Biography read about me, my style and what I'm all about.
During my 25 years in the record business, I have always had one foot in the street and the other in the corporate boardroom.
"One of the earliest rap entrepreneurs, the 44-year-old founder and Chairman of his current SRC (Street Records Corporation) label recognized the crossover potential of hip-hop at the very beginning as the originator of the Street Team concept of grass-roots marketing. That approach led him to form the groundbreaking Loud Records label, where he discovered and helped break such acts as Three 6 Mafia, Wu-Tang Clan, Big Pun, Raekwon and Xzibit. Bucking the current industry doldrums, Rifkind’s Universal-distributed SRC label has broken three artists in its first three years with the multi-platinum David Banner, Akon and Remy Ma "My head has never been in a better place," raves Rifkind. "I've teamed up with some incredible partners. You cant believe how energized I am."

How are you doin steve? My name is dcamp and I have a couple questions for ya! My raps have been processing since the 1st of july when the contest started! I am trying to promote my work for the contest but have nothing for users to listen to! Just curious if Im doing something wrong and maybe overlooking something or I just takes this long to upload! Ive heard some other users talking about a first round of judging soon and I dont want to miss out on my chance! If you could hit me back it would be greatly appreciated!!! God Bless and thank-you for your time Steve

Also i tried to email support about this and i havent recived a reply. ~much love and Respect~
GREAT THING YOU GOT GOIN ON HERE BOSS. ITS NICE TO SEE AN OWNER GET INVOLVED WITH STARVING ARTISTS AND ALLOW THEM TO FEATURE THEMSELVES.
WITH TODAYS ARTISTS GIVING ALL THEY GOT TO GET TO THE TOP THE NEED FOR MAJOR LABELS ARE SLOWLY SHRINKING. BUT EVERYONE KNOWS WE STILL NEED MAJOR DISTIBUTION OR WE SIT ON THE SHELVES ONLY IN LOCAL RECORD STORES.
IM TIRED OF SITTING ON THOSE SHELVES. IM LOOKIN FORWARD TO THIS CONTEST.
