ACE HOOD - Before They Were Famous. Before the Florida rapper would wake up in a new Bugatti, make it on the cover of 2009 XXL Freshman list and be the first artist to sign with DJ Khaled's We The Best music label.

DJ KHALED, music industry megaproducer and recording artist was a part of your student group, he may take this young man out to lunch and  remind him as well as all of us in his book The Keys, and I quote: “We The Best means exactly what it says. I didn’t say I’m the best. That’s an important distinction; I said we. That means me, Fan Luv, my team, and everybody who’s got love and positive energy. Let me ask you this: If somebody came up to you and asked, “Are you, the beat writer, chef, producer, director? What would you say? If you don’t declare that you’re the best, I’m disappointed. You are supposed to say that you are the best because let me tell you, you are the best. You need to own it with confidence and conviction. Say it to yourself first a thousand times, and then say it to others a thousand more. For real, Is somebody better than you? Nah. We The Best. You have to speak your success into existence because absolutely no one else will do it for you. That’s why I started my first label, I called it We The Best. Were we the best yet? That’s up for debate. But did we have the drive and the passion and the necessary dedication to be the best? Without a doubt, Muhammad Ali, rest in peace, said, “I am the greatest, I said that before I knew I was.” DJ said, make your life about fulfilling your vision and dream big.” End Quote Three published authors in middle school are successfully overcoming the pressures of a youth culture challenged by bullying, drugs, alcohol, and suicide.  They share why and how they are succeeding. It's compassionate and fun. Your heart will smile.

 Laza Morgan was Literally born and raised in a musical cradle. He was heavily influenced by the reggae music of household and the records made by his father, Jamaican music legend and hit maker Denroy Morgan, who stormed his way onto American radio in the early 1980's with his club anthem “I'll do anything for you”. With his family's strong Jamaican roots and frequent trips to kingston and St.Thomas as driving inspirations, it didn't take long for Laza to completely embrace the world of music. His experiences in Springfield and Brooklyn influenced him heavily too as he began to incorporate Hip Hop, R&B and Pop into his musical lexicon. fter graduating from high school, Laza and two of his siblings formed the Hip Hop/Reggae group LMS. They toured the world with Morgan Heritage, the internationally recognized roots reggae band founded by his father and several of his brothers and sisters.2010 proved to be the culmination of many years of hard work that Laza had put into his craft. He signed with Elektra records in February. Laza was then featured on british pop sensation Alexandra Burke's hit single “Start Without You” which topped the UK and European singles charts in September. He was also featured on Flo Rida's hit single “21” from the album “The Only One”. His forthcoming Elektra debut yielded a hit single “This Girl” that was featured in Disney's feature film Step Up 3D and its smash soundtrack. “This Girl” generated over 8 million hits on youtube and created a buzz that span the globe. Laza's throwback second single “One By One” was a hypnotic love song featuring dancehall idol Mavado, who is now signed to the We The Best music group.

We had a great interview with Dave Kusek (instructor at Berklee School of Music amongst other accomplishments), the co-author of book The Future of Music: Manifesto for the Digital Music Revolution. Some of the subject matter we touched on during the interview included how technology has totally changed the current state of music industry in the past 10 - 15 years, how hard working independent artists currently have some of the most optimal chances to distribute, promote and sell their music to the masses due to things like internet innovations (Web 2.0, self-distribution options for music & content, etc.), where the current music industry should change to be both profitable and give music to the people they way they want, reaching out for niche audiences (esp. in the different genres of Black Music) and more!
