 @LatifMercado
  
 It's getting warmer out there and I sense a Freestyle heatwave approaching. Promoters, are you ready to put together the concert of the year? I am! Give me a call, I have some new acts on board and of course my regulars are as seasoned as ever.  Oh and did I mention the re0uniting of the "Original" Cover Girls? Give me a call, I'll tell you all about it.  I'll be waiting!
 
 
 The artist below are  available for bookings. If there is an artist that you are interested in but do not see them on this  roster, please call me. 704-226-8900
   Peace Latif Mercado Owner / Agent La' Entertainment Latif@La-Entertainment.com 
 I can not stress this enough. Please for the sake of The Freestyle community.. STOP PROMOTING, SUPPORTING, SOLICITING, AND TURNING A BLIND EYE TO IMPOSTER ACTS... It's going to destroy what little we have left. Websites, radio stations, messageboads and anyone who claim to support Freestyle, yet support "Dummies" in any shape or form, are no better than the "Dummies" themselves and will get no respect from me, as they should get no respect from others who are trying to make an honest living within the Freestyle genre.

 Oh Snap is right!
 After years of being duped by the impostors, the "Originals" are back! Caroline, Margo, and of course Angel are back together, bringing you all the Cover Girl hits like they did back in the day. Be one of the first to bring them to your club or concert event.  Call me now!

Lil' Suzy 
  Always in high demand, Lil' Suzy is still considered the youngest Freestyle artist to have classic songs. When much of the East Coast gave up on Freestyle. the Lil' Suzy camp took her to the other side of the country and promoted her as a new artist.  It worked, and she worked constantly. La' Entertainment has been a part of that movement since the begining, and we must say, that Lil' Suzy opened up alot of doors for many of the artist now frequenting the West Coast... Thanks Suzy! More than five albums worth of great Freestyle music, Suzy has proven her dedication and consistancy throughout the years. Her performances are energising and her memorable songs keep you singing along to every word. her repeat rate is probably The highest of any of the acts on my roster. Suzy is a La' Exclusive artist, but that's cool, if you are an agent, just call me, I'll hook you up. Now let's put Suzy on your calendar.

 |  ANGEL "The Original CoverGirl"  
Click ImageNo other Freestyle group has been immitated more than The Cover Girls. But no matter how many immitators there are, no one can even come close to Angel the Original CoverGirl. Amazing performer, phenomenal vocalist, and  the most beautiful woman on the face of the earth...  and I'm not saying that because she's my wife and reading over my shoulder as I write!|  |  One thing that stood out to me about Angel when I first started working with her was, whether she had 5 people or 5,000 people in the audience, she always gave her all, and enjoyed every bit of it. Her magnetic personality is extremely vibrant and if I don't take her by the hand and say, "We gotta go" she'll hang out and talk with every single fan in your audience. promoters love her and she too has an amazing repeat rate. Give me a call, lets talk, and if you never had Angel perform at your event, you don't know what you're missing. Angel is also La' Exclusive!

 |  LISETTE MELENDEZ
  She gave Freestyle it's cool edge,and crossed it over into the Hip Hop realm with her hit Goody Goody. Lisette Melendez has always been one of my favorites and when I envisioned who the 3rd member of S.A.L might be, she immediately came to mind. It's a pleasure working with her.

        | |  S.A.L.
Suzy   Angel  Lisette   
   
 What the hell was Latif thinking when he put together the ultimate Freestyle package and named it after his long time nemesis?"The S.A.L. Concept, established in 2004, stemmed from a personal problem of my own. While on the road with Lil' Suzy for over 20 years, things got really stressful when I got involved with Angel and began rebuilding her performance career. Between these two ladies, I was accumilating crazy flyer miles and a bad back from flying so much. I had Suzy working in markets such as San Jose, Dallas and Chicago.  Angel in Los Angeles, Detroit and New York. The only options I had were either getting another Road Manager or booking their shows together, the girls crushed the first option. But now the challenge was, how was I going to cross-book them. I figured I needed a bridge, a third person to fill in the market gaps, opening for us the entire country. I booked Lisette Melendez along with Angel at a club in Rode Island one night and we shared a limo.  It gave me about four hours each way to get to know Lisette.
 That night I told Angel, "I think I found the bridge"  The next morning I was on the phone with Lisette. she was cool with the idea, but I could hear a little hesitation in her voice, well of course, she didn't really know me or what I could possibly do. Two weeks later, I booked the girls to do a car show for Low Rider Magazine in Indiana. I had 4 show tapes that I produced and burned to CD and brought 3 CD walkmans with me.  The girls hooked up for the firt time at Newark Airport. I had made sure that I had them seated together.  Once they entered the plane and were seated, I handed them the walkmans and show tapes and told them to put something together.  This task would tell me alot, and pretty much predict how doable this project might actually be. We landed in Indiana, the limo picked us up and rushed us directly to the venue. The girls ran into the dressing room to freshen up and change, and from there right on to the stage in front of over 8,000 people. I was a nervous wreck, had no idea what to expect. But as I watched, a magical thing happened as each girl brought what they were each famous for to the table. The crowd wouldn't stop cheering. They did it, and I was exhausted!   I knew right then, we had something special. "If you are yet to experience an S.A.L. performance, what are you waiting for? S.A.L. is also a La' Exclusive act!.

