Pierre Fleming: A Hidden R & B Legend

 

Vibe Highlights

“I feel like R&B is making its comeback I’m just waiting on the big re-entry so to speak.”

He had one feature on the EP which was whine one time ft Alex flow

 Best advice someone ever gave him:

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.


You may not have known but NC has many amazing talents and this singer/ songwriter and or Artist: Pierre Fleming, who was born and raised in Wilson NC is one of the hidden Legends. He is highly devoted to music, and he shares a passion for video production & photography.

 

His current single is called SHOW ME which was released in 2021 along with his EP entitled Seven Vibes. The inspiration that motivated him to create the pair was based on past experiences. He witnessed relatable perspectives through the eyes of others and wanted to vibe along with topics that would captivate his audience.  


He always had the ability to sing yet at the age of 18 he started writing his own songs because he didn’t know of any dedicated songwriters. In the beginning of his career, he started with many local indie concerts. He even won a first-place award in a local competition in 2014. He stayed inspired by all the prominent singers of that time; MJ, R Kelly, Usher, Tyrese, Joe just to name a few and each Artist had a different element that he liked, which shows in his music today.


We listen to Artist collaborations every day. The Artists go on tour, end up on billboards, and magazines together. So Wait! Wait! before you continue reading go check out one of Pierre Flemings' songs then close your eyes just for a minuet and imagine reading a flyer with the names: Pierre Fleming and H.E.R ( 5 time grammy winner) on the cover. The harmonies are undeniable and with such a smooth connected sound and relatable lyrics from both parties there is no other choice but to sit back and listen.


An Artist collaboration is just one door. There are many unique opportunities for him to be successful. We will hear more songs, see more music videos and live performances. He also wants to eventually start his own label and sign his own artists. You never know you could be the next big thing to blow up on his label, so keep your ear to the streets!

The Twins Organic Vibe

 

#Twins #OrganicVibe

“America loves twins especially handsome ones like us lol”

 

 Best Advice 


Their grandfather: 
"Stay focused and stay together..." 


 

The identical twin Artists’ aka Karolina Pride and Benny Broadway from Fuquay Varina NC bring a new flame of energy to the music scene! They have performed from NC to Alabama. The blogs, venues and the radio stations are in such an uproar over them!

 

They definitely have music in their bones but also, Pride actually attended the art institute of Atlanta for audio production and music business and he’s been doing music his whole life starting early in their grandfathers’ church playing the drums.

 

 

When it comes to the music industry it’s best to be as versatile as one can be; they like to consider themselves “a jack of all trades.” They were able to create their own sound to include rapping and singing. The best part is they bring passionate energy like during all performances.

 

 

Since they’re twins’ they have shared just about everything from a sandwich to their mothers’ womb lol Their first studio experience was fun but a learning process for both of them. The challenge? They had to adapt to the studio, the technical and professional environment throughout the entire creative music process.


One of the truths behind idea making it in the music business is to find motivation and inspiration. In reflection Pride shares that he got his inspiration from writing poetry early in his life and learned to find lyrics to fit his own personality and style. He then passed those same skills to Broadway to empower him during his battling rapping and writing songs. 



In most cases Artists have a few favs or a favorite on their albums. Prides’ favorite song on their current album has to be: Slayed lol because it’s just a “well rounded track full of energy Swagga and personality” shares Pride with a quirky smirk and confidence. But on the other hand Broadways’ favorite track is Scorned because of the pain he felt while making the song. 


Now when it comes to performing they have a good attitude about it. They could have a crowd of 5,000 or 5 people in the audience either way they still make the most of the experience and have fun! In a thoughtful reflection they share their most memorable stage moment was performing at Kick Fest at the Red Hat Amphitheater. It was the biggest venue they have been in so far and the Artists on that bill were epic. 


 


Congratulations to 1Uptwinz on getting their track: NU DRIP with Lvitto in a new NIKE basketball ad campaign. If you haven’t heard it check out a sample here:


ALSO They’re currently working on: 2 Different 2 and working on new visuals. So be on the look out for all new material from this dynamic twin power!

