Belle Aire is an infinitely creative writer and Music Artist who currently dwells in Los Angeles. Hailing from San Diego, she was immersed in the artistic realm early on and the universal love of music has been her driving force ever since.
With her loving, free-spirit, and outgoing personality combined, it certainly feels like love is in the “Aire” when she’s performing on stage for all of her wonderful “Aires” (heirs or fans). Belle Aire’s songs are windows into her soul, life journey, and dreams.
When it comes to Belle Aire’s musical influences, they’re countless and include original movie musical Annie, Whitney Houston, Tina Tuner, Michael Jackson, and Toni Braxton. Additionally, Keith Washington, Dark Child, Ike Turner and Joe Ryan all of which she has collaborated with in the past inspire her immensely. Out of everyone, though, the little girl inside her heart still loves the character Annie Because she was always seen as the girl with the least potential but she dreamed big and saw the greater good in everyone and came out on top! As much as the Soul and R&B genres awakened her to her unwavering melodic devotion, EDM is her home sweet home, which matches her vibrant personality and bold energy to a T.
What draws her to the genre of EDM is it’s universal love and devoid of age discernment; whether you’re fifteen or fifty—everyone must DANCE! Belle Aire possesses the genuine background and innate aptitude (dynamic vocal chops and choreographic eloquence included) to move into this lucrative genre, which is in dire need of some diverse female talent since Ultra Nate, Crystal Waters and The Weather Girls.
Furthermore, Belle Aire’s one-of-a-kind stage persona is a rare commodity, as she draws from the antiquities of Rome—brimming with castles, court men/eunuchs, women robed in elegant body paint, and cascading fluid drops of light… which is also known as “a decadent musical with a free spirit” of sorts. Her unforgettable performances are greatly choreographed with dancer accompaniment. While music will forever be on her mind and in her heart, Belle Aire also loves to dance, sing karaoke, exercise, play pool, bowl, learn new languages, meet new people and discover new restaurants. Being the second oldest sister of four siblings and the daughter of an ever-supportive mother, she cherishes her family time more than anything.
Goal-wise, Belle Aire has various aspirations, including winning a Grammy, being Number 1 on the charts, headlining at huge events like EDC and Concerts overseas, and collaborating with the top EDM DJ’s like Zedd, Diplo, and David Guetta. Being the compassionate soul that she is, Belle Aire also wants to give back to the world and start a foundation for abused women and children. As a strong believer of music being ageless and containing healing abilities for the mind, body and spirit, she knows that each and every one of us are destined for greatness and she wishes to convey this in everything that she does. Belle Aire not only believes in dreams she is “Living Beyond The Dream”.

Indie-pop rock artist SUNSCREEN’s tagline, “SUNSCREEN is a feeling,” captures the essence of his latest release, “MOVE WITH ME.” If it doesn’t lift your spirits, watch the video on his YouTube channel, and try again in five minutes—if you’re still unmoved, see a doctor.“My songs elicit feelings,” he says. “‘MOVE WITH ME’ is a wedding and party anthem about dancing with your partner.”The upbeat track is featured in a video showcasing an extended family performing a choreographed dance, embodying joy and togetherness.“MOVE WITH ME” opens SUNSCREEN’s debut album, EAT SUNSCREEN, which he describes as a burst of happiness. The title reflects his intent to bring smiles and energy. He crafted the album over ten months, focusing on the small joys in life, from love to nature.His previous EP, SMILE, YOU’RE ON CAMERA!, explored themes of romance, inspired by his wife. Now, EAT SUNSCREEN continues that celebration of love and life’s little pleasures.While he has released several singles, each song represents a unique joy—sometimes with deeper meanings. For instance, one track subtly nods to his dog.Having launched SUNSCREEN last year, he’s excited to connect with his audience and share positivity through his music. “I want to spread goodness and remind people that life is beautiful,” he concludes.

