The Future of Music

Ahmir

YouTube sensation and recently signed music group, Ahmir, has managed to take us back to an era where talent did all the work, where emotions were captured in harmonic melodies and lyrics. Armed with talent and YouTube, Ahmir has won the hearts of thousands of fans not to mention the admiration of Miley Cyrus and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus. What stared out as covers to popular songs has evolved into a group of men making a name for themselves from the pages of Worthy to Vibe magazine, everyone is talking about Ahmir and we can’t blame them.

Numbers don’t lie. With a total of 209 videos, an average of 700,000 views a week per video and a grand total of 70 million views, it is safe to say that the odds for success are heavily in Ahmir’s favor. Recently signed to Robbins Entertainment, the group has anything but small hopes for their future. Worthy magazine had the opportunity to sit down and talk with the group members, and we are happy to report that Sing Sing, Mr Jones, Big Mike and KC are just as engaging in conversation as their YouTube videos. We didn’t want to stop asking questions. www.worthyy-magazine.com

“We are never pleased with our current level of success,” Sing Sing said. “We hope that are we still bettering ourselves in the future.” The group’s constant pursuit of betterment is a mentality that translates over into their fan base. The guys have started their own health campaign geared towards inspiring their fans. The campaign consists of the group members sharing pictures with their fans of their physical fitness achievements. The group shares before and after pictures to let their fans know that they can take matters into their own hands when it comes to their health.
