New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Affluent PR Marketing & Media) Anais Nin once quoted "Life is a full circle, widening until it joins the circle motions of the infinite." In the same like manner music and the orient has also has become a full circle journey for AFFLUENT RECORDS Ceo Oscar who recently launched a new division to the AFFLUENT brand, entitled AFFLUENT JAPAN.
AFFLUENT JAPAN is a new label division under the New York City AFFLUENT RECORDS brand that enables artists in JAPAN to be directly distributed developed produced and branded by urban music industry professionals to be retail ready for the worldwide digital urban market.
"There are so many great artists in Japan that don't have the outlet or connection to become part of an American Urban
Music Brand, AFFLUENT has opened their complete distribution, label services, music production and promotion channels to be able to work with these artist overseas and create their presence in the urban market and make them retail ready properly" says Affluent Records CEO Oscar Sanchez.
Our first artists to launch the label expansion in JAPAN will be ReverbNation #1 chart topping Rap Group stationed out of Japan called DARK EMPIRE. DARK EMPIRE consists of group members BLACK HART, RAW DEAL, HITMAN, AUDACITY, ANONYMOUS THE RAPPER, BLACK REIGN, TOMMY PRAY CHRIS, YOUNG POLO, TR13, KUNTRY, KURISU, & CASH.
From Multiple places on the map of the USA to include Florida New York, Texas, New Jersey, and Michigan to the streets of Ayase Shi Japan, Dark
Empire has emerged and started the next big movement in hip hop. Fueled by diversity that comes natural from this collective. Dark
Empire combines the styles and tradition of hip hop, from New York grime, to Midwest hustle, down to southern swag all of it beautifully blended in to one harmonic unique tone. The best way to describe Dark
Empire is to consider Wu Tang Clan if each member came from a place other than New York, or if the Wu was comprised of the premiere rappers of their area during that era. Dark
Empire has arrived and will be here for years to come.
"During the summer of 2012 I knew we had reached out plateau with as far as what an indie group can do with the different stairs of distribution promotions and marketing. That's when I reached out to Affluent Records CEO and played him our music showed him our movement of which we call Dark Empire. He and I worked out a distribution deal for the release of DE mixtapes album and singles from each of the artists under the AFFLUENT JAPAN / AFFLUENT RECORDS brand. AFFLUENT has the same digital worldwide distribution as a major. So that and along with the label services and the ability of having Oscar Sanchez work hands on the projects with us is the key to be able to get to that next level." Says DARK EMPIRE president
