about Blaqstarr / Baltimore, MD native. DJ, singer, musician, and producer. Blaqstarr catapulted into worldview for his work with Diplo and M.I.A., he started DJ’ing in his early teens. By the age of 16, he was deep into the Baltimore club scene where he produced his first club banger “Tote It”. Tote It immediately became the biggest song in Baltimore and the city began to demand more music from the 16 year old. Blaqstarr has since been internationally adored and recognized as the future of the new fusion sound based on Baltimore Club. Kanye West, Will I Am, and every major Dj around the world has sampled his music or collaborated with his sound. There is no way for words to express what his music feels like, but one publication came close…
Rolling stone “ Blaqstarr’s gauzily processed production shrouds falsetto come ons and playalistic mumblings in a skeevy haze, perfect for torpid, booming tracks that deploy anything from layered girl-chirps to distorted guitars to a pilfered Cameo beat in service of massaging his psychedelic freak.”
about TT The Artist / From sketchbooks to rhymes, emerging female recording artist Tt The Artist prepares to “paint the world with visual language” Through art and catchy tunes. TT is a colorful new take on feminine power and expression. Everything she touches is art.
about mighty mark / As a proud Cherry Hill-native and inventive club music producer and DJ, Mighty Mark bridges the gap between the intensity of old school Baltimore club music and the futuristic style of the new school. When he’s not producing his own tracks, DJ’ing in Baltimore’s most popular underground clubs, or shooting energetic music videos, he’s also successfully running his own music label, Zoo On Mars Entertainment.
