Charitable Organizations Benefit from Number One Single

Don’t Forget (2020) by Spencer Hall & Justin Aoki

“Don’t Forget (2020)” by Spencer Hall & Justin Aoki recently hit Number One on the Top 40 Pop Chart . Proceeds from the sales and streaming this thoughtful track go to benefit the World Central Kitchen and the NAACP .

This is a good song. Plus, it creates an inspirational atmosphere. This jam influences the listener to not forget that the future is not set in stone. We have to do our part to ensure survival.

Spencer Hall initiated the creation of this song with an instrumental template. He worked with producers Professor H and Topher Ngo to make it happen.

I created a template and wrote some instrumental parts for my first release and passed them along to a producer friend of mine, Professor H, who added rhythm, percussion, and effects, found a guitarist, and put everything together. Another producer friend of mine, Topher Ngo, recorded my and Justin Aoki’s vocals in a small home studio. ~ Spencer Hall

It is very thoughtful to create a song that will assist the World Central Kitchen and the NAACP. However, Spencer Hall has asperations to someday write Broadway musicals and possibly get hired by Disney.

I would love to become a songwriter for a major label, as well as one day co-write a Broadway musical and get hired by Disney. I grew up watching Disney’s animated musicals of the ‘90s and would love to contribute to Disney’s musical legacy. ~ Spencer Hall

Help these well deserving charities by supporting this song. They will receive 100% of streaming proceeds and 50% of digital sales. Access this awesome release here.

Independent Artist Sofi Maeda Considers Major Labels

Sofi Maeda

Indie artist Sofi Maeda stormed onto two charts this week with her new single “Ashita.”

She climbed onto the Top 40 Pop Chart this week at Number 39. Plus, she sprung onto the All Genre/International Chart at Number 13.

She has an album, due within the next two months.

Her talent has lead to Indie success, but she has not ruled out signing with a major label.

Sofi Maeda recently spoke with BMS Radio Chicago.

Are you looking to remain independent or would you prefer a major label deal?

We’re considering joining a label promoting pop-rock, pop-punk, alternative and similar music in future. For example, We Are Triumphant, Fearless Records, Hopeless Records, Pure Noise Records, Rise Records etc.

If anything, what would you change about the music industry today?

In Russia, there is no real support for the bands of our genre. Most of the radio stations are promoting a limited choice of music, so there is a strong lack of genre diversity. In short, more genres need to be present and supported.

Do you ever get the chance to perform live?
Not yet I have plans, planned and anyone reading this with ideas let me know. My heart and ears are wide awake and willing to accept beautiful offers.

Are you looking to remain independent or would you prefer a major label deal?
Independent and working with major label deals. My heart and ears are open just like my pockets.

If anything, what would you change about the music industry today?
Getting to these kids about stopping the drug abuse, seeking proper help and getting on the asses of the Adults who are straight adulterated.

Do you have any advice for up-and-coming artists?
Do you, don’t compare and go for it. Get out of your way and be yourself. If you are addicted to drugs/alcohol get help right now.
Love and respect each other. Know you are always blessed. Keep it simple! If you’re serious get your name trademarked so you own it.

Anything else you want to say on the people?
Always Dream and do it big! Enjoy the experiences and love each other. I love my Momma and had it tattooed on my left wrist when 2chainz dropped that mater piece “Momma didn’t raise no ho” it happened as soon as I got into a tattoo studio. That’s the truth you can see it on my Instagram photos.
