Independent recording artist Vernon Neilly, who’s musical career lists credits like legendary performers Etta James, Teena Marie, Johnny "Guitar" Watson, George

Clinton, Bobby Bland, Stevie Wonder, to mention only a few, has been on the Billboard "Hot Singles" Retail Chart for 6 consecutive weeks. Vernon’s new single "They

Don’t Care" entered the chart at #12, but has been holding fast in the Top 10 for the last 4 weeks. "They Don’t Care" has been warmly received across music genre lines

for it’s unique sound of rock and hip hop reminiscent of "Run DMC" "Red Hot Chili Peppers" "Blink 182", and others. Vernon who has charted Billboard Top 10 previously

with his critically acclaimed award winning "G-Fire II" CD, say’s that he believes the success of the single "They Don’t Care", and the accompanying video is because

it relates to people of all backgrounds, ethnic and social groups. He further comments that, as a global community we are all affected by crime, violence, socio-

economic collapse, climate change, and other important issues that confront mankind. Simply put "They Don’t Care" is a statement for our times now.

On the album "Outta Time", Vernon has armed himself with virtuoso talent such as, Greg Howe (Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake), Jennifer Batten (Michael Jackson,

Jeff Beck), Doug Wimbish (Living Color, Jeff Beck), Victor Johnson (Busboys, Sammy Hagar), Kiko Loureiro (Megadeth, Angra), and others who put on a blistering sonic

display, seasoning each song appropriately.

The music is available for sale in all digital stores globally.
