Records to launch his new single, “When I Rise.” Harrisburg, PA born Jay L is by no means new to the entertainment scene. As a teenager he sharpened his skills by earning props from local talent shows, and city showcases. Jay L’s big break came when he won 1st place at the world famous “Apollo”. Jay L’s talent was already in evidence by his first appearance at the world famous “Apollo” in 1994. That earned him a showcase with Grammy Award winning singer and songwriter Babyface. Jay L has also graced the stage with some of the best R&B and Rap artists in the industry, including Master P, David Banner, Public Announcement, City High and Case. Previous signage under J-Pat Management allowed him to showcase for other great artists, such as, Usher. A huge favorite with the ladies, Jay L knows how to captivate his crowd and hold them hostage. This was evident at his two extraordinary performances at the famous Apollo Theater in New York where he won over tough Amateur Night audience with his melodic, sensual vocals. As his song, “She’s Wanting More” suggests, his performances always leave his audience wanting more. Jay L’s gifts are evident in more than just his music. This multitalented artist has appeared in such movies as “Any Given Sunday”, with Jamie Fox, Al Pacino, Dennis Quade and LL Cool J and “Random Hearts” with Harrison Ford. His video appearances include, “Heartbreak Hotel”, with such legendary divas as Whitney Houston, Kelly Price and Faith Evans. He’s further pursued his acting career by appearing in the play, “Cousin Earl” with Charles Smith. Jay L has also performed in TV shows, including, Word of Mouth and The Cutting Edge. Along with “When I Rise”, his other single, “Catching of an Eye” will also be hitting Walden Books and Borders bookstores in January 2007 as a compliment to the new book, “Catching of an Eye” by Kimberly Gonzalez. This hot new artist is one to keep an “Eye” on for he is definitely on the “Rise”.






 


 


 








SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITY

 








 

My name is Janice Lavalais, and I am a CEO and publisher of Houston 411 Magazine. I started Houston 411 Magazine online
on July 23, 2007.  The objective of the magazine is to promote positive stories from the people of the community and give affordable advertisement to small business. We believe that the readers/supporters 
should have a magazine where they can VOICE their OPINIONS as well as promote positive and relative articles and messages among America's youth. Houston 411 Magazine is a Magazine that doesn't cater to celebrities. We promote everyday people doing extraordinary things with their lives. We wanted to cater to all readers and relate positive influences to America's youth. We promote upcoming: entrepreneurs, models, artists, positive articles, arising fashion designers, positive business advertisement, health, entertainment, and a section we dedicated just for the youth: Kids Corner. We believe that promoting positive publications will give America's youth another view on life and perhaps change the way they think and influence them to want to do better.
