my buddy Russell, recently made this commercial with Billy Marks and he thinks i should let everyone see it.. here ya go
theres a interesting story behind the commercial itself.. see. Russell called me a few nights prior, looking for Billy Marks contact info. i’d asked him what for, and he explained the situation. personally, i dont “know” Billy. but i do KNOW, they dont call me “hustlemania” for nuh’tin. so, i told Russell(verbatim), “okay.. i can get you the number in less than 10 minutes, but i want some money outta it. if yall gettin paid, and im supplying the info, i want a cut..(i asked for a measily, $250)”. so here we go last week, and on vacation i get Russells email with the commercial. first thing i ask, “wheres my moneys..”. Russell thought i was kidding(?). a argument ensued. but in the end- we squashed it, and im gettin my dough. the lesson here. piFF dont play bout his money.. nice commercial Russ, and im glad i could help make it happen. anybody else need some info, hollatchaboi..

AM Radio is currently developing a project in partnership with SCION where we’re
transforming a chic 4 floor townhouse into a lifestyle gallery/residence by fusing original art and multi media elements.
LOCATION, which will be open to the public starting Saturday March 22 through Friday April 18 in the distinguished area of Mount Vernon at 17 West Chase St. in Baltimore, MD, will host six events along with the gallery being open three days during the week.
Join us again this Saturday April 5, from 5pm-11pm, at LOCATION as we continue
with “Money Earnin’ Mt. Vernon” (named after the area where the gallery is located).
The evening will feature specially invited bands and DJs, including DJ YZO and
AM Radio’s own DJ 2-Tone Jones. Complimentary beverages, courtesy of Heineken, Red Bull, Vitamin Water, and a Chardonnay and Riesling by Robert Mondavi Private Selection.
