BWS is ready for the Global Takeover
By Mr. A. Onyeani

There's more to Jersey than the show "Jersey Shore". Thinking this state is full of spiky hair and beach towns is a mistake. There's a lot more happening here. A BWS capo is plotting his move. NJ Devil gave thebutms.com an exclusive interview about Game, BWS(BLACKWALLSTREET), and more. The Game has proved that he can survive without G-Unit and NJDevil is the Dj behind the scenes making things happen. Focused on the matters at hand..BWS..has moved on from silly beefs and are looking to show the world that from the ashes of Oklahoma..Black Wall Street will be powerful again.
TBUT: What's good man?

NJDevil: I'm real good homie I can't complain.

TBUT: How did you and Game meet?

NJDevil: Me and Game met thru a mutual friend by the name of Phat Rat. At the
time I was signed yo Darkchild Entertainment (Rodney Jerkins Label) as
a producer and Game hadn't blown up yet. I use to bring Game to the
studio to work on music and from there we just clicked. We been
working together ever since. After my contract was up with Darkchild I
felt my style was better fitting for Game and moved to Compton where
we started the Black Wall Street movement. Then we started dropping
mixtapes and here we are... The MuthaPhuckin BWS!!!

TBUT: How's bws treating you?

NJDevil:  Everything is good for me at BWS. That's my fam more than anything.
 Alot of people forget I've been down with BWS since day one when we
were just some dudes in the hood tryning to make a name for
 ourselves so no matter what it's always BWS!

TBUT: With the current state of hip hop how is bws using the internet?

NJDevil: Hip Hop is at a critical stage right now. People are thirsty for
something new so when someone comes out with anything that's different
whether good or bad people tend to bite into it and that's where all
this wack music comes into play and gets so much airplay. As far as
the Internet goes BWS is definitely taking part in that. We have www.TheRealBWS.com
and www.Thisizgame.com which are doing fairly well for us as far as
getting our music promoted correctly. Without the net we would have a
much harder time trying to get our recognition so BWS is all for the
internet.
 
TBUT: You're from jerz..that's great. Why is jersey always the 6th borough
  to ny?

NJDevil: I think because we are so close to it. But that's mainly North Jersey.
When people hear New Jersey they automatically think New York cause
the name is similar and we're both east coast states. New Jersey is a
big state and is widely spread out. I'm from Atlantic City which is 2
hours away from New York and 1 hour from Philly so we kinda get lost
between them but soon people will start respecting NJ as it's own
state once we turn it all the way up and start sticking together. We
need more unity. North Jersey an South Jersey rarely collab on
anything so hopefully I will bridge that gap and put my state fully on!
 
TBUT: The Game..a lot happening there..what's on deck for 2010?

NJDevil: Game is in the lab working on the best album of his career. Every
album he gets better and better. The Red album will make a strong
impact on 2010 and BWS will follow up with more music to make an even
stronger impact. We got a lot of tours coming up and will be showing a
lot more of BWS and Game so the fans can see how we really get down.

TBUT: The Gunit factor..does it mean anything to you guys?

NJDevil: Nah that's a thing of the past. They had there run now it's our turn.
Our fans always been there for us and been holding us down since day
one so we will continue to put on for them. G-Unit is G-Unit and BWS
is BWS. I'm done putting negative energy into that. I'm focused on BWS
& LIVELIHOOD and all my time and energy is going into those two
companies.

TBUT: When you're doing a mixtape ..what do you do first?

NJDevil: First I listen to what music I got and see what's needed. I treat my
mixtapes like albums and that's what seperates me from other mixtape
djs. I believe in quality over quantity. Anyone can put a bunch of
songs together and drop a tape but only real djs can make a classic
mixtape which I've continued to do over there past years along with DJ
Haze and a few others.

TBUT: How has the mixtape game changed?

NJDevil: The Internet changed it drastically! Before you had to go out and get
exclusives from artist personally, go get CDs pressed up and do Distro
yourself! Now u can just get songs from different hip hop sites mix
them up and send links out with a jpeg and that's that. Less grind,
less love and less respect for mixtapes.
  You're the official BWS DJ, what does that mean?
  I'm the "BWS KAPO" which means I over see all and any music that
  goes out and make sure everything is running smooth for BWS. I do it
all.

 TBUT: Any shout outs?

Shout out to the whole BWS, all our promoters and fans who hold us
down all around the globe cause without them we would be at a stand
still!

THEBUTMS.COM Exclusive Interview: Lola Monroe talks about hiphop, Africa, and what she wants in a man

Lola Monroe is ready to take center stage
By ziti
Ceo-Theblackurbantimes.com

Lola Monroe is a piece of eye candy that cannot be denied. The eyes, curves, and lips all speak to the type of woman that you want make your wifey and put a ring on it in the same day. She has more to offer though. Some of you have seen her on the biggest hip hop artists videos like: Kanye, 50 Cent, and more. She's not here to talk about that today though. She's here because of her desire to change the game of hip hop. She has a hunger and all of you other female emcees better take note of this bad sister right here. Beauty is the honey that brings you into her lyrics, but once her lips touch the mic..victory is for Ms. Monroe.

