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.

Lil' Suzy

PrettyPoisonAlways 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"

AngelPink
No 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!

LisetteRed 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. 

 


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!

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.

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.

Willie Valentine

 

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.
