Fast forward twelve years, the Kingston born songjay continues to take giant strides toward super stardom. QQ recently made headlines in publications XXL, Fader, The Source and Thisis50.com when he launched his 2015 college tour titledJACK HAMMER. The tour was named after his 2014 hit single featured on VP Records’ Reggae compilation album Reggae Gold 2014. The college tour, already in full swing, started March 13th at New York University. The schedule includes performances at Morrisville University, Northeast University and Oswego University to name a few. During his tour, QQ will debut his latest single ‘Overdose’ which is set for release April 7th . Onstage, He will be accompanied by DJ Joe Young and DJ Star. The tour will end on May 9th at a surprize location in Toronto, Canada. Many in the Reggae community believe the new single ‘Overdose’ will further position QQ as the next great reggae superstar. That said, QQ has long impacted the music industry with his 2006 hit single “Stukie” which dominated the airwaves in over 17 countries. The song sparked one of the hottest reggae dance moves also titled Stukie. The Stukie dance has been emulated by some of Hip-Hop and RnB’s most notable megastars including Missy Elliot and Beyonce. In 2013, QQ showed the world his new song and dance which were both named “One Drop”. During Beyonce’s 2014 On the Run Tour , QQ’s One Drop dance was subtly weaved into her choreography performance. To date, “One Drop” remains an influence in Reggae, Hip-Hop, and RnB music. According to his fans, QQ’s nostalgic musical sound is a mixed of Shaggy with a splash of Buju Banton. His swagger and style is reminiscent of a young Sammy Davis Junior. Although very much original, QQ encompasses the true core of Reggae and good music.

 Imagine a genius technology that can lessen the friction in artists/fans engagement by enabling its users to connect with their favorite artists in real-time—without having to use a smart-phone, tablet, or computer. This new technology is predicted to change how humans communicate altogether, and will most-likely have a positive impact on the music industry, Apple and Google. Right now you’re probably thinking, “What could this genius technology possibly be, and how can it connect fans with artists, without the use of a smart device?”
For several years now, the answers to the above-mentioned questions have been circulating inside the brain of an unlikely tech-mastermind--Walter Thurmond III, a cornerback for the Philadelphia Eagles and Super Bowl XLVIII Champion. Thurmond saw an obvious void and created a nonexistent product concept to fill that technological gap, but he needed the know-how to take his genius idea to the next level. So Thurmond met up with the founder and CEO of Bad Boy Branding, Jay Leopardi, a pop culture/branding expert who specializes in innovative inventions and concept actualization. After meeting with Jay, Walter Thurmond III came to the conclusion that Leopardi, an unrelenting and unapologetic branding tactician, was definitely his Steve Jobs—a knowledgeable connoisseur that could turn his innovative concept into a profitable solution. Shortly afterwards, a partnership was formed, and Leopardi and Thurmond began developing their disruptive and revolutionary technology in secrecy—understandably to protect their intellectual property, which is now in its final stages of development. Thurmond and Leopardi’s new technology is projected to be unveiled in 2016, in the same fashion that the first iPods were unveiled to the world, and this revelation will simultaneously take place at an undisclosed location, somewhere in New York and Los Angeles. A group of Thurmond and Leopardi’s products will be launched—all at once, and the event will be live streamed via a major media outlet. In the meantime, Thurmond and Leopardi are encouraging people to join their NinjaWavcontest/pre-promotion campaign, which is an all inclusive business model, created to encourage people to engage with Thurmond and Leopardi, by helping them pre-unveil their secret technology, while the world waits and sees which lucky person comes close to guessing, “What’s Thurmond and Leopardi’s 2016 genius technology?” For more information about Thurmond and Leopardi, please visit their website at FollowTheWav.com, or follow the NinjaWav Movement on Twitter @thebigwav, and on Instagram and Facebook @followthewav. Thanks for being the change that you wish to see in the world, and always remember that (P) Positive (E) Energy (A) Always (C) Creates (E) Elevation (PEACE).  SUNNY SHINES THROUGH THE DRAMA