Australian artist James Atlas celebrates and satirizes shopping culture in his latest synth-pop single, “Retail Therapy.” The track, inspired by his experience at the Dubai Mall, explores his shopping addiction with playful lyrics and an upbeat dance sound.“It's about laughing at my shopping habits while enjoying them,” Atlas explains. The catchy refrain questions fulfillment and embraces consumerism:“How do I fill this void inside of me? / Oh, I know… Take it all home with me.”“Retail Therapy” marks a shift in Atlas’s style from acoustic roots to a more experimental electro-pop sound, featuring synths, ’80s-inspired drums, and humorous elements like cash register samples.His musical journey began in metal bands and evolved through jazz, leading to his solo acoustic work starting in 2020. He’s now combining pop influences with his love for space, even designing a rocket with a QR code linking to his album, which will be sold at shows.“I want ‘Retail Therapy’ to be everyone’s new shopping anthem,” he shares, looking forward to future projects and new musical directions.

With a message of brotherhood, sisterhood and faith — gospel delivered at high speed in a joyful fusion of pop, funk, R&B, Motown and dance — The Stewarts, brothers Del and Garry K., are back with “Stand.”
Joy is a hallmark of all their music.
“‘Stand’ is a good-message song for the world, for brothers and sisters to come together, to show love to one another,” said Garry. “No more hatred. Show love. Pick up your brothers and sisters when they fall down. Pick them up.”
“In my personal opinion,” said Del, “‘Stand’ will generate hopefully more conversation about coming together, about treating people fairly, standing up for each other — brothers and sisters coming together.”
“And stand up for your faith,” added Garry.
Show the love of ChristIf you have the choice of colors, do you love one & hate the othersWe’re all sisters and brothers — show love, show love,Show love to each other, oh stand, stand up for each other“We were going with the drum beat initially, and the words just came to us,” said Dell. “We were ping-ponging the words back and forth because we knew people needed to hear a positive-message song about brotherly love and sisterly love.”
On the mix of music, Del said, “Garry and I, we sat down and we went back to our roots. We went back to the ’70s.”The clavinet sound comes from Stevie Wonder, and others come from the Dayton, Ohio, group Slave from their song “Slide.”
“We were listening to their production, and we incorporated that as well as the Stevie Wonder production into our song,” said Del.
The Stewarts, who have been writing and performing since the ’70s, were opening a new phase of their career back in 2020, getting ready to move out into the world with their music. That was when “Stand” was written, but they put it on hold because two other songs, “His Door Is Open” followed by “Faith,” took off, reaching the top of the Upcoming charts, Nos. 1 and 2 respectively.About the time they were ready to push out “Stand,” Covid hit. The virus took down Del and Garry at different times.It threw us behind,” said Garry.
“But also we know that God is good, and once we started feeling better, we started putting things together,” said Del. “We said, ‘Hey, let’s get back on our feet and rock and roll.’”
“Sometimes, when you experience setbacks,” he said, “it also makes you stronger when you come back, because God is good all the time, and when you fall, you gotta get up and continue to try.”The brothers come from a musical family. Johnny Hodges, who played sax for Duke Ellington, was a cousin. Their mother, Corinne, sang gospel with Sam Cooke. Del and Garry were introduced to Motown’s Howard Davis by another cousin, Luther Bond of Luther Bond and the Emeralds. Their faith infuses their music. R&B, rock, funk, pop and Motown help propel the gospel of The Stewarts. Joyous worship accompanies the messages in their songs, messages indicated in the titles: “Stand,” “His Door Is Open,” “The Truth,” “Walk With Me Jesus,” “Battle of Survival,” “Family Affair.”
They are working on other songs, including an EP, but for now the focus is on promoting “Stand” because, said Del, “the world needs to see the video and listen to the lyrics, and, hopefully, we can captivate a different type of audience.”
“This is a song for everyone, from the young to the old,” said Garry. “You can be 8 years old and get something from this song.”
