BOOK OF LIFE: CHAPTER IV
Ewing R. Samuels III Delivers a Global Masterpiece From the Heart of Belize
Redefining What It Means to Be a Hitmaker in the 21st Century
Belmopan, Belize — Music mogul, executive producer, and creative architect Ewing R. Samuels III releases Book of Life: Chapter IV, the fourth installment of his groundbreaking music series under his globally respected imprint, Iconic Music Group (IMG). The 21-track release is a genre-spanning celebration of sound, soul, and strategy—delivered not from a traditional entertainment capital, but from the creative engine of Samuels’ home country of Belize.
In an era where geography is no longer a limitation, Mr. Samuels has proven that genius resides not in a location—but within the person bold enough to believe in it. Book of Life: Chapter IV is a transformative artistic statement and a reaffirmation of Samuels’ position as one of the most powerful creative minds in the entertainment industry today. The album features an all-star global lineup of hand-selected vocalists and rising stars, with every song written, arranged, composed, produced, and published solely by Samuels himself.
“Hitmakers like Ewing aren’t just consistent—they’re generational,” said Rob Stringer, Chairman of Sony Music Entertainment. “What he brings to the table—vision, execution, taste—is rare. We need more leaders like him guiding where this industry is going.” (Quote from Stringer’s 2020 Global Music Creators Forum)
Book of Life: Chapter IV spans multiple genres—R&B, Soul, Reggae, Pop, Rock, Latin Pop, Country, Afrobeats, Smooth Jazz, K-Pop, and more—further showcasing Mr. Samuels’ curatorial genius as a chartmaker, taste connoisseur, mogul, svengali, and chairman of a forward-facing company that sits comfortably at the intersection of music, technology, culture, and global impact.
