How far can we go before moving forward requires us to get out of our comfort zone? Christian Crosby found himself asking this very question after finding success as a media personality in the NBA, with a reach of over 150k followers across all socials. Christian’s energetic personality won him his spot as in-arena host with the Philadelphia 76ers after starting out as a trampoline dunker at age 17. But even now as an NBA in-arena host for the past 10+ years, Christian realizes he has yet to face many personal hang ups and insecurities, due to staying in his comfort zone.
 
“I have spent the majority of my life in some way comfortable. In a safe place mentally, spiritually, and economically. Through my life I’ve naturally found ways to hide behind my insecurities, my fears, and my true self. I’ve used my sense of humor, my creativity, and my success to hide the real me. I’ve finally reached a point where I won’t be able to grow unless I evolve. I have to get out of my comfort zone and discover my true self. I believe this is the only way to achieve true happiness and fulfill my true purpose in life. As I begin this journey for myself, I encourage others to do the same. Why not? I hope my music inspires that.” 
 
Christian Crosby’s music uses consistent visuals of goldfish & balloons, which are symbolic of childhood innocence and total freedom, wisdom and wealth. The balloon represents high spirits and hope. The goldfish are symbolic of good luck in the form of tranquility, and long life. By exploring music, Christian has discovered that he can express himself in ways he was unable to before. Starting with his first song “Insecure”; for the first time in his life Christian is able to reveal his true thoughts, insecurities, and feelings to the world.
 
Christian is also the founder of a cause-driven media and apparel company, Live Life Nice, dedicated to empowering, motivating, and inspiring people to "be nice and do nice." You can find his Live Life Nice brand in Footlocker. Christian’s apparel company is currently focusing on selling masks which raise money for COVID-19 relief efforts. They have already sold over 150,000 masks and donated over $25,000 in just weeks.

Ypsilanti, Michigan’s own golden child, Kendall Tucker, bka 14KT, is a multi-talented Artist/Producer/DJ. His musical roots came from growing up singing in the church choir. It was there and by studying his parent’s jazz and soul records, along with piano and upright bass lessons, Kendall learned the fundamentals of music.

14KT got his start as 1/7th of this mighty Hip-hop collective, The Athletic Mic League. He started out as an emcee, inspired by the sounds of Wu-Tang Clan, Nas, Gangstarr, A Tribe Called Quest and Outkast. Finding it hard to get instrumental beats, KT started using the “Pause/Play/Record” method, by looping breaks on cassette tapes so the crew could rap over them. 

14KT’s solo career began in 2008. After a rich history with AML, he entered and won his first beat battle competition, in Red Bull Big Tune Detroit. Later that year, he released his debut instrumental LP, “The Golden Hour [Soundtrack].” The Golden Hour made its mark appearing on many year-end “top albums” lists. Okayplayer said “this is the sort of striking project that can singlehandedly create an artists following.” And so it did.

14KT is the last Big Tune national champion, which he went on to win in 2010.
He’s worked with the likes of Aloe Blacc, Black Milk, Bun B, Danny Brown, Elzhi, Jay Electronica, JMSN, Masta Ace, Mayer Hawthorne, Legendary Motown Funk Brothers guitarist Dennis Coffey and many others. His music was featured in the DVD for Michael Rapaport’s A Tribe Called Quest documentary, “Beats, Rhymes, & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest.” Live, he’s rocked with the Stones Throw crew, at Low End Theory, SXSW, on tour with Mayer Hawthorne, Slum Village, and across the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia.

To date, 14KT has released seven solo albums, as well as his collaborative Hip-hop album, "Takin Ls" with emcee Ozay Moore,  R&B/Soul album, “Saturn Return” with singer/songwriter AB, and “The Big Knock”, together with Mayer Hawthorne as the “Beat Wave” group Jaded Incorporated [Universal Republic/Casablanca Records]. Jaded Incorporated was born out of their mutual adoration for the Post-Punk and New Wave music of the early 1980′s, and Ghettotech music in the 90′s Detroit scene.

14KT is currently revving up to release another duo collaboration album with Michigan rapper Ro Spit, entitled "RSXGLD" to be released in 2017.
