AFFLUENT IN-STUDIO SERIES w/KATLYN SWANSON
November 4, 2009 New York, NY - Oscar Sanchez CEO of NYC1 Urban Digital Record Label Affluent Records, is proud to announce the signing of Affluent Records 1st NYC Female Pop Artist KATLYN SWANSON to the label.
“Katlyn Swanson is one of the most amazing young talents that I have had the pleasure of working with in this industry. She is an incredible artist, singer, songwriter, and producer. Her music is so refreshing and has so much energy. Signing her to the label and producing each and every track on her album in the studio with her has made me fall in love with music all over again. I can’t wait to release her single on Valentine’s Day February 2010 and her album on MARCH 9, 2010 so you can have the chance to fall in love with her music very soon” says Oscar Sanchez.
Katlyn was born in Chicago, Illinois on November 17, 1989. Her first inspiration with music came from performing with her family at the early age of 5 years old. Since then she continued to follow her calling and after much practice and play in her hometown she kept to her focus. She continued to pursue her career even further by coming to New York and attending NYU at The Clive Davis School of Music. Here, she was able to not only nurture her talents and perfect her craft singing and producing but she also learned the business aspect of the music industry and learned the importance of networking.
Her diligence paid off after meeting Affluent Records recording artist Kenny Ali at a local New York City music school seminar. She quickly networked got a hold of the right contact and actively emailed the label’s CEO Oscar Sanchez right after. “I constantly check my emails everyday”, says Sanchez. “After hearing her music from the first time in my email box, it became real catchy for a demo, and it had great melodies. After I spoke with her it was easy to see her music reflected so much of her personality. She is a great writer and overall has a great voice, much in the likes of her influences Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, and Mariah Carey. I signed her immediately. We went to work asap, I was in the studio for 3 months producing each and every track on the album to make sure this album is the best r&b pop album of 2010.”
KATLYN SWANSON new single “DIZZY” will be debut February 14, 2010 on ITUNES through AFFLUENT RECORDS / IRIS Distribution and on all major online sites worldwide. Check for her album also titled “DIZZY” executive produced by Oscar Sanchez to be released on MARCH 9, 2010 worldwide .

60 Seconds with SodaBoy (The Interview)
So what's your name and where are u from?
My name is Ramon Downs I'm from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Grew up in the North Side where it was predominately looked at as a gang infested neighborhood during the 80s and 90s. It was so bad that it spun off a second alias known as BABY CALI.
Wow so with so much drama going on in the hood what made u or better yet what inspired you to make music?
What inspired me was basically Old School Golden Age Hip Hop that was growing stronger and stronger artists such as LL Cool J single I'm Bad was the first single that drove me to rap. I was always the family center of entertainment singing, dancing, and performing but hearing those hip-hop songs come out of the older kids radio (boom boxes) that's what got me hooked.
So do u feel like it was always in your blood to be a rapper?
Most definitely I always had that feeling that I was born with a blessing to be in entertainment. To be an entertainer, only thing I didn�t know was how to get there properly from Minnesota so I moved down to ATL to get things popping thru the industry channels out there.
When did you start recording music? Basically when I got out, growing up in the NorthSide I got caught up with the streets ended up in the Minnesota State Penn for 10 years. Got out shopped a demo out everywhere and somehow got a hold of a NYC indie label named AFFLUENT RECORDS. I hook up with the CEO Oscar Sanchez and talk for hours basically about the music the lifestyle in the Midwest and lifestyle in the east. My whole purpose was to bring the Midwest lifestyle to the map not only the music.
I wanted to bring out the Chicago The Detroits The Milwaukees, Gary Indiana, St.Paul Minneapolis the true great cities of the midwest the whole life behind the music. He was very open and understood my vision from the start musically productions wise a&r and the branding the retail and the marketing. Affluent was the only street label in NYC that works like a major Oscar is able to fully make it happen. He grew up learning and working making records at Def Jam so having that behind me was the real factor that I needed to get across big. So not soon after I signed did he put me to work with some of his in house producers like Tai Rotan, Fast Traxx, Affluent, Joe Dinero, G5, Hot Lips, Acclaim, Harlem Tone, Capers, Masa, Alexander Da great at the engineering & mastering boards, and we all got to cranking out hits like 10 Toes Down, "SUPABAD", I'M THE MAN, and HARDTIMES.
How does it feel that so many people support what u do in both Minnesota and Atlanta?
I mean its all all love Im here for them so we all can continue to have a voice. We basically just cranking out hit music that talks about our lives where we come from so all the support and fans growing more and more whether the guy in the barbershop or the myspace or the kidz on the block its all a blessing.
Are you proud knowing that your accomplishments are giving people that are in the same situation you are in, hope for a better future?
Absolutely it's a hard getting anywhere these days trying to better yourself without any drama along the way, but through music that channel was the one door that allowed me to not only get heard but open peoples minds to the Midwest lifestyle the culture that we live in. Its just as powerful as the west coast or the east or the south that we have all grown to know.
So tell me more about your album when does it come out?
Its chunky and Big, We are working on it right now we about 7 songs deep, You are about to hear great sounds from some unknowns who are about to be household names. Every song is gonna bang out a message and a movement of the Midwest west life how it is right now! We are also getting that extra something something from certain celeb producers who are about to come on aboard. So its really an exciting time right now. We are about to hit the web the streets the stores and just blast off. All the family love of the Mid West is behind me and down South so we are looking to do great on the indie scene with the album. So everyone be on the look out for the album titled MIDWEST MAYOR coming soon on Affluent Records Also be on the look out and Pick up the exclusive singles at Itunes 10 toes Down and This Gonna Be A Hot Summer soon get at me at www.myspace.com/reelsodaboy

For Immediate Release: AFFLUENT RECORDS Dead Prez and Outlawz urge: [You] "Can't Sell Dope Forever." New York, NY Former Def Jam/Violator A&R / Producer Oscar Sanchez, has just recently launched a new Rap label imprint for NYC, Affluent Records. Modeled much in the same likes as Def Jam, Violator, BadBoy. This east coast independent imprint operates like a mini major. They will launch the label by releasing this summer�s highly anticipated street collaboration of political rap duo, Dead Prez and the west coast super group the Outlawz. The LP �Cant Sell Dope Forever Mixtape� talks to the streets to open up the minds, hearts, and souls of our youth out in the everyday struggle to keep striving towards Unity, Appreciation, and Motivation. 'Can't Sell Dope Forever' features the same unique flow from M-1 and Stic.man that fans of Dead Prez have grown to know and love from "Turn Off The Radio: The Mixtape Vol 1 & 2" and the studio album that followed, "RBG: Revolutionary But Gangsta�. Outlawz aficionados will relish the thought provoking rhymes of Edi Don, Young Noble and Kastro in the vain of "Against All Oddz" and "Novakane". The new record boasts a roster of guests including Layzie Bone and Messy Marv, in addition to new talents like Stromey and Malachi. The set even includes a cameo from stic.man's mother, Nora, on the track "Believe," considered to be one of the album's hottest. The title of the album comes from their belief that young people have to find ways to empower themselves beyond a life on the streets. What started as a clothing line ("Be Your Own Boss") evolved into a philosophy, a movement and an album " "Can't Sell Dope Forever". Oscar Sanchez, CEO of Affluent Records in New York City says, "I love their movement and respect their business. I've always been a fan, now I get the chance to show the world with them their overall vision.
