~Pink Ink Entertainment taps into Drew's Vision~

If you know anything about Five Towns College and the talent that circulates in that building, then you wont be surprised to find that Andrew was one of the names being whispered as a major talent. His vocals are very sultry and confident and carry a message to "R&B dudes" all around that its time to step it up. Call me bias but Drew is definitely one of my favorite male vocalist and his dedication will drive the machine that is Drew Vision.

                   Drew Vision, born Andrew McCreary is a native of Long Island, NY. As the first child of a pianist father and percussionist mother, music is apart of his DNA. Young Andrew began his musical quest at age 5 singing in his church choir where the exceptionally perceptive youth realized his love for music and ability to affect people with his voice. From there, Drew's talents grew and his focus on obtaining a career in music was solidified, not for stardom or notoriety but for his acknowledgment of what the power of music and it's incredible reach could do to impact the world. In junior high Drew was accepted in the honors council choir and toured extensively throughout the eastern states. While balancing his role in church and school choirs, Drew also became interested in acting, obtaining lead roles in his high school plays and began modeling. As a music major at Five Towns College Andrew evolved into Drew Vision. Using his talents to address his concern for the world's plights including the environment, hunger and poverty. It was in college that Drew began recording relevant, forward thinking material that evolved into heart stirring thoughtful masterpieces. Calling on the musical influences such as Stevie Wonder and Mozart to Michael Jackson and Donnie McKlurkin, Drew and his music are tapping into uncharted territory in today's musical landscape. Drew Vision is more than a name, more than one person, he, himself has a vision of his place in this world and is using an innate blessings of voice and composition to make a difference.

"JOSH X SHOUTS OUT MISS.CASSANDRA IN YouKnowIGotSoul.com "


A lot of you may or may not know that for years, I've sung backup for, as well as, wrote and recorded music with Josh Xantus (MUSA/Capitol Records recording artist). Him and I are great friends and I was excited to find out that I was mentioned in his latest interview.

CHECKOUT WHAT HE HAD TO SAY ABOUT ME:

YKIGS: Tell me about the mixtape you released late last year “Josh X-Mas.” It was kinda ballad heavy, is that going to be similar to the sound of the album? Are you going to do a lot of ballads?

JX: Yea I wrote the ballads on the album, definitely wrote the ballads on that, I co-wrote with some people like my home girl Cassandra, we went to school together and she’s a  dope writer, she actually sings backup for me. I wrote like 90% of that mixtape. Basically that’s a side of my artistry that you will see on the album because I think that’s dear to
me and I think that’s what distinguishes me from other r&b artists. I could do club   records, radio records, but there’s a side where I can give you songs when you just want to mellow out with your girl or you want to listen to a real r&b song.
So when you listen to “Can I Live,” you’ll find a mixture of those songs and songs like “I Don’t Care” and “Let’s Ride.” It’s a dope album, I’m happy with it and I feel it shows a lot of different music. Nothing on that album is going to sound the same.
