Brandy, a multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning R&B/pop singer, songwriter, and actress, was one of the most successful multi-media stars of the ’90s, thanks to her constant presence on both the pop and R&B charts, her popular hit sitcom Moesha and the classic made-for-TV movie phenomenon Cinderella, which attracted more than 60 million viewers. She has sold more than 40M albums worldwide and is ranked one of the best-selling female artists in American music history by the RIAA. She has also earned a Grammy®, an AMA, two Soul Train Music Awards, two NAACP Image Awards, three Billboard Awards, four MTV Awards, six Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards, and many more. Brandy also gained fame for starring in several film and TV projects including the 1998 horror sequel, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, BET Networks series The Game, and as a judge on the #1 rated talent competition, America’s Got Talent. Additionally, Brandy has also been a spokesmodel for Cover Girl, DKNY and Ultima/Kaneka brand by Brandy. In spring of 2015, Brandy made her Broadway debut in the Tony Award- winning, record-breaking musical smash, Chicago as Roxie Hart. Chicago is the #1 longest-running American musical in Broadway history and Brandy is now a part of that history. Her last single (with Daniel Caesar) soared to #1 at Urban AC radio, has over 36M streams on Spotify alone, and was nominated for a GRAMMY® for Best R&B Performance. Anticipation is high for her forthcoming album - It’s been 8 years since she released her last album, Two Eleven. She also celebrated the 25th anniversary of her 3x Platinum, self-titled debut last year. TOP SELLING DMA MARKETS 1. Chicago, IL 4. Los Angeles, CA 2. Philadelphia, PA 5. Scaramento-Stockton, CA 3.

ALCATRAZZ TO RELEASE BRAND NEW ALBUM BORN INNOCENT THROUGH SILVER LINING MUSIC

The hard-hitting, melodic heavy metal band Alcatrazz will once again throw down a studio gauntlet on June 26th 2020 with Born Innocent, their first studio venture since 1986’s Dangerous Game. Alongside the unique vocal prowess and range of star frontman and founding member Graham Bonnet, Born Innocent also features fellow founding members Jimmy Waldo and Gary Shea. And from the classic album art, featuring the mighty rock itself, Born Innocent is a journey into the sort of heavy, melodic and supremely articulated hard rock that is a cornerstone of the likes of Rainbow and the Michael Schenker Group, territory Alcatrazz successfully strode in the ‘80s before going on hiatus.

Born Innocent features guest appearances from Chris Impellitteri, who wrote the music and played all guitars on the arpeggio-powered “Born Innocent”, with Bonnet’s vocals soaring to old-school heights, as did Bob Kulick for the majestic “I Am The King”. Virtuoso Japanese guitar maestro Nozomu Wakai similarly wrote and played guitars on the double-kick steel-plated Irish warrior ode “Finn McCool”, while the six-string legend that is Steve Vai wrote “Dirty Like The City”, with Bonnet once again powerfully hitting notes that are beyond the business of most humans. Besides the supreme musicianship, Born Innocent features genuine storyteller lyrics courtesy of Bonnet who revels in showing he loves the scent of an entertaining tale, proudly illustrated on the storming lead single “Polar Bear” which bristles with robust old-world adventure.

Though Alcatrazz might well have been Born Innocent, their new album shows they’ve obviously learnt some robust and rawkus things along the way.

Originally released 3 December 1978, Back to Earth would be Cat Steven’s 11th studio album and his last for almost 30 years. 1977 and 1978 were a period of great change for Cat Stevens. He had formally embraced the Muslim faith, changed his name to Yusuf Islam, been awarded the Sun Peace Award by the United Nations and had reunited with producer Paul Samwell-Smith and guitarist/collaborator Alun Davies to embark on one last record before turning his back on the music industry, seemingly for good. Sonically, the album was a return to the acoustic sound of Yusuf’s earlier Super Deluxe Boxset | List Price: $156.98 Release Date: 7/31/20 | Discount: No Discounts work. Intended, in part, as his swan song to the recording Packaging: Super Deluxe Boxset includes 5CD, 2LP industry. 2006’s An Other Cup saw Yusuf return to music and and Blu Ray and 60 page book with a re-found verve for his exceptional catalogue of work. UPC: 4050538441932 | Returnable: No Box Lot: 1 | Units Per Set: 8 | File Under: Rock YUSUF/CAT STEVENS “Butterfly”/”Toy Heart” 7” Single Release Date: 7/31/20

Released for the very first time as part of the super deluxe reissue of Yusuf/Cat Stevens 1978 record Back To Earth; two previously unheard tracks recorded during the original sessions, “Butterfly” and “Toy Heart.” YUSUF chose to discount the tracks from the final cut of the record because he considered them to lyrically have too much of a “pop single flavor.” “When I recorded” Yusuf explains, “there would always be one or two songs left over which somehow didn’t fit the mood of the album I wanted to build. Though the songs were good, they were parked on the side.” Both tracks are now released as a very special double A side 7” single. With artwork contribution by Yusuf himself. “Butterfly” is a soaring, groove-based stylistic shift into Philly soul, replete with swooning strings. “Toy Heart,” meanwhile, is a propulsive rocker that in its writer’s mind was “like a song for Elvis.”