 

You can find them on any social media platform via @1uptwinz and you can find their music on any and all digital platforms.

Creative Freedom: Illezo (MATURA)

 Quotes to Love

“I’m not talking about getting 360 deals when I say I hate labels. I think when we call ourselves something specific, we run the risk of boxing ourselves into a category and limit our creative freedom.” 

~On Titles in the Music Industry~

Can we turn it up for Royal Oak, Michigan?!!!!!!!

Yes, because with about 10 shows (or more) under his belt and a passion for versatility in styles and genres of Pop and Rap we see that he is running at full speed. Illezo stopped for a moment to share a little bit about his love for music and we are thankful! So, let’s check it out…

He comes from a creative and entrepreneurial family, but music was not something he was exposed to at a young age; neither of his parents played instruments or sang so music was a new route for both creative expression and business.

Many people listen to music to escape from their reality but then some listen so they can connect with other people. He has gotten more vulnerable in his music to really bring out his abilities. He really enjoys people and loves connecting through music and performance. He shares with full humility…”I want someone who has been looking at a puzzle piece of themselves for a long time to see that it’s a perfect fit in a more complete picture of who they are as a human and not a piece to hide or discard.”

He believes that his is strongest skill(s) definitely emerge in songwriting. He is intentional with his word choice and takes his time to make sure he’s saying things specifically in a way that conveys the message he intends for it to be heard in. He practices singing, but in his mind he will be there soon. He definitely considers himself an MC as well because his live shows are both his favorite and the most impactful parts of his career. In a moment of reflection with a smile he shares: “When you can connect with people in a room and create positive energy and experience, there isn’t a better feeling.”

 

His current project is called MATURA, and it’s really an exploration into more of the pop side of his music. He’s been working on singing and production more so it will show more of his versatility.

 



When it comes to writing music, that responsibility isn't just on Pat it’s also shared with his team. Since starting to compose more instrumentally, he’s worked with members of his team “much more talented than I am” says he.., to help him build out the best music he can. One day he will write all of the lyrics, then other days he makes the entire instrumental, but then again there are times when he writes the vocal melody, so there isn’t just one thing that he always does and the collaboration definitely makes for better Art.

When Pat was in high school, he had a very motivating English teacher by the name of Jason Jones who encouraged him to continue writing poetry. He enjoyed it as an outlet. He didn’t share much of his work, but he learned a lot about himself in the process. Which opened the door for him to become a band kid and his mom talked him into taking a course at the local community college at night where he learned more about video editing and some basic music production. 

After putting a few songs together and falling in love with the process, he bought some equipment and started writing and recording with a few friends. He continued to work on music and moved more into working on his own individual journey. He found his voice and began collaborating with other incredible artists and meeting different creative people to work with has been one of the best parts of being involved with music. He really loves the whole process because there are no rules and you get to paint any picture you want on a canvas of silence.

When Artists create they have at least one song that they really were feeling during the process. Of course for Pat this song changes day to day, but his favorite song right now is from his upcoming project called: Autumn and he worked with Billy Famous to create it. Billy is an incredible creative force and he handled most of the production on the song. We work very well together and can grab the baton when one of us is stuck on a portion. He’s another member of the AGiLE SOCiETY family, which is the collective of brilliant Artists that he works with.

 

 



When you finally have an opportunity to step out on a stage in front of people that love and support your music it’s tough to tell which performances you really loved but Pat has vivid memories of every show he’s done. He did a show at Bleu Detroit where he met JR and from there really started taking music seriously. The crowd was incredible that night. He also did a show at PJ’s Lager House most recently and, again, his crowd always shows off for him. At the PJ’s show, he also had a full camera crew making him feel like a Rockstar. He also performed a few songs with Kobierich which were unforgettable. The energy at each show is something he is forever grateful for and he appreciates everyone always coming out and having a great time with him.


When challenges arise, there are many different ways to approach them, but with Pat he feels like every day has a new lesson to impact his career. It’s been a long journey so far and he’s loved every minute of it. One experience in particular that impacted him greatly was when he started performing live. It changed everything, from his approach to songwriting to his production. He writes now to account for crowd interaction, connection and engagement. He includes more builds and breaks in his productions as that creates a special type of energy that fans can really feel.

