#GRAMMY Amplifier Contest
Hey guys. I just submitted the first song I ever wrote ("4ME") to the Grammy Amplifier contest. For those who do not know about it, winners get an opportunity to be professionally mentored by an established industry figure. The object of the contest is to get your song "Amplified" and this is done by simply visiting my Grammy Amplifier page and sharing this on any of your social media sites. So please, to everyone who has been supporting me thus far VISIT THIS LINK and "Amplify" it to Facebook or Twitter, ASAP... It will not take long.

#teamGEMS gets an ASMA & GRAMMY NOMINATION... also NEW MIXTAPE OUT!
It's been a powerful year for #teamGEMS closing out the year with two nominations in New York City's All Star Music Awards in categories:
1. Female R&B Artist of the Year
2. Artist Website of the Year (www.omgruby.net)
And to top it off.... :: drumrolls :: #teamGEMS start banging on your desks... cause.... WE GOT A GRAMMY NOMINATION UNDER THE BELT TOO... for vocal work done earlier this year on Kanye's YEEZUS ("On Sight"). Remember previous posts about that? Well, turns out, hard work with good people does pay off. He's up for Best Rap Album, as a result, anyone who contributed works to this album qualifies for a Grammy certificate. I owe this opportunity to the people God has placed in my life... my directors Ken Lewis, Alvin Fields and Carmen Roman and the entire Audio School Online Choir.
This is a huge blessing as you have no idea how this helps inspire other people to pursue their dreams and push through adversity. While I was helping out with the Kanye West project, I was in and out of the hospital after just having been diagnosed with Lupus. Many times, I wanted to just stay laid up in my bed. Between the aches and the fatigue, sometimes it can be a challenge to get anything accomplished. But, I stepped out in faith and now I am a part of a notable project that will open up so many other doors for #teamGEMS. Looking forward to Kanye taking a Grammy home and that Grammy Season 2015, brings about more nominations.
