Midi Mafia Turns Focus To Own Label, New Artists
Published: Monday - October 1, 2007

Producer duo, Midi Mafia, are gearing up to launch the careers of their own artists, after lacing platinum hits for the likes of G-Unit, Nelly, Talib Kweli and Jennifer Lopez, among others.

Via their own Family Ties Entertainment label, the team of Bruce Waynne and Dirty Swift plan to drop new releases from several artists on their label in 2008.

They recently teamed with Philadelphia's Hot City Music Group and SRC/Universal to introduce R&B songstress Shiré to the world. Her current mixtape, Baltimore's Daughter, displays her hard-hitting vocals and intimate lyrics. Much like Mary J. Blige and other hip-hop/R&B royalty have done before her, Shiré shares the often-harsh reality of her life with a relatable magnetism. Her full-length debut will drop early in 2008, with Midi Mafia as the driving force behind her sound.

"Shiré is taking R&B music back to real singing, substance and excitement that's been missing for a long time. This is going to be a landmark album," said Swift.

"Shiré will be the blueprint for all female solo artists after her album drops," added Bruce Waynne.

In coming months, Family Ties Entertainment will be releasing a prelude to their full-length album. The "pre-album" entitled Get Connected will familiarize fans with the work of Midi Mafia, while the album Family First will introduce Family Ties' roster of stellar new talent. Following their own projects, the team will launch a flurry of albums for their own artists, along with a solo album for Bruce Waynne entitled Waynne Manor.

Despite personal setbacks in the past year -- a tragic accident for Dirty Swift and a major lawsuit and divorce for Bruce Waynne -- the two men have persevered to stay at the top of their game, continuing to grow their fledgling label and expanding their crafts. Bruce Waynne is excelling in his songwriting, while Dirty Swift continues to utilize the newest technologies in engineering the Midi Mafia sound.

The duo is already working steadily overseas, and are currently working with SSL and Spectrasonics, and plan to build on new relationships.

"Midi Mafia and Family Ties are the realization of our vision, our passion for music," explains Dirty Swift. "We align ourselves with other brands that have shown that same passion for success which we represent."
