It would probably be easier if we told you what Hopsin doesn’t do, but Hop is an MC, producer, director, actor, and editor. And his journey has been anything but painless.
Stuck in special education classes, Hopsin did not see much of a future in high school. His teachers did nothing but reinforce the feelings that he wouldn’t amount to anything; especially if he continued to waste his time attending classes where nothing was actually being taught. So with no money and only a few real friends, Hopsin dropped out of school in 2004.
Determined to be one of Southern Cali’s premier MCs Hopsin bought an $8 microphone from Wal-Mart, installed Fruity Loops on his computer, and locked himself in the basement. As time went by he knew that his lyrics and production had surpassed what he was hearing on the radio. He combined his skills with a new image [often seen wearing white contacts] and emerged from the basement.
In 2007, Hopsin signed a major record deal with Ruthless Records, and released his freshman album, “Gazing at the Moonlight” in October 2009. Unfortunately Hopsin was never able to get on the same page as Ruthless, so in 2010 he decided to cut ties, and join his own label, Funk Volume.
In November 2010, he released his sophomore album, RAW, and has not looked backed.  Since then Hopsin has headlined over 200+ shows around the world, grew his Facebook page to over 2 Million fans, and racked up millions of YouTube views.
Hopsin released the highly anticipated album, “Knock Madness” in November 2013 and spent 2014 touring in over 100 cities around the globe. He's preparing to take over once again in 2015.

TANTRASONICA
Texas-bred, L.A.-based vocalist-lyricist-percussionist-actor's recent 5-song EP, Casa de ZenRage, is co-produced by Frank Gryner (Tommy Lee, Rob Zombie, Train) and rock artist Karen Stever. 

Bobby calls his style of music “TantraSonica” — a mash-up of electro-ethno-industrial rock delivered across a 3 1/2+ octave range of high-soaring, multilingual rock tenor vocals, belting conscious lyrics about the human condition — from the primal to the divine.

The subject matter reflects his heart-driven service mission — suicide prevention, anti-bullying, self-empowerment, dealing with the news of the death of a long-lost loved one, tolerance, compassionate justice, Oneness, awakening, attitude makeovers, and karma. 

Collaborators and fans have described his arrangements as “epic;” his ballads, “moving;” “NIN meets Lenny Kravitz.” Bobby would humbly add a touch of Rise Against, Faith No More, and Linkin Park as influences.

SHAPE-SHIFTER
Bobby will always be able to morph into a diversity of alter egos, though. He was recently spotted as a featured cartel thug guarding Blake Lively’s character in the Oliver Stone film, Savages. Bobby breathes a passionate urgency into primal vocals and tribal percussion as: former original co-lead vocalist/percussionist for electronic rock band, SkinMask; Rock en Espanol and gypsy flamenco vocalist for Michael Battista’s Piratas de Amor; MC/HypeMan/Percussionist/Vocalist at LoveStock Festivals; Drummunication Transformational Drum Circles; Trance Dance Yoga classes; LoveMob’s “The Beat” and Reign Morton’s “In The Moment” music flash mobs; and, Fire-Water Goddess Shams’ belly dance appearances.

Bobby has appeared as a Featured Artist with the Agape International Choir belting his signature rock vocal version of Earth, Wind, and Fire’s “Fantasy.” With choral training early in his career, Bobby has been part of choral ensembles backing or sharing stages with Stevie Wonder, Josh Groban, India.Arie, Nathan East, Jamie Cullum, Nikki Harris, and former Doobie Brother Michael McDonald.

NOW UP NEXT
Bobby’s recent collabs include Colorado Alt-Rock singer-songwriter Chris Varosy, New Jersey DJ-Producer N Pa, Minneapolis DJ/MC Mikey Fineline, and currently, fellow Edinburg, Texas native, producer and multi-instrumentalist, DJ Skootr Valdez. The two are working on 2 songs in the hopes of debuting soon at a large outdoor spring break concert. 

This former radio ad copywriter-turned-recording artist and emerging producer in many ways is just coming to the surface. Stay tuned as the ZenRage journey unfolds.  1 TRIBE. 1 LOVE.

Legacies become forged through consistency. 

Relentless reliability is intrinsic to longevity in the music business—or any other business for that matter. No giving up is allowed. No promise can go unfulfilled. If people can depend on you, they'll believe in you and stick with you until death. Since forming in 1994, Grammy award-nominated hardcore and metal stalwarts Hatebreed have constantly crushed with every subsequent album. Their six full-length effort and first for Razor & Tie, The Divinity of Purpose, proudly upholds that tradition cast in almost two decades of blood, tears, and flames. It's everything fans have come to expect from the Connecticut-based quintet—Jamey Jasta [vocals], Chris Beattie [bass], Wayne Lozinak [guitar], Frank Novinec [guitar], and Matthew Byrne [drums]—and more. 

Be prepared to witness their flame rise high once again…

The Divinity of Purpose began to take shape in 2010. The band had welcomed back original guitarist Lozinak for 2009's covers set, For the Lions, and their self-titled fifth effort the same year. During a two-year tour cycle, they expanded their global stamp through performing to rabid crowds in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, and South America. In addition, they ravaged the U.S. and Europe alongside the likes of Five Finger Death Punch and Lamb of God as well as on the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival twice. However, they collectively decided to amp everything up for album number six.

