Joshua Lee Minnick(aka Joshie Sullivan) Debuts On International-Hip-Hop.com and the Global Attack Mixtape!

Posted by: Shawn Petrie

Joshua Lee Minnick (AKA, Joshie Sullivan) was born on December 27,1995 in Roanoke VA and grew up in Basset VA.

JOSHIE SULLIVAN

As a boy he always loved singing and performing in front of his family. He frequently sung for his grandmother, father, mother & aunt (Joann, Butch, Mamie, & Pattie) and they always knew he had  talent.

The first time he sang in front of a crowd was in the 7th grade, it was in front of the school. Everyone thought he was great, and he loved it. During this time in his life he was going through alot so he started writing his own songs as a way to vent his emotional frustration and anger. His mom, Melissa Minnick, had breast cancer, and his cousin had passed away, this was very difficuly for him and it was a tough time to go through.

Joshua perservered and just kept writing and singing, that was his biggest escape. He started hanging out with an old friend to keep his mind off things and he found out the hard way they were not good freinds for him. When he realized it, it was too late and he had gotten screwed over, it was devistating. He fell in love with someone and then all of a sudden they hated him. He was real depressed after that happened, he could not do anything except continue to write songs.

JOSHIE

Heartbreak, he learned that while a fact of life, can also inspire many songs. He wrote all the time just to get all of his emotion out. One night he was out with his mom, she was telling him a story about how she found out her friend Kims mom had passed away so they went to see her. Kims daughter, Courtney and Joshua became best friends, they just clicked like she was his sister.

Joshua was happy again because he had people around him to hang out with. They gave him his nickname “Joshie Sullivan” which he started using as his name all the time. That made life easier for him.

Now he’s just trying to make it and become a singer, which has always been his dream. he wants people to know him, and accept him for who he is. Joshie Sullivan, singer, songwriter, and hopefully the next big thing.

“Everybodys different.. why judge.. everybody’s awesome and perfect the way they are! Always and forever is always nice. Love everybody and see whats right.” – Joshua Lee Minnick

“Pretty please, I know its a drag, Wipe ur eyes and put up ur head, Wish u could b happy instead, Theres nothin else i can do but love u …” – Joshua Lee Minnick

Lazee – 4 Time Grammy Nominated Swedish Artist

Posted by: Scott
Lazee

Lazee

4 Grammy Nominated Artist Lazee from Sweden is about to take the World by Storm. Lazee is unique as an artist, with an international class attitude & widely sound that makes Lazee different from most urban international artists.

Mawuli Kulego, aka Lazee. He was born in 1985 in Scandinavia’s southernmost providence, Malmo/Sweden.

In 1998, his mother decided that Malmö didn’t provide the right environment for her son. She sent Lazee to London where he could “become something”. Six years later, Lazee moved back to Sweden with the ambition of finishing his first hip-hop album.

His first mixtape, “It Is What It Is” was hosted by Dj KaySlay (NY) and was a huge success. This was also the start of a new collaboration with producer Ishi. Ishi & Lazee started working on a new sound; the fresh sound that they came up with is best described as a hybrid of hip-hop, house, grime & drum & bass – with a hint of R&B. It was this new sound that got SONY BMG’s (Scandinavia) attention with “Rock Away” which was the first single on his debut album “Setting Standards”.

Lazee had a quick start. “Rock Away” came in on the charts without being officially released. It came to the No. 2 spot on iTunes, “Smash Hit of the Week” on NRJ, Voice Choice on The Voice & Fresh on MTV, with over 120 spins a week. At this point it also became very evident that Lazee is not only a hip-hop artist – he’s an entertainer. He had the confidence, the attitude and above all, the talent, to take him all the way. His unique way of combining rock & hip-hop took this somewhat traditional music genre to a new, higher level.

Lazee Live

Lazee has had the privilege of being a supporting act for artists such as Lady Gaga, Snoop Dogg, Ne-Yo, Wyclef Jean, Rick Ross & Musiq Souldchild. His hit single “Calling Out” was no. 1 on iTunes Sweden for several weeks and made him an ambassador for a well reputed Swedish charity organization. “Calling Out” is now the signature song of the organization.

Lazee’s international hit single “Hold on” came in No. 14 on the top 100 at TV Air Play in the UK and is currently in high rotation. “Hold on” was also released in the USA in March, and the same success as in the UK is expected.

The world can look forward to the next album “Supposed to Happen” which is currently in the recording process.

He is currently working with Elevated Entertainment Solutions & Island Def Jam and will be featured on the worldwide release of The Global Attack Mixtape series in early 2011.
