Potential In You

In this article, it will feature the likes of Anjelo Disions, Emmanuel Speaks, Francine, Flyboy Kenkz, Nicki Knightz and Rae Poet all talented individuals I'm sure you have no idea about, right? Let me break that barrier! Hey everyone, this is just the beginning of my weekly article called "Potential In You", and it brings together a collective of artists to share with the world. Music is all about unity and togetherness, so the fact you may not know any of these artists is startling.

Let's begin shall we?

As some of you may know already I go by the name of Tevin Vassell aka. Mr Emotionz I'm a Spoken Word Artist, Manager and I do A&R, but already there's a loophole in that description. No matter what you do, it's all about recognition, right? Being seen, wanting to get yourself to the top? But, unfortunately and because of certain circumstances life gets in the way. Hear me out though, "Whatever your highest expectations is, surpass it! Have no limitations. More obstacles always come when we pass the first one."

Let's go!

Anjelo Disions 

A 16 Year Old Singer/Songwriter, Anjelo's love for music surpasses many his age allowing his talent to do so as well. Performing in venues such as Proud Camden, The Roundhouse, Surya, The Cargo and many more... Anjelo's performances are always an experience to the crowds that attend backed by the blend of his unique vocals and fantastic live band. His biggest influence is soul music with artists like Marvin Gaye, Will Heard, Labrinth, Jordan Rakei and Amy Winhouse being the most prominent.

Anjelo's Debut EP (The Awakening) was released on the 24th of July and had a launch party the day after managing to pack out the venue and gaining attention from a wide accolade of industry ears.

(started by Henny Knightz) Still trying to find herself, Nicki found this to be a stepping stone in her career and perfect timing as well being that was the same time she was becoming the songwriter she is today.

It was summer last year where things started to take off for the team in terms of performing and being recognised. She had done roughly around twenty shows this year that which includes open mics and booked performances. One of which being a massive platform in Hackney, a talent competition called: Alter Ego hosted by Kat B (MTV Base) at the Hackney Empire. With industry professionals as judges & headline acts such as Sneakbo, Timbo, Mandem On The Wall and Jermaine Jackson. Which helped develop Her performance abilities but when she's not performing or recording, she's a creative writing student at St Marys University in Twickenham.

Inspirations: Biggie, Tupac, Missy Elliot, Floetry.

The artists that she tended to listen to a lot when she was younger was; N Dubz, Mz Bratt, Amplify Dot, Paigey Cakey, Teezy, Tigger The Author, Ms Dynamite. These are the artists that actually made her realise that there was a scene in the UK. Keep up to date with Nicki Knightz here via;
