Natalie’s aim is to deliver every message with transparency and truth. She has the gift of reaching young women by telling her story withholding nothing back.

Her platform is driven by the word of God coupled with her unique story. Book Natalie today to start making a change in the young women of your community!

Gospel Artist Susan Charli was on the Tamika Hall Radio Show to discuss her single, "Lead Me."ABOUT SUSANBorn in Spanish Town, Jamaica, Susan Charli Small migrated to the United States of America at the age of 4 where she began attending The Church of Jesus Christ. Raised in church by her beloved grandmother, Yvonne Minnott, Susan was baptized at the tender age of 10 years old. In 1992, she became a member of True United Church of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania under the leadership of Pastor Shawn D. Bartley where she would spend her childhood and teenage years being divinely groomed for ministry. For many years, Susan served faithfully as Youth Ministry Leader and Worship Leader and by studying to show herself approved, was elevated to Evangelist in 2003 and again to Minister in 2012 and has continued flourishing in ministry. ​Susan has had the opportunity to facilitate numerous workshops and conferences throughout the tri-state area. Additionally, she has served as worship leader for well known ministries in Philadelphia such as The First Baptist of Oakeola, Church of Christian Compassion, Holy Temple of Deliverance, Acts of Random Kindness Christian Center, along with many others. In the process of leading others in worship over the years, the Lord laid it upon Susan's heart to pen her own melody to Him - and along with composer and producers, Keran Sabir and Shawn Bartley, she wrote a song called "Lead Me", which she released in May 2018. This anthem of worship is one of many to come from the heart of this worshiper. ABOUT THE SINGLELead Me, the debut single by Susan Charli, is a poetic symphony of worship. Revealed in the lyrics are the heart and soul of a passionate worshipper and prolific worship leader. Susan Charli withholds nothing; she is a poured-out vessel, whose purpose is evident as you become engulfed in this worship experience.Lead Me draws you into an intimate conversation with God. The composition exudes both longing and rejoicing. It pulls you into His presence, and into a posture of“Yes.”You will find yourself in a place where fears yield, doubts subside and hope rises as you surrender to His will. This is not just another song; it is the heart-song of every believer who wants more of God. Lead Me is Abba's will for you, set to rhythm, calling you to trust where He is leading. It is a defining moment for all worshipers, and will become your anthem as you yield your yes to Him.For more info visit: SUSANCHARLI.COMTo contact email: [email protected]

Joyell Johnson of Harp & Sword Co. appeared on the Tamika Hall Radio Show.ABOUT JOYELL:Joyell is a racial and gender justice strategist, educator, and restorative justice practitioner. Her professional background is in education, reproductive justice, international civil and human rights law, race and equity, transitional justice, community outreach, and reconciliation. She has worked with the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, UN Special Tribunal for Lebanon, government agencies, nonprofits, and public schools in Baltimore, Eastern Shore, Boston, and abroad. Joyell combines her eight years of experience in education, ten years in nonprofit organizations, and seven years of social justice advocacy to create harp + sword, which focuses on bringing equitable change and joy in tandem by using restorative justice cross-generationally. Additionally, Joyell currently serves as a board member for Community Law in Action and member of Circle of Restorative Initiatives for Maryland.Joyell received her B.A. in Black Studies from Washington College and her J.D. from New England Law | Boston. She utilizes her legal and public interest skills to address the intersections of race/ethnicity, equity, gender, incarceration, and health.ABOUT HARP & SWORD CO: www.harpandsword.coAfter working in education for seven years, the nonprofit sector for nearly ten years, traveling and working in twelve countries (and counting), we noticed a common narrative -- we live as individuals rather than community members by merely existing together instead of living together. This separation can especially be seen inter-generationally and across racial lines. For women and girls, the absence of intentional spaces for our identities and experiences to be fully embraced is far too prevalent. And so, harp + sword began. By focusing on the marginalization of women and girls of color, we tackled all related forms of marginalization impacting various underrepresented groups. In addition to addressing institutional and systemic issues, harp + sword curates joy for women and girls to show up as their whole selves. harp + sword is partially inspired by Zora Neale Hurston, a pioneer in racial and gender dialogue, folklore, and culture during the Harlem Renaissance. Hurston chose to hold space for herself in a world that would not return the favor.Connect with us about bringing a training, consultation, or workshop to your area!