 

Most Artist don’t just sing or rap they also have other ventures. As a creator and someone who has grown up in a business-focused family of entrepreneurs, he is always up to something. He has a side project for design, social media, branding, PR and video content called the Nebulae Agency. He is also working to build out a course with an incredible engineer Rudy Youmans through Studio 221B. He has a new idea every day so he tries his very best to stay focused on the things he’s doing. But, he’s really a utility player on every team he’s on so if they need something to be successful, he learns what he needs to or he finds someone who is a good fit to fill the role.

 

      

 

 

ILLEZO Advice

If you have any interest in any medium of self-expression, do it. There is a very high chance you’re going to be awful when you first start. I know I was. But keep trying if you enjoy it. You’ll find that you continue to improve with each project you work on, and you’ll continue to surprise yourself with what you can create. Go out and do it. Trust in yourself and understand that using your personal taste as a guide will be what makes you unique.

Don’t get into it for the money. It’s fine to work to build a career and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t intend to make this a full time job, but I don’t create to get rich. I make music because I love doing it and I’m thankful every time I’m able to get paid for doing something I truly love.

Laritza Orce: God-Mother of Credit

Laritza Orce
grew up in an Island in the Caribbean Seas called: Cuba.



When she started in life her focus was accounting.
She always had a mind for business, but she never saw herself owning one. Initially instead of owning a business, her idea was to be a great employee for an already established company. 


In 2013, she was recruited to become a front desk associate by

Sheila Bryan. This beautiful spirit encouraged her by saying that she saw potential in her, which she didn't see in herself. Ms. Bryan encouraged her to read, listen to inspirational audio, and visit business or women's empowerment conventions.

 

But she always gave her excuses, yet Ms. Bryan never gave up on her and even asked, "where do you see yourself in 5 years?" During that time, she was flat out broke and miserable in a toxic marriage. The thought of being in the same position for another 5 years made her cringe. The next day she went with Ms. Bryan to a business meeting and that’s when she made the decision to become an entrepreneur. Sheila has been her mentor ever since. 

 

 


Laritza Credit Solutions


Her company's primary focus is credit restoration and financial services. They also offer services such as Will preparation and debt management. 


The focus is on educating and empowering our communities. They have helped many families around the country go from bad credit to homeowners, which has also inspired her to pursue her Real Estate license. We do not have awards at the moment, but we are awarded by our company for continuously doing good work within our communities.

 


When owning a business people look at you as a leader. But there are different qualities that are associated with being a “Leader.” Laritza believes that the first quality a leader must have is: HONESTY.


It all comes down to how honest you are with God first, then yourself, your team, and customers. Her mentor once told her, “I prefer to lose a customer with the truth than to win a customer with a lie.” Second, she values: CARE. People will forget your name, but they will never forget how you made them feel. When you truly care for people, your team

and your customers will go the extra mile for your leadership and your company.


Challenges happen every day but one that can be a daily challenge is self doubt. The devil is real and he will remind you every day of how unworthy you are. There are happy customers all the time but even when her company has the best months, she still asks herself if she deserves it.

 



The idea of growing and evolving is very critical and important. It helps to have inspiration, so in sharing Laritza personally loves and admires Coach Stormy. Why? She is passionate about her business and honest to the point of it sometimes hurting, but she cares for her people. She is not in her business, but she admires her leadership. business and honest to the point of it sometimes hurting, but she cares for her people. She is not in her business, but she admires her leadership. 

 

When people come into business they have all these expectations that they will make a lot of money in a certain number of days but the reality is owning a business or starting a business is HARD WORK, so the common mistake is going into business with passion but no business plan. Get a mentor in your field, create a business plan, read, and inform yourself before you go into business. 

 



Sometimes when you have a passion for something it’s hard to

stay focused, so setting goals is a great way to maintain that. So, the goal is to help 10,000 become homeowners in the next 5 years and take the company to a 7-figure income. Sounds exciting!

