POWERMOVES EXTENDS A HAND TO ROYALTY LIFE RECORDS! Powermoves to help Albuquerque label Royalty Life Records and CEO Humble reach a national audience
Dombeatz kept telling Powermoves CEO Eric Martinez about Royalty Life Records and it’s CEO Humble. Finally Eric took it upon himself to meet this vibrant young music mogul which led to a 6 hour talk about music, industry standards on a national level and artists on each others roster. “I honestly did not know what to expect of him based on what I had heard in the streets, but Humble is probably one of the nicest and most grateful people I have ever met here in Albuquerque. No ego, no nonsense about being something he is not in music, his labels staff is extremely professional and both of his artists are lyrically 2 of the nicest I’ve heard from here!” says PME CEO Eric Martinez. Royalty Life is definitely a no nonsense team and based on its track record for cd sales one of the only crews that can actually say they run the streets. With over 30,000 units sold it’s hard to argue. These guys followed Major Moves’ footsteps when it came to street hustle; Humble said he had heard of Powermoves when he first came to New Mexico and knew that before he approached PME, he would have to get his game right, that meeting took 3 years. “I didn’t want to come empty handed to someone like Eric, I needed some battle scars to show him that I respect what he has done for the NM Music scene on a national level. When I heard Eric talk to Def Jams Lenny S. personally, I freaked out! Lenny is someone so deep in the game and helped the careers of so many big names like Jay Z, Usher, Outkast and too many more to even name and he was talking to Eric like they been boys for years! I knew then Eric was for real, of course I heard the haters about Powermoves and Eric, but I did my own research and due diligence on Eric. This guy is asked to speak on panels all over the country! With some of the biggest names in music, like Shakir Stewart, Kevin Liles, Damon Dash! Come on! How much more proof do you need? Who else from this state much less this region can say that? Just look what he has done with Jmar’s career and the artists on his labels roster. Enough said.” says Humble.
