CARDO brings new life and originality to the world of Hip-Hop. Hailing from Robbins, IL, a south suburb of Chicago, he is no stranger to the stage nor to the production world. His love for music spawned a career as a local DJ which quickly opened the doors for him to bring his music and street knowledge together on stage as a Hip-Hop/Rap artist. His versatile rap style, bangin' trax, and immaculate flow, immediately made Cardo a local celebrity, sharing the stage with other prominent Hip-Hop and R&B artists such as R Kelly, Da Brat, Twista, Immature, Too Short, and Common.Upon moving to Los Angeles, as CEO and Head Producer of Platinum Kit Productions, he was signed to a production deal with Vertex Records/Earthsong Entertainment, owned and operated by the legendary Chaka Khan.

Their single, "Pimp In The Game" is currently 1 on the charts in TCI and Jamaica.Shortly after, Cardo relocated to London, where he recorded the newly released single "Want You Back" with Hip-Hop group 617, on Accura Records. He also produced a Chi-town remix of "Want You Back".Currently, Cardo is back in the US performing, writing and producing his own project & duo Hip-Hop/R&B group "SIVUL", both due to drop late 2007.
