Melanie Martinez's creative drive and talents have always distinguished her from other musicians. After releasing her platinum-certified 2015 debut album, Cry Baby—which reached No. 1 on Billboard's alternative albums chart and has amassed over two billion streams worldwide —she conceived and directed a video for each song on the album. These mini-movies traced the traumas and insecurities experienced by the album's character, Cry Baby.
 
Melanie’s sophomore album and film, K-12, is another ambitious triumph. K-12's music is a vibrant and singular melting pot of low-key hip-hop, soulful pop and indie-leaning electro. K-12's universe is an expansion of the one introduced in Cry Baby. Using lyrics rich with metaphor, songs address the struggle to find a place to belong—including within friendships, the physical world and romantically—even when fitting into society feels like an uphill battle.
 
To accompany the album, Martinez wrote and directed a 90-minute movie (also called K-12) that incorporates the album's music and mirrors the themes and characters introduced. Filmed on location in Budapest, Hungary, the movie focuses on Cry Baby (portrayed by Martinez) and a class of students who find themselves trapped in a horror house-like residential school. As they experience the usual grade school rites of passage—a lunch room food fight, the embarrassment of gym class, a romance with nefarious intentions, courses taught by checked-out teachers— they have to figure out a way to escape.

Official City Girls. Booking - Info@CityGirlsBooking.com

Hailed by Rolling Stone as being “the hottest duo in rap,” the City Girls has successfully claimed their stake as being the most notorious power players in female Hip Hop. Yung Miami (Caresha Romeka Brownlee) and JT (Jatavia Shakara Johnson), known for being authentic, uncensored and unapologetic, took the world by storm with their first two projects Period and Girl Code, followed by their contribution on Drake’s number one pop hit “In My Feelings.” The first ladies of Quality Control Music, Yung Miami and JT’s knack for storytelling mixed with their infectious personalities are responsible for empowering a cult following of women who not only have something to say but aren’t afraid to say it. 

City Girls’ presence and ascent, as their lyrics suggest, are attributable to their resilience, pride and just a little bit of finesse. From “Take Yo Man,” “Pussy Talk,” multiplatinum and gold-selling single “Twerkulator,” their recent release “Top Notch,” and their latest release “Good Love ft Usher,” there’s no shortage of bravado, pleasures (both carnal and material), or pursuit of opportunities in their songs, which brim with a buoyant nonchalance, as if begging for someone to challenge them. This ownership over who they are—without shame or pause—that oozes from their music, carrying the proud, sex-positive hustler’s DNA of the Florida rap that preceded them.
