REID's My Jam Dance Break
MARCUS REID aka The Renaissance Man Is a Multi-talented Professional Artist/Entrepreneur that is hitting the Pittsburgh Scene in 2008! Spreading his love for Music, Dance, Education, Mentoring and Providing Positive Entertainment! After 7 years of developing his skillz and business saavy. He is ready to Showcase his talents to more of the Pittsburgh Area launching his Music Career in 2008!
THE BEGINNING: The raw talent and music potential was there since birth, but a music career for Marcus Reid was not a twinkle in his eye until late in his teens. At 8 years old the image of a performer, the soul of music, and the passion to entertain, was introduced and colorfully illustrated by his mother, a singer and church choir soprano, as she rehearsed weekend nights in the den room of their Natrona Heights home. His senior year in high school, the light that was dormant in his eyes began to shine and he was compelled to take the stage and sing before he graduated. So that spring, Marcus sang his first "official" solo in front of a packed high school auditorium at their year-end "Spring Fling Choral Concert". He sang Usher "One day You'll Be Mine". "He performed with Charisma" said his Aunt Lisa after seeing him on stage for the first time. "Despite the numbing and nervous feelings I had seconds before I took the stage, once the music started, I was instantly at peace and the artist inside of me took over. “ “When I finished, the cheers and applause from the crowd was exhilarating! That's when my love for entertaining started." -Reid Now, after seven years of singing, writing, rapping, dancing, recording, endless rehearsing, defining his skills, and most importantly growing closer to GOD and his son Jesus Christ… The Multi-talented Artist/Entrepreneur is hitting the Pittsburgh Scene in 2008! Setting the course for Positive HIP HOP, R&B, POP and Christian Music, Inspiring the Youth, Setting an example and raising the bar for the future generations of Artists and Entertainers.
THE ARTIST: Marcus Reid aka TRM, The Renaissance Man, delivers energy, passion and inspiration with every performance! Combining the 3 elements of Rapping, Singing, and Hip hop Dance in every performance puts him in a class that only a few can enter. His un-quenching desire to create lyrical stories and paint pictures of his life and the lives of others and express them through his songs is simply a blessing from GOD! "It's socially sophisticated RAP and Hip Hop." REID is a smart, educated gentleman and an artist with an extended vocabulary. He loves to use play on words, and clever analogies and metaphors.
THE ROLE MODEL: But what sets him apart from traditional HIP HOP/RAP artists is his humility and respect for his listeners. He never uses profanities or offensive language in any of his lyrics. Period. No exceptions. “This is how I was raised. Cursing, sexual innuendos, and disrespect to my fellow brothers and sisters would be disrespecting my parents and grandparents teachings. I believe in Unity and serving those that are less fortunate. My mission is to deliver good, positive music with meaningful lyrics. To create "Role Model Musicians" and be a role model for the youth and fellow artists. "GOD has given me this assignment and the tools to carry it out. My Mission has begun." My 2nd Solo CD “TRM2: The Mission” releasing Feb 09
THE ENTREPRENUER: His love for both Business and Music is a match made in heaven! A Finance major from Univ. of Pitt, REID has a deep understanding of Business. But it didn’t require 4 years to receive it. He mastered the art of Multi-tasking, time management and job-role playing. He maintains all Cd sales, expenses, bookkeeping etc. in excel spreadsheets and business software programs. He handles all show bookings and agreements (booked/accepted 24 shows in 2008). And he designs and maintains www.reidrecords.com, and www.myspace.com/reidrecords for e-commerce… ”I’m becoming a wiser and more experienced businessman everyday”
THE BUSINESS: REID RECORDS Music and Entertainment “My vision for REID RECORDS started in 2001 after paying for studio time to record my first 2 songs at a home studio in Wilkinsburg.” He realized that with the technology today, he was able to purchase and assemble his own home studio, produce his own music, provide recording services to others, and create and sale RR products and merchandise (Cd's, t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats etc.) He would package and distribute them locally himself until the volumes and revenue picked up, then expand his market and team. “So with endless research, Q&A, observations and some key purchases, over the next few years. I assembled my home studio and developed my business model.” . As the business slowly materialized, his skills, objectives, and his mission had time to take shape and be defined… RR is dedicated to providing Positive Music and Family Entertainment thru HIP-HOP, R&B, POP, and Christian Music as well as educating and Mentoring the Youth.
