When hip-hop music emerged from the underground, many thought it was a fleeting fad, one whose popularity would not stand the test of time. Now many years later, hip-hop culture reigns supreme, permeating society on many levels from music to fashion to films. At the center of this ongoing phenomenon is entrepreneur Damon Dash.
Dash's reign stands supreme throughout the entertainment world. His music empire currently consists of: Sizzla, Rell, Grafh, Nicole Wray, and Jasmine Villegas.
Jasmine Villegas is one of the youngest and most talented R & B/ Pop singers of this decade. Originally from San Jose California, at the young age of eleven, Jasmine moved to Los Angeles to pursue her dreams in the entertainment business. It was there where she met music mogul Damon Dash.
I would only want to affiliate myself with someone that will make history I truly believe in my heart, Jasmine Villegas will make history. Damon Dash
Having never taken a single voice lesson in her life, it is hard to believe that Jasmine has developed an amazingly mature soulful tone, combined with a controlled and dynamic upper register. Vocally apparent, Jasmine has been compared to Alicia Keys and Whitney Houston. You can hear samples of her incredible range and sweet, playful personality in her original tracks like Hot Like Fire, Ill Be Around, and Think Big.
When I met Jasmine for the first time I fell in love with this girl she has a warm, charming charisma unlike Ive never seen, the soul of an angel and beauty of a princess!! The fact that she has unbelievable vocals and unmatched energy is just the icing on the cake hands down shes a SUPERSTAR!!! DJ Felli Fel
