Mock - Up Article

Mock-up of the article

Who is the biggest up and coming star in the world of music? If you answered Sam B you are absolutely correct. From starting his music career singing and playing the guitar on YouTube to signing a record deal with Lucille Studios, Sam B has had a rise like many others however his has been filled with expectation and excitement due to his style and themes. With the release of his brand new album ‘Fresh’ we decided here at Paradox it was time to invite him down for a chat about his life so far and how he planned to continue his rise.

Thank you for joining us here Sam, what do you think is the main reason for your success?

I honestly don’t know, it’s all a blur really. One day I’m in my bedroom singing to a camera and the next day I’m in a recording booth writing my own songs professionally, its really weird that so much has happened in such a short space of time.

What advice would you give someone who is currently on YouTube trying to get a contract?

Just keep at it, that’s all the advice I can really give. I don’t know what I did that made me so special but all labels are trying to find new talent to sing for them.

You burst onto the scene with your song ‘New World’, what inspired you to make that song? Ihad quite a tough childhood when I was younger as we were always moving house because of my dad so I wanted to make a song that was almost dedicated to my parents, without actually being dedicated to them. They lyrics Im sure can relate to people and that’s all I really want is for people to understand my lyrics. I’m honestly just amazed that the song did that well really, especially for a debut single.

Will it appear on your album?

Of course, I would never leave my best song out, not that the others aren’t great.

What would you say is the best thing about your album?

Its style and the way that the lyrics talk to you about life stories and they’re not just songs about drugs and money, but me and my life…if feel as though once you let the lyrics talk to you it helps you understand everything a lot better

Where can we find your album?

On iTunes, google play, in stores, most places that you find any other magazine.

What is the next step for you?

So I’m going to be finishing the tour of America before coming back to the UK and beginning to write new and exciting songs.

Thank you for your time

Purchase Sam B’s new album ‘Fresh’ on the 25^th November at all good retailers. Next week we have an exclusive interview with the man who believes he is Elvis reincarnated

The main feature article is a solo artist called Sam B who is promoting his brand new debut album as the biggest new artist in the genre.

Profile:

Is a 20 year old male solo artist called Sam B who started his career on YouTube before signing a professional contract with a record label at the age of 18. He is about to release his debut album, Fresh, which is causing waves in the industry for its unique touch and sound. Many of his lyrics are considered controversial and offensive, however his lyrics and style has made him an icon because of his honesty in his music and the reality he sings about. He is very intelligent and knows how to play the media in order to make him either seem as the hero or the innocent bystander. In school he took music along with other creative subjects such as art, although he did take some of the harder more academic subjects such as maths and science in order to push his knowledge to the maximum. He was born in London, England and often performs in shows across the UK, such as Glastonbury this year; however he is currently in Los Angeles promoting his new album to his American audience. He is often seen wearing casual clothes and likes to stop and take pictures with fans on the street, this publicity has helped him to gain more momentum in the number of fans that he has. He runs several social media pages and often responds to fans questions making him a fan favourite with music audiences. He is not really compared to anyone else in the music industry due to his style and tone.
