RAH DIGGA HOOKS UP WITH REDMAN FOR THE RMX
The hip-hop world is abuzz with the promise of a follow-up from one of rap’s most prominent and skilled female emcees, Rah Digga. Following on the heels of her inclusion in BET’s recent documentary My Mic Sounds Nice, Digga delivers a taste of what’s to come with the remix of “This Ain’t No Lil Kid Rap,” the lead single from Classic.
OVAL NEW VIDEO FOR “AH!”
The video shows a group of contemporary dancers whose refined motions and postures are coated in a layer of dust, which provides a visceral visual counterpoint and element of vulnerability to the bristling delicacies of the music.
THE DRUMS “DOWN BY THE WATER” VIDEO
Stacked against the summer’s dance-inducing releases, “Down By The Water” is a breath of fresh air.

With a great line-up that included: Korn, Rob Zombie, Lamb of God, Five Finger Death Punch, Atreyu, Norma Jean, In This Moment, 3 Inches of Blood, Hatebreed, Chimaira, Shadows Fall and Winds of Plague, we were off to the races!

CARRIE ROWAN ENCOURAGES STOLI TO LEAVE THE 9-5 AND FOLLOW YOUR PASSION
What a great weekend, it sure makes this Monday morning all the more rougher. My next guest could not have come on a more perfect day. Carrie Rowan always had a love & passion for music but she also knew that she had to have a corporate job to pay the bills. That all changed one day when she decided it was time to take a jump & follow the music. Carrie dropped the 9-5 and went 100% with her music. One listen to her album, ‘Almost Home’ and it makes sense why she did it. Let Carrie Rowan’s personal songwriting & sweet voice help ease you into your week!
GLEN NAYLOR SAYS TO STOLI “WHO YOU CALLING GRANDMA!?”
Another weekend is here again! My guest this week shows that music is the universal language and that you are never too old to create music. We are traveling across the globe to introduce Glen Naylor from Victoria, Australia. Glen makes childrens music that is upbeat, positive, and very catchy. I must admit that my son’s new favorite song is “The Bonza Bobby Dazzler Bush Band” and Glen has been gracious to offer this song as a FREE MP3 for all readers. Join us as Glen Naylor talks about Australia, raising her wonderful grandkids, working with Chris Wilson, and so much more!
KEITH MOODY’S MUSIC GETS STOLI UP!
I have been covering musicians for many years now and it never gets old thanks to talented & exciting musicians like Keith Moody. I will admit it took alot to get going on this rainy Monday morning. Then I put on Keith’s new single, “Up” and I am awake and ready to face the day. I have heard many hit songs and it is safe to say that “Up!” is a feel-good bonfaide hit! This is only one hit off Keith’s new four song EP, ‘Lines.’ Join us as Keith opens up about moving to TN, Top 40, high unemployment, and so much more!
