My folk Lil C is fresh off his latest performance at The Independent Industry Night and just dropped his single entitled “Atlanta” with Lil Hot and LA Da Boomman. I have to admit they did their thing on this track and it should be an instant hit this summer. Call up Hot 107.9 and V103 and request this song. With a new venue on the way and track like this everyone will be sure to have a good time. Everyone should look forward to the future of Contact Atlanta and Lil C !!!!!!! #LEGGO

Usher’s New Look Leadership Academy
In this world filled with the negative aspects of everyone’s life you have to smile when you see others giving back to their community. Usher Raymond’s (URSHER RAYMOND if u from da A) New Look Leadership Academy helps children during the most critical years of their lives: Teenage. Usher offers participants a 2 year program that exposes the teens to various high level job opportunities. These opportunities include shadowing some of the major figures with Corporations and Non-Profits.
…..Over the years, our team has had the privilege to meet and work with so many talented and passionate young people. New Look alumni are no longer learning how to be leaders . . . they are. We are proud to report that 98% of New Look alumni graduate from high school and 100% of those graduates attend college. While those results are enough to recognize our youth as leaders, they are also currently serving as Congressional aides, sitting on non-profit Boards of Directors, starring in major motion pictures, interning at major media outlets, attending prestigious universities with academic and athletic scholarships, starting their own non-profits and businesses, and so much more…….
