Valdon_ABG

They say 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger' and in the case of "VALDON", that statement couldn't ring more true. Growing up in Brownsville's Howard Houses Projects aka Barcelona was crucial in providing Valdon with valuable lessons in street education. Survival wasn't guaranteed when Valdon came up, obstacles put him in compromising positions but patience along with determination and persistency paid off. Self Confidence and charisma ooze from every word that slips off his tongue as he laces beats with his stories and directs the listener to appreciate his story, his experiences and his life. The odds that he has beaten have put Valdon ahead of a crowd that isn't really making much noise in the Mecca right now. The state the overall game is in right now reassures him that the game is his for the taking. His musical influences are the lifestyle that he has lived and saw lived by so many good dudes as he would put it. His love for music was never really embraced until he got swept where hustling and street living often takes you.

Valdon..."I never really knew how much love I had for music until I was upnorth, it was like being with a chick at a young age and calling her your girl but, never really knowing how much love you truly have for her and due to some obstacle you both get separated so your forced to forget about her but, you get a chance to see her again and the two of you start having another affair and that's when it hits you like damn....I always had love for this chick (music)...So for me it was like loving the talent to do music at a young age but then getting a little older and forgetting about it and how good I am at it and how much love I truly got for it but after being placed in a cell I fell back in love wit my first love "making music".

So his long term affair with music is now coming to frutation and he plans on hitting the game just as hard as he hit the streets. Valdon believes in himself period, and he has every right too. He spits the raw, harsh realities of his life, he romances the ladies with his boyish good looks and lyrics that make the girls hmmmm or rhyming for his street soldiers who can mirror their encounters with his. You can't help but to take notice to Valdon. With competition in the game being his main driving force to acquire superstardom he understands what makes him stand out from the pack.

Having studied and watched his comtempories rise quickly and fall just as fast, Valdon has taking time to master his writing and delivery, the elements upon which hip hop was built and have lately been too easily forgotten by the new generation of artists and mc's. Valdon first appeared on the rap scene with rap group "Pottersfield" which is ran by his cousin St. Laz. After establishing himself there with the group, Valdon decided to branch off and ventured out to create his own movement. He met up with then Ruff Ryders "Flashy" and after doing a collab with Flashy and his cousin "Wyldzy" entitled "You Aint Thug" the group HardWork ABG Gangstaz was formed between the trio. HardWork.stems from Flashy's HardWork Entertainment, and ABG Gangstaz...from Valdon's All Blaq Gangstaz. Valdon has also done music with Robby from singing group City High and has blessed mix tape worldwide.

Valdon is on the up and coming, and his dynamic production and vocals will continue to get around and put his name at the top of the game where he will stay for a long long time.
