Rapper from Dayton, Ohio.
"Make your own possibilities happen"

“Understanding the order of time is important to anyone hoping to manifest a dream,” says Valerie June. “There is a time to push, and a time to gently tend the garden.”

Since the release of her 2013 breakout Pushin’ Against A Stone, June has been patiently at work in the garden of song, nurturing seedlings with love and care into the lush bloom that is her stunning new album, The Order Of Time. Some songs grew from seeds planted more than a decade ago, others blossomed overnight when she least expected them to, but every track bears the influence of time. See, time has been on June’s mind a lot lately. It’s the only constant in life, even though it’s constantly changing. It’s the healer of all wounds, the killer of all men. It’s at once infinite and finite, ever flowing with twists and turns and brutal, churning rapids that give way to serene stretches of placid tranquility. Fight against the current and it will knock you flat on your ass. Learn to read it, to speak its language, and it will carry you exactly where you’re meant to be.

OKeh short history: 

OKeh was founded by Otto K. E. Heinemann when he set up his own recording studio and gramophone record pressing plant in New York City in September 1918. Heinemann formed the name of the record label "OKeh", from his initials.  OKeh began by issuing popular songs, dance numbers, and vaudeville skits similar to the fare of other labels, but Heineman also wished to experiment with music for audiences neglected by the larger record companies. OKeh produced lines of recordings in German, Czech, Polish, Swedish, and Yiddish for the USA's immigrant communities. In 1920, Ralph Peer's recordings by African-American blues singer Mamie Smith were a surprise smash hit for Okeh. The company perceived the significant, little-tapped market for blues and jazz by African American artists. Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Bix Beiderbecke are only a few names of jazz greats that have recorded for the label. By 1926 Columbia Records bought the label and kept it running into the 60's with jazz and R&B recordings. 

In 1994, Sony Music reactivated the OKeh label as a new-age Blues label. Okeh's first new signings included Keb' Mo, Popa Chubby, and Little Axe. By 2000, the Okeh label was again retired, but in 2013 it will see its re-launch as a jazz label once again.

Much like songbird Edith Piaf, Madeleine Peyroux spent her teenage years busking the busy streets of Paris. Just like the ‘little sparrow’, Madeleine befriended the city’s street musicians and made its Latin quarter her first performing stage. Years later, Peyroux would cite iconic Piaf as an influence on her music and record a rendition of the classic La Vie En Rose, soulfully capturing the tune’s romanticism and melancholy.
 
Born in Athens, Georgia in 1974, Madeleine “grew up in a house filled with music” and from an early age “instinctively realised music’s soothing power” but it was her teenage years in the French capital that turned the childhood notion into an all-consuming vocation for life.

Young Madeleine moved to Paris with her mother in 1987 following her parents divorce. “To soothe me during the upheaval”, she recalls, “I was given a guitar and took to playing in the streets almost immediately.”

Thirty years after her formative busking days Peyroux is the proud curator of nine beguiling albums and an accomplished performer with sell out worldwide tours under her belt. Her atmospheric version of Serge Gainsborough’s La Javanaise was used in the soundtrack of Oscar Winner The Shape of Water and her countless accolades
include the coveted BBC International Artist Of The Year honour.
 
Madeleine’s thirst for creative exploration is unfading and her willingness to face creative challenges remains as solid now as it was three decades ago.

With endearing passion and great curiosity the unstoppable genre-defying virtuoso continues her search for the good and examines life with the treasured William Congreve belief that Music has charms to soothe the savage beast.
 
Madeleine might attribute her success to “mostly luck” but to the industry and loyal fans alike, it is the immense talent and utter dedication to her craft that shines through.
“Peyroux is a tremendous talent and almost a total intuitive” reflects Larry Klein, “she has the capacity to get the magic. When she sings and plays her guitar, great things happen.”

Lex Cruz a/k/a LexOne embodies the spirit of the modern-day Renaissance man with limitless ambition. The talented Miami-by-way-of-New York artist is a rapper, music producer, deejay, director, event promoter, and indie label owner, known just as much for his wild live shows, as his business acumen. Lex got his feet wet in the music industry in 2006 when he founded GTPS (Get That Paper Son) at the former Hi-Top Studios (a hybrid recording studio and sneaker boutique) in Fort Laude in Fort Lauderdale. When days were slow, he and his musical partner Mike Beatz locked themselves in the studio, perfecting their craft and steadily building a following. While living in New York in November 2009, he received a phone call from the U.K. about a track he cut with Mike and some other friends (under the name Wizard Sleeve) that was blowing up overseas. The song, “Riverside (Let’s Go!),” caught the attention of famed label Ministry of Sound Records, who signed the group for the single, had them re-record it, and asked them to fly to London to shoot a video. What was supposed to be a 12-day, 14-show tour in late 2009 grew substantially, blossoming into a whopping 33 shows in 23 days. At the same time, “Riverside” hit numerous milestones,including becoming a gold record (more than 500,000 copies sold), staying on the U.K. charts for more than 11 weeks, and hitting number-one in multiple countries. That same year, Lex dropped a solo album and a compilation with his Monsters Ink crew, in addition to appearing on another giant single with U.K. dance pioneers, Aquasky/Black Noise. Throughout his career, Lex has worked with a number of Hip-Hop greats both on his own, and as part of his side p and as part of his side projects (Major League, Wizard Sleeve, and Monsters Ink). They include Freeway, Rick Ross, and N.O.R.E. along with super-producers such as StreetRunner and Baby Paul (of Da Beatminerz), to name a few. He has also toured with the likes of Souls of Mischief, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Smoke DZA, and has shared the stage with a slew of notable acts, like Curren$y, AZ, KRS-One, Troy Ave, Trick Daddy, Method Man, Inspectah Deck, and Kool Keith, among others. As for his own work, the year 2016 was one of his biggest yet thanks to the release of his great Gold Plaque album, which features notable singles “Walk Alone,” “They Know” (which debuted on Sway In The Morning), and “I’ma Beast.” Those tracks made sizable dents on multiple platforms, including college radio, SoundCloud, and Spinrilla. The record built on what Lex had done with 2015’s solid Almost Gold project and the previous year’s No Prisoners, a collaborative album with Mike Beatz aka Thirdworld Don.
