Noel “Detail” Fisher has been behind the scenes crafting the biggest hits for Beyonce, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Jennifer Lopez and more.
Producing for those household names got him his first big hit with 2011?s “How To Love,” which established Detail as an artist who can do more than just create a hot beat. His songwriting and hookcraft abilities have helped him emerge as one of the biggest and most well-rounded talents in hip-hop today.
Detail was first known for being a co-executive on Ray J’s Raydiation, which was his first major contributions on an album. However, times have changed for the Detroit, MI native, who is currently working in the studio with the likes of Jay-Z, Drake and Beyonce?.
“When you’re in Detroit there’s nothin’ to do. There’s no opportunity” Detail explains.
“All of the record labels left, and it’s just been a desert. All I could do was ,sing, play the piano and write. I came up from that era of just tapping into all genres of music. It’s not different than having a house and pulling in the person that does the air conditioner and the person that does the plumbing;’ that’s what I’m doing with my music. It’s a household and I’m connecting with the best people to make that happen.”
With production in the works for Jay-Z, Enrique Iglesias and more, Detail is slated to not only be one of the most talked about names in music, but will be defining the sound of our modern generation.

Myles Alexander Keaton Smith, a Violinist/Hip-hope artist whose talents and performances are unlike any other. “I perform positive, constructive music without being preachy, corny or profane,” says Smith with his trademark unassuming charisma. His humility and humanity have earned him his stage name, Humble G Tha Fiddla. A resident of Cleveland, Ohio, top ten member of Cleveland’s Got Talent and a student from the Cleveland School of The Arts, it is Humble’s self-taught violin playing that captivates contemporary audiences as he blends to perfection the edginess of hip hop with the radical elegance of strings. His MC skills are on point and he moves effortlessly from rapping to picking up a violin and playing over hip hop tracks. Seeing is believing.
“Brothers Keeper” and “Ride for Me” are two songs that amplify how this artist has masterfully bridged two musical worlds. He has delivered over 500 high energy shows with a unique twist. Humble is launching his Stop the Hate/High School/College Tour, his mix tape, One of a Kind, and his album, Undeniable. He routinely makes time for performances at nonprofit gigs in schools, prisons and peace rallies. To an audience of 7,000, Humble opened for Barack Obama in Cleveland, Ohio.
His future is vested in the inspiration of a new generation of musical talent that does positive music.His artistic temperament is funneled through a generous and loving spirit that, according to Humble, is, “Be Wise, Be Confident but above all, Be humble.”
Humble is a co-founder and independent artist with Global Entertainment Incorporated, a Cleveland based entertainment company that specializes in music that challenges the heart and the head. “Humble understands the magnitude of his gifts and the responsibility to use them in a productive manner,” says Gary Martinis, President of Spittin Rhymes Productions LTD. Humble is also a member of “Violins Against Violence,” a program which putsviolins in the hands of Ohio 3rd graders, and is an active member of the Cleveland Entertainment Coalition.
FOX’s new hit show Empire is rolling out some serious musical talent. Enter rising starlet V Bozeman. You may recognize her as the powerhouse vocalist who stole your heart within the first two minutes of the pilot episode, singing her single “What Is Love?”
Before linking with Lee Daniels for his syndicated venture, Bozeman has been in the shadow of the music industry for several years. Currently signed to Timbaland’s record label, Mosley Music Group via Epic Records, V has worked with Timbo, songwriter Cee-Lo Green, and producer Polow Da Don on her latest musical projects. Bozeman was introduced to Timbo after working with singer Timothy Bloom, formerly signed to Timbaland. She showed him the visual to her powerful ballad “Race Jones” and Timbo was hooked ever since.
“He was like ‘Yo! You need to be on this new show Lee Daniels is doing for FOX’,” she recalls. “I was like ‘Okay’ but you know, I didn’t think really too much of it. The next day, Timbaland called and said, ‘I showed [Lee] “Race Jones” and he was like ‘Yo where is this girl? I need to see her, I want to put her in Empire!’ Then Lee connected with my manager and it’s been history since then.”
On the show, Bozeman plays Veronika, the soul siren signed to Empire Records. New to the acting world, Bozeman says it was an experience sharing the screen with Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson. “Terrence just embraced me immediately. Taraji embraced me immediately and just said ‘You better be ready for this girl because this is going to be out of here!’ Everyone on the set was just amazing,” she says.
On the music front, Bozeman finished two albums last summer and will be releasing them both this year. Before her solo debut Music is My Boyfriend drops this summer, her collaborative album with Timbaland, Opera Noire, will arrive late February/ early March and is, what she describes, “so powerful it’ll hit the [music] industry in a way it’s never been hit before.” -VIBE
