Atlanta Artists History
The album Style followed in 1983 as the first release for Atlanta Artists. This release continued their new musical direction by adding electronic drums to their production. This new sound was a blueprint for their following albums.
The funkgroup Ca$hflow and solo artist Barbara Mitchell (formerly in the female group High Inergy) signed and released for the label, while Blackmon produced also artists on other labels:
- Tomi Jenkins - 1989 / Elektra
- Bobby Brown - 1986 / MCA
- The Reddings - 1985 / Polydor
- George Howard - 1990 / GRP
During Cameo's popular concert tours in the UK around the mid-1980s, Ca$hflow traveled along with them as a supporting act.
In 1991, after Cameo's move to Reprise, Atlanta Artists was absorbed into Mercury Records.