"We were going for a bigger sound," affirms Jasta. "We reintroduced Wayne on the last album. He'd never been on a full-length record with us, and it felt like we had to prove ourselves again. We also tried to do things outside of our comfort zone musically on Hatebreed. This time around, we played to our strengths as a band and gelled incredibly. The riffs had to be really heavy, memorable, and catchy. The rhythms needed to be pounding. I went back into drill sergeant mode vocally. I focused on saying what I had to say and got in and out. The music makes its point and leaves its mark. It's a tight snapshot of the last two years."

In order to capture that snapshot, the group focused its assault during an intense and rigorous period of pre-production at home. Maintaining an impressive work ethic, they spent time honing their patented sound into an even more uncompromising and unbreakable beast. Co-produced by the band, Zeuss [Suicide Silence, All That Remains], and Josh Wilbur [Lamb of God, Avenge Sevenfold], The Divinity of Purpose sees Hatebeed at their most fierce and fiery.

Take the first single "Put it to the Torch." An avalanche of guitars pummels alongside staggering rhythms and a distinct bass wallop. Jasta roars with uncontainable intensity proclaiming, "Here's your apology. Here's to burning out and here's to fading away. Fuck you both. I just put it to the torch."

About the song, he divulges, "We didn't want to reinvent the wheel, but we wanted to make something heavy and aggressive with an old school vibe. We've faced an unusual amount of toxic energy over the past couple of years. It's important that you turn that negativity into a positive. That's always been the message of the band from day one. We can bottle that negative energy and use it as fuel. Sometimes, it gives you that push."

Speaking of a "push," "Honor Never Dies" steamrolls ahead with a propulsive riff and inspirational reflection on those who have served America. With a massive hook and deep meaning, it's also a fitting tribute to any fallen hero.

"Those lyrics came about right after my grandfather passed away," Jasta explains. "When I visited him in Veterans Administrative Hospital back in Connecticut, I'd see all of these vets & war heroes with purple hearts and other commendations hospitalized. The nurses told me a lot of those guys never get visitors. Some die alone in a hospital bed with no family or anyone else around. I'd spoken to some of them before my grandfather died. Luckily I got to be with him before he passed. I had to put that feeling into a song and now some of what I’ve taken away from that experience lives on through this. It’s not just about our vets or my gramp but anyone who does something in service of others, they may not get the glory but their honorable actions live on through the people they help."

The title track also encapsulates something very crucial to the Hatebreed ethos within the framework of another explosive anthem.

The frontman confesses, "Music has always been my purpose. When I became a father, my life had new purpose. Sometimes, you find an initial purpose, and then you find a new purpose as you grow as a person. When you find something you love that gives you fulfillment, it can be an almost divine experience. That's where we are going with this."

In 2012, they also found the perfect partner to release the album in Razor & Tie.  Hatebreed instantly felt home on their roster. "Heavy music is in a great place right now. There's a groundswell coming, and Razor & Tie understands that and is on the cusp of it. They're all people we've been friends with too. It's onward and upward for us right now."

It's been a long road to The Divinity of Purpose. Along the way, the band racked up sales of over 1.1 million records worldwide. They garnered a Grammy Award nomination for "Best Metal Performance" for "Live for This", and they've appeared at prestigious festivals including OZZfest, Download, and Wacken Open Air multiple times.  Among numerous chart successes, their first-ever live DVD, Live Dominance, debuted at #1 on the Billboard DVD chart, while Hatebreed hit #4 on the Billboard Indie chart.

Right now, Hatebreed's heart is beating stronger than ever, but that's nothing new. "Hatebreed has always meant the same thing to me," he concludes. "We maintain that anger and frustration, but it's not aimless. There's positivity to releasing that energy. It has a cyclical power. The fans that really vibe off it created everything we have. We’ve done things we dreamt of as kids because of our hard work and because the fans have gotten us to this global level. They give us purpose to make the most impact with our records that we can." 

It's another chapter of Hatebreed's legacy. 

I am Dj Sita! from rochester ny I started djing over 10 years ago when I fell in love with electronic dance music started out by just going to different edm events and was so impressed with what the dj was mixing  using different techniques. Some of my first influences of electronic music was super star djs like richard humpy vision,bad boy bill,dj  skribble one of my all time favorite mix cds was dj skirbble anthony acids mdma series. Some of my favorite styles of edm music are electro house,bassline,breaks,dubstep,moombahton and im also starting to get into a newer style of 140 bpm called trap. My dj style is called technical mixing I like to blend  different tracks together and make it into a good sounding mash up also another thing i like to do is quick mixing sometimes you can catch me mixing through over 40 tracks in a hour. Some of my accomplishments was I put together a mix series called the V. series that also helped boost getting booked at alot of different events the music range was alot of electro house,bassline,fidget and my most recent project is the SitaStep series which is different mixtapes of the latest dubstep and moombahton. Some of my recent and future goal is producing I started learning how to produce my own music and the more I get into the studio the more I am advancing in production. So keep a lookout for new material from me.
