Dallas, TX (Top40 Charts/ Rothschild Public Relations/ Mastaminds Entertainment) - Reggie G, under the Masta Minds Entertainment label, today announced the release of his debut album, 'Reggie Who?' The album features Reggie G rapping, writing and co-producing with some of hip hop's biggest and best known names, and guest appearances by artists such as
Chamillionaire along with music videos and video montages for every song on the album.
The first three singles from the album, 'I Stay On It', 'Presidential' and 'Whatever Kind You Like' showcase the talent of this Dallas, TX based hip hop artist, who is breaking out of the traditional genres of music with his take on hip hop, and shattering the stereotypes traditionally held of hip hop and rap artists. Holding a Masters Degree in Economics, Reggie leads by example, teaching economics as a college professor in Dallas, TX.
'I Stay On It', with a guest appearance by Grammy Award winning rapper, Chamillionaire, received urban radio airplay, charting on the Billboard Rhythmic Top 40 and Hot Rap Tracks charts in 2010. Having spent these last years building his fan base and perfecting his music in the southern region, Reggie G is now ready to branch out and bring his music to the rest of the world. Production features some of music's most accomplished producers from Jerome Harmon, Chris Godbey, The Villanova, Ensayne Wayne, Hypnotiq Productions and mixed by Grammy Award winning Tre Nagella, this album brings together some of music's most knowledgeable music talents.
The album, a compilation of some of Reggie G's most forward thinking and catchy sounds, is sure to make waves in the hip hop world, featuring the incredible versatility of this break out artist. Singles from the album have been featured on CBS's CSI and also showcased on ABC's The Forgotten TV show.
An artist committed to bringing relevant music to people, Reggie noticed a disconnect between an artist's true emotion in the musical lyrics of everyday hip hop and what was happening in real life, and those lives of people around him. With this album, Reggie wants to keep the listeners in tuned to his visions and opinions but also entertained with a selection of catchy hooks and witty lyrics.
'Having worked on this album for some time, I've gotten to better understand how much my personal life has changed me by staying in school unlike most of my friends from childhood that had major setbacks from making poor choices in their lives,' said Reggie G. 'Most people are not fortunate to have their opinions heard on a public stage in their lifetime and rap has given me that outlet.' 'With this outlet I have created songs I believe people both fortunate and less fortunate will connect with, since my songs describe various thoughts and times in all of our lives.'
Other guest appearances on the album feature Corbin Corona, Laconda Davis, Multi ID, D-Shep, Matt G. The album, due to be released on October 26, 2010, can be purchased on iTunes, Rhapsody, Zune, Amazon and MySpace, among others and will also be available from Best Buy & through Mastamindslive.com or Reggieglive.com in physical distribution after November 2nd.
