British singer-songwriter RAYE shines as one of the brightest stars in music today, boasting eight Top 20 UK singles, 5 Billion global streams, an Ivor Novello Award, and a track record of writing for the industry’s biggest names. Since her debut in 2014, RAYE has undergone a remarkable journey to stardom. Nominated for a record-breaking seven 2024 BRIT Awards – the most of any artist in one year – her long-awaited independent debut album “My 21st Century Blues” made an immediate impact. As a welcome result of her self-fulfilling work, RAYE unknowingly created the song that became synonymous with 2023. The global smash “Escapism.” not only became the largest selling single by a female British artist in 2023, but it also earned RAYE her first UK #1 and entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the US where it’s since been certified Platinum. Following support tours with Lewis Capaldi, Kali Uchis, and SZA, RAYE performed 130 headline shows including a rousing set at Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage. Her career-defining turn at Royal Albert Hall – accompanied by a 50-person orchestra and gospel choir – received a televised BBC special for the ages with critics heralding RAYE as “the most talented artist since Adele and Amy Winehouse” (The Telegraph). This year, she performs her “My 21st Century Symphony” to a sold-out crowd of 20,000 at The O2 Arena prior to making her debut at Coachella. After playing and owning the pop game, RAYE bet on herself and won.

East Nashville artist Alocodaman is supremely grateful for the opportunities music has brought into his life. The prolific MC has put eight years of focus and dedication into his craft and is now seeing the fruits of his labor, with hopes of even better harvests on the horizon.

Music has moved Loco closer to his dreams and farther from the wild lifestyle he lived as a teen in “East Nasty,” Tennessee. Now, he’s focused on keeping a level head while living his dream-- Always reminding himself that hard work will beat talent if talent doesn’t work hard.

All Def Digital, HipHopDX and local radio station 1011 The Beat (iHeartRadio) have all taken note of Loco’s work ethic, pushing his standout tracks like "How I Roll" and "Major Flexxin" onto the national stage. The charismatic MC dedicated his life to music after a gang altercation at a party ended in gunfire. But Loco's love for rapping goes back to the fifth grade.

“I made a song called “Buena Vista Soldier” in the 5th grade," remembers Loco. "My big brother helped me on the first verse and I really admired him. So the song meant a hell of a lot.” When Loco recognized he could make a living while doing something he loved, he left the gang lifestyle that ate up his late teens and went for his dream. “Going from stealing to being paid for your talents, that is a blessing! So many people can’t say they do it.”
