What is your birthday ? January 28th You're one of the hardest working brothers out, how many businesses do you have? I have Glamour Salon Spa Boutique in which I partnered with my sister LuLu who is the lead partner in that vision. That is her passion. Also, I am an author and the owner of Garsone Productions. What is Wisdom Speeks? Wisdom Speeks is my artists aka Whop and we host a weekly showcase at Levi ‘s in Clinton. It’s the fly guy theme. What is the fly guy theme? It’s the tip of the spear for a screenplay and possible book in the near future. What is Garsone Productions? I started Garsone in 1991 as a small party company throwing cabarets, which gradually mushroomed into an event promo company by 2000. It had become a full fledged events and promotions company. I became a premiere promoter in the newly rising D.C. rap music industry. I was bringing artist from all over to D.C .to perform. It was very difficult Infusing rap and trying to penetrate the strong go-go culture especially with Whop-n-Em. Our culture was not ready! It was go-go or nothing. I guess you can say that I was ahead of my time because now D.C. has 10,000 rappers. How long have you been managing Whop? I have been managing Whop since 1997. After a couple years we knew we needed a label, so 1999 under Whop’s own label Pleasant House, “Welcome To The District” was the first release under that label. I was the manager and the promoter.
