Packed with hit-makers, The Ringleader positioned in the spirit
of a WOW or NOW THATS WHAT I CALL MUSIC! Compilation. At the same time,
these songs are compiled in the far more engaging mixtape format. If there were
such a thing as WOW HIP HOP, then THE RINGLEADER would be it. 'We are
establishing a musical source within the industry and culture that appeals to
the younger demographic,' reflects DJ Maj. 'The WOW series has gospel and
inspirational, but there's nothing for kids listening to mainstream urban
radio. We are filling the void in a way that reflects urban and hip-hop culture
from a God perspective and is far more interesting than the standard
compilation format.' In authentic street fashion, THE RINGLEADER spins
together album tracks, new compositions, and remixes into one continuous stream
of positive hip-hop party music. The songs effortlessly flow into the next for
a seamless, ceaseless musical energy. THE RINGLEADER distinguishes
itself from the standard mixtape, however, as certain tracks represent the
deejay as, not just the compiler, but the producer, writer, and emcee as well.
'THE RINGLEADER is more mature musically, lyrically, and in subject matter,'
says DJ Maj, whose driver's license reads Michael Allen. 'I also got back to
one of my first loves, namely, rhyming.'