 

BET YOU DIDNT KNOW


#1. 

Laritza is an excellent cook. 

In another life, she was a chef! 


#2.
Also, If she could work with any top name in the
entertainment industry she would love to work with:


Adele


WHY? Well, here is what Laritza has to say about her…”She is a great woman who is not afraid to be real about her pain and doesn’t hide behind a fake image. You can feel her pain as well as her love and happiness through her music. She is strong enough to be vulnerable in front of millions of people. She is talented, humble, honest and likable. Adele if you're reading this and you need help with your credit, I can help you!"

LVITTO: THE RED WORD SPEAKER

 

I'm not sure when the idea of "Good Quality and the concept of: TRUTH came back into existence but I'm very certain that once I heard his music that Truth and GOOD QUALITY were back with an amplified excellence and elevated passion! 


Successful Quotes to Remember

    "Be YOURSELF Speak YOUR truth 

No one and do you better than YOU."

    "I don’t follow the wave I make the wave."

 

LVitto

 

He is from Durham, NC aka the “Bull City.” He’s an Artist, Supreme Lyricist, MC hybrid, Investor and CEO of a full-service entertainment company called Family Bizness. He considers himself the “Red Word” speaker, as he speaks truth similar to the way the words of Jesus words were highlighted in the Bible.

His grandfather used to sing and play instruments for his church. Yet, the gift of creative art has always been passed down from his father’s side of the family. Lvittos' passion for music was conceived at age 10 when he first saw the “Victory” music video by Biggie Smalls. It was his first music video that he’s ever seen with such a cinematic visual, not to mention, in his opinion Biggie delivered a captivating performance lyrically. The entire roll-out compelled him to make music. 

Now, as a Creative Mind or Artist we pull our inspirations from different experiences in life, thoughts and reflections. So, our creativity can come from pretty much anywhere; from artwork with artistic influences from Jean-Michel Basquiat, Pablo Picasso, and then of course inspiration from family, the weather, the news, energy from other people and then naturally from: life. In his opinion, "life is the most influential component" that ignites his drive, passion, and creativity! 



BUT THERE IS SO MUCH MORE

It’s safe to say that the 90s music era became his BIGGEST inspiration highlighting some the most lyrically diverse and entertaining Artists’ in the music game such as: Michael Jackson, Jay-Z, 50 Cent, Eminem, Fabolous, and Lloyd Banks. Jay-Z, Nas, Tupac, Common, Q-Tip, Busta Rhymes, Bone Thugs N Harmony, and many others... 


(#MemoriesShared)

One time, he saved his money and purchased a handheld tape recorder which he took everywhere. He and his best friend use to record in the bathroom treating it as their “studio.” Yet, over time, his skills advanced and he began battling in his neighborhood well on into his high school years. 

His nickname was “Los”, that’s short for his name, Carlos. But, that name quickly changed to “Los Vegas” because he was the youngest kid in cyphers with young adults and he still managed to steal the spotlight each time! Of course, with increased popularity and his advanced delivery and wordplay, the older guys in the neighborhood never wanted to invite him go to their studio.

He shares: “I can still remember hearing them playing their music down the street and me saying to myself, “I’m way better than them. Fast forward to now, I’ve recorded two critically acclaimed projects, have music streaming online and the radio. I also have a well-established company that provides management and opportunities for rising artists both locally and beyond!”


Name of His Current Album Entitled:

SOON

The inspiration for this album started with these reflections: “In life, people work hard to achieve the ultimate goal of success; however, some are never 100% confident that they will succeed. In 2019, I believed that the work I have put in throughout the years was starting to be recognized and respected, and the music I was creating at the time was reinventing... So, he collaborated with a few NC greats and made classics with them all. The sound of the music amplified success and it felt like a victory lap so he called it “SOON.”

He's participated in several performance that his company has thrown. But, his most memorable show was his companys’ first event at Pinhook in downtown Durham, NC. A concert series called “The Pinnacle” was created to showcase Durham’s top Artists of multiple genres. The highlight of the event: They packed the venue on a Thursday night for their FIRST EVENT!


