Precise Instinct Producer Double Cee started in 1990 with various underground recordings featured on some college radio like Morgan State University that were produced, written and conceived by Double Cee. He performed at various colleges in Maryland like Salisbury State University and University of Maryland Baltimore County. Precise Instinct then moved to Atlanta in 1998 and did various showcases. He joined the military and went overseas to Germany where his hip-hop expertise increased by meeting various German MCs and producers. However, he has managed to stay underground mainly because of his insistence on controlling the outcome of the music he that makes. Currently, the Mason Dixon line project is being released from the Myspace page as well as other sites like iTunes, CD Baby and more. This work will incorporate tracks that feature his North/South styles of hip-hop.

Being a longtime bassist and songwriter, Rod Kinny has had several ventures in the music business.Rod's music has a unique boil with influences from Peter Gabriel to Roy Orbison. His current songs range from love ballads, such as "Electric Air," to "Spam Town," a rock-ish tongue-in-cheek stab at his hometown of Austin, Minnesota, to the eclectic "Wonderland," written about his life living in London and whose title was taken from the independent film by director Michael Winterbottom. Early 2002 saw the release of his first solo effort, "Seven Dials," a very savvy nine song CD. From the introspective "Strife," to the effervescence of "Robins & Blackbirds" to the masterful "Wonderland," "Seven Dials" has a great deal to offer.

From the western city of Palm Beach County a musical entertainer named Slave Child has emerged. He was born on October 30, 1980 in Pahokee, Fl. and named Phildavior Lane. Slave Child was one of three children raised by a single parent (mother) carried on the responsibility of male seeing that his other siblings were females.
During his childhood years, Slave Child enjoyed writing rhymes because they seem to take away the pressures and struggle it took just to survive everyday living. His writing became serious to him after the death of his older sister who was an up and coming rapper. One of his missions is to become a rising rapper to fill the void the music industry missed.
For years Slave Child searched for a musical family that would take his talent, mold it and prepare him for the world to hear. He was introduced to Black Minds Entertainment, Corp. in March 2003. He left such a huge impression on the CEO that Slave Child was asked to come back the next week to audition for B.M.E’s. head producer. Slave Child was signed the next week.
Slave Child is a force to be reckoned within the music industry. His style of music will have you asking for more. With a very charismatic, attitude he is a very easy and humble person to work with. Black Minds Entertainment, Corp. is very proud to be associated with a fine young man. When you get to know him, you will feel the same way.

DDQ the R&B group was formed in 2001 by Dontavious Vancliff in Philadelphia, the group consists of four Philadelphia natives; Brian Seagraves 19, Omar “Osinee” Alexander 18, Dontavious “DJ” Vancliff 17, and Josh Banks 20. They have blended the sounds of their favorite groups (New Edition, Jodeci, and the Jackson 5) to come up with the DDQ Sound. After two years of practicing and performing cover tunes, DDQ was introduced to Osinee’s cousin Charlene who at the time was doing some A&R work for an independent label called KeyLife Records. After hearing the young gentlemen, they were immediately signed to a development deal and put in the studio. Since that day in November, DDQ has developed over ten songs and even shot a video for their debut single “Stuck on Freeze”.
In August 2004, DDQ performed at the Billboard Hip Hop and R&B Music Conference in Miami where they were given a standing ovation by Billboard staff and attendees.
"These young guys are awesome, we loved them..."Joanna Johnson, Billboard

Inspired by her mother’s love of the piano, Shauna Burns began playing as a small child in her native home of Miami. By the time Shauna reached the age of fifteen, she had discovered her own talent as a singer and was already composing.
After moving west for college, Shauna found a whole new level of inspiration in the high deserts and mountains of Nevada and Utah. She poured her emotions into her music and began playing regularly at a coffee house in Salt Lake City. Shauna’s unique fusion of alternative rock, folk and Celtic sounds soon won fans and rave reviews from music critics.
After graduating, Shauna moved to Las Vegas and began concentrating on her music full-time. After a year in Europe putting together her first collection of songs, she recorded "Every Thought." The debut album, released under the record label Red Rock Music, LLC, is both intense and soothing, a complex blend of sounds and lyrics that resonates within the listener.
"Music has always been there for me," Shauna explains. "It’s been a close friend and teacher, drawing me in like this unexpected force, pulling me. It’s the journey in how I view everything around me. It comes from the purest place I’ve ever known."

The Worderer touched down on U.S soil in 1998 from his West Indian birthplace of Barbados with one driving mission in mind, to push his creative career to the highest level possible. His style is smooth and simplistic and given his cultural background it should come as no surprise that he is equally fluent in the Reggae and soca styles of music. Lyrically he's like the West Indian version of Common or Kanye West and has no qualms about tackling unorthodox lyric concepts. Like him or not, one must concede that The Worderer has a very unique flow that may take a little getting used to but is certainly one that will grow on you with each listen.
