 "Genese Music is a small but growing company. Because of that we didn’t think it would be possible to bring on talent from the New York area. Ron joining us completely dismisses that notion.” Camille Rogers, Director of Marketing.

Paige has been fortunate to witness and participate in a number of large scale artist marketing campaigns. He also understands the direction labels and artists need to be successful in the entertainment industry. His first priority will be dealing with artist currently signed to a Genese Music label and determining how to increase their presence in the market place.

"Before I pour my energy into developing a program for outside artist and labels we plan on taking care of home. For an Indie, Genese Music has a strong roster of artist that cover all genres. I plan on using my resources to truly see what performance avenues are currently available here in New York as well in Los Angeles. Although the Mid-Atlantic’s presence is clearly felt in the Music Industry New York and L.A. are still the mecca.” Ronald Paige, VP of Management-IALS.

This is not the first time these two forces have tried to teamed up.  Ralph Rogers, Genese CEO,  and Jahiti, CEO of Brown Fish have known of each others business for a long time. However the growth of Genese Music During 2007 made this seem like the perfect time for Brown FISH to explore the services being offered through Genese Music’s Independent Aritst and Labels division.

Throughout the lower Mid-Atlantic Brown FISH has created a strong base of faithful followers and Genese has the marketing and the media to push them to the next level.  “What truly we feed each other when there is a meeting of the minds.”  This makes Obia Soul a great match for this Ghetto Conscious rhythmic poetry of the Brown Fish music group.   “When the decision was made to transform our previous company to something with more modern ideals and concepts we never thought it would happen so quickly”, Ralph Rogers CEO of Genese Music.

Baltimore - January 08, 2007 - Genese Music’s primary creative arm has decided to leave the company to pursue his dream of working in the science industry. Wesley Branch, who was the Senior Creative Technician for Genese Music, has decided to leave the entertainment industry to return to his original love of Physics.

"Like myself, a number of us fall into jobs doing things that we are good at. However, those jobs aren’t always what we envisioned ourselves doing for the rest of our lives. Coming out of Delaware State with a degree in Physics I never thought the music industry would be where I ended up. Now I know its time to take a chance on both my career and destiny."
