GAMEFACE Named ' GameFace' in 2001 by the streets of LA. GameFace started listennng to Rap at 9 years of age & making beats, producing, writing lyrics & rapping at the age of 15 years. Two years later (2001) he took his music into the streets of LA & found friendship with those who shared his passion for Rap & were not afraid to get down & dirty to make it happen. In 2003 GameFace was invited by Bushwick Bill to perform in his 16-city tour down South in the States & at this time GameFace & Bushwick recorded in studio together. During his time & throughout 2003 GameFace's friends from LA travelled with him & together they sold 10,000 of GameFace's first CD out of the trunk of their car. GameFace was deported from the States in late 2003 subsequently his jet setting days he had enjoyed over the past 10 years of living between Australia & the States, was put on hold for 3 years by immigration. During this time GameFace has been living in Sydney, Australia, writing new material & developing his artist originality rather than commercially mainstreaming his music material or limiting his lyrical content to solely identify with his country of origin but rather to depict the origin of his epic life experiences.

Both born and raised in The Woods, Maywood & Bellwood Illinois (Murda Woods as it is referred to by its residents). There were many pit falls in the small town that lay just outside the west side of Chicago, but The Cartel managed to use music as a way to escape the negativity that awaited in the streets. They have spent the last 3 years working to bring innovative and compelling music to the world and have already begun to generate a buzz in the their home town that is reaching further and further outwards towards the city of Chicago. Their first release, The Hijack Mixtape, was received well by the public, selling 500 units locally. The Cartel plans to bring the sound of their city The Woods to the masses by approaching tracks with their clever word play, razor sharp wit, and one of a kind delivery.URL:http://www.myspace.com/tmcstreetteamOG GENO-Irving "OG Geno" Jones, was born the youngest of 6 children on 6/15/1969 in the city of Chicago to Ruby Lee Jones & Creadel "Red" Jones, the original bass singer of the Chi-Lites, (born 9/26/1940- died 8/25/1994- R.I.P. Dad). His first place of residence was the Robert Taylor Homes housing projects (4525 building) on the city's southside. There is where he spent the first 9 years of his life, learning to play the games that the projects play. From there he lived in a few other southside neighborhoods- 57th & Calumet- 56 & Throop and the Ida B. Wells projects. He attended Coleman Elementary, Carter Elementary & Dunbar High School, where he dropped out in the 9th grade. Geno's mother moved to the northside of Flint, Michigan in 1985. After living in Chicago for another year, Geno's brother & sister bought him a bus ticket to move to Flint with his mother in 1986, which is where he still lives today. Geno found Flint to be much different from Chicago, but as any true hustler, he learned to live there, and gain a few friends along the way. Geno was no stranger to gang life. While living in the Robert Taylor homes at age 7 or 8, he and 2 friends of his started a small gang that they named the Black Dragons. When he moved from the projects in 1978 he brung the gang's name with him & got a few other young boys in his new neighborhood to join up with him. A couple of years later he was associating with the Black Disciples & the Gangster Disciples & would later gone on to form his own street family, called the Guntown Gangster Organization in 1988. Geno is no longer gangbangin. Geno says that spending the first half of his life in Chicago & the later years in Flint, has showed him that every city has ghettos and somebody that's starting trouble. This is where he got most of the content for the songs that he creates. Geno always had a love for music. He became hooked to hiphop after hearing Rappers Delight by the Sugarhill Gang in 1980. At age 11 he learned all the words, and would spit it word for word, while his friends would say, how you remember all of that? His reply would always be "I don't know". By age 13, he was writing to other artists songs, changing the words, but keeping the flow and music of some of the top artist at that time. He did'nt know at the time, that would be the start of his G. Style Records. Thru out the 80's & 90's, Geno kept writing & flowin', then in 1998 he bought his first (well, actually 2nd, but that's another story) keyboard for $312 (the amount of his rent that month) and started writing songs to the beats in the keyboard, as well as songs to the beats he was creating. He would record his songs on a tape deck in his apartment's living room. He had a couple of homeboys (Mizzike & D. Rick) that use to stop by & flow to some of his beats. The 3 of them would also get on some songs together. After months of freestylin' over so many beats, Geno saw they he & his homeboys had it, & that he could make beats that other rappers could feel & want to flow on. This was the 2nd stage of G. Style Records. In 2001, Geno moved from his apartment & bought a house, & this is where the studio really came to be. He bought another keyboard, a 24 channel mixer, a digital recorder & a cd recorder. Thru much trial & error, he taught himself how to write songs, make beats, arrange the songs, perform the vocals on the songs & record the songs. (That's determenation for you) He would pass the cd's off to some homeboys, to see what they thought, and they were all diggin' it. Some of them would even remember the words to his songs & flow to it while it was playing, letting him know that his music could catch a person's attention. In 2005, Geno decided to go worldwide with his G. Style Records & posted his music on different websites like soundclick.com, myspace.com, Independent Artist Company.com & a few others. The response from all has been extremly well, once again showing the OG Geno that there is a place for his G. Style Records, & now he's commited to staying in the studio, making beats, writing songs, and flowin' on the mic the G. style way....URL:http://www.myspace.com/oggenoYoung Duce or Duce-C as he is known in Hip-Hop circles has been working his craft since a young age.

