ClickRadio today announced that it has been granted an interactive radio license by Tommy Boy, the groundbreaking independent label. The agreement brings Tommy Boy’s catalog of over 200 albums spanning Rap, Dance, Rock and Gospel to ClickRadio’s free, personalizable, Internet-enabled digital radio service, which delivers a completely different way to hear music offline and a better listening experience than streaming audio or FM radio. From beginnings in CEO Tom Silverman’s apartment, Tommy Boy has established itself as a multi-genre label with multi-platinum artists. Early hits by Afrika Bambaata, Queen Latifah, Soul Sonic Force and Stetsasonic laid the foundation for completely new genres of music such as Rap and cutting-edge electronic Hip-Hop, establishing Tommy Boy as home to a wide range of musical offerings. Today, Tommy Boy’s repertoire includes De La Soul, whose Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump debuted at number one on Billboard’s Top Independent Album chart, as well as Digital Underground, Naughty By Nature and other Hip-Hop groups; Rap artists like Capone-N-Noreaga, Tony Touch and Queen Latifah; Jocelyn Enriquez, Amber, Victor Calderone and other dance artists; even Gospel acts such as Kim Burrell and Tonex. Tommy Boy artist Everlast’s new album Eat at Whitey’s, the follow-up to Whitey Ford Sings the Blues, Everlast’s triple platinum 1998 solo album, will be released today. Meanwhile, Handsome Boy Modeling School and Pimpadelic are making major inroads in Rock. Tom Silverman, Founder and CEO of Tommy Boy said, “Since our inception, Tommy Boy has been synonymous with ground-breaking trends in music. With its unique, interactive listening experience, ClickRadio breaks new ground in the relationship between music fans and the music they want to hear. We’re excited about bringing Tommy Boy artists to ClickRadio’s great new service.”
