But it's exciting for hip-hop [...] Everybody here, as an MC, is competitive. And I think, Yelawolf being in the family, the Shady family, it's gonna make him hear what these guys are doin' and wanna step his own shit up. When I hear these guys, I wanna step my shit up. And when they hear each other, I think it'll be a competitive atmosphere, like, makin' these records. And that's better for hip-hop.	”

STARS ON THE RISE:

FOSTER THE PEOPLE

Foster the People is an American indie pop band formed in Los Angeles, California in 2009. The group is composed of Mark Foster (vocals, keyboards, piano, synthesizers, guitar, programming, percussion), Cubbie Fink (bass and backing vocals), and Mark Pontius (drums and extra percussion) The group's music, described as melodic dance-infused pop and rock, spans many genres.

Mark Foster founded the band in 2009 when he was struggling to become a musician.

Mark Foster played at nightclubs and had several night jobs before founding the band. He met Mark Pontius also known as “Poncy”, he was part of a band called “Malbec” but he left it so he joined Foster as Poncy stated: this dude has talent, he has great lyrics and he composed music as well sometimes in guitar and sometimes in his computer so I decided to give it a shot. Jacob Fink known, as “Cubbie” was a long time friend of Foster he joined the band later.

Mark Foster was a jingle commercial writer so he had experience-writing songs, he wrote “Pumped Up Kicks” in 45 minutes but he didn’t knew that this song was the door to their wonderful career, the song became a crossover hit in the United States. At first the bands name was Foster and the People but people misheard it as Foster the People so at the end it stayed like that.

Foster the People currently have only one album called “Torches” it had great sales through out the world. Currently they are in their 2012 tour but they will focus to write and compose their second album.

STARS on the rise :

ALLSTAR WEEKEND 

Life´s not always equal. But I feel like if everything was equal, we would miss out on the feeling of heartache.    -Zach Porter.

Allstar Weekend is a band from Poway, California. People say they are like sort of The Jonas Brothers - Blink 182 mix. I think they are unique. Their music transmits happiness, in my case it does.
They were in Disney's N.B.T, they won second place but got to have a record deal with Hollywood Records.
Their first single was A Different Side of Me, it talks about things you wish you could be when you get older. Such as a superhero, or even singer.
They have been such inspirational boys, by the fact that even if the fame they've got in the past 2 years has been a lot. They have fought to get to where they are, like many artists. The boys' names are: Michael Martinez, he's the drummer; Cameron Quisend, he plays the bass; Zach Porter, he's the lead singer; and Dillon Anderson, he plays the keys at live shows.
Before all the fame came they were 5 members. One of them was Thomas Norris, but left the band. Nathan Darmody played the guitar but left the band before they could go on tour with Selena Gomez and The Scene. A lot of their fans were devastated, Nathan was a very important part. He is now in a solo career, and we all hope he can get far.
They have a very strong-small fanbase; but they have sticked with them through all these years which we can see is a lot of dedication. They are on tour right now, and they have sold a lot of show up until now.
The boys are extremely unique. There's Cameron, the cute one. The one most of their fans fell in love with. He has gorgeous green eyes, but if you see behind them you can see how beautiful and sincere he is as a person. He has never have had a real girlfriend and that makes him even more cute than he is. He's the kind of romantic one, and I know that he'll find his true love someday. There's Michael, the most funny of all. He's the most sincere person you could ever known. He's just himself whenever he's in an interview or on stage with his friends. He is so HAWT, and I know that beyond the egocentric guy there's someone who needs to feel loved. Many fans leave him out, they don't include him as part of the band, and maybe that's the reason why he seems to have that high esteem overload. But there's the true fans that love him as much as they love the other 3. There's Dillon, fans don't like him much. He's not that into intervies, he's basically just on live shows. But the true fans know he's really an important part in this band. And there's Zach, the most awkward person ever. He's himself everywhere he goes, he's not ashamed to be himself, and that's totally cool. He has the voice of an angel and his amazing smile can make any girl fall in love. So in general, these boys are the coolest people ever. They are not ashamed of who they are and that's one of the many reasons I fell in love with them. Check their youtube channel, watch those crazy videos they make. I promise you'll laugh, I promise you won't regret it..because to be honest I don't regret being a fan of those amazing and talented boys. Thank you Allstar Weekend for changing my life, I'd be lost without you.

Taylor Swift

´´No matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe in love stories, prince charmings & happily ever afters. Because love is fearless.´´


On December 13, 1989 a girl named Taylor Alison Swift was born. She's a famous country song-writer and musician. 
Since she was 11 years old she made her first trip to Nashville, in hopes of obtaining a major record deal. She gave copies of karaoke songs to every record label, but she got rejected. When she returned to Pennsylvania she was asked to sing the national anthem, which was a success. At 15 years old, she rejected RCA records because the company didn't gave her the right to record her own written songs. She performed at Nashville's 'The Bluebird Cafe'.  Scott Borchetta was astonished by her presentation and she signed to his record label, Big Machine Records.
In 2006 she released her first single, 'Tim McGraw', and later that year, on October 24, 2006, her self-titled album; selling 39,000 copies the first week.
In November 11, 2008 she released her second studio album named 'Fearless'', it sold 592,304 copies. Her single 'Love Story' became a hit in the pop and country charts.
In October 25, 2010 she released her third album called 'Speak Now', she wrote all the songs by herself, and it is based on all the things she wished she would've said when the moment was right. Before this date, on August 4, 2010 her first single for the album, 'Mine' was leaked and reached number 1 on iTunes.
She is very sincere when it comes to song writing, she has said before that her songs are her diary. She tries to write songs about things that have happened to her, such as break-ups, but at the same time things that her fans could relate to. She's really transparent and natural when it comes to her songs and maybe that's the reason why she's so famous. She has been in movies such like the Jonas Brothers: Concert Experience, Hannah Montana: The Movie and Valentine's Day.
She has been in 'Cover Girl' ads, which focuses on makeup and L.E.I Jeans.
She has founded a campaign to protect kids and teens from online predators.
She has been nominated to 185 awards, and has won 98 of them. In those 98 you can include 4 Grammy Awards.
She has inspire millions of people, teens most of all. She is one of the most sincere artists out there. The music industry is so lucky to have such an amazing song writer, a true role model that girls can look up to. She is never into partying and alcohol and her sincerity in everything she does makes her amazing. Ten years from now I can still see her writing songs about how magical love is, and trying to tell people that they shouldn’t give up on it. She encourages girls to be themselves and to not be ashamed of whom they really are, that they should be proud of it. In every one of her songs there’s a valuable lesson you can learn, and not only about love but about taking chances, letting go of anything that’s hurting you, to appreciate the people you have around because you never know when they will be gone, and to let you know that growing up is never easy but you should take childhood memories and live with them forever. If you give her the chance she will turn your world around, her songs will be like your drug, you’ll keep coming back for more of them. I hope her fans remember her one day, even when they have kids, and if they have, they should talk about how amazing she was. Taylor Swift will long live until the very end of times. Thank you Taylor, for inspiring us with who you are and your flawless songs.

Have we changed our hopes for fears and our dreams for plans? Can you tell me how it used to be when we really cared and when love was on our side.."
