Urban Soul Café presents the KingdomSwag.com MID-DAY MIXER featuring Gospel Music’s “Young Gunners”

Nashville, TN- The nation’s top mainstream promoters and influencers will mingle with gospel music’s finest artists and industry professionals at KindomSwag.com’s Mid-Day Mixer on Saturday, January 16th from 11AM to 2PM, during the Stellar Awards weekend. The event will be held at the ultra contemporary Pearl Fusion Restro, downtown Nashville on the corner of 2nd Ave and Commerce St. The mixer is hosted by Jonathan Slocumb, a gospel comedian, best known for his entertainment industry success in reoccurring roles on the Steve Harvey Show sitcom, and numerous guest appearances on major mainstream talk shows, movies including Meet the Browns (the funeral preacher), and Jamie Foxx’s Laffapalooza.

Taking the stage for this powerful event will be the incredible P-Dub aka Pretty Willie, GMA Dove Nominee J.R., Jai, God’s Image (GI), Holy Hip Hop Awards Winner Ricky B, Still Trill Christians, Onitsha, and 2009’s BET’s Sunday’s Best Winner Y’anna Crawley.

And to top off the show, KingdomSwag.com’s new clothing line LOVE MY HATERS Clothing will provide a mini-fashion show preview of their debut line.

KingdomSwag.com is the pulse of God’s heart translated through original Christian clothing, an online magazine, and other ventures that support the promotion of Jesus Christ to today’s urban youth and young adults. All day long we brag on the goodness and uniqueness of God. God’s way of doing things is the best!

Many say that the future of music and media is heading towards a more uplifting, and inspirational message. These rumors of transition are enormously advanced by the ground-breaking success of Christian filmmaker Tyler Perry, and 2009’s surprise Hollywood blockbuster, “Blindside.” KingdomSwag.com’s founder Ivan Rattliff believes that online media, clothing, and music are next. He states, “people are yearning for hope, something to bring them out of their situation, many of us need good news right about now, the gospel of Jesus Christ is as relevant as it’s ever been.” Rattliff continues, “We’re inviting those influential in other industries and genres a voyage into our world!”

The Pearl Fusion Restro is an ultra contemporary restaurant and lounge in downtown Nashville, TN. Its European leather couches, hardwood floors, and granite fixtures are only surmounted by its menu of Asian and American cuisine. It is located on the corner of 2nd Ave. and Commerce St. directly across from B.B. Kings at 204 Commerce St. Nashville, TN 37201

Dedicated Music Group, Inc. was created in 2008 by Delmar Lawrence (AKA “Mr. Del’) to provide opportunities to other artists who are ready to proclaim the Gospel in new and innovative ways through music. For years, Mr. Del, former member of the hardcore rap group Three 6 Mafia, has been an essential source of Hip Hop music. As the flagship artist, Mr. Del will continue to take his untraditional approach to the Gospel directly to the next generation.

DMG has set the bar in Christian Hip Hop with two phenomenal releases in 2009. Mr. Del’s Thrilla CD, released June 30, debuted at #2 on the Christian R&B/Hip Hop Chart, and has been dubbed his deepest and most musically diverse project to date. THRILLA is an acronym for THE REAL ANOINTING. On this album, Mr. Del allows people to see more of his personal life. “THRILLA shows more of a deeper, transparent side of me,” he agrees. THRILLA allows the listener to submerge into the heart of an artist who has overcome weakness and is now refined and stronger through Christ.

The national debut CD release of DMG artist Mali Music is being hailed as a landmark release in Christian music. The 2econd Coming, released July 14, landed at #15 Billboard Current Gospel Chart and presents infinite boundaries throughout Contemporary Christian music. Stretching the boundaries of Contemporary Christian, The 2econd Coming displays Mali’s extensive vocal and production versatility, and his God-given ability to reach any audience. His bold, unique sound and gift for musical storytelling has captivated audiences, drawing them in to a lyrical adventure and spiritual revival. The 2econd Coming includes the smash single and acoustic YouTube hit “Avaylable” and the bold and unrelenting “I Hate You”, a lyrically clever, in-your-face illustration of the lies and darkness of evil and the rebuke and triumph we have over it. “No Muzick”, is an expressive old Negro spiritual style song with a funky a cappella hand clapping flow.

“Mali Music, one of the most dynamic artists to come around in a longgggg time!”

BET.com Listen Up – The Gospel According to Torrence

“Mali Music is the truth! The boy has got skillzzzz! His style and spirit speaks to this i-pod generation, it’s simply the most refreshing project I’ve heard in ‘09.”

- Christopher Heron, BlackGospel.com

Forthcoming DMG 2010 projects will introduce the hot new Hip Hop group Movement of Truth and generate a collaboration project between Mr. Del and Hip Hop hit maker iRocc.
