Neeshan D Hitman Uncut and Raw on Xposed TV with Sarah Bacchus

In the wide sea of so called West Indian artistes, who really uses their platform of entertainment to drive positive messages? D Hitman took his trail blazing high energy performances and metamorphed into a vehicle of positive change. As he sat down for a riveting raw uncut conversation with Sarah Bacchus, host of Xposed TV, it is refreshing to see the evolution of a man who can move the masses with his rum songs and turn around to capture those same masses with a message of restraint, humble humility and respect for women. His daring question of, “who will the child look up to if not us,” is strikingly powerful.

You know all of his songs, you grooved and whittled, whined and grinded on every dancehall, bacchanal, battam house and beach party from New York to Trinidad and all the way to Guyana. When the party needed a little pick up, the DJs turned to D Hitman. When the crowd settled a bit, D Hitman blazed out with his exposed chest and sprinkled fire water. That same man who has collaborated with every name in the business to captivate a worldwide audience is taking a stance on the same material that made him popular.

His philosophy is not about popular lyrics that sells out to masses but rather about material that moves masses in a positive direction. When the soca chutney world dictates that a hit must be about rum or the degradation of women, D Hitman stood up and said no. Striking! Here is an artiste who made his butter with the same rum song, rewind and come again with a different tune. I can imagine his competition and the so called powers to be in the industry shaking in their sandals. Why would this guy turn around and want to stop a good thing? Is it really a good thing? With all the social issues of rum drinking and celebrating the revered spirit in its infinite destruction, it is staggering that someone has not stepped up sooner.

D Hitman is determined to use his influence and wide audience to change the culture of soca chutney music and West Indian culture as a whole. He has taken a bold approach to not record any more rum songs. If audiences followed his “wilder, younger side” and were thrilled, they would embrace his more positive and matured entertainment path. These positive steps have lead to major support for a new charitable foundation. Lead by Christine Khan, this new foundation is focusing efforts to build a Children’s Recreational Center in Berbice, Guyana. Take a view of the entire interview below.

There are many Caribbean entertainment and media outlets scattered across the Diaspora. But not many embrace content with a positive message. Xposed TV, from Stealth Productions takes a stand and consistently deliver high quality technical and positive programs. The common elements here are all positive forward embracing people working together for a greater good. Here is to more artists joining hands with Neeshan D Hitman for a better West Indian Community.

The return of Xposed TV

Did you miss Xposed TV with Sarah Bacchus? The wait is over, they are back online. Known for casting a light on local New York and West Indian issues, this independent TV station has stepped away from mainstream and focus on issues that matter.

Long before there were Facebook Groups and social media, Stealth Productions brought Xposed TV with host Sarah Bacchus. The show broadcasted on Thursdays at 3pm on Ch 34 QPTV & Saturdays at 5pm on Ch 35 QPTV. Producer Neil Anthony Bacchus, created an avenue for local talent to showcase their music.

With the emergence of social media as an integral part of pop culture, Xposed TV reemerged with heavy focus online under Stealth Productions. From a fully professional studio that is equipped for television, with all the bells and whistles that larger studios envy, the show will create content to populate their YouTube and Facebook Pages. These two media outlets will serve to syndicate on other media channels. The focus will still give local artist a larger platform to showcase their talents. A stellar line up is in store.

First to step infront of the camera is long time Queens artist Frank Persico. This artist has dwelled behind the scenes of numerous independent performers and is now ready for his own close up. His musical style takes influences from James Taylor, Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel. This results in notes of folk, rock, alternative and R & B. Frank’s first album, The Reminder (2011), is available on iTunes and CDBaby. The second album, Salutations from Ozone Park, is due summer 2014. Reverbnation, the popular music site will feature Frank Persico on their home page March 18.

Guyanese American Fashion Designer, Sarah Bacchus, is poised and ready to showcase her brand, 34-24-36 during New York's Fashion Week 2014, on Saturday, February 8th at 4pm.

