POWER ENTERTAINMENT

An Atlanta based company, originating in Saginaw, Michigan, has been in business for over 15 years. Founder and entrepreneur, Leroy McMath, had a vision and interest in the music industry and launched his idea in 1986 by way of a progressive dance club called “The Scene”. The club garnered a statewide reputation as a starting ground for rising talent. When the group “Ready for the World” premiered in McMath’s club, his innate talent as promoter and producer surfaced. McMath invested his personal savings and took the young group under his wing. The talented R&B and Rap artist surrounding him led the way to McMath finding Rolls Voice Records and signing artists. The roster included: MC Breed, DFC, Gangsta Pat, and the S’Kool Girlz.

This early label grew into POWER ENTERTAINMENT and McMath entered into a distribution deal with Atlanta based Ichiban Records. Through Ichiban, Power launched McBreed’s first hit, “Ain’t No Future in Yo’ Frontin”, making Breed a star and selling 1,000,000 copies of what is now a rap classic. Power’s roster expanded with the addition of Spice-1 on Power/Triad Records. The artist was subsequently signed to Jive Records, and released three Gold recordings in succession. Power’s reputation continued to grow in status now as an independent watched by the majors. The company began a label deal with Assault/Atlantic Records and issued the debut recording by DFC. The album met with impressive success, selling over 400,000 copies and climbing to #7 on the Billboard R&B Album Chart. The Label boasted a diverse roster of Rap and R&B artist including veteran rapper MC Breed, and R&B Diva Cherrelle. In the company’s history, POWER ENTERTAINMENT’S artists have graced the Billboard charts and have collectively sold millions of records.

In 1997, the hit single “Da Dip” by Freak Nasty sold more than a million copies, was nominated for Best dance Video by MTV, and nominated Billboard’s Top Singles chart for 56 weeks. This huge chart and sales success helped placed POWER ENTERTAINMENT among the top independent labels.

As an independent, POWER ENTERTAINMENT continued to release successful recordings. In addition to the smash hit “Da Dip” by Freak nasty, McMath had success with new music by multi-million seller 12 Gauge (Dunkie Butt), albums by Hard Boyz and launched new careers for Jake the Flake and Ghetto Mafia.

POWER ENTERTAINMENT/POWER FLIMWORKS, LLC ventured into the movie field and released such movies as: “Dollar” starring rapper MC Breed, newcomer Shannon Greer and comedian/radio personality, Ryan Cameron and comedian, BruceBruce, “Deep in the Game”, and Rap-The Movie”. “Dollar” shipped over 10,000 in video with no DVD release to rental and retail outlets. McMath continues to keep a hand in several different projects and has been involved with such films as: “Fled”, “Booty Call”, and “Walter”, a weekly series that aired on the Fox Network and soon to be release “THE GAME”.

McMath has quietly earned his stripes, often as a behind the scenes mastermind in support of the talent he recognizes. He reveals his story in the soon-to-be released book, “The Music Game”. In a greedy, money-driven, double-crossing business, McMath exposes the rites of passage necessary to survive in the entertainment industry. He shares both his mistakes and victories ~ it’s a wealth of information for any newcomer to the business.
