Tour joined by MIKESCHAIR, After Edmund, Tedashii and Sho Baraka

Following a successful run of the “Don’t Waste Your Life” summer tour, Reach Records recording artist Lecrae presents a mix of Christian Rock and Rap music this fall on the “Altered Minds Tour.” Launching on October 1, the tour will travel to 26 cities along with Christian Rock bands MIKESCHAIR and After Edmund as well as Lecrae’s labelmates Sho Baraka and Tedashii, who will join the tour in October and November, respectively.

Returning from Sydney, Australia’s largest Christian Event, Big Exo Day, it’s been a busy time for Lecrae since releasing 'Rebel,' the highest debuting Christian Rap album on Billboard charts. Collaborating for the first time with MIKESCHAIR and After Edmund, the tour was birthed out of the desire to represent unity within the Body of Christ. Representing four varying styles of music from two genres and an array of cultures, the “Altered Minds Tour” will come together like never before to platform music with solid ministry infused throughout each night.

Maintaining his role as President of Reach Records and ReachLife Ministries, Lecrae’s extensive traveling schedule remains committed to spreading the Gospel by sharing his Christ-centered, transparent experiences, messages and music. The Dove Award nominated artist released his junior album titled 'Rebel' last year and continues to appear on music charts. Peaking to the No. 1 position on Billboard’s Top Gospel charts, No. 2 on Billboards Top Christian & Gospel Album chart and No. 3 on iTunes’ mainstream Top Rap/Hip Hop album chart, learn more about Lecrae, his music and ministry at www.myspace.com/lecrae

With roots in Houston, TX, Tedashii brings a distinct flavor to the industry. Appearing on the “Altered Minds Tour" in October only, Tedashii’s sophomore album, 'Identity Crisis,' peaked to the #2 position on the Billboard Top Gospel Charts. The album offers up a satisfying slab mixtape-style hip-hop featuring heavy-hitting club fare that, even while resembling more secular material, contains a powerful, spiritual message that is undoubtedly worship-oriented.

Canadian-bred Sho Baraka was introduced to hip hop at a young age. Living in Southern California during the height of gangsta rap presented its challenges to many youth, as well as Sho. Since collaborating in music ministry since college with Lecrae, Sho Baraka has since released his debut album 'Turn My Life Up' which explores what it means reflect who we are as believers in a culture that needs the Lord. Appearing on the “Altered Minds Tour" in November only, Sho Baraka is set for his sophomore release of Lions and Liars in 2010, stay tuned to www.myspace.com/shobaraka for more information
Born out of an impromptu jam session in a Belmont University dorm room, Curb Records recording artist, MIKESCHAIR has been cranking out tunes since its freshman formation six years ago. MIKESCHAIR has turned a viable corner with their self-titled debut album featuring the worship-driven single “Can’t Take Away” and their latest single “Let the Waters Rise.” For more information about MIKESCHAIR, visit www.myspace.com/mikeschair

Georgia alt-rock band After Edmund (named after the Edmund character in C.S. Lewis’ The Chronicles of Narnia) has been electrifying the regional scene and beyond since 2001, touring tirelessly and refining a potent alternative sound.

FLG "Deus Espera Mais"

Espetacular! Essa é a definição para o novo álbum do Quarteto FLG. "Deus Espera Mais", é um CD que surpreendeu todas as minhas expectativas, e com certeza de toda a galera que curte o "Feeling". O quarteto lança um álbum "Bombástica", co músicas que nos leva a refletir sobre o Amor de Deus, e que nos alerta para que possamos fugir das armadilhas do diabo, e venhamos ter um verdadeiro compromisso com Deus. Hoje comparo o FLG, com os melhores grupos de R&B dos Estadous Unidos como: Group1Crew, The Washington Projects, Canton Jones, Tonéx, entre outros. A Black Music brasileira está muito bem representada pelo Feeling! A Banda tem a chamada 'pegada", que muitos grupos não tem , e os caras demonstram emoção na música que cantam, um elemento que está sendo extinto principalmente na música gospel. A cada CD o FLG se supera, e que continuem assim representando a "Música Preta Brasileira", seja no meio cristão ou no secular. Ouça Algumas música do Quarteto FLG no www.myspace.com/quartetoflg

Spectacular! This is the definition for the new album of the Quartet FLG. "God Expect More" is a CD that surprised all my expectations, and certainly all the people that enjoy the "Feeling". The quartet released an album "bombastic", with music that makes us reflect on God's love, and warns us that we may escape the snares of the devil, and we get a true commitment to God. Today I compare the FLG, with the best groups of the R & B Estadous States as Group1Crew, The Washington Projects, Canton Jones, Tonex, among others. The Black Music Brazil is well represented by the Feeling! The band is called 'footprint' that many groups do not have, and the guys show emotion in the music they sing, an element that is being phased out mainly in gospel music. With each album, the FLG is overcome, and that that will continue representing the "Black Music of Brazil" is in the Christian or secular.

This is It


Dia 28 de outubro chega aos cinemas de todo o mundo o filme mais esperado do ano! "This is It", é um documentário que mostra os últimos ensaios de Michael Jackson, que se preparava para uma turnê de 50 shows na arena O2 em Londres. O documentário será lançado mundialmente em 28 de outubro, e ficará em cartaz por apenas duas semanas. A pré-estreia de gala será em Los Angeles no Nokia Theatre. Mais de 15 cidades, incluindo Nova York, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Londres, Berlim, Johanesburgo e Seul, iniciarão o evento simultaneamente. Os eventos de abertura incluirão transmissões via satélite de astros de Hollywood chegando à première em Los Angeles. O documentário é dirigido por Kenny Ortega ( "High School Musical), e reúne material das mais de 100 horas de vídeo produzidas durante os ensaios para a turnê “This is it”. O contrato de US$ 60 milhões para a criação do filme foi fechado entre os herdeiros de Jackson, a empresa AEG Live, que estava promovendo os concertos, e a Sony Pictures. Com base na arrecadação do filme, nas vendas de álbuns e em negócios fechados desde a morte do cantor, os administradores de seu patrimônio esperam gerar mais de US$ 200 milhões de receita até o final do ano.
