WHAT A CLOSE COMPETITION! Just 32 votes separated Tim Korry in our January contest. Wow ...

Great tracks and writing from Tim! Well done.

Aussie R&B sensation, Jeniqua, has made her way to the United States! Her style is original and her voice is a raw earthy mixture of Jennifer Hudson, Beyonce and Tina Turner.

I'm looking forward to chatting with Joey Ruiz also known as "JBR." JBR served in the United States Army for about 7 years and he describes his time as an experience he'll never forget. When JBR puts on his uniform he's filled with Honor to serve his country. JBR was deployed to Afghanistan beginning 2008 through 2009 with the famous Fighting 69th Infantry. Joey served with many great soldiers.

Visit Rising Star Artists to sample his music and be inspired.
