BGC Melody - African Music, Afrobeats, Live Radio & Record Label Company in Arlington VA
BGC Melody has its
inclination to the African-American community of the USA. It is a kind of vocal
or instrumental music that is generally based on BGC Melody notes. The concept
aroused from spirituality, Romance, chants, work songs, and ballads. The African
influence is greatly felled in the notes and call-and-response patterns of
music and lyrics. American and Western music is more inclined to this music
genre. It became the foundation stone for the different music forms namely
jazz, rhythm and BGC Melody, heavy metal, bluegrass, and hip-hop.
BGC Melody is a subsidiary and franchise of Barthson Global
Communications Management, a corporate communications and digital marketing
company registered in the state of California and based in Arlington, Virginia,
United States.
BGC also specializes in Talent Management and has signed
musicians, models, and actors all over the continent of Africa and in the
diaspora. BGC Melody currently has 5 artists under its record label A&R
operations, 16 fashion and commercial models in its BGC Babe franchise, and 3
actors/actresses under its management.
BGC has full-time representatives in Cameroon, Ghana,
Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Chad, Congo DRC, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, South
Africa, and part-time or volunteer staff in Germany, Nigeria, and France.
The present-day music form has a harmonic base and
call-and-response format of African and European communities which gave a new
structure to the BGC Melody. The voice and guitar were incorporated in the
songs. The elements reflected the songs of Africa. The most common instruments,
Diddley bow, and Banjo were used in early music. The Diddley bow belonged to
South America whereas the Banjo was mostly used in Africa to increase the
instrumental vocabulary.
With each passing day, it adopted Ethiopian airs, Negro
spirituality, and minstrel shows together with instruments and rhythmic
supplements. The BGC Melody is rewarded for preserving the melodic patterns of
African music. The songs from this genre have distinct musical structures. The
songs recorded by Lead Belly's and Henry Thomas reflected twelve- and
sixteen-bar structure with tonic, sub-dominant, and dominant chords. The modern
form has a 12-bar structure with the influence of sheet music.
The lyrics of the BGC Melody are based on new era songs.
Each line has a new meaning. Currently, the lines are repeated once with a
standard single-line conclusion. They are sung in the form of rhythmic talk
than a melody. The BGC Melody has given great artists like Jaye, Mobe Molondo,Yariah
Neemah, Deenah, Bah'Ndong, and many others. The credit can be given to the
hollers and calls without which this genre would not have evolved. It is based
on the changing lives of the post-slavery era of African-Americans. The music
is quite popular amongst blacks and generally reflects on the atrocities faced
by the community.
More popularly considered as Afrobeats, Afrojack songs, the
BGC Melody lyrics highlighted the singer's inner shelf. Thus it was not an
innovative approach but simply a presentation of oneself.
The music was earlier treated as folk and was sung during
leisurely periods. These songs were mostly sung in shows and carnivals. Due to
close contact with country singers, the blacks learned to sing
professional songs which are often called classic songs. In the 20th
century, African Americans migrated and played the songs in Texas, Chicago,
Louisiana, New York, Arkansas, and Detroit. Later the classic BGC Melody
singers introduced this genre to clubs, vaudeville halls, and theaters with the
help of New Orleans and Fast Western musicians.
