What is your name and what city do you rep?

My name is Antonio Zarco. I’m an aspiring vocalist and I’m from Monroe Township, NJ.

Tell us about your latest releases, what inspired you to create them? 

Well, there’s a lot of music I am currently working on.. It is original music I am writing and also collabing with other musical artists on some big projects for the future. What inspired me to be able to write my original music that is in the works right now is from a lot of challenges from me growing up. Some difficult times in my life that I couldn’t express myself through words but that can only be expressed through the power of song.

What is unique about you and your music?

I can say that the part about my original music being unique is that it tells a story from only my standpoint, that only I can relate it to difficult times in my life and the struggles I went through to get to where I am today. I also think what’s also unique about my music is that it can relate and bring people closer together knowing that they’re not alone. That my music can hopefully one day also relate to other people based on some similarities that happened in their lives, compared to mine. What makes me unique as an artist, singer, performer is that I live through the power of music. Meaning that I connect through people when I’m singing and performing on stage. I bring the life out of people using the power of song.

When did you realize you were going to make music professionally?

Well at the time I didn’t think I was going to make it professionally until I started to sing when I was very young. When I fell in love with music. My mom always told me I used to sing before I learned how to talk. When I started putting myself out there, doing choir all the way from elementary school through college (present day). I knew music was my life and I wanted to do it for the rest of my life because in all honesty without music I don’t think I would be where I am today. It was when I also started taking music seriously and having a lot of fun with it. Being my artistic self when it came to that lit the room for so many people it made them smile and I loved that and made me want to pursue this for the rest of my life.

What type of music do you listen to?

I grew up listening to a whole variety of genres. I started listening to classical music then transitioning over to Musical Theater, Pop, Pop-Country, R&B, Hip Hop, Jazz, Blues, Gospel and so much more.

What inspires you to write music?

What inspires me to write music is the struggles that I went through as a person whether it was a breakup or something very personal. It brings a lot of emotions and those flow to what I write today and that will be coming out soon.

What do you do when you don’t do music (creative or otherwise) and that you are passionate about?

On some days that I don’t do music, I take the time to go on walks and to appreciate life around me and that we’re very fortunate to have a lot of things in this world that give us hope and strength. Other days I like to spend time with family and friends and to appreciate the people who support me the most. To cherish those special moments and to keep them in your hearts.

What do you wish you were told when you first started making music that you think would help other artists just starting out?

All I can say is, if you love music and you think this is the perfect field of where you want to be and you want to do this for the rest of your life, do it. Don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise. Do what you love to do. Don’t let anyone talk down on you for loving and creating music. Don’t let anyone tell you, you can’t do it because you won’t be successful. The best energy is proving those people wrong and showing them that you can. That’s all that matters. Proving all the haters wrong is the best thing you will ever feel and you won’t even need them anymore. Do what you’re most proud of and keep fighting and never give up on that dream.

Where do we find your music / music projects?

Well as of right now new music is coming out very soon but you can always follow my Instagram and TikTok to stay updated through me.

Jaimye Lynn Kite: The Visionary Author Transforming Pain into Power and Words into Legacy

Jaimye Lynn Kite is more than just a name—she’s a movement, a force of resilience, and an unstoppable visionary. Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, she grew up witnessing the harsh realities of limited opportunities, systemic barriers, and the struggle to leave a lasting impact. But rather than letting these challenges define her, she used them as fuel, breaking through every obstacle to carve out a legacy of empowerment, education, and inspiration.

A Pen, A Purpose, and A Powerful Beginning

Jaimye discovered early on that her voice was meant to uplift and empower. At just 21 years old, she made history—publishing her debut work, As Pretty As a Picture, a bold and transformative book centered on women’s empowerment. But she didn’t stop there. That same year, she secured her first billboard with Global Billboards, marking the beginning of her mission to use words as a catalyst for change.

This achievement wasn’t just a milestone; it was a declaration of purpose—a promise to remind people of their strength, their resilience, and the beauty of their journey.

From Motherhood to Mission: Revolutionizing Literacy for the Next Generation

Life had even bigger plans for Jaimye. The birth of her son, Cairo, unlocked a new passion within her—the drive to change the narrative of early childhood education. She recognized that far too many children, especially those in underserved communities, lacked access to engaging learning materials.

Determined to make a difference, she authored Learning with Captain Cairo, a groundbreaking children’s book designed to spark imagination, encourage literacy, and make learning an adventure. But she didn’t stop at simply publishing—she partnered with nonprofit organizations to donate books to schools, ensuring that every child, regardless of background, had access to the resources they needed to succeed.

Through her growing Learning Library collection, Jaimye is not just writing books—she’s building a legacy of education, empowerment, and opportunity for generations to come.

Planting Seeds of Transformation

Never one to shy away from growth, Jaimye is now stepping into a new era—one of deep self-discovery, healing, and transformation. Her upcoming book, Planting Seeds, is a heartfelt and raw exploration of self-love, breaking cycles, and reclaiming one’s power.

Through her own experiences and hard-earned wisdom, she guides readers through the journey of healing, reminding them that even in the darkest moments, there is always room to grow, thrive, and bloom into the person they were meant to be.

A Legacy in Motion

Jaimye Lynn Kite is proof that you don’t need a perfect past to build an extraordinary future. She embodies the truth that pain can have a purpose, that success is within reach for those who dare to believe, and that words—when wielded with passion—can change lives.

If you’re reading this wondering if you can rise above your circumstances, chase your dreams, and create something meaningful—this is your sign. You absolutely can.
