SKG ATTEND THE POWER OF LOVE GALA

Los Angeles, CA – Hip Hop Artist SKG, also known as Helecia Choyce, made a memorable appearance at the Power of Love Gala Hosted by Larry Wilmore and Honoring Legendary Sports Agent and WME Head of Basketball Bill Duffy and Basketball Great Spencer Haywood.

Having graced the music industry from a young age, Rapper SKG hails from Los Angeles, California.

Her track “Let em Have it” on Tupac Shakur’s “Until The End of Time” went to #4 on the charts, earning her a Platinum Plaque. In 2004, she left Death Row Records and now she prides herself as a independent artist working both in front of and behind the scenes.

However, it was her attendance at the Power of Love Gala that truly opened her eyes to the importance of The Ryan Gordy Foundation and why bringing awareness to causes like this is important.

Reflecting on her experience, SKG stated, “This was my first time attending this type of event, and I’m happy that I got a chance to meet some really great people and hear beautiful stories about the organization”.

The Ryan Gordy Foundation hosted its 2023 The Power of Love Gala at the Beverly Hills Hotel on September 28th, 2023.

El Vrother turns negativity into strength on new single “My Biggest Fan”

El Vrother

“My Biggest Fan” is a powerful, insightful, and surprisingly uplifting song. It’s a Latin-infused hip-hop anthem that puts a new spin on turning negativity into strength. El Vrother’s latest track is about redemption, growth, and being real.

This was inspired by a real-life event in which a listener admitted to posting hateful comments about El Vrother’s work for years before becoming a steadfast supporter. The ironic and human change gave the song its creative spark, and El Vrother didn’t get back at anyone or ignore the problem. Instead, he turned it into art, which shows that even anger can change when faced with honesty and sincerity.

The song has a unique sound that is both authentic and powerful, blending sharp Latin rhythms with a hip-hop foundation. His story shows how music that comes from real struggles, real life, and real feelings can have a significant effect. It is an artistic position that runs counter to the negative trends common in modern music charts. “My Biggest Fan” is a statement that authentic storytelling will always be important.

El Vrother uses the song to show that music can change people’s minds, break down walls, and start real change. He thinks of the song as proof that music can change how people feel. This is a response to the widespread culture of hate online. El Vrother improves the conversation in “My Biggest Fan” and gives us a piece with purpose, a beat, and an effect.
