Fortune Music News!!
This was a review from www.funkyhousemusic.com on Charles Feelgood's latest mix CD.

Disc Two distinctly separates itself as it immediately proves Feelgood isn't 100% happy house anymore. The current electro house phenom has infected Feelgood's selections as well, and if your taste buds desire what is currently, and forecasted, to be the hot sounds of U.S. clubs, this disc is most definitely for you. Now, as a reviewer, I am attempting to not show bias, but once again, Feelgood is responsible for the hottest track on Disc Two as well.

Fortune 421 Clothing is happy to announce our newest addition to the team ….designer Jon Phenom! Phenom has been in the fashion game for over 10 years getting his start with Osiris then making his way through several companies including Ezekiel and Drunken Monkey learning all the ins and outs of the fashion world. He eventually created his own brand of denim under his Jon Phenom name and has captured quite of bit of attention over the past few years for his unique style. Phenom continues to work on his brand but also currently consults for several brands and we have had the good fortune of crossing paths with him late last year. Starting this past January Phenom has come on board to consult and design for our clothing company and we couldn’t be happier with him on board. We now feel that we have found the missing link to help grow our line grow into the full collection lifestyle clothing brand we seek to be. With his guidance and our ever growing marketing vehicle the sky really is the limit so we hope you will take notice of all the hot gear that will be coming your way in the next few seasons and support the 421 so we can continue to spread the love!

Check out www.jonphenom.com and www.hayfamshow.com to get to know Jon Phenom a little bit better!