One of five kids raised by a single mother due to his biological father hooked on drugs, "Music and the streets was my father, until Will came into my life". At the age of eight, a well known member of organized crime by the name of "Big Will" was introduced to his mother and took the father role for the young Junius. At age nine Junius got physically involved with music writing songs for himself and other kids in the neighborhood. In 1996 Junius played a student in the studio of Death Row Records. Watching the way Death Row Artist created music and took over that year, Junius knew this is what he wanted to do. Besides, what can be a better motivation then the late Tupac Shakur? Junius would go on to learn the ropes and record music in a studio called Roc Noisy entertainment, through the years of 1999-2001. Junius dream would take a major turn after the death of his father "Big Will" in 2001. While continuing with music, he would do quite a few opening acts for local Chicago artist. Junius ran into another set back after being found guilty of attempted murder and sentenced to four years in the state penitentiary. There he will not write nor practice his gift, but focus on rebuilding his self mentally and correcting his past mistakes. After being released he would unite with his group called YT, bringing a street buzz with multiple mixtapes. While things seem to blow, Junius found himself in a familiar position. He was shot a total of four times on two separate occasions between the years of 2005 & 2007. He would once again survive another chapter of his life. In 2007, the father of three will take his older brothers' (TRILL) advice and form his own label 225 records. While labels are contacting Junius, he still remains independent ready to launch his solo project titled "Till Death Do Us Part", coming in 2009. With his intense flow, catchy punch lines, and ability to create solid hooks. It is expected to be a solid project leaving Junius to say; "You can't get life with out struggle, so it is what it is ABK!!!!KodeBlack Musicâ„¢- Never Off Center (N.O.C) Entertainment was founded and created by Karlton "Kode Black" Francis Yonkers native A company that the music public says we need in today's society for musical relief.

Before being Snoop's producer of choice during the late '90s and early 2000s, Wells began his career as part of a funk band called Trey Lewd that also featured Tracey Lewis,George Clinton's son; this provided him with the opportunity to work with Clinton himself. By 1993, Wells found himself working alongside producer/rapper Def Jef; the two's production on Shaquille O'Neil's "I Got Skillz" (a surprise hit single) won them instant credentials. Throughout the mid-'90s, he continued to hone his craft, working on a number of remix projects before eventually being introduced to Snoop through a friend. Before long, the two were working together as a potent duo, beginning with "Still a G Thang," one of the better songs on Snoop's Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told. Wells produced a few No Limit songs featuring Snoop Tru's "It's a Beautiful Thang," Silkk the Shocker's "Get It Up" before playing a major role in bringing a West Coast sound to Snoop's Top Dogg album in 1999: "In Love With a Thug," "Better Days," "Gangsta Ride," among others. In 2000 he reprised his role as one of Snoop's producers of choice, producing tracks for Tha Eastsidaz' self-titled debut and Doggy's Angels' Pleezbalevit, as well as Snoop's own Tha Last Meal ("Go Away," "Issues"). http://www.myspace.com/tharealmeechwells
