April 2025

1. "Keep On Steppin' Remix"----Mike Clark Jr. feat. The Ying Yang Twins

"Keep On Steppin'" is special in so many ways. For one, it's got three or four music videos running simultaneously because it's so beloved by the dancers. For another, it's by a performer who published his first hit single ("Auntie Outside Tonight") a year ago at the age of eighteen! "Keep On Steppin'" has percussive effects that are nothing short of hypnotic---like a gigantic musical magnet pulling club-goers onto the dance floor. Add a simple but rousing melody delivered in humming verses over the boot-stomping rhythm section and the irrepressible Clark Jr. shouting directions ("We're going to church here y'all!") and you have a young talent on the conveyor belt to stardom.

1."Auntie Outside Tonight"-----Mike Clark Jr.

Macon, Georgia. First time out. Electric vocal. And without another recorded single to his name, Mike Clark, Jr. shoots like a bunny rabbit through all the other hard-working and talented, up-and-coming artists who've been around longer but who haven't been lucky enough to score the right song in the right place at the right time. "Auntie Outside's" the right song, and Mike Clark Jr.'s the man.
