Artist Of The Week - Michelle Chamuel

     Finally, the madness has subsided here. I get to write my first official blog since my hiatus these past few weeks. Thank you to those of you supporting the new nail polish line 'Playlist Polish' (see last blog for more information). But more importantly, a MASSIVE THANK YOU to those of you reading and supporting this blog. The love and support that is shown is truly appreciated. Thank you. ~Christina Peace


     Now, to why you came here. I am so excited to be doing this blog. I saved it for this week because I wanted to make sure I had the time to focus and really write about Michelle Chamuel. Like most of you, I heard about Michelle once she auditioned for NBC's The Voice. She appeared in the third episode of season four singing Katy Perry's 'I Kissed A Girl'. Her performance grabbed the attention of judges Adam, Shakira and Usher. Ultimately Michelle went with team Usher.
     Michelle had auditioned for The Voice before, but this was the first time she made it to the blind auditions. Prior to The Voice she was doing music as a solo artist and went by the name The Reverb Junkie. She went on to join a band by the name of My Dear Disco which was later changed to Ella Riot. Here is the music I found that she released prior to The Voice.

Dance Think (2009):

 (Is this also 'My Dear Disco' that was released in 2007? I couldn't find any releases from that year)

(This may not be all the albums or EP's Michelle has released, but this is what I found doing my research. If you have any more links please leave them in the comments below. I would love to have them and would gladly add them to the blog.)

     During her time on The Voice, Michelle captivated viewers everywhere. She delivered an entertaining and incredible performance every time she took to the stage. From her audition singing 'I Kissed A Girl' to 'Time After Time' which she dedicated to her coach Usher; Michelle gave performances that left viewers in awe and wanting wanting more. I was sad to see that she didn't win The Voice, but she still won in other ways. She opened so many peoples eyes and minds as to what it means to be an entertainer. You don't have to fit some mold with your look or sound. It's okay to be your self and to be different. Think outside the box and make moves that others aren't. It works well for her and she has gained thousands if not millions of adoring fans. 

     Michelle is a rare find in the music industry, meaning that she's not just beautiful on the outside, but she's beautiful on the inside as well. Then there's her voice, she's can go from being soulful and elegant to raw and edgy in the same song. Her range blows my mind and I can't wait to see what she puts out next. I know I will have it on repeat for at least a week! Like the rest of her fans, I'm waiting for a tour and especially for one or more of the tour dates to be in Asheville, NC! (Hint, Hint!!) I have faith that she will have success in all she does and I know the upcoming music will be great. 

     I thought I would post some songs and videos below of some of my favorites from Michelle. There are also links further down the page so make sure you check them out as well. Dance, vibe out and just enjoy the following! ~Christina Peace

Where I've Been

     So I have been gone for two weeks trying to get my new nail polish line off the ground. I started Playlist Polish with my sister recently and we have been hiding out mixing polishes. We finally launched yesterday and it seems to be going well. I thought I would share some of the pictures with you all and put up links below.
     For those of you that don't know, I love nail polish and music! My sister Stacy is the same way, so we decided to combine the two. I came up with the name Playlist Polish because the polish is based off the music in my playlist. Something you will also so notice is that our polishes have glitter in them. I like using glitter because I don't always have time to do nail art and also because it adds a beautiful sparkle or funky edge to the polish. For more information or requests email us at PlaylistPolish@gmail.com

     A friend of ours also has a nail polish line called 'A Study In Polish'. You guys should also check her line out for more great polishes. She has great colors and prices! I currently have 221B, it makes for a beautiful top coat or just a clear glitter to wear on clean nails. I don't have the camera or I would do my own swatches, but for now here a few from her site.

Entertainer Of The Week - Khleo Thomas

So I decided to go with Entertainer of the Week again because like my last post it seemed more fitting. So yeah, enjoy!

"Look me in my eyes and tell me that you don't care.." ~Khleo Thomas

TEAM KHLEO     SLICK LIVING

     Okay so by now most of you have heard of Khleo Thomas. If you haven't, let me catch you up to speed. He is widely known for his role in the movie "Holes" released in 2003 as Hector "Zero" Zeroni. He has since been in several other movies like Roll Bounce, Walking Tall and Hurricane Season alongside Bow Wow, Forest Whitaker and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Thomas didn't stop at movies though, he has also made appearances in several T.V. shows like The Bernie Mac Show, CSI, House, 90210, Sons of Anarchy and Bones just to name a few.
     Acting wasn't the only thing this young star had planned. While filming the movie Holes he wrote a song for the film "Dig It" which was featured in the film and on the movies sound track. He continued on with his music and began performing across the country with Bow Wow, Sean Kingston and Soulja Boy. Thomas has also been a part of several nation-wide tours like "2003's Disney Jingle Jam" and "Scream IV Tour". He even landed a spot opening for Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube on "How The West Was One" tour. Along with doing his own promotional tour, Thomas has performed at SXSW two years in a row (2012 & 2013).
     Khleo began to release his own music in 2009 building up an online buzz gaining fans left and right. He dropped his first mixtape "The World Is A Cartoon" back in January of 2010 leaving Team Khleo hooked. His next mixtape "The Next Episode" was release exactly a year later on January 11, 2011 followed by his third mixtape "Slick Living" which was released in December of 2011. Prior to the release of his third mixtape, Khleo announced in August of 2011 that he signed with Executive Dream Music. His third mixtape inspired his Slick Living apparel and is Team Khleo's mantra. Khleo's fourth and latest mixtape was a collaboration with label mate Chris Batson entitled "After Everything Fades" and was released in November of 2012. He also has two songs on iTunes "Lights Out" and "So Many Girls", "So Many Girls" made it on 106 & Park and MTV Jams in early 2013. Khleo's mixtapes have sparked some incredible collaborations with artists like Bow Wow, Soulja Boy, Tay F 3rd, G Austin, YG, Indigo Charlie, Chris Batson and Sofia Reyes to name a few. Khleo has continued to deliver putting out songs like "Lord Have Mercy", "She Know What She Doin", "Draya", "Do Me Now" and his most recent release "Karina". Khleo is also said to be releasing a follow up mixtape to "After Everything Fades" with Chris Batson entitled "After Everything Fades 2".

     With his dedication to his craft and his fans, Khleo is an unstoppable force in the entertainment business. I first seen him in 'Holes' and have continued to support ever since. Seeing his dedication and hard work paying off is such an inspiration to his fans, myself and so many others. Team Khleo continues supporting him and is waiting for him to headline his own tour. As a long time fan I can't wait to see what other projects Khleo will be involved in, whether it's acting or his music. I wish him nothing but success and can't wait to his growth in the coming years. 

I hope everyone enjoyed this weeks blog. Team Khleo and Khleo, be on the look out for something awesome I will be announcing soon! You won't want to miss this!

     Okay, enough from me. Enjoy the videos and links I've put below. These are some of my favorite songs he's put out over the years and make sure to check out his mixtapes, I've included links to all of them below. Thank you for reading! ~Christina Peace
