Mathew Knowles Producer & Show Creator Of New Reality Show "Breaking From Above"


America’s pop princess Beyoncé Knowles-Carter is expecting a new baby with her husband Jay-Z, while her dad is birthing the world’s next all-girl group pop stars. He’s the executive producer and show creator of  ”Breaking From Above,” a new reality series featuring a hot group of girls From Above—five thrill-seekers from the U.K. on the ride of their lives. Ashley, Daisy, Seyi, Chelsey and Monique are all in their early 20s and have had various roles in the
entertainment business, from singer-songwriter to featured dancer on the Kanye West tour, to lead vocalist  in a U.K. girl band to dancer on a UK dance reality show. Now signed to the Music World Music label, they are taking it to the next level.
The five girls will be hopping the Pond to Houston for a much-anticipated date with the Music World Entertainment founder, president and CEO — Knowles is a man who knows a thing or two about turning girl groups into gold. He’ll put the group through his trademark Star Power™ Boot Camp of hardcore physical, vocal, media and choreography training to emphasize the philosophy that made global superstars of his protégés Destiny’s Child (Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams): work, work and more hard work. But there’s a twist – when  the girls get to Houston, they quickly learn that there are two new girls, Jasmine and Brandy, living in the house with them and they are now all in competition for a spot in From Above.
The pressure mounts over the course of their artist development camp, as the girls are put through their paces by famed choreographers Danielle Polanco (who has danced with and choreographed Janet Jackson, Omarion, Lady Gaga  and of course Beyoncé) and Frank Gaston (who worked with Michael Jackson, Destiny’s Child, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Usher and Beyoncé), as well as musical director Tom McKinney (Solange Knowles, Mario, Ray J, and Kevin McHale) and fitness instructor Rozelle Jones of Camp Gladiator. And as Knowles remains very hands-on, especially when it comes to team-building and trust exercises, the studio beckons as the group start to develop their “sound.”
