THE BUZZ
The David Banner produced, "Gettin' Cash," is a virtual middle finger to all the haters combining the earth-trembling drums of platinum producer, David Banner, with the poignant lyrics of ROCKST*R. The release of "Gettin' Cash" marks the first collaboration between ROCKST*R and R&B artist, Sean West (www.myspace.com/seansestonline). "Gettin' Cash" is also the first online release from Dirty Drum Productions and will be available for FREE download at a variety of online websites as well as the Official ROCKST*R MySpace page (www.myspace.com/rockstaronline).
ABOUT ROCKST*R
Over the last 3 years, ROCKST*R has become a staple on the underground hip hop scene. A direct descendent of legendary author Alex Haley (author of New York Times best-selling novel ROOTS), ROCKST*R is also an accomplished musician and businessman with a resume that reads more like that of a budding corporate executive than an aspiring music superstar.
ROCKST*R attended the famous Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA and eventually received a degree in Marketing and International Business from the University of Arkansas. With extensive travels living and working in vibrant cities such as Toulouse, France, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, CA., ROCKST*R counts his unique experiences as a basis for his innovative sound.
"I make music for the common man, states ROCKSTAR, 'I try to appeal to all races, ages, backgrounds. It's only a matter of time before the world takes notice!"
ROCKST*R's music has received airplay on traditional, internet, and college radio stations in Dallas, TX. Houston, TX, Memphis, TN., New York City, NY., and Charlotte, NC., as well as his hometown Little Rock station, Hot 96.5 FM, where ROCKST*R's song "She's In Love" ft. Heavyweight (R.I.P.) and Z-Bra was retired on the popular "Hottest in the Rock" local artist competition. ROCKST*R has also been featured numerous times in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Arkansas Times, LocalistMagazine.com, as well as other local and national news periodicals.
ROCKST*R is currently performing at various venues throughout the South region in support of his latest release, The Instant Classic (The Prequel) Mixtape which features fan favorites such as "That's My Nature", and the self-produced debut single "Radio," with a video which can be viewed on YouTube.com and ROCKST*R's official MySpace page.
