Blaze front man seeks soulful artists for new label

Josh Milan plans on bringing the soul sound back into music with his artists on Honey Comb Music.

“My artists will be partners in my record company,” said Milan, 41, who hails from Brooklyn, N.Y., but lives in the Poconos. “They will be involved in all aspects of the business. In this business, what you don’t know, they won’t tell you, so shame on the artist for not knowing. But I won’t do that to my artists.”

I don’t want my mother-in-law to live with us!

Dear Gwendolyn:

I have been married for 18 years and my husband wants his mother to move in with us.  She is 96 years old and in failing health. I don’t want to seem selfish, but I told my husband she needs to be in a nursing home facility.  I cannot take care of another person. I provided health care to my mother, my aunt, my uncle and a neighborhood friend.  I am all beat out. Do you think I am being unfair? I believe my husband will leave me if I don’t agree to his mother’s move-in.—Jeanette

Out & About with Brotha Ash

This week I visited Riverview Park on the North Side, Roland’s Seafood Grill in the Strip District, Club 21 in the Strip District, The Red Onion in the Hill District and Melange Bristo Bar in Downtown Pittsburgh.

My first stop was at Riverview Park on the North Side where the Pittsburgh Ruff Ryders held their annual picnic with folks from the city of Pittsburgh in attendance. It was great to see all the bikers reunited and having a great time.

Chicken, Young Meez bring originality to hip-hop

Andre Jones and Jeromy Cherry are brothers from the Hill District, who along with NBA basketball star DeJuan Blair formed “Put On Productions.”

Jones aka Chicken is 22 and his brother Cherry aka Young Meez is 20. These young men are making waves on the hip-hop scene in Pittsburgh and across the country. There music is a combination of conscious music with a mainstream appeal. Even though they have the production company together with Blair, they are solo artists.
