Detroit's Rising Artist - The Spec-iLLest

The Spec-iLLest:
Who is The Spec-iLLest ? Robert Ingram III , better known as The Spec-iLLest is rapper, text writer, MC, producer and DJ. Practically universal in all of the above. The Spec-iLLest is a native of Michigan. He was born and raised in the eastern part of Detroit. The Spec-iLLest , or briefly Spec ( Spesh ) knows what a hard work is, because he was born and grew up in the industrial part of the city, this fact influenced him, as a result he became a specialist in his business. Spec spent countless hours at the studio, improving his sound to make a worthy musical career, and also held a show, promoted and made the necessary investments in his work. Spec is devoted to his favorite work and makes good music so that everyone can enjoy it to the fullest.
Spec is very comfortable on the stage, knows how to swing the crowd and make a great show, knows how to draw attention to himself on stage. Original coarse lyrics and at the same time a clever play of words - all this attracts the attention of the crowd and involves the show in the atmosphere, people listen to every word. When you hear the tracks of this person, you will understand everything yourself, indulge in the vibe. Its sounding is original enough, it's something like the echoes of the Golden Era in new rhythms.
Spec became a real workaholic in hip-hop, he presented his music to the attention of everyone who wanted to hear it. As a result of a long and hard work in 2013 Spec was nominated for the Detroit Music Award (DMA) and for 2 consecutive years (in 2013 and 2014) was nominated for the Detroit Black Music Award (DBMA) . Currently,  Spec works with Hit Squad participants  K-Solo and UniqMe .
The Spec-iLLest very, very fond of hip-hop, as well as everything connected with it.

For him it's not just rhymed words, but also culture and way of life. The work of  The Spec-iLLest was influenced by people like Nas, Jay-Z, Notorious Big, 2Pac, Common, Blackstar (Mos Def & Talib Kweli) , and J. Dilla .
Spec selfless and sincerely devoted to hip-hop, his message is simple, it is clear to everyone:
 
Hip-Hop will not die while I'm here!
 
Listen to the tracks of The Spec-iLLest you can on reverbnation.com , as well as on bandcamp.com

In 2014, UniqMe and The Spec-iLLest teamed up as a duo and formed The Foundation.


The Foundation represents how hip-hop was, what it is now and how it can be. UniqMe and The Spec-iLlest, and individually they are quite good, but they combined to create something new, something special! UniqMe is an experienced MC who has contributed to the development of hip-hop and continues to do what was started once, Spec-iLLest calculates the path a few steps forward and is also a worthy performer.
The Foundation is a perfect blend of North Midwest and East Coast styles , original and soulful lyricism. The guys created this project in tribute to the classical hip-hop and the sound that helped to form this culture, and also combined in itself many musical genres.
UniqMe and The Spec-iLlest created their own chemistry in music, which simply works. Their styles perfectly complement each other, worthy lyrics and an interesting presentation of the material.
The Foundation treats hip-hop with respect, the guys really love and appreciate this culture. They try to record material in the best traditions, introducing something new. And this in recent times, alas, not often hear!
Last month, The Foundation presented a track called Champions Motivation (Rocky)" . Production from Salvation . A remix and arrangement from Bic Beats:

Very soon UniqMe and Spec-Illest will release their first album as The Foundation called "ALT2BS" (Alternative 2 Bullshit)

