Mr. Rob Diggy of Rob Diggy Entertainment created the theme song for The Society Girls (as heard on its site).
Rob Diggy is a Multi-Talented Producer, Arranger, and Film Composer. As a Film Composer, Diggy has been quite successful and accredits his success to two of his well-known mentors, Spike Lee and Quincy Jones; he says,” these men have had a great impact on his life by what they have contributed to the Film and Entertainment Industry over the years. Rob Diggy, often called “The Sixth Man of Music”, has been compared to phenomenal Composer’s and Producer’s like Terrence Blanchard, Brian Tyler, and Danny Elfman.
When Beyonce released her Multi-Platinum “Dangerously In Love” album in 2004, it featured the smash hit “Crazy In Love”, which earned Diggy a Grammy and a Certified Gold Record for his Outstanding Keyboard Arrangement and Musicianship for the remix. Diggy also recognizes that much of his success as an Arranger and a musician comes from another mentor and long time friend, Morris Hayes (Keyboard player for the famed artist “Prince”). Morris taught Diggy the art of keyboard synthesis and to this day still learns from him.

CELEBRITY JUDGES
Musically, we have come to a place where vulgarity is defined as sensuality and originality means nothing more than adding a new vocal rift to an old sampled favorite. In today’s music business, talent and artistry have nothing to do with success. Yet rising like a phoenix from the ashes is a shining star. Interscope Recording Artist MORRIS MILLS stands out as the exception to the rule. All sorts of comparisons to other artists could be made, but Mr. Mills is in fact in a class by himself.
SUZY BRACK has made over two dozen appearances in major and independent films and television shows in the last few years, most of them filmed in Chicago.

Her live theater credentials include a tour of Russia in Aristophanes' "The Birds”. Most recently she appeared onstage as Nollie ten Boom in Provision Theater’s world premiere of “The Hiding Place,” a character she will reprise in film this year. The soon-to-debut movie comedy “My Guaranteed Student Loan,” presents her in a starring role opposite Academy Award winner Celeste Holm. She is a voting member of the National Academy Of Recording Arts & Sciences (the Grammy organization) and is an Actors' Equity Membership Candidate.
MICHAEL DRAYTON, SR. surprised the gospel music industry in Chicago in 1980. He was kicked out of a church for playing “too many notes “and so the story began.

He has played behind such artists as Dorinda Clark of the Clark Sisters, Bebe and Cece Winans to name a few. He has worked in the studio with Public Announcement, Crucial Conflict, George Clinton, and has mixed and engineered with major artists.