FUTURE OF THE MUSIC

In accomplishing his music goals he holds a “Phenomenal roster of Artists within Family Bizness: Mally Evana, Ethan Taylor, Blessed Wins and Kronoz Time. But with his most recent album he collaborated with Artists such as: Swife, Shame, Jooselor, Chyna Vonne, Fess, 3am, Quentin Rashad, Tiyane Clarke and that’s just to name a few.

As most are aware with any levels of success there will be certain challenges as LVITTO reflects with sincerity: 

"I’m a genuine straightforward person; however, in this industry, not everyone is in it for your best interest. I had to recognize that fact and learn to navigate around the vultures of the industry."

The music that he’s creating now speaks to his current position mentally, spiritually, and as an Intelligent Black Man in America. He goes on to share that “the music he is currently working on is some of the best he has ever created.  The LIGHTS, CAMERAS, and some incredible visuals will be coming out very soon! Also, he plans on reaching out to the youth so that they can grow with music. He hopes to guide them in a direction of entrepreneurship and ownership!

The Inspiration. The Hope: Mr. Everything

The idea and hope behind “Inspiration” is definitely needed during these difficult and trying times; so where would one look for that inspiration? (You may be wondering silently… )Well, I know a Man and his name is Roosevelt Conyers but his ring name is "Mr. Everything" Victor Andrews.

As a child, before he found wrestling he dabbled in track for awhile but once he became more disciplined and focused he discovered his true passion for and within professional wrestling. Wrestling? Yes! You read that correctly: 

W-R-E-S-T-L-I-N-G 

His eyes as a child grew wide eyed and full of wonder as his biggest inspiration and motivation: The Undertaker


stomped onto the scene with full confidence ready to twist and turn the arms and legs of his his next opponent(s). The noise! The cheers from the audience and fans aligned with the hard dark atmosphere of his character made for one bad ass moment that will never leave the hearts of true wrestling fans!  

Mr. Everything has always admired The Undertaker and still does to this day. He admires the way he performs and his whole presence throughout his 30 year career has impressed him a great deal!



 

Mr. Everything still remains a humble guy even though he is knows he is the best of the best. So he chuckles when asked how many matches has he had so far but then replies: “I gotta throw a ball park figure of close to 2,000 matches in my 11 year career all over the US.” He goes on to shared that just about every match is memorable in their own way but at the very top of his list would have to be the tag match he had on WWE NXT against Heavy Machinery.


In order to be as successful as he is in the wrestling world he has to have some support and that support comes from his family. His mother, naturally loves and encourages his passion for wrestling! She tells him all the time to keep pushing forward and never let anyone stop him from getting where he wants to be (And all your fans, followers... agree! Keep going you got this!)

 

Now, when you have a desire to accomplish a goal, sometimes you have to make sacrifices. The two things he didn’t know before he started taking wrestling seriously was #1: the amount of time it would take him away from his family. #2: the long hours on the road and constant traveling it takes to be successful. Those two things alone keep him away from home a lot. As an added bonus he also wasn't aware he’d love wrestling as much as he does nor did know he would be given the opportunities he’s received from it so far. 


HE is not only a wrestler but he is also an exceptional Father. 

So, as a wrestler he as to be coachable, open to suggestions and criticism. Yet, as a father he has to be available, flexible, open to change, as well as being able to teach his son and learn as he goes. 


So, I'm getting some pretty awesome vibes and I'm totally feeling like he has a bright and promising future, what about you? Oh by the way his major goal and ultimate plan is to utilize his connections to get a tryout with a major company so he can get signed! 


He is determined to make it happen this year! Of course, right now due to Covid restrictions keeping wrestling events very limited he’s been working on some acting and modeling projects too. 


He’s also got a couple of writing projects and a TV series he’s working on that's due to be shown soon that will be done and released by the summer which is all very exciting and we can’t wait to see what he brings us next!

 


I know you want more! So don't hesitate! So show some love on his Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages. You never know he just might respond with a "Thank you." Oh, and don't forget to catch my vibe!

So check him out at the following social media links below:
