Really not much we can say here except for LISTEN to the interview as Kaye Fox talks about her upbringing in Chicago, her favorite music inspirations and what really got her writing seriously. You don’t want to miss on ‘who’ Kaye Fox is and what she has been doing for the past few years. “We can manifest our destinies” #FemaleFlow
It’s that time again…. Female Flow along with The Hype Magazine presents GET IN THE FLOW II Contest and we are looking for the hottest ladies in the world to be featured on the next mixtape and DVD! Tell a friend and be on the look out for the Vol 7, 8 & 9 of Female Flow. Submit until Jan 31, 2014
From the moment we saw Justina live we knew she was something of a special sauce but once we witnessed her grind we couldn’t help but get on board with her. She moves like a locomotive through anything and anyone to share her music from block parties, private events, fashion shows to your local venues. Wait let me stop… she just flew back from LA so unsurprisingly enough NJ just isn’t big enough to hold this force. In her latest video, “Halloween” which was entirely shot in New Jersey and directed by Jon Kilmer Studios features some ratchet princesses who just can’t seem to keep it together. They all “turn up” in the video from dancers to grave walkers… they are just a bunch of scary b!tches. Justina looks great from hot pink pants, long ponytails to a wonder-woman look she killed the lines. #FemaleFlowApproved follow her now on twitter/@JustinaMusic

JUSTINA
Born and raised in Passaic County, New Jersey, Justina grew up surrounded by music. Justina’s hip hop infused pop music is clearly a voice for the rebellious youth and her distinctive, raspy tone is hard to miss. Her strong and sometimes abrasive character, along with her fun-loving personality, is evident in tracks like the JR Rotem and Shy Boogs produced “Gangsta” and the Mr. Lee produced “Gloves Off”.
An avid supporter of writing her own music, Justina is a breath of fresh air in an industry where an artist’s point of view is sometimes hidden. Justina’s original composition, “Gotta Make a Change”, was selected for ShopRite’s Partners in Caring ‘Expressions of Hunger’ national contest and she was featured on the back of General Mill’s Cheerios box in September 2010. She has performed at numerous venues including The Market America International Conventions in Miami, FL and Greensboro, NC (for crowds of 30k), The Susan G. Komen for the Cure ‘Babes Burnin’ Rubber’ breast cancer benefit at Motorsports Park Millville, NJ, The China Club, 40/40, and the Atlantic City’s Pepsi Car Show. Justina’s music has also been featured on popular television shows such as NBC’S Steven Spielberg directed “Smash”, VH1’s “Mob Wives”, Oxygen Network’s “Runnin Russell Simmons”, and MTV’s “True Life”. Her video, ‘Hard to the Body’, recently appeared on Spike TV’s “Top 100 YouTube Videos”.
GENESIS BE
From Mississippi this now NYU graduate currently resides in Brooklyn and is working non-stop to promote her album by street teaming and performances. So far, Genesis Be has blessed the stage at The Blue Note, Webster Hall, The Knitting Factory,The Magic Johnson Theater, Sullivan Hall, The Bowery Poetry, Sin Sin Freestyle Mondays, Crash Mansion, The National Underground and the XR Bar among others. She was recently a featured artist for Shady 45’s “Don’t Quit Your Day Job” and received a score of 4.75 on a scale of 1 to 5. She was also featured in The Washington Square News, Student Maximus Magazine and numerous blogs including Buzzfeed.com.
Genesis Be just finished recording her 5th studio project “Jenesequa”, which she plans to release late summer. Her first single, “Don’t Touch” has been well received among the underground strip club scene in MS and Louisiana as well as YouTube consumers, garnishing over 23k within the first two weeks of release. Be, who is affiliated with SESAC publishing, is currently seeking management and shopping “Jenesequa” to labels and sponsors.
J Sass & Cee Cee
J. SASS & CEE CEE formed a movement called #TRMZ which stand for TRU REAL MA. A movement to inspire women to follow their dreams. J. SASS & CEE CEE are both solo artists but colab a lot together to show unity in womanhood. J SASS is the more social one who brings lots of energy,whose a crowd grabber with sassiness like no other to the stage, while CEE CEE bringds the strong demeanor sexy voice with raw lyrics. They are both dope artists but together they are invisible. Most compare them to the new Salt & Pepper or the females Styles P & Jada Kiss of Hiphop. A pair to keep a look out for is these lovely and talented ladies, J.SASS & CEE CEE. Both born and raised in Jersey City, NJ they are holding it down for the queens in New Jersey.
SKY-LYN
Sky-Lyn is a young Puerto Rican artist, born into street credibility from the rough streets of Passaic, New Jersey. She is no stranger to the dangers of the streets. Sky-Lyn had one thing to get through rough times and that was her passion for singing. As a child, she would often try to out sing sing-alongs. At the age of three she knew singing was her passion when she caught a fit because she wanted to sing the “Day-O” (the banana boat song).
Since then the crowds just got bigger. While singing in central park at eight years old she was discovered by the Sally Jesse Raphael show. Sky-Lyn was ahead of her time. The list of notables that she has worked with grew tremendously including Celia Cruz, La India, Brenda K Starr, Cam’ron, Tank, Gucci Mane, and Vado, just to name a few. She has sung for political events which enabled her to meet Christy Whitman, Hillary Clinton, and other political figures.

So I rolled up, grabbed my camera and started taking flicks and video at Club Pyramid in NYC to catch Ms. RnB April of Jersey City, NJ. She was the only female on the stage in the plethora of male emcees who did their thing but this is why we need to get the ladies on the stage… it makes a great night, breaks it up and of course adds the beauty to the room (wink)
Speaking of beauty RnB April was looking fabulous in her Delicious Wear by Junior as well as her glowing face with bright red lipstick from her makeup artist Sketch. Junior also styled April’s hair with a long, layered & curl flip. The dress was shiny, fitting and different that most all black dresses….almost intergalactic!
We had a good time and also s/o to DJ G Money who held down the tables.
Video coming to FemaleFlow DVD

Life as an artist…
This is not an easy road. We grew up hearing the phrase “starving artists” for years but never really knew what it meant until we decided that we wanted to make a “living” creating.
Whether you paint, produce, spin, write, sing or rap your life of expression can be a far cry from what the real reality is…. paying bills. BUT there is a sense of peace & happiness in your art that you just can’t find in a 9 to 5. Many of the ladies I speak to are mothers, working full or part-time and in the studio instead of sleeping or on their valuable days off. I salute you. When you make sacrifices, learn the business, dedicate your “extra” hours to your passion of expression in the hopes that someone will hear you, know that I hear you.
I just wanted to put up a post to let you know that even if we don’t post every single thing we listen, we hear you and we encourage you. We hope that you continue with the fight. We hope you push just a little bit more to pull out of yourself what you know is there….and even if it doesn’t “blow up” or make the charts your work is ever-lasting, stamped and etched into time. You just never know where exactly your music will go and when it will get there. Stay true. Stay consistent and remember to let it FLOW!
XOXO,
FF
