W.A.R. on RedMoon7
  is the fourth studio album else from Floyd Boykin Jr. scheduled to release on August 30th, 2011.  It has been creating quite a buzz from the first single called "Don't Give Up" featuring poet Selena J, and vocalists Patricia Daniels (who also appeared on "EKLIPSE" and "EARTHOLOGY") and Tendai Morris. 

The second release scheduled is a song called "Close To Me" which features singer and dancer Carmen Amara and saxophonist Angelo Shaw. 

W.A.R. on RedMoon7 is a twelve song release featuring a number of artists, in the same fashion of EARTHOLOGY.  Featured on W.A.R. are Rachel Walker, Inna Rae, Tracy Mitchell, Patricia Daniels, Tendai Morris, Angelo Shaw, Marcus Leonard, Ebony Washington, Chris Lok, Ron "Chill" Williams, Tasha B, Carmen Amara, Adrianne Felton, Tia Mitchell from GRAVATY, FB3 (my son), Nyesha Smith, Copasetic Soul, Seviin Li (also featured all all of Floyd's albums), and his brother (real brother) TyLan.

This is an album dealing with social issues, love, hope with dreams, and self empowerment.  Truly one of Floyd's most prolific pieces of work to date. 

W.A.R. stands for "Where Artists Rule".  RedMoon7 is that place we all go to create.  "Red because we hot and we spirit that lyrical fire".  The moon because artists shine on the earth in its time of darkest.  7 believe it is believed that artists are divine beings.

Are you ready for W.A.R.?
