D A Z A R I O - B I O G R A P H Y Every once in a while, an artist comes along that cannot be easily defined or easily denied; Meet Dazario. Hip-Hop Artist, Actor, A&R, Businessman and all-around performer. "To see this man do what he does, the things he does on a stage is incredible..." Recalls a fan after a show at Club 151 in New York City. "...We've been around the world with this film, and everywhere we go, they fall in love with you..." stated by Brandon Finney, Hollywood Director and CEO of Finney Entertainment. "Your performance was a big reason why we won BEST ROMANTIC COMEDY at the biggest NY indy festival...never sell yourself short!" This is just the tip of the iceberg of the buzz this young man is generating; and after one listen to Dazario's signature sound, his star-power is clear. From the tough inner-city streets of Chicago, David "Dazario" Bjorlie, started off in the music industry and his life forever changed after he was fresh out of high school. Acquired by Sabrina Randall, the Midwest Regional Promotions Manager for major record labels Perspective, followed by Relativity Records, then Platinum Records and ultimately Perspective Records. "I worked closely with R&B Superstars Mint Condition, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Tyrese, Public Announcement, CeCe Penison, just a bunch of talented artists." He also added, "...Whenever the acts would come to town, it was our responsiblity to provide limo transportation, check them into hotels, taken them to and from venues, visit radio stations to do radio drops and promotions. Just about everything to make them comfortable. before, during and after promotional performances and appearances. I was pretty much getting an exclusive back stage peek into what the life of a Platinum selling artist is really like. It's surreal, but at the same time knowing it's about the work, about being a cog in this entertainment machine. It taught me a hell of a lot, and I have Sabrina to thank, but we both have the music industry to thank." After Sabrina decided to leave the industry to raise a family and spend more time with her new husband, Virgin Records Promotions Manager Steven Gill, Dazario went independent and began to build his independent clientelle one account at a time. A regular at Chicagos venues, retail stores and record pools, Dazario was met with an opportunity to fly to New York to meet with Jerroy Germaine, CEO of MyTown/Reiter/Universal and Publicist of Jamrock Public Relations in Yonkers, NY. After spitting a couple of bars, it was then that Dazario was offered his first Recording Contract as well as a position as the labels Promotions Manager. Unfortunately, Dazario's tenure was short-lived there due to corporate mismanagement, but he made such an impression on the CEO of a sister label, Crowded House/Viva Discos/Universal, Gwen Johnson immediately snagged Dazario and signed him as an A&R (Artists & Repertoire) where he as been at home ever since. As A&R, Dazario has made some crucial contributions to the success of the labels flagship artist Eric "Ace Denaro" McCullom who co-starred in the Q-Tip/Mary J Blige/Fat Joe musical film and BET favorite "Prison Song", where Ace Denaro also contributed a track to the films soundtrack. "Watchin my labelmates find success has been real exciting... but its my turn to show what im about as an artist." Dazario has been hitting the studio hard preparing to release his 20 track debut project entitled "Vendetta". Already creating a huge buzz online at places like Soundclick (5 singles released shot to #1) and Myspace (Over Half a million plays and a growing fanbase), Dazario sets out to stake his claim in the industry once and for all; with a flow all his own and the appeal of a superstar, he's prime to rise to the occasion. "Vendetta has been a long time coming... its was a monster but so are these streets... i been groomed 4 tha grind..." DAZARIO Quotes from The Album "Vendetta" "...take your problems over to Dr. Phil, while I take it to Trump, I'm 'bout to seal the deal..." "...if you choose to you'll lose, too...you and your crew is used to that bruise dude, its brutal. Resistance is futile..." "...instead of sayin that they made a mistake, they raided our neigborhoods then blamed it on Ray Nagin..." "...couldn't breathe when you walked in... couldn't believe what my eyes were seein'..." "...another brother gettin his braids did sittin in the shade with a can of pomade and a pickle jar of kool-aid..."
