ADDICTED DOPENESS

Addicted Dopeness is all about creating addictive music and producing a movement of hip-hop sounds with its own distinctive groove. ADP was launched in 1996 when 2 young rappers who formed the company..s premier group, FADEL LEVEL, realized that they were entrepenueurs when they successfully produced, self-packaged, and distributed their first CD, ..Ballin.. But Broke... The CDs release established hundreds of fans who quickly became addicted to Fadel Level..s unique hip-hop style and created a local rap-mania that sold over 5,000 albums. ..Ballin.. But Broke.. was followed by the phenomenal success of their 2nd release, ..Totally Devastating.. and ADP..s independantly produced mixtapes and singles. When asked about the origin of the company..s name, County Brown, CEO and founder of ADP, stated, ..Everyone is addicted to music in their own way, and when music is inspiring, exciting and soulful, we refer to it as being dope... Over the years, through the process of sampling and producing a variety of tunes and artists, ADP discovered that they were truly addicted to realizing their artistic goals, and dope at demonstrating their marketable talents in the music industry.As St. Louis natives, with a wide diversity of artists and a versatile production team, ADP exhibits self-pride and never strays from the challenges of being independant within the industry. ADP is building it..s track record on discovering and developing artists from the ground up, and becoming a creative force within the independant marketplace, while preserving their artists.. integrity and originality. ADP does more than make beats and create songs. ADP is a musical conglomerate of talented entrepeneurs with a vision for putting more than just a one-hit wonder into the music industry.As County Brown stated, ..One of the goals that I have for ADP is to not only create music, but to create an enduring movement. we don..t want listeners to just like us; we want to deliver soulful mix of timeless music in the flavor of legendary R&B artists.Like Lakeside..s memorable ..Fantastic Voyage.., ADP wants to mesmerize their fans by making them ..feel nothing but musical pleasure.. as we take them along for an unforgettable ..dope.. ride...
