DEBUT ALBUM "THE GIFT" COMING EARLY 2007!!!
Mr. Jones, Sing-Sing, Big Mike, & KC, the voices of AHMIR, write and arrange original music that provides the soundtrack to your life. Although the group is not signed to a major label, or the recipient of major funding, AHMIR, through great music, sheer talent, perseverance and hard work, saw their hit single "Welcome To My Party" make its debut in Billboard's Top 10 R&B/Hip Hop Singles Sales Chart on April 8, 2006 after only a week in stores nationwide and have charted for 10 consecutive weeks in the top 10.
So far in 2006, AHMIR has won awards for Best R&B Group at the New England Urban Music Awards, Overall Winner for the Worcester Idol Competition, First Place at the Urban Explosion Talent Competition in NYC and Best Male R&B Group or Duo at the 4th Annual Underground Music Awards held at B.B. Kings in NYC. MOST RECENTLY AHMIR won the "We Hear The Future" Showcase and Competition at the Billboard 2006 R&B Hip Hop Conference in Atlanta and was awarded a Featured Article in Billboard magazine (issue dated October 14, 2006)!!
On MYSPACE (myspace.com/ahmirmusic), in just over 10 months they have amassed over 30,000 total friends, 200,000 total plays, and receive 1,500+ plays per day.
AHMIR is a truly unique and inspiring group that brings urban and classic R&B sounds together to reflect the wide range of feelings and emotions we all experience. Their soulful rhythms help soothe away life's difficult moments. AHMIR's tearful ballads make you feel how very special it is to love someone. And when you just want to let yourself go and raise the roof, their catchy club anthems make you want to dance like there's no tomorrow. So no matter where life takes you, AHMIR will be with you every step of the way.
From the streets of New York City, Philadelphia, Upstate New York and Boston, these four gentlemen have lives rich with experience. Their distinctive sound mixes classical training from the prestigious Boys Choir of Harlem and instinctual training from local church choirs, to become a unified and powerful force that fully engages, provokes and captivates audiences.
First formed in 2002, AHMIR has been featured on Boston's HOT 97.7 WILD and has opened for major recording artists John Legend, 112, Jagged Edge, Kem, Carl Thomas, Boyz II Men, After 7, Keith Sweat, Force MD's, Misteeq, Nivea and Jaheim.
AHMIR is managed by Michael J. Cheung, Esq., president of Chino World Management, Inc. For more information, visit www.ahmirmusic.com. or contact 917-841-3588.
