I was born and raised in The Bronx, Morris Heights Section(1520 Sedgwick Ave / Sedgwick & Cedar Ave). I feel honored to say that I am from the legendary area, in which DJ Kool Herc revolutionized the culture called hip-hop. I started rapping, writing poetry, and playing the drums at the age of 13. I grew up in a household that embraced all genres of music.
I recall, as a teenager, constantly going to concert shows to not only spectate, but to be entertained! I believe the 80's and 90's hip-hop displayed its true glory. I've witnessed rap become abused by people who just want to capitalize and mis-educate our youth, who have no clear understanding of what or where hip-hop is about or where it comes from. I retired from rapping my second year into college to focus on the business aspect of music. I
was apart of a rap group called T.H.L(Trife Hood Life) with My business partner/artist Rich-Man Cannons; long time friend Budda Early, of No Kiddin Records and C.E.O of Stand Up Entertainment. They tasked me my first job at the age of 18 to manage them. My niche and talent rose from this experience. On a righteous note, we all went on to build our own brand and entities(Get Live Entertainment and Budda's Stand Up Entertainment). We give hope to those true artist -who need to be heard without all the hurdles.I credit my internships(Sony Music Entertainment, Tommyboy Records, Blaze/Vibe Magazine) and great people(Leslie Smith R.I.P, James" Butch" Thomas R.I.P, Nica Rene - of Tuffwinz Productions. I am the Chief Executive Officer and President of my own independent record label and artist management company(Get Live Entertainment / I.C.U. Management). I count my blessings and credit my mishaps for being where I am in life today.Get Live Entertainment is a New York/Virginia based indie label started by myself, Andre "Rich-Man Cannons" Lovell, Chad "C.J.Guttah" Jones in 2001. Our artist include C.J. Guttah from The Bronx, C. Dubbs from Brooklyn, Golden Boi Styles from Philly, and Rich-Man Cannons from both Harlem and The Bronx, NY. There are other individuals who, even though, not mentioned, they are apart of Da Get Live Movement Camp.The majority of people or artist we worked with are on our main pages as our top friends.

Embrace the movement y'all, We Here!!!!I told you all about me, so to the individuals to who took time to read this, I appreciate that! My focus in this part is to tell those who use Myspace wisely, and for the right reasons-Kudos. Now for those Myspace gangsters, do yourself a favor and get a life, I am strictly here for business and true friends- God put me on this planet to be a leader and a teacher, but I am still his pupil, so do both of us a favor - do not waste my time; it's entirely precious
and important - I refuse to waste a minute. In other words ladies and Gentlemen, come correct or don't come at all! This is not intended to be cruel, but to be firm on where I stand as a Businessman. All I ask is that you respect that!!Someone emailed me a dear Abby Letter about a broken heart and relationship gone sour. When you love someone, make sure it's truly with your heart and soul and not cheap talk! Actions speak louder than words-so I've learned. Be wise in making decisions when it comes to matters of the heart, be realistic as well, and most of all - that thing called pride, gets us nowhere. God put us here for a primary purpose and in the midst, we encounter teachers, whether through success or failure! Get it how you live and God bless!!
