My job recently told me I can no longer pick up extra hours, so I had an extended break dating back
to last Wednesday…

In my opinion it will be one of the most heartfelt covers released this year
and really embodies what the “King Noah” LP is about….

I feel like I am moving more towards real life music that the common individual can
relate to. I have to thank the hardships I am currently going through and writing the “King Noah” LP for
reviving this in me. My next release is called “A Hero’s Welcome,” and my inspiration for this record
came from the fact that my father, Tony Parker, was in the Army for over two decades and retired as a
Full Colonel; something still uncommon for an African American in our day and age…..

I’m currently signed to OMEG Management who steers the careers of
people like Chris Bosh, Cobra Starship, 50 Tyson, 2 Pistols and more. On the verge of a major radio
campaign for my first radio single, “On My Job,” from the “King Noah” Album my manager had a relapse
with his Leukemia; something he has been fighting for years……

Wordsmith’s “King Noah” LP will be coming soon this April…. To chronicle the journey,Wordsmith & Wegoing’n linked up to give you the play by play… make sure you check it out, Word gets deep in his Journal aswell as the album to come. Excerpts from part 1 below.

having a message in my content really makes me as a musician. Notice I said musician; I mean that because though I will always love Hip Hop I am here to make good music only. I’m not here to fit into some box of that’s commercial, that’s alternative, that’s underground. Sorry, but rapping is just the gift God gave me and my overall plan isn’t to be the nicest on the mic. I want to use my platform of music to help and provide opportunities for others in this world. I think I’m more anxious to take missions, donate money to 3rd world countries and show the world how we are truly here to do God’s work rather than flaunt the finer things in life.

Baltimore-based Wordsmith recently received the 2011-2012 ASCAPLUS Award. His music has been featured on CBS, VH1, ABC, and ESPN. It is my pleasure (Cendrine Marrouat) to interview him today.

Cendrine Marrouat: Hello Wordsmith, thank you for answering my questions. First, tell us a little more about you.

Wordsmith: Hmmmm…I would say I grew up an Army brat, though I never used the term cause I am far from a brat; I’m more of a free spirit I would say. I was able to see the world as I grew up and actually was born in Germany; this allowed me to have what is called dual Citizenship.

ASCAP Honors Baltimore Artist Songwriter Wordsmith

wordsmith@wordsmithmusic.com (Wordsmith) — Sat, 01 Oct 2011 18:18:11 GMT

Baltimore, MD (September 2011) – ASCAP, the leading artist performing rights protection organization, has honored independent artist, writer and producer, Wordsmith, with the 2011-2012 ASCAPLUS Award. This prestigious award program is for active writers in the early/mid-stages of their careers and established writers whose main activity is outside of the broadcast media. Wordsmith, one of the DMV’s most prolific artists and writers, was considered for the award after receiving several musical placements in major TV shows like “The Defender” (CBS), Design Squad Nation (PBS), 40 Most Shocking Breakups (VH1), ABC’s Most Fascinating People, Donald J Trump’s Fabulous World of Golf (Golf Channel), Six Flags Radio and more.

Wordsmith won the top honors in the ASCAPLUS “Popular Division”, lead by industry pros, Peter Filichia, Peter Keepnews, Brian Mansfiels, Melinda Newman and Pat Prescott. ASCAPLUS Awards are based on panel review of recent activity of writer applicants. Each applicant is considered on merit and in the context of all others applying. ASCAPLUS is not a contest or competition involving the critical evaluation of any specific work or works. The primary basis for panel determinations is the activity generated by each member’s catalog, with emphasis on recent performances. More than just a domestic presence, Wordsmith and his New Revolution label are also well respected internationally. Jerry Doby, an executive with Joint One Radio, Tokyo Japan says “Wordsmith and his label mates are one of the reasons American Urban Music continues to have such an impact worldwide. We are very proud to feature his music on our stations here in Japan.”

ASCAP is home to the greatest names in American music, past and present — from Duke Ellington to Dave Matthews, from George Gershwin to Stevie Wonder, from Leonard Bernstein to Beyoncé, from Marc Anthony to Alan Jackson, from Henry Mancini to Howard Shore — as well as many thousands of writers in the earlier stages of their careers.
The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) is a membership association of more than 410,000 U.S. composers, songwriters, lyricists, and music publishers of every kind of music. Through agreements with affiliated international societies, ASCAP also represents hundreds of thousands of music creators worldwide. ASCAP is the only U.S. performing rights organization created and controlled by composers, songwriters and music publishers, with a Board of Directors elected by and from the membership.
ASCAP protects the rights of its members by licensing and distributing royalties for the non-dramatic public performances of their copyrighted works. ASCAP’s licensees encompass all who want to perform copyrighted music publicly. ASCAP makes giving and obtaining permission to perform music simple for both creators and users of music.