 SKEE-LO 
 "I Wish I Was Little Bit Taller, I Wish I Was A Baller...   Must I continue? Who didn't love this joint? An absolute feel good, fun track. Well, Skee-Lo is back on the scene, and La' Entertainment has agreed to come along for the ride. I represent many of our favorite Classic Icons, most entertaining a more serious note. But with this artist, your audience gets to experience the full spectrum of what Hip Hop is all about. Call me now, and lets get Skee-Lo to your next event.   BOOK THIS ARTIST NOW

|  SHANNON 
 I've always considered Shannon the bridge between Disco and Freestyle. I like working with her and have booked her many times. Give me a call and lets talk about Shannon, and if you don't remember her songs, don't worry, I'll sing them to you!

 BABY BASH
    Being born and raised on the East Coast all of my life, I know that if it wasn't for my involvement in this business I wouldn't have had the opportunity to experience the West Coast's incredibly talented artist. From Frankie J, to Angelina, Skee-Lo and now Baby Bash, I have to admit it, The West Coast definitely has it going on. My advice to my East Coast promoters.. Come on, give them a try, I promise you will not be disappointment.     BOOK THIS ARTIST NOW

 |  GEORGE LAMOND   It makes my job really easy when I could recommend an act with total assurance that the promoter and his audience will be pleased. I have to admit, George has gone out his way for me many times, to accomodate my clients and it's never gone unnoticed.If you haven't seen a George LaMond performance, put it on your list, trust me, you won't be dissapointed.
     
 
 | 
 
|  CONNIE She has lots of songs and a full performance, but with a song like "Funky Little Beat", she really doesn't need much more than that. Connie is very accomodating and easy to work with.

Kyle Rifkin At First He Made America Cry, Now He Makes 'em Dance!      |  |  NOEL Yea yea we know, he shouldn't smoke, but hey, it's Noel! Gotta admit though, pretty cool pose!  Must I tell you the songs he sings? Of course I don't, he is a great performer and takes is job really serious. If you are a Freestyle promoter, chances are, you've seen his show and probably had him before, so come on, lets brings him back!
 
 
     | 
 |  THE JETS Do I really have to remind you of who this group is?  Though the promo picture shows just four of them, events that I have sent them to have seen up to nine of them performing on stage.  I have to admit, The Jets have become one of my favorites.

 |  Frankie J
 
    Spending much time on the WestCoast with Lil' Suzy, I was pretty familiar with Frankie J, way back when he was with the Kumbia Kings. Though I thought it was a great group, Frankie always stood out and of course, it's because he was always meant to fly solo.  Interested in booking Frankie J to perform at your event? Give me a call, and let's get him there.   BOOK THIS ARTIST NOW

|  FREEDOM WILLIAMS No doubt he'll make you sweat till you bleed...  Must I say more? 
 
 
 
 Video Coming Soon!
    |  
|  Rob Base  He's done more Freestyle concerts than many of the Freestyle artist themselves, so of course Rob Base had to be added to this Roster Blast. I've booked him numerous times and he is yet to let me or my clients down. If you are booking a Freestyle concert and want to add a little spice to it, Rob Base is the perfect ingredient. Easy to work with and well worth his asking. 
 BOOK THIS ARTIST NOW
   
 |  |  TRINERE I've been booking Trinere for a few years now, and one thing I can say is, my promoters always call to thank me afterwards. Trinere was introduced to me by LB from the group Freestyle, and we've maintained a heathy working relationship ever since. Trinere was one of the first successful Freestyle acts to come out of South Florida and though she's still exremely popular through out Florida, her name and music has transcend state lines. Trinere stays pretty busy, but there's always room for another show. So come on, give me a call. 
 
 | 
 |  Rapper's Delight   Feat. Wonder Mike and Master Gee with HenDogg and DJ T Dynasty Talk about a group that will bring you back to an incredible  time. This was the group I wanted to be down with growing up... and so did every other aspiring rapper who many made their own mark in the genre. Book these guys today and watch your audiences reaction as they take stage.... Magical! 
 