Jazz vocalist Joan Belgrave on Lets Talk About It with T. Pablo



Listen here Joan Belgrave as she’s interviewed on Let’s Talk About It with T. Pablo on DetroitHottRadio.com. 
JOAN BELGRAVE is Detroit’s most noted Jazz singer. Known for her soothing voice, Joan has performed at historic venues like Baker’s Keyboard Lounge, The Jazz Cafe at The Music Hall, The Dirty Dog Jazz Café, The Fillmore Theatre, Orchestra Hall, and The Detroit Opera House. Nationally, she has performed at famed Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola in New York and The Metropolitan Room. And her international travels have taken her to The Toronto Jazz Festival, Jazz à la Villette in Paris, and The Ascona Jazz Festival in Switzerland. But she is so much more. In addition to her trademark Jazz sound, Joan has also sung Blues, Gospel, Big Band, Standards, and Contemporary R&B. Jazz Review Magazine in Toronto calls her “a class act and a beautiful talent.” Joan has produced 7 albums – five with her late husband, legendary Jazz trumpeter, Marcus Belgrave. She has also recorded tributes to Billie Holliday, Ray Charles and Louis Armstrong. And she has worked with some of America’s leading Jazz singers and musicians like Regina Carter, Charlie Gabriel, Kirk Lightsey, Geri Allen, James Carter, Don Was, Carmen Lundy, and Ali Jackson. Known for clean notes, vibrant melodies and vocal versatility, Joan Belgrave is remarkable. 
Joan’s musical career began at age 3. She was so good so early that her parents would take her to neighborhood house parties and put her up on a soapbox to sing with adult singers. In 1st grade, Joan’s talent was spotted by Dr. Willis Patterson, Professor of Classical Music at The University of Michigan, who gave her private vocal training. From age 6 to 11, Joan sang in the Children’s Choir at her church and won several talent shows in middle school. In high school she sang with the choir. After graduating, Joan entered the prestigious Interlochen International Music Academy where she received elite classical vocal training. Restless to begin her singing career, Joan moved to Los Angeles and began singing at clubs to gain professional experience. After 4 years of singing, she got married, had 3 kids and didn’t sing again for 15 years while being totally devoted to raising her children.
In 1994, Joan returned to Detroit to attend the funeral of her father. Her mother asked her to sing at the services and the emotional experience rekindled her passion for singing. 
After her dad’s passing, Joan returned to California and resurrected her music career. Her busy performance schedule took a toll on her marriage, though, and she divorced in 1996. In 1998, Joan released her first CD entitled, “Emotions Blue”. It was a tribute to Billie Holliday. Then in 2003 she released “Variations”. During this period, Joan served as the manager of a recording studio in San Jose where she gained great production experience. With her kids now grown, Joan decided it was time to move back to Detroit and build her Jazz singing career there. A year later while performing at Open Mike Night at Bert’s Place,
she caught the attention of famed Jazz trumpeter, Marcus Belgrave. He was so mesmerized by her talent that he invited her to sing with his band for some upcoming gigs. One year later Joan became his permanent lead vocalist and the couple began dating.
In 2005, Joan traveled across the country and internationally with Marcus for 40 show dates on two separate tours – “The Louis Armstrong Tribute Show” and the “New Orleans Jazz Show”. Then in 2006, Marcus and Joan recorded their first CD together. It was a tribute to Ray Charles entitled, “You Don’t Know Me”. That same year, Joan became the manager and booking agent for the band in addition to her role as lead singer. In 2007, Marcus and Joan got married and continued touring. In 2009, they recorded two CDS - “Excitable” and “Once Again”. Joan also separately recorded a Techno-Jazz song
called “Where Am I” with producer Carl Craig who began Detroit’s Techno Festival. Learn more of Joan Belgrave here: http://joanbelgrave.com/

SAVE THE DATE ... Al Lindsey in Concert Dec. 16, 2017

Coming Soon! It's the Al Lindsey "Love You More" Pre-Holiday Concert.

There’s nothing like good ol’ R&B to set your mind, body and soul at ease after a hard day or week on the job trying to round up a few dead presidents to make ends meet. No, there’s nothing like that down home, understanding feel you get from soul music-especially the variety with a bit of southern flavor. And. lest you think that’s a taste you can’t get here up north, feast your ears on the latest from Saginaw, Michigan’s own superstar Al Lindsey.

Born in Gordonsville, Va., Lindsey moved to Michigan at an early age and has been a fixture on the music scene there since he was a 17-year-old gigging around Detroit. A stint as a medic in the military led him to pursue a career in the medical field, first as an EMT/paramedic with the Detroit Fire Department. After earning degrees at the University of Detroit Mercy and University of Nebraska, he took a job as a physician’s assistant at Aleda E. Lutz Veterans Hospital in Saginaw, where he currently now serves. Through it all, however, he’s never abandoned his music career nor his southern roots.

And coming this December 16th 2017, right here in Roseville, MI at the Allure Truth NiteClub, Al Lindsey will be performing from some of that Southern Soul Music from his newly release album "Love You More." This will be a concert you won't want to miss along with few special guest performances.
