Artists With Class For Class! Words By Joe Peace!
It all started because Raymond Tyler wants to help artists live their dreams.
Tyler understands that artists can do more together than apart.
Tyler explains "When you have artists that understand that my success does not take away from your success it's a good thing. However, when the same group of creative people are actually happy when any of us succeed and understand that we all benefit? That friends is a blessing."
While all of The Next Artists will not be at The Back To School Jam, the ones that will are going to give the students from ACHS one serious show.
POETRY ANNE LYRIX- is what "speaking from the heart" looks like. This young woman steps on a stage like she was born ready and commands the mic like she was built to "MOVE THE CROWD."
Her Messages Can Make X-Clan take a second look at their blackness "SISSIES!"
Noel Tyminski-Is building her own genre that DJ Trouble Man calls "GREEN EYED SOUL."
At 14 or 15 years old she understands more about Soul Music than most of the 25 and under R&B singers you hear 5 times an hour on the radio. Tyler says of Noel. "I would rather have Noel do one song on my show. Than to have several songs by artists with a bigger following who do not understand their craft and do not love it enough to make it better." In Short. Noel has to be heard to believed. I heard her voice. Now I'm A Believer!
Cheryl B. Sellers-Can be nick named the lynch pin. If Raymond Tyler is the mind behind The Next Artists, Cheryl "Miss Cheryl" Sellers is the glue that keeps it together. Cheryl's biggest value today is behind the scenes and in welcoming all to the events. However Cheryl gets her shine on at every event and holds down two radio shows as a producer. Sunday's at 4pm she can be heard on The Weekend Mix Tape with her segment (that is really a show with in a show) GOLDEN on 91.7 FM WLFR and then on Monday's she's on WNJC 1360 am at 6pm with The Music and Entertainment Report. She also has 2 best selling books out from Publish America.
Michelle Moseley-The Choice of The Next Generation. Michelle is not only The Hood's Favorite Female Poet but she has been known to make crowd yell and shout in the burbs as well.
Michelle has a grasp for understanding the human life like few other poets you will ever hear.
She has multiple CD's out and has build an audience that would go to war for this spoken word "soldier."
Tyler believes "Moseley is the young female version of who I was several years ago. She comes to the venue handles her business, gives out her blessings, and encourages all to be better than when she stepped on stage. You will not hear her speak and be the same person. If that's not why we do poetry? What the heck are we doing with our lives." She is also a producer of The Weekend Mix Tape on WLFR.

DJ Trouble Man-Is Raymond Tyler when he's on the turn tables. Tyler has been spinning and remixing music since the tender age of 15 and he's a little older than that now. He just wants to share some good music. He has one other goal. "I want people to go home and talk about how I played their fave music for them. That's what the DJ's I loved and still love make me do when I hear them." Off Stage Tyler is the writer of Shiny Boxes from Publish America.