Interview with Indie Artist and Worship Leader, Jide Adeoye from Canada! Originally aired on iWorship96FM Radio

Saturday I had the opportunity to minster in Chester, PA at the Living Waters Church Back to School Event. Pastor Michael Heath is a cool dude...he's a rapper and everything, lol! It was a blessed event.With all the success and amazing worship, I ended up sick from heat exhaustion and I am completely at fault. I did NOT prepare to minister in the heat on Saturday and in making mental notes about how to do better the next time, I created a list of 10 ways to make your next outside ministry engagement a success.

In this episode we talk to Bathsheba Smithen about music, ministry, and how to create a music video on a budget!-------Bathsheba Smithen, a woman who Dr. Nikki Giovanni calls “a first-rate thinker.” Her testimony alone makes this multi-talented woman an amazement. Born to a single mother (who ultimately abandoned her and her siblings) and a father who was a married pastor, she could have easily been a statistic. Raised in the projects and at times struggling with homelessness, it’s the grace of God that clearly covered this gifted woman.In this episode Bathsheba shares:Importance of developing a Mission Statement as an artistBathsheba gives a definition of who she is, A Conduit of ChangeDiscovering her identityHealing through poetryFirst book, "Who Cares what You Think? So What you Think?"How discovering who she was as a person shaped her as an artistExperiencing homelessness, depression, and abandonment by her parents as a teen, and raising two teenage boys.Book, "What Happens to Them When You Change?"The power of forgivenessOrganization, Cagefree Voices"Your greatest weakness is your greatness strength"New single, "Need to be Free"Upcoming single, "Insanity"Process of writing poetry, spoken word, and songsVideo Let's get is rockinImportance of connecting with other creative peopleImportance of barteringThe power eachBeing open to listen to other people

As an artist, there is a certain joy that comes with making something from scratch and calling it your own. I mean, to see the creation and fulfillment of something that started off in your mind is an amazing feeling.While it is always a point to make original music for the masses, there are times that you want to give your take to classic hit songs. Because we live in a world where anything is possible, you have the liberty to record a cover song and to legally make money from it.This podcast will review some elements to understand this process better.For full shownotes log onto: http://tamikahall.com/coversongs

When you are an artist, there is nothing quite like being in your zone and making music that speaks to your soul. As songwriters, God has given us a unique gift of being able to share His Word with melody. While it is clear that the creative aspect of making art is the focus of most artists, there is another side that they may not pay much attention to all the time – the business aspect. Split Sheets are essential if you write a song with another person(s). This episode deals with the business of split sheets.

Last week, I posted a short video and post about How to Copyright Your Music. It has received a great deal of attention and much of that was because I didn't talk about the, "Poor Man's Copyright." I was flooded with messages about how mailing one's music and not opening the envelope is an acceptable method of copyright. So this post is going to explore this method and why I believe it is best to invest in your music and copyright the full proof way.For the full show notes log onto: http://tamikahall.com/2015/03/why-mailing-your-music-isnt-a-good-way-to-copyright/

Jody Thomae is the author of "God's Creative Gift--Unleashing the Artist in You." Published by Wipf & Stock Publishers, it includes Bible studies to nurture the creative spirit within. It is available online through various outlets, including Amazon and in Kindle format. It is her desire to portray the message of Christ's desperate and unfailing love for His people to help sustain the hearts of the broken and weary. She is particularly interested in the way in which God uses the arts to bring formational development and healing to His people. Life scriptures include Psalm 27; Isaiah 50:4-7; and Zephaniah 3:14-17In this Episode Jody Discusses:-Unique ministry of leading worship through song, dance, drama, and as a musician-How to know when it is God speaking versus our own voice telling us what to do-Learning to let go and allow God to build up something else-How to handle the "wilderness" experience when God shifts our ministry to another place and we are in waiting.-New book, "God's Creative Gift: Unleashing the Artist in You"-God's Creative Gift as a tool for Bible study for the Worship Artist in any area (i.e. Worship Leader, Photographer, Singer, Dancer, Actor, etc).-How to release God's creative Gift in our lives to take our worship to the next level

It is imperative that Worship leaders take care of their voice. The position can be extremely demanding depending on the number of services one has to lead on a given Sunday or even through the week. Many vocal coaches suggest that singers should stay away from cigarette smoke, coughing and clearing your throat, and excessive and loud talking. There are also several foods that you should shy away from before you get ready to minister. This podcast will give you insight into the different foods you should avoid before you sing.For full show notes log onto: http://www.tamikahall.com

As songwriters, recording artists, etc. copyrighting our music is one of those essential things that get ignored. If you’re anything like me, I wish I could just live in the creative space and never have to worry about legalities. Unfortunately, people like to steal (yep…i’m that blunt kind of chic), so copyrighting your work is necessary. This video gives a quick tutorial on the fees, timeline, and how to copyright your songs.

