ALL ABOUT "SLO"Octavis "SLO" Nash was born in Georgia on October 21. Only staying in GA a few years, he later moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota where he began his reign on music. SLO began rapping in junior high with an inspiring friend which latter made up the group "DUCE DEEP." They used to take other artist instrumentals and write to them, then perform the songs at talent shows and house parties. By high school they lost touch and SLO found himself once again a solo artist. Along with the shows and continuous writing, he meets "QUE' Ball and J-Stro then formed an independent label "SUICIDAL RECORDS" and group "SUICIDAL." SUICIDAL recorded their first EP in the summer of 98 titled "I Got Questions." The group was able to move about 500 units on cassette. Performing shows once a month at the Capri Auditorium and hosting after party's to build up a reputation in the city, SUICIDAL followed up with a full length CD in the summer of 99 titled "Ghetto Dreams" which sold about 900 units. LEME O LIVE, an underground talk show in the city, helped spread the word about the new group. When SLO finished high school he decided to move back to Georgia to shop for a deal. He researched a few independent and major labels to seek information on what they had to offer and what they were looking for. He wasn't satisfied with what they had to offer, it wasn't what he was looking for at that time so back to Minnesota it was. SLO then bumped into a friend of his past, Professa, and began recording his solo album out of Rob's studio (CEO OF LIFESTYLE RECORDS) and at the same time negotiating signing with his label "LIFESTYLE RECORDS"; In the meantime, SLO and Professa were doing shows and some lightweight promotion. By the end of his album “EFIL” SLO had a show in the Bay Area set up by his brother of "KEYON PRODUCTINS" at SPACE 550 in San Francisco. Because of the response, SLO and his friends decided to start their own shit and give 110% at becoming the world's hottest record company. By being in the Bay Area, SLO was able to learn some of the independent business side of music. SLO then moved back home to Minnesota were he was beginning to slip back into street activity. SLO's good friend “Solo” began encouraging him to stay focused on what he loved to do and helped set up shows and studio time for him. Solo's brother Outlaw(Mr.100) presented a demo to Mr. Marjani(SNOOKY) in which he embraced the material and offered SLO to come to Milwaukee and perform at the grand opening of his club “MARJANI”. Upon the show being successful Snooky gave SLO the opportunity to further his career by temporarily relocating him to Nevada to record some new material for an upcoming album. While in Nevada SLO realized how much he didn't know about the business side of the music industry. Toward the end of his hibernation SLO felt he was ready to show his hometown and the world he was Winin. Mr. Marjani then provided SLO his own national promotional tour called “THE UM WININ TOUR” featuring National Recording Artists T.I, Lil Wayne, & 8Ball and MJG. Now both SLO and his friends are still learning and implementing all of their time and efforts into "GET RIGHT RECORDS" first major album "Um Winin", also looking forward to his second major album "Sophomore Vet"........................SLO
