Aveleen Rose Entertainment to Represent Rapper and Spoken Word Artist, John Bernard
23 September 2022 - Press releaseThe London-based artist services agency, Aveleen Rose Entertainment has announced new management signing with rapper and spoken word artist John Bernard.
Corina Sabou, the CEO and founder of Aveleen Rose Entertainment, said: “What impressed me the most, apart from his artistry, was his desire and determination to bring positivity into the world and inspire people. John is definitely in the industry for all the right reasons. We have big plans for John, and we are excited to be on this journey together”.
Coventry rapper John Bernard earned national recognition for his artistry, which comments on social issues, youth empowerment, faith, and purpose. He has been featured on BBC Radio 3’s The Verb and BBC Radio 5 Live and was a finalist of BBC 1Extra and Asian Network’s BBC Words First in 2021. He has also been commissioned by BBC to create new work for the Black History Month. So far in 2022 he has performed at Shambala and Godiva Festival and the Birmingham Commonwealth Games.
“I have always gravitated towards the creative side of things,” says John. "Writing poetry was a way for me to express myself which then led to writing with music. I had a tumultuous childhood. I was orphaned at a young age, but one thing that kept me in position and purposeful was that the mentors I had kept me pushing towards my vision, of one day making a difference with my gift.”
John has set up a social enterprise called BACE (Be A Change Everywhere) working with young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, teaching them how to write poetry, song writing, music production, sound engineering and performance.
“I want to be able to give back to my community,” he says. “I see myself empowering young people and I aspire to inspire.”
"I am looking forward to working with Aveleen Rose Entertainment,” says John, “because I believe that it is not everyone that you should entrust nor share your vision with. But I found Corina to be a person that understood the purpose behind what I am trying to do and achieve. I am excited to see what the future holds."
John is currently touring with Not3S, is preparing a new single release for October, and an EP launch followed by a headline tour in 2023.
