V-Squad was Born (July 12, 1983) and raised in the Acres Homes community on the North side of Houston, Texas, Vernon V Squad Hudson demonstrated an appreciation for quality music at an early age by listening to vinyl recordings of legendary artists and groups such as Prince, The Isley Brothers, Anita Baker and War. As the hip hop revolution began to rise to prominence in the late 80s and early to mid-nineties, he often rushed to the nearest music store to pick up the latest offerings from Jay-Z, Nas, AZ, The Roots, and H-Town legend Scarface. Inspired by what he describes as an intense love and passion for music, Vernon began to develop and hone his emcee skills by writing lyrics to instrumentals produced by the likes of heavyweight producers The Neptunes, Dr. Dre, and Kayne West, to name a few. While perfecting his craft, Vernon has been fortunate to collaborate with a number of artists and producers, including Houston rapper Wine-O (aka Wine-O), Bad Boy South producer Anthony Scoe Walker, G-Unit producer Lab Ox, and Anceo from MTVs Making the Band Series. As a testament to his clever lyrical skills, fluid delivery, and commanding stage presence, he has been afforded opportunities to open up for rap stars Bun B, Redman, Common, and R N B Singer Mya just to name a few. His performance list includes shows at the popular International Sneaker Pimp Tour, Hotzone Media Concert Series, Hush Nightclub, Wherehouse Music Live and several venues in Texas. V-Squad is in a continuous process to develop a catalogue of music that displays the heart, creativity, and conviction that appears to be lacking in much of todays hip hop landscape. With his dedication and work ethic, this process wont stop until greatness is achieved.
