BABY KING RECORDS - THE COMPANY My first introduction to music was when a grade school friend, Alvin Campbell introduced
me to the piano. When he played "Sweet Love" by the Spinners, I was hooked. After that my hunger for music grew. I then meet
long time friends Kenyatta "Tally" Galbreth, Mark Jones and with Roosevelt Simpkins we went into the studio and started recording
tracks. Where I met my music mentor "Eric Albert Sealls". Eric graduated with a music degree from Colgate University.. He
taught me how to arrange music, mix tracks, write songs and he gave me vocal training. Eric's untimely death left me with
a void in the music business. As I came to reality, I realized that both of our common goals were to be heard in the music
business. Being an artist, song writer or music executive and also from experience formed Baby King Records. Baby King Represents
the growth of my deceased grandson "MAYHISS" and with death we shall have internal life. This label is to create music with
a meaning and redirect negativity of today's music as a whole. Music has no ethnic boundaries. My artist has to consist of
"HTWE' which means Hunger, Talent and Work Ethics! Baby King Records' CEO "AARON WILSON, SR., is not afraid to take the big
shot at the end of the game. He has a throbbing hunger to win and win big. The time is right, the moon is set lined up with
the sun to put a total eclispe on the music industry. With the help of the world wide net makes the big dogs aka major labels
stop and take notice. This country was built on independence and as you noticed it's time for the independent labels to take
control of the music industry once again. Time repeats itself time and time again as the major labels jockey for position
to bring the big hits or the next big artist. Remember Motown CEO Barry Gordy had a heavy hitting line up of Super Stars like
Diana Ross and the Supremes, Smokey Robinson and THe Miracles, Martha & The Vandella's, The Temptations, The Spinners,
The Isley Brothers, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and the list goes on and on with no disrespect to the ones that I didn't. Today's
independent labels' like Jive Records, Mix A Lot, and The early Bad Boy Label produced a mountain of hit recordings. The music
never changes, although sometimes we misinterpet it. Many of today's artist change their original styles to sign with major
record labels. It seems again that independent labels give artist the opportunity to express themselves in volume. If you
can remember Anita Bakers' first hit song Angel was on a independent label called Beverly Hills Records. R. Kelly, Joe, Kanya
West, who are just a few of the "Hottest Song Writers and Producers" in the game today. Right now the the A&R of the major
labels are kicking themselves in the ass for letting these diamonds in the ruff slip away. INDEPENDENT LABELS ARE HERE TO
STAY!
