Deco story I did about the second man with a mic…the HYPE MAN!
V.A.D.O.
Another artist I am working with now is Vado…
Vado is on a fast track to becoming the next rap sensation out of Harlem. Teeyon Winfree aka Vado grew up in what is known as the “Hall of Fame” area of Harlem, the same streets that spawned hip hop icons Big L, Cam’ron, Mase, Max B and Jae Millz. He is the first artist signed to the U.N., Cam’ron’s newly formed music group.
Vado’s versatile talent, unique rap skills and undeniable swag set him apart from many up and coming artists. He has been featured on a DJ Kay Slay album and has found success with Cam’ron on the well-known DJ Drama “Gangsta Grillz” mixtapes. In addition, Vado’s recorded several tracks with hip hop artists like Rick Ross, Gucci Mane, Mase, Young Chris, Yung LA and Cassidy. He’s also been putting in countless hours in the studio working with producers such as Araab Muzik and AR15. This newcomer has even been seen on Sub Zero DVD.
The New York rapper proudly reps his “Most Hated” crew and is poised to take his career to the next level. Vado was first introduced to the game by legendary battle rapper Jae Millz, who is also a childhood friend. Be on the look out for this young talent who is hungry and anxious to make his mark in hip hop.

Jae Millz DUB Photoshoot
Yesterday was a busy day for me and my (Young Money) artist Jae Millz. After a couple weeks, of planning, styling, coordinating and hustle…we were under a Miami bridge for Millz DUB Magazine photoshoot. He LOVED the purple watch….
Thanks to The Collection for the beautiful 2010 Aston Martin DBS Volante, as well as the shoot stylist Brie of Abriel Style, and “photo shoot” expert Kimi from Pamper Me Pink, they both kept me sane with all the last minute adjustments. I also appreciate UPnUP for accepting my invite to shoot some behind the scenes action for us! You can see more pix from the shoot here http://upnup.blogspot.com/2009/10/jae-millz.html
….and he also put together a quick video of the Millz shoot.
Now of course more is to come On The Flipside …thanks to Alan for the videography!! Thank you’s also go out to Woodie at LRG, Joseph at Last Rights and Rahsaan at Stock X Change for the clothing and Merv the Barber for getting Millz lookin so fresh and so clean! A BIG THANK YOU also to photographer Derek Gil and Rich with WD Corp…it’s a “movement” and this is just the beginning!
What I’m Listening to Right Now…
I picked up Jadakiss – The Last Kiss last week and I LOVE IT! I highly recommend it, especially for hip hop fans…just listening to it really made me feel like he’s bringing East Coast Hip Hop back…not to mention I hear Cam’ron will be back very, VERY soon too, as he’s shooting a new music video this week! FYI… I don’t really purchase much music, and this was money well-spent! MUAH!!
See me interviewing him above On the Flipside for NBA All-Star in Phoenix.
