Smokedout entertainment
My name is Aaron Eddy, I am twenty four years old, and owner of Smokedout Entertainment. In 1994 I was trying to become a music artist. People call me Smokey, a nickname that was given to me since I was young. My life started in the streets of Santurce, Puerto Rico. It was a real struggle growing up. My mother had nine children, money was tight and I was the second oldest. It made me feel the need to provide for my siblings and take care of my mother. I would stand on the block selling chocolates, I would clean shoes and boots, even clean glass to make a few bucks. At Christmas I would go around singing Christmas carols, tapping to sticks together to make a rhythm and the generous people would hand me money. GOD made me very thankful I was alive and I would do anything to make sure my family was taken care of.
Around the age of eleven I wanted to become a rap artist more than anything ! My inspiration was DJ Playero. I used to live next to his family and saw him come with different rappers to visit their house. I wanted to talk to him but I was too scared ! I started my dreams writing my own lyrics and doing shows at parties. I bought a karaoke machine to record my music with the little money that I could spare. When I first started to record I was young with the love for music, but was still struggling. Money was so tight that my home studio had low quality and no money to improve it. Wanting more for myself, I decided to move to Massachusetts in August 2002. I felt like I would have more of an opportunity in life if I left the Ghetto.
I came here from Puerto Rico after graduating high school. I was nineteen years old. I was scared and nervous. I barely knew any English and what I could speak wasn’t that great. I caught on quickly to the English language from listening to other people . When I moved to Massachusetts I stayed with my Aunt. But only after being there for two months she decided to kick me out. I thought we had a good trusting relationship. Suddenly everything changed and she told me I only had a week to be out of her house. Having no place to go, I had to live house to house. Desperate and depressed I moved over 14 times in 6 years and not all of the places were good areas. One of the places I lived in was a shed and didn’t have any contact with my family. I would cry and pray to GOD that everything would be alright. Nights were Long and Sad. I felt worried about my family and my future.
During this time I thought is was best to try and go back to College, but ends didn't meet studying architecture to finish my degree. Back home I studied three years of this subject. Still trying to survive and make ends meet, I went to hair school to bring in extra cash. Everyday I did side jobs, doing hair cuts and any other jobs that I could get to Pay my bills and form my future. Also I was trying to work on putting my home studio back together, fulfill my desire for music once again and the quality was my Goal ! !
My visions and dreams that I have had since a little boy over in Puerto Rico are now becoming a reality. I honestly can say I earned the State Of The Art Studio I have today. I am very grateful to all the blessings that have evloved. I contacted a couple of people one of them whom I have known since I was young and they are introducing me to the right people. His name is Juan ho. The Success Of SMOKEDOUT ENTERTAINMENT is my mission. I miss my Family and I want them here!
It took me months to come up with creative ideas for My Company. I designed Smokedout Entertainment for a new fresh look on music. I wanted to build a studio that is a variety of different cultures, something apart from any other Record Label. Reggaeton, Reggae, Hip Hop and R&B, all put together. I work twelve hours throughout the day, engineering beats and recording the future number one hits. I am working on being well known by millions of people ! ! As of right now I am aiming on promotion and handing out a mix tape. (PROMOTIONAL USE) A few other things that are in the works consists of an album that I will be taken to distribution agencies. I also started a Smokedout Clothing Line, hooded sweatshirts or t-shirts ( Male and Female t-shirts)
I named my company after my nickname and added a twist to it. What Smokedout means to me is something being HOT ! ! ! Like my music! Thanks Be to GOD ! ! ! ! ! I consider my beats and music to be “Smokedout” ! ! !
Smokedout’s newest project for this year will be to help the poor. The company will be raising money for charities that deal with the homeless to help them get off the streets. Also to provide food and clothes to families that are in need.
I am Smokedout Entertainment ! ! *SmokedoutEntertainment* was once my dream, now it's Reality.
Peace And Blessings to All