She is a graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing. Sharvette is the owner of Mitchell Productions, LLC, a web design and social media coaching firm.In this Episode Sharvette Shares Info on:-Becoming an international radio sensation-The moment she realized she was making a global impact with her voice-Understanding when working with media is necessary-The importance of working with media-What it means to be attractive to media-Whether or not an artist should submit a selfie-Importance of professional headshots-How to work with a photographer on a budget-Importance of having a professional introduction or bio-Importance of using social media consistently-Why a website is so important

May I be transparent with you? Creating radio-ready/sellable music is not cheap. I’ll be honest it is downright expensive! There’s the cost of buying a track or paying musicians to go into the studio. There is studio time, mix and mastering, vocal lessons to prepare, the list goes on and on sometimes. So once the music is ready for the world to hear, the biggest question is, “How do I get my music into the earbuds of potential fans?” and the next question is, “How do I recoup the money I put out?” Listen I understand that our music is our ministry, but there is definitely a business side to the ministry.When I released my very first single, “Here I Am,” April 2014, I was torn between putting my music on Soundcloud or Spotify. The reason being that both of these platforms allow the music to be heard for free. So what’s in it for the artist? Here’s the quick scoop on each site.For Full Show Notes log onto: http://tamikahall.com/2015/02/put-music-spotify-soundcloud/

There are seven things an artists should never include on their cover art. I examine those things in this episode of the Tamika Hall Radio Show. For full show notes log onto: http://tamikahall.com/2015/01/what-recording-artists-should-know-about-cover-art/First let’s examine why your cover art is even important:The “Face” of your Music: Your music tells a unique story that only you can tell. Your cover art is a visual extension of what people will hear. Think about it, Christmas projects always have a theme of the holiday on the cover.Used for Digital Distribution: If you are planning to make your music available Tamika Hall Show Podcast Art through outlets like iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Tunecore, CD Baby, etc. Cover Art is a requirement.Used for Radio Distribution: Do you want your music heard on the radio? Radio stations want to see the unique cover art associated with your music. Internet radio uses the cover art when they streamSo now that you know why the Cover Art is important here are seven things your Cover Art should NOT include:Title of a project that is different from what is being released. If you are only releasing a single, the title of the single should be on the cover even if your single is going to be part of a full project later.Contact Information such as Website URL’s, Email, Booking Information, Social Media Contacts, should not be on the cover of your music. Remember you are selling the MUSIC.Cost- the price of your project should never be printed on your cover artStore Logos like Amazon, iTunes, etc. They are not endorsing your workWords that date your project like, “Newest Release,” “Latest Single,” should not be used.An artist name that is different from the name you used in the release information. Not sure how else to say this, if you list yourself as the artist for places like iTunes, then make sure you use that name on your cover art. Pictures and Names of People who are not actually on the project should not be used. Let’s say you covered a song by a well-known artist, you cannot use their face and name on your project.When you ready to create your Cover Art keep this in mind:Great Designs Are Paramount- Don’t utilize the online creation tools by places like Tunecore because everyone uses them. You want your cover art to be uniqueBlurry Photos from your phone are a hot mess, lol! Use high quality photos on your cover art.Interesting but readable font is the icing on the musical cake. Times New Roman is wonderful font that is easily read, but it isn’t interesting. If you wanted to use it, I would use it on the back of your cover art (if you are selling physical CD’s). Fonts like Edwardian Script are pretty but they are very difficult to read, so find something that is both appealing and readable.When your cover art is all created in its musical glory, make sure it is sized to 1600 x 1600 pixels. Digital stores require this size.

With all of the Social Media Platforms available to use it can be overwhelming to determine which platform will work best for your ministry. In this post you will get an overview of what each platform is and how it works, from there you can decide which will work best for your ministry. While many ministries are still a little leary about utilizing social media, a great deal of ministry goes forth on the internet. Matthew 28:19 teaches us to go into all the world and preach the Gospel. The beauty of leveraging social media is that we can impact people all around the world for FREE.