 
 I don't call it Old School ... I call it Classic!   
 | 
 |  CORO One of the few shows I myself come out to see. Lots of energy and great songs. I like Coro, he's a good guy, never complains, very professional. I want to get him more Westcoast work.  Give me a call.

 |  Tim "Spinnin' Schommer 
 
 The Legendary I would like to be the first to welcomeTim "Spinnin"Schommer to the La' Enetrtainment Roster. I have always been a fan of Tim, having seen him entertain the masses with his unique approach to Djing Freestyle music. Most any Freestyle club or concert event requires a DJ to keep the vibe going, and in my opinion, there is no one better than Tim. Give me a call and lets talk about getting Tim on your next event, trust me, you won't regret it!    (Book Tim Spinnin' and Danski together for a special rate)       | 
 | GARY "NESTA" PINE

|  FREESTYLE 
 Man, I thought I would never hear from this group again, and then I'm at a concert and there they are!  They haven't changed a bit. I use to run into them on the road all the time and my boy LB would yell out to me, "Yo La' what's up with the shows?" Then I did it, and got him on one of the biggest Freestyle Tours that was happening at the time, everyone loved their show, and so will you. Freestyle is currently on the road and might be passing through your town. Give me a call!

 Willie Valentin     I pretty much grew up with Willie in this business, and though we've known each other forever, I never truly had the pleasure of working with him. I find Willie and extraordinary talent. His ability to maintain a loyal roster of artist as well as a consistent stream of releases on his Artistik label, proves to me that he is not just a great talent, but also a much better businessman than most of the so-called established entities. Though for years he's dedicated himself to getting behind others, I was happy to hear that he was finally getting behind himself. If you have not had the chance the check out a Willie Valentin performance, you need to call me immediately! Believe me, you won't be disappointed.    BOOK THIS ARTIST NOW

|  BRENDA K. STARR 
 Who doesn't know Brenda K. Starr? Ballads are one of the hardest things to entertain an audience with, but Brenda shows us how it's done. Oh yeah, she's got tons of songs, covering both Freestyle and Salsa. But a Brenda K. Starr show isn't complete without her performance of "I Still Believe".
 
 
 Video Coming Soon!      |  
|  PLANET PATROL  Now this was the vibe I was on growing up. Whenever I hear Play It At Your Own Risk, it brings to mind so many great memories. That's my boy Herb Jackson in the middle. These guys are really good and the songs bring you way back. 
 
   
  |  
|  JOHNNY O When you look up the word "Energy" you'll see a picture of Johnny O performing for a crowd of die-hard Freestyle fans. Again, whether alone or performing his duet with Cynthia, Johnny never fails his audience.
 
 
 |  
|  DEBBIE DEB Most of the time I can't even hear Debbie singing, because the crowd is singing along. Her songs are straight-up "Party" and her performance goes perfectly with it.
 
 
 Video Coming Soon!    |  
|  ERNEST THOMAS 
 Yes yes... it's Raj!  But hey, that was back in the day.  have you seen him in "Everybody Hates Chris?  Ernest stays busy. He's a great show host, motivational speaker, teacher, producer, director and did I tell you he's one of my best friends...
 Give me a call and lets get Ernest to host one of your events.

|  INFORMATION SOCIETY 
 Hopefully the gas mask are't because of Noel's smoking, but what else would you expect in a photo from this legendary group? I'm glad they're back performing. I use to get so many calls for them and didn't know what to do. Come to think of it, by looking at the picture, I could've had anyone be Information Society... But, you know how we are about the Originals!!!
 
 
 |  
|  Stevie B  No doubt one of Freestyle's all time legends. Stevie is a one man show, a treat to the fans. I met Stevie many years ago at a club called Deco's in Orlando Florida and have booked many shows for him since. Currently he is Freestyle's ultimate Headliner, and you know what? He deserves it, works really hard and handles his business.