“We want the listener to enjoy the song. The beat hopefully would capture the attention, but the lyrics would also capture the attention as well, because we were writing the song so that it’s uplifting,” said Del.

Ana Vilhete has a London business with offices in London, the Netherlands, the United States and, most recently, South Africa.
Alium Consultancy, which Ana founded in London in 2020, now grosses more than £10 million a year — roughly $13.4 million. She also has a London law firm with seven attorneys working under her. She is an entrepreneur, investor, a volunteer and an inspirational speaker. And now, she is bringing her business and her story to America.
In her mid-30s, she is by any measure a success, and her story begins with virtually nothing in an inner-city slum in Luanda, Angola. She was born in the middle of that country’s 27-year civil war. She lived without hot water until she was 13. She is dyslexic.
So, when she says the heart of her message as an inspirational speaker is, “If I can do it, anyone can do it,” she has the credentials.
“I think I have a great story to share of resilience and tenacity,” she said, “and I want to share my story, to inspire people. If I am able to be an inspiration to someone, I would love that. That is the legacy I want to leave behind.”
The bare-bones outline of her personal story goes from Angola to another inner-city slum in Lisbon, Portugal, when she was 4. She speaks Portuguese because for a couple of centuries Angola was a Portuguese colony and it became a necessary language for the native peoples.
That move resulted from a bullet. One night when the shooting was particularly bad, her mother took her into her bed and in the morning found a spent bullet in Ana’s cot.
From Lisbon, her story goes to London at age 16. Ana herself initiated that move.
“It was October 2003. I went home one day and I told my mom I wanted to leave Portugal. I didn’t think that I was going to be able to achieve any of my goals. I didn’t know what my goals were, but I didn’t think I was going to become the person I needed to be there, and I didn’t know who I wanted to be, but I just felt limited.”
All the girls she knew in Lisbon, her friends, were “getting ready to get pregnant, and I wanted more.”
London at first was little better. Her parents were in poverty-level janitorial work, and family members helped, but housing was a constant concern. A year in they became homeless until her father persuaded a friend to take them in for a few months until they could save enough for rent.
She learned English, she completed her equivalent to A-levels, roughly comparable to American high school, and went to college, with the help of student loans, to study law and criminology. She didn’t know if she wanted to be a lawyer and took a year off — to work in a law firm.
“I didn’t enjoy working with lawyers, but at the end of that I had loads of friends that were lawyers. So, I decided to go to law school.”
She finished law school, going part time. She graduated, then worked for various companies, big and small, a year, two years at a time, and in a small business in the staffing industry, what is called in the United States job placement, she learned the operation and business side of that industry.
In 2020, when she founded Alium Consultancy, she fulfilled another lifelong desire — to own her own business.
Alium places people in positions in the health, data and technology industries with a focus on empowering success through diversity in the workforce.
She insists that she is nothing special.
“Coming from where I came from, if I can do it, anybody can do it. Seriously, I’m not particularly smart, and I found out in law school that I’m dyslexic. It was tough — ‘I need to pass this exam. Why is this subject not going in?’ — and so I think if I can do it, anyone can.”You don’t always have to know what your calling is. You just have to have the tenacity to search for it, grab what’s available and continue to search. You try this and you try that. Be willing to try new things. Be willing to spot an opportunity. Be alert to your environment, think about new ideas and be prepared to fail, because I failed a lot.”
Be relentless, she says. Listen to your instincts, keep looking for the thing you might enjoy “waking up to,” and be resilient.
“Life is tough. It is what it is. There’s nothing you can do about it.”“Failure,” she says, “might not be your fault, but it is certainly your responsibility to keep going.”She delivers her message in Great Britain, in Portugal and other places. She tells her story in schools and colleges and is on television as a guest invited to share her opinions on various subjects.
America is next, both for Alium Consultancy with its focus on filling positions and promoting diversity in the workforce, and as a speaker with an inspiring story to tell.
“I can really demonstrate, like I said, that if I can do it, anyone can do it. I’ve got the credibility to back it up.”