Fashionistas from around the world will descend on one of New York City’s most versatile and sought after event spaces The Metropolitan Pavilion. With a history that dates back to 1896 B. Altman Department Store and spans across the 1927 Art Deco era, this space has morphed into contemporary esthetics while staying true to it’s roots. Being one of the industry's top venues to host Runway shows, especially for Independent Fashion Designers, it is seems like a perfect fit for Sarah Bacchus.

Sarah will showcase 34-24-36 brand’s latest work, The Aurora Collection. An array of bright colors, rich and luxurious textures and a proud 'Made in USA' label will captivate audiences. Her design philosophy 'Season-less wear’, which allows a piece to transcend across the seasons, demonstrates Aurora Collection’s  depth and versatility utilizing Natural Fibers such as Silk and Cotton.

With the countdown clock running, Designer Bacchus is checking and double checking that all garments scheduled to be on the runway are prepped for the show. Complimenting  jewelry and accessories are being selected. Each piece is hand selected and matched with a critical eye. When asked what she's expecting from this show she replied, “Having 34-24-36 shown at this reputable venue, with a larger audience ranging from fashionistas, celebrities, stylists and the list goes on. Making the process of getting here a tremendous one because it's recognized by the Fashion Industry”

Sarah Bacchus of 34-24-36 showcases colorful hues with the newly released Aurora Collection

FOR RELEASE September 30th, 2013
NEWS
34-24-36- For the Perfect Fit:

The Aurora Collection

34-24-36 is pleased to announce the arrival of our 5^th Collection! The Aurora Collection is a large compilation of colorful hues, presently showcased online at, www.34-24-36.com and by Appointment at our:

Queens Showroom

153-28 122^nd Avenue

Jamaica, Queens, NY 11434

The various Collections are now available for purchase on a Retail and Wholesale basis.
After launching in December, Two thousand and Ten (2010), the 34-24-36 name and brand has gained quite a positive reputation. Being the first Guyanese American Fashion Designer to emerge out of the West Indian community has certainly played an important role in the success of the brand. Also, equally important is the foundation on which 34-24-36 was built. We are an All-American brand. All aspects of our business are done within the New York State. The fabric qualities utilized are only natural fibers: Silks, Cottons, blends of Silk and Cotton, Rayon and rarely novelty manmade textures. The choice of qualities we render are based solely on the durability of the pieces, hence, we termed it the ‘Seasonless’ wear. Put these garments on, in every season. Pair with fine, trendy or no jewelry and these pieces will stand out and withstand years of the elements.

Now, the appeal factor for 34-24-36 as per various constituents, whether it’s Facebook friends and acquaintances, our foreign clientele, local boutiques, and our roster of clients, it’s just a small fraction of where we see ourselves in the coming years. While the brand has been attracting the likes of many, even those far and wide, with its avant-garde aesthetics, there’s more that the brand has in store, if given the right exposure. This year, we plan on meeting with many boutiques and organizations to take a look at our brand, with the hopes of becoming a part of their roster of designers. 34-24-36 plans on giving exclusive rights when requested to the various stores and boutiques, as we are flexible on that thought process!

Our mission is to continue our customizing feature to achieve the Perfect Fit for our clientele as well as honing in on new customers.

With a positive outlook for this season and the years thereafter, we want to proudly state that our New York sample room is fully functional and ready to take production on a large or more tapered scale. While the sample room is in Manhattan, our studio is conveniently located in Queens and our representatives have flexible schedules to meet with you at your convenience.

All in all, we look forward to meeting and forming a working relationship, beneficial to all.
We look forward to continuing our great relationships with our current clientele, Press and our fans. With the Holidays rapidly approaching, 34-24-36 wants to make a resounding statement— We are a Brand with lots to be desired! We do not come short or halt until our customers are satisfied. As our motto goes, we aim to deliver The Perfect Fit, each and every time.
