Lionel Ridenour, Director of Malaco Records’ urban division, echoed those positive sentiments.
Q Parker is a gifted vocalist and accomplished songwriter whose career I’ve been involved with since the 90′s when his group 112 was signed to Bad Boy/Arista. I am very excited about the great partnership that we’ve formed between Q’s NeWFAM Entertainment brand and Malaco Records.”
Q is grateful for the kind words.
It’s an amazing feeling to have been in the music business since I was a teenager as part of a hugely successful group like 112, and to now be a grown man making a name for myself as a solo artist in the current R&B climate. Agreeing to a partnership with my NeWFAM Entertainmentbrand and Malaco Records felt right for me. Lionel Ridenour and Tommy Couch, Jr. of Malacoappreciate the direction of my music, and have shown they are committed to making my album ’THE MANual’ a long-term success!”
Parker’s manager, Amber Noble-Garland, who is also the CEO of I For Talent Management, said “From their first listen of his solo album, the team at Malaco Records immediately connected with Q’smusic, understood our vision and expressed a strong desire to be in the Q Parker business.”
