What Genre Are You Really?

These days there's a lot of blurred lines. Ask an artist what type of music they do, you'll get answers like "a lil bit of everything" or even the popular "it doesn't really fall under a genre". Right. Truth is, it does. For very real reasons, (like getting paid for instance), your record needs to fall under one of these genre classifications. Not only that, deciding exactly where you want to fall adds focus to your sound. Different isn't always about doing what no one else is doing. Often times, it's simply about doing it better, or rather, in your own unique way.

Thanks to founder,  Pezo Johnson from Streetz 94.5, music is saving the life of many by teaching kids on how to redirect their anger or pain to write a poem, rap, or short story. Finding alternative ways to sculpt their anger into positive energy. The program is called Pain On Paper/Poems Over Pistols.


If interested in more information be sure to follow Pezo on his twitter.