THEBUTMS: Who is biggest influence in hip hop? Who’s in your ipod?
Lola Monroe: Jay Z is my biggest influence in hip hop and that is based on how far he took one aspect of the industry he was in and made himself powerful and influential to hip hop all in all.
You can find various artists in my ipod but to narrow it down to a few you can find 2 Pac, Jay Z, T.I, Young Jeezy, 50, Lil Wayne,Common, Biggie, Kanye West, Fabolous, Jada Kiss, Nas etc…

THEBUTMS: I understand that you are African. How did that affect you growing up?

Lola Monroe: Being African did not affect me too much growing up because I have always been Americanized from the way I spoke to the way I acted so I didn’t stand out as much. I just always hated the negative perception people had of Africa especially Ethiopia. The first thing that would come to their minds is how poor it was or how they thought it was a jungle with women walking around half naked. In my opinion Africa is one of the most beautiful places in the world. Ethiopia is a country with a city part to it and the city has beautiful expensive areas as well as poor areas just the same in America you have the hoods and you also have the upper class areas. There isn’t but so much of a difference they just have more of a traditional culture that they follow strongly.

THEBUTMS: I am Nigerian, I know that life is a bit different over there. When was the last time you traveled back home?
Lola Monroe: Life is very different over there. Ethiopians are very traditional and follow the cult er very strongly. I was born there but came to the states when I was like 3 weeks old. I plan on going back there to visit with my mom maybe in a year or so.

THEBUTMS: Are you a fan of the Nollywood movies? What are your plans for acting?
Lola Monroe: Yes, I am a fan of Nollywood Movies. I star in a Nollywood movie called ‘Crazy like A Fox’ its sold at Blockbuster, Walmart, Amazon and all other major outlets. Im defiantly going to continue to purse the acting aspect of my career and take on roles that best fits me and the direction Im taking my career in.

THEBUTMS:There are lots of rumors about who you are dating and things like that…care to share anything with our readers?

Lola Monroe: When your in the limelight or considered a celebrity having rumors out about who you are dating or what you are doing comes with the territory. There have been so many rumors of me being involved with a few people in the industry that have been 100 percent false. I have only been involved on a personal level beyond friendship with one person in the industry.

THEBUTMS: What are your goals for hip hop?

Lola Monroe: One of my goals for hip hop is to be the representation and voice for the females out here that go through or have went through the struggle and grind and motivate them. My goal is to use rap as an art to express myself because that’s what Hip Hop is, its an expression of whats’s real out here whether it’s the struggle, the fly things or life all in all.

THEBUTMS: What type of guys do you like?
Lola Monroe:I like guys that are about their business, on top of their game and have high goals in life and wont settle for anything less. I like for men to have style, swag, and can enlighten me and keep me interested.

THEBUTMS:Who made you want to get into rapping?
Lola Monroe: My manger was an influence on me getting into rapping. After being around me 24/7 for a while she felt like this is what was meant for me to do hands down without a doubt. She was a motivation for me.

THEBUTMS: When is your next movie coming out?
Lola Monroe: My next movie “Before I Self Destruct” I'm featured in with 50 Cent and Clifton Powell is to be released this year.

Giant Mag Exclusive: Charlie Wilson Talks About New Music and says" I worked with T-Pain before he got hot!"

Please don’t ask R&B legend Charlie Wilson about working with T-Pain UNLESS you’ve done your research.

“Every time I sit down with a writer, they always want to talk about working with T-Pain. T-Pain wrote for me before he got hot,” jokes Charlie Wilson when asked about the latest collaborations on Uncle Charlie. “In between that first album of his and this new one, he blew up. So now people always ask me what am I doing with T- Pain. I’ve worked T-Pain before and no one even asked about it.”

“Matter of fact, when I went to work with T-Pain he had a black board full of names,” recalls Wilson . “When I asked him what was that list for. He said those are the people waiting in line for a song. But I wouldn’t have to wait, because I showed him love early on. You feel me?”

We feel you.

Uncle Charlie, the second solo set by Wilson on Jive Records, is the follow up to 2005’s Gold certified Charlie, Last Name Wilson , where R. Kelly repaid Wilson for years of inspiration by taking on the role of executive producer.

Exclusive Video Interview: Mayor Wayne Smith of Irvington, NJ Part 2 of 4

Exclusive Video Interview!! Mayor Wayne Smith of Irvington,NJ addresses his critics from the state of NJ Part 1

Biographical Sketch of Wayne Smith, Mayor
Township of Irvington, New Jersey
Promoting an aggressive agenda for the rebirth of the Township of Irvington, Wayne Smith was elected as the 20 th Mayor of the municipality in May 2002. His entire slate of council candidates—known as Team Irvington—was also elected, sealing the mandate for his leadership.

