RMG Amplify is excited to announce it is working with the extremely talented Serge. The Miami-bred artist will release two projects with the help of the label’s marketing services to keep his momentum growing after his Return of the Rookie project from 2015. His next EP, Rookie Season, is due out October 27 and will continue Serge’s underdog journey.

What’s funny is, I’m not into sports at all, but I adopted the mindset, being lowly in heart, someone who hasn’t arrived,” Serge says of considering himself a rookie in the rap game. “I don’t want to feel like I’ve arrived. I want to grind like I’m still a rookie, always learning new things and growing.

He connected with RMG through co-founders Doc Watson and Derek Minor after Canon spoke with him at SXSW about Amplify’s services. Serge says he appreciates the integrity and track record of the label.

The selling point for me is who they are as people,” he says. “They’re good people as well as capable.”

Serge is an amazing artist,” Doc shares of the partnership. “I’m excited about him because of his drive and talent. He is one of the best.”

Serge considers Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Sia as just a few of his musical influences, but also credits Lecrae for having played a major role in igniting his love for Christian hip-hop back in 2007. Serge has since made a name for himself by being featured on projects from FLAME and Json and had a personal achievement when he helped write Lecrae’s “Timepiece” off the gold-certified album, Anomaly.

“It was surreal to see thousands of people on tour sing something I wrote in my room,” he says of watching footage of Lecrae’s concerts.

Although genres are bending and blurring more than ever in today’s industry, Serge truly exemplifies an artist who can do it all: rap, sing and write. He is excited to keep making music from the heart to share his experiences with a lens of faith.

I always want to make art that’s organic to where I’m at in life,” he says.

Look for Serge’s Rookie Season on October 27th via RMG Amplify.

New Christian R&B Artist “GiGi” Shares What Inspired Her New Sound & Life Change

Published

on

Spread the love

GiGi didn’t always know Faith based music would be her lane. Before stepping into Christian R&B, she was preparing to release a secular record, but things didn’t move the way she expected. Doors closed, plans shifted, and what felt confusing at the time ended up being intentional.

That season forced a real decision. Instead of pushing through what wasn’t working, she paid attention to the signs and what God was speaking to her heart in that season. It was during this time of transition that she decided to fully surrender her sound to God. And that “yes” changed everything, not just in direction, but in how her music started to come together.

Out of that shift came her 2025 release “Everlasting,” where listeners first heard the difference. The single centered on obedience, intimacy with God, and what it looks like to trust His direction even when it interrupts your own plans. It wasn’t just a new song — it marked a turning point in her story.

Her music was manifesting in a more grounded message – something more honest, and more connected to her actual walk. It wasn’t just about creating a vibe for attention or to pursue fame. It has now become her goal to make it clear that this version of her and her music is about purpose and inspiring others through Christ. It’s never easy in any industry taking a public stand like this. But, the single was met with nothing less than respect and great feedback from fans on her sound, the message of transformation and the vibes! She has landed interviews on Sirius XM while also being featured on countless blogs – only proving that she’s heading in the right direction.

Now with her latest single “My Heart,” she continues on that same pathway. This song leans into more vulnerability, touching on trust, surrender, and what it looks like to give God access to every part of you. It carries the smooth, familiar feel of R&B, but with continued intention behind every lyric.

That balance is important right now. The sound of R&B is shifting, and so are listeners. People are looking for more than something that just sounds good — they want music that connects, that reflects real life, and in many cases, something that speaks to where they are spiritually.

GiGi is stepping into that space, even if it’s not where she originally planned to be. She’s answering a call that didn’t fully make sense at first, but now shows up clearly in the music she’s creating. And that honesty is what makes it land every time.

Sometimes doors close so we can hear what’s actually meant for us. For GiGi, that led to a sound that reflects who she is now, and it’s clear she’s only building from here.

We’re excited to keep watching this artist grow! Scroll down to hear both singles that have been birthed from this new transition in her life and music.
