I went to the Sixers-Pacers
game, and quite honestly I think my community
service could have been helping them make free throws.
The experience wasn't a total loss as R-son and
his family and I had box seats with food courtesy of
Aramark( Shout out to Rich on the tickets).
The Flight Brothers was back in action last
Friday at the Arts Garage. 1535 Ridge Avenue in North
Philly 18+ 21 to drink, but as usual I'm not drinking.10
bills. Till next week here is hoping that Randy Orton
loses to Jeff Hardy at the Royal Rumble"...
Randy
"DJ Raize" Reyes (Mixtape/Jive Records-New
York): "I
just wanted to share with you all a short video of our
wedding in Philippines. It is about a three and a half
minutes long. Enjoy:.

Brother John
(TheBestJams.com):
"Peace, now that we are into 2008 and Apple just
released the dopest laptop ever, I think its time I
introduced myself. I am Brother John from The Best
Jams.com. I run 6 radio stations from my crib and
they all are live 24hrs a day. These channels include

attention. Instead, I am coming to you in a professional
manner, in black and white.
To all DJs, if you would be interested in spinning a pre
recorded show or live(depends on your technological know
how). I am offering 1hr and 2hr spots to those djs who
want to get added exposure, all I could offer is a place
for you to get your talent/ skill to the masses through
internet radio. If you spin any of the above genres any
styles, it does not matter as long as its quality and
hot. We already have 5

Google Analytics as well as click throughs. As soon as
you get the banners to me they will go up.

stations please reply. All underground and myspace
artists get their own show on Mondays, if you are

weekly basis. 3 months free to try.
I am one of the only stations that can play your song
the fastest (example, if you send me a song at 1pm by
1.04pm I am cueing it to be played(depending you have
the song properly tagged and not to big of a file). I
promise, I will take it a step further, my
AIM
is
thebestjams
And you can always find me online. I am always
reachable.
Lastly, we have a Vote/ Feedback site called Thebestjams
Vote www.thebestjams.com/vote here is the quickest way
to get feedback on songs, cds, or gadgets or other
products. It is a 5 star system, you see for example
Wu-Tangs CD there, with 5 stars above it, click on
the star that you think that it deserves and in 3
seconds its recorded and stored. If you would like to
write a few words simply click on CD and you can read a
bio or info about that cd and then leave a comment.
Easily accessed so you can check on it daily, no hassles
at all. All I would need is a Pic, description and a
sample of the song or links, ie youtube,
rapidshare, etc... This is free for 3 months as
well.
Oh and one more thing, if you are into movies, please

that area of entertainment. This site is Sponsored by