Mayor Smith’s tenure has been characterized by bold, innovative leadership that has yielded significant progress for the Township of Irvington. His most noted accomplishments are: initiating the formation of the Anti-Crime Partnership that includes the NJ State Police, local, county and federal agencies; securing the $4.4 million agreement to rebuild the Irvington Bus Terminal, which opened in April 2005; demolishing dozens of dilapidated, abandoned properties to pave the way for redevelopment; and drastically increasing code enforcement that has resulted in about $1.5 million in fines of neglectful property owners. His outstanding stewardship has not only delivered tangible results but high hopes for the future revitalization of Irvington.

In a nod to his undeniable popularity and the affirmation of the advancement of the Township of Irvington, Mayor Smith ran unopposed for a second term in May 2006 and assumed office in July 2006. He is the first chief executive of Irvington to accomplish the feat since Mayor Robert H. Miller in 1978. In November 2006, Mayor Smith was installed as the president and chairman of the 24-member NJ Urban Mayors' Association.

Amaka Entertainment is about to become a force in the industry..check out our exclusive interview with the CEO of Amaka Entertainment- Miss Amaka

Miss Amaka- Ceo of Amaka Entertainment

TBUT: How did you come up with the concept to your company, Amaka Entertainment, Inc.?
The concept of Amaka Entertainment matured over time. The only thing I was sure about when I first started it was that I wanted to own a company that would be beneficial and complementary to the industry. I wanted a company that would serve the greater good of the community and the industry. It was about more than just making money, and potential recognition. It was about achieving a goal and creating a standard and surpassing expectations of greatness. If that makessense…lol

TBUT: What does Amaka mean?
Amaka is an Ibo word that means beautiful. It comes from Nigeria, which happens to be where I am from. Well actually I was born in the States, but my parents were born in Nigeria. I have visited the country a few times and love the experience when I’m there.



TBUT:Going to school and running Amaka Entertainment must be tiresome...how do you get it all done?
To be honest it’s a real energy zapper. I find myself burning myself out all the time. One of the reasons that I burn myself out is that I am studying four programs in school, major with a triple minor, in school and that is exhausting mentally. My major is Political Science while my minors are: Dance, Journalism, and Pre-Law.


Miss Amaka with R&B singer, Bobby Valentino

I’ve learned over the course of time that you have to establish what is important and what will truly benefit you in the long run. Since I’ve been in school I’ve been involved with different activities on the campus, working, and running my company. After a while, I realized that it was time for me to figure out what I wanted to accomplish with my life and what would truly make me happy as a person and everything centered on my business and the industry. So in order to achieve these goals I’ve made sure to integrate a strict time management schedule and an effective team. Without a great team that is
committed towards a common goal it is hard to achieve anything. With my team and a solid direction I found the ability to complete tasks much easier and less stressful, but I still haven’t figured out a way to not burn myself out yet…I’m working on it though.



Miss Amaka with Darrin Henson

TBUT: When you met the different entertainers...how did you get them to commit to your events?
Presentation is everything, but money is the end all be all…lol….Truly I’ve found that when you are humble and genuine about your purpose and goal people will be willing to help you. For many of the celebrities that I’ve met, I found many of them to be very nice people. For some they are curious about what I am doing and what I am seeking to accomplish. I appreciate the fact that they have taken the time to come and judge events that my company has done or worked with. The most important point of everything is delivering what you promise, which means sticking to what you are about.
Miss Amaka with Method Man


TBUT: How does it feel to be running an entertainment company that is in the know of what's hot?
It feels natural. Meaning I’m where I’m supposed to be. Some people are not fortunate to do what they love and that can be depressing. In addition, I like the fact that I will one day be one of the people who contribute to what’s hot.

TBUT: What are some of the goals for your company?
This question is kind of hard because we have so many. One of the main goals of the company for 09 is to put forward events that were better than the year before. We have some expectations that we are working to meet and surpass.

TBUT: Where do you see, Amaka Entertainment, one year from now?
A year from now I see Amaka Entertainment on another level. Where that level is I’m not truly sure. I just know that a year from now we will be bigger, better, and more prosperous than we are now. We believe it to be inevitable because we are reaching for the galaxy and know we are going to touch the stars.

TBUT: Who are the main people behind your company?
The people behind Amaka Entertainment are Miss Amaka, her business manager Paula
Williams, and her team members who put in a lot of work to make sure that everything moves smoothly and stays on track.

TBUT: Does the internet play a role in what you're doing? If so how are you going to use it?
The internet plays a very big role in what we do. We use it to promote, advertise, and communicate with the world.

TBUT: A brand is so important, what is the ultimate goal for Amaka Entertainment as a brand?
The ultimate goal for Amaka Entertainment as a brand is to deliver great service and phenomenal events to our audience. As a brand we want to be the next step closer for committed talent.
