RedBoyy

Star Boyz Music Group is excited to announce the release of the hot new track from REDBOYY called, “RIHYONCE (She Flawless).”

REDBOYY, also CEO of the label explains, “The title is a combination of Rihanna and Beyonce’s names, my two favorite female artists.” The song is produced by multi-platinum duo, Nard and B. “The song is based on my love of females with both the good girl, bad girl characteristics,” REDBOYY said.

According to a recent article in VIBE magazine, R& B and Rap sales continue to thrive while digital sales decreased for the first time last year. “Despite the e-decline, R&B and rap artists still managed to make good numbers. Justin Timberlake’s 20/20 Experience was the only album in 2013 that reached more than a million units, with 2.4 million units sold. R&B, which houses rap, was the only genre that saw an increase in sales in 2013, moving 50.1 million units in 2012 to 50.7 million units.”

Rob Barr

Rob Barr got his start in music while living in the Chicagoland area back in 1994. His Band Wally had moderate success in the 90’s opening up for acts like the Bloodhound Gang, Jill Sobule, and a Chicago favorite, a late 70’s early 80’s success Off Broadway.

In 1999 Wally broke up and Rob moved to San Diego, CA. a few years later to work for an organization helping veterans find careers within the construction trades.  As time went on the opportunities for a music career got smaller and smaller he focused more on business and eventually started his own company A Hero Foundation 501(c)(3) to help veterans and their spouses transition to any career that would fit their path.

While creating music is hard these days with a wife and two kids, Rob still find the time to write and record songs in his private home studio. Today he has over an albums worth of material and want to donate the proceeds from his music to his nonprofit to help bring brand awareness, to the organization and raise money to build new programs to help returning veterans and their families.

You can find Rob Barr’s songs on any applications such as ITunes, Rhapsody, and Spotify and purchase songs for only .99. Seeing that the organization is dealing with veterans, according to Rob, they do not want to run donation campaigns to those who have served stating that it would defeat the purpose of what we are trying to do.

Take a listen and if you like know that you will be supporting a good cause.

-"Getting by" (Produced by Getparadox) is a bass heavy moshpit rant inspired by some really annoying people during a particularly humid Summer week!

-"We Aint Leavin" (produced by Leeyou Danceey) is an upbeat song, inspired by a vacation trip to South Beach, Florida. After partying and more partying, Getparadox wanted to acknowledge our reluctance to end the good times we have in the presence of our best friends and family. The chorus affirms, "We aint leavin till six in the morning!".

 

-"Feel it coming" (Produced by Getparadox) is a sonically dramatic song about the anticipation of success after patiently dealing with personal challenges and misunderstandings.

 

All songs available on iTunes, Amazon, Google & EMusic.
