tj@entertainmentmusicsite.com Big Daddy Kane
If the zeitgeist of late-'80s urban America could be represented in one individual, it most certainly would
be in Big Daddy Kane. Raised on the hardscrabble streets of Brooklyn, the Biz Markie cohort and lyricist
grew to become one of rap's most prodigious MCs and writers, with groundbreaking solo LPs (the first
two of them gold) and more than 30 hits plus commercial, soundtrack, and movie appearances (The
Meteor Man, Posse) to his credit.
With a smoothed-out R&B-flavored approach and messages including Afrocentric awareness and Muslim
reverence, Kane's music has left a deep impression. In many ways, he set the stage for the likes of Dre
and Snoop.
Some of his hits include "Raw," "Smooth Operator," "I Get the Job Done" and "Pimpin' Ain't Easy."In
the world of hip-hop, time races to an accelerated clock -- an emcee with two albums under his belt is
called a veteran, and some of the music's true "grandfathers" and "pioneers" haven't yet turned thirty --
which makes Big Daddy Kane's career -- now entering its eighth year -- all that more remarkable.
And as his album Daddy's Home proves, the Big Daddy still has mad skills on the microphone, the kind
that just get better with time. And still to this day, nobody has outdone his intense, high-speed rap style.
Daddy's Home features a wide range of today's dopest production talent, including D.J. Premier, Easy
Mo Bee, Da Rock, L.G., Kool T & Crush, and several tracks by Big Daddy himself.
The album opens with "Daddy's Home," a slow-tempo gangsta groove stomp through Kane's life story.
Born to move the crowd, raised in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, the rapper now returns to the microphone with
the urgency of a star player who's been sitting out the game for too long. "Brooklyn Style" picks up the
pace, and introduces Scoob Lover, an emcee who got his start as one of Kane's dancers back in the early
days. The track is a celebration of Kane's hood, and an affirmation of the power of simply being who you
are.
"In the P.J.'s," the first single from Daddy's Home, is a shout out to Kane's people still living in the
projects. It has an easy back-beat, over which Kane flows with his deep, leathery vocals, reminiscing and
looking forward to "peace and harmony," but adding that "damn, man, drama's just in my nature."
His lighthearted side is evident on tracks like "3 Forties & A Bottle of Moet," which, in the tradition of
the drunken style kung-fu masters, finds Kane proving that even when he's tipsy he can still rip it on the
mike. "Sex According to the Prince of Darkness" is, as its title suggests, the Big Daddy's declaration of
devotion to the fairer sex, and "Show & Prove" continues in the time-honored tradition of passing the
microphone, and features raps by a number of surprise guests, such as Ol' Dirty Bastard and Shyheim,
a.k.a. The Rugged Child (Wutang Clan). Elsewhere on Daddy's Home, Kane continues to push himself
into new terrain; on "W.G.O.N.R.S." he displays a deeper concern for social issues than ever before,
asking, "What's going on in our society?"
Kane's career began way back in 1984, when he met the legendary Biz Markie in front of McCrory's
department store in Brooklyn. It was through Markie that Kane met the man who would produce his first
hits, Marley Marl, as well as Roxanne Shante, who Kane would write and DJ for in 1986. Cold Chillin'
Records, which already included Markie and Shante on their artist roster, signed Kane in 1987 and
released the single "Raw." In 1988 he followed with the release of Long Live the Kane, which elevated
the standards of hip-hop rhyming with its hyper-speed vocals. It was the first single, "Raw," that
established Kane as the master of hardcore, speed-of light rapping.
Kane's sophomore effort, It's A Big Daddy Thing, yielded the hits "Smooth Operator" and "I Get the
Job Done," as well as "Pimpin' Ain't Easy," with Nice and Smooth. He followed with Taste of Chocolate,
featuring duets with Barry White, Malcolm X's daughter, Camilla Shabazz, and Dolemite. Next came
Prince of Darkness, which included contributions from Q-tip and Busta Rhymes, as well as a duet with
Kane's real-life brother Little Daddy Shane. Before releasing 1993's Looks Like A Job For..., Kane had
also found time to make cameos on Heavy D's "Don't Curse," Kool G Rap's "Number One With A
Bullet" and Public Enemy's "Burn Hollywood Burn" (with Ice Cube). He also contributed "'Nuff
Respect," one of the most outstanding tracks on the all-star Juice soundtrack. On top of all this, Kane
branched out into acting, co-starring in Mario Van Peebles' black western Posse and Robert Townsend's
film Meteor Man.
With Daddy's Home, Kane brings his career full circle, back to where it began. With a beat, a rhyme,
and a rapper named Big Daddy Kane. Take a listen to the album, and ask yourself, "What more do you
really need?"

Business Events
Corporate entertainers offer far more to your audience than you would think at first glance. At an intimate venue such
as a corporate VIP party or smaller meeting, a celebrity band or sports figure may be on stage just a few feet away
from the audience, an experience that will thrill your attendees. Motivational speakers are able to offer inspiration or
impart wisdom to your company's best asset: people. Comedians can help your attendees to unwind after a long day of
meetings or break the ice among strangers.

WE ARE BOOKING MEDIATORS. WE ARE NOT A FAN SITE

Many companies often host special corporate events to reward employees or improve relations with clients. Golf outings
followed by cocktail and dinner parties have become extremely popular in the corporate world. These events enable people
to socialize outside work, which builds team morale. In addition, people feel wanted when their companies pay for their food
and drinks.
These Special Corporate Events can be arranged to fit all budgets. Companies looking to save money can still show
appreciation for their employees by taking them to less expensive golf courses and reserving tables at reasonably priced
restaurants and catering halls. Moreover, companies that specialize in event planning can book prime entertainment at the
lowest costs possible. These party specialists know how to stretch money as far as it can go.
Even companies whose financial outlooks are bleak can and should still recognize employee accomplishments. Rewarding
employees for reaching certain quality or productivity goals helps keep them encouraged. People strive for excellence when
they know their efforts will receive praise. Companies that cannot afford to hand out substantial merit increases or bonuses
often host parties to keep their employees' spirits up even during tough times.
Special Corporate Events for Clients
Companies rely on their customers' loyalty in order to survive and flourish. Offering quality products and services remains
the most important aspect of business success. That being said, customers also want to work with people with whom they feel
comfortable and friendly. Few things improve the ease of doing business like taking clients out for special corporate events.
Professional planners can set up classy business affairs that enable salespeople and customer-relations specialists to build
friendships with clients.

Daddy Kan or other big name
talent for your Corporate
Event, Private Party,
Fundraiser or Convention, let
