Bradd Marquis: The Gift of Music (free download)


THE GIFT OF MUSIC:
Happy Holidays
from
BRADD MARQUIS

Bradd Marquis is quickly becoming a name that continues to be repeated when quality male vocalists are mentioned these days. This young crooner oozes with soul, though his versatility enables him to bring the essence of music, pure and simple to any stage he graces. Often compared to Marvin Gaye and Teddy Pendergrass, the raspy-vocalist with a statuesque physique and model-like good looks has a personality that resonates with down home charm. Hailing from a family where music knew no limit, Bradd Marquis is a force to be reckoned with!

He was invited by the mighty SoulBounce team to be part of the Men Love Mary: A Tribute to 'My Life' project and submitted his rendition of 'Never Want to Live Without You' -- critics, and fans alike gave him thumbs up.

As a treat to you for the holidays, Bradd Marquis is offering an EP filled with grown and sexy tunes for all to enjoy, which also includes 'Never Want to Live Without You' == another name to remember: BRADD MARQUIS, a gifted musician, actor and well-rounded talent!

SoulBounce Presents: Men Love Mary - Tribute to 'My Life'



Fifteen years ago Mary J. Blige released My Life, a breakthrough album chronicling her inner struggles while catapulting her to superstardom as the Queen of Hip Hop Soul. In celebration of this milestone, we gathered nine dynamic male artists to record re-imaginings of their favorite My Life songs for Men Love Mary: A Tribute to My Life, a digital EP presented by SoulBounce. The EP is hosted by one of Bad Boy's legendary "Hitmen," Chucky Thompson, who was a key producer on the My Life album. My Life was a pivotal point in Mary's career where her voice shined as a beacon of hope and understanding to men and women all over the world. Men Love Mary: A Tribute to My Life offers a fresh perspective from Eric Roberson, Jesse Boykins III, Slakah the Beatchild, Nino Moschella, Bradd Marquis, TL Cross, Darien, D Maurice, Fave and Siik--a new generation of artists inspired by her sincerity, longevity and artistry. My Life was about Mary's relationship with one man, and now many men have reinterpreted these songs in an effort to pay tribute to an artist who has given us so much of herself. As a culture, we do a great job of paying tribute to our stars posthumously. Men Love Mary: A Tribute to My Life is an opportunity to celebrate our Queen and let her know how much she means to us and to music. This is our chance to honor her and give her flowers while she's still here, and we're sharing the bouquet with her adoring fans. SoulBounce is proud to present to you this labor of love, Men Love Mary: A Tribute to My Life. Download (link) the EP and enjoy these new renditions of some of your favorites from My Life.
