invest in your product.
The focus of the tour is to perform 4 shows a week in targeted states and various cities performing at one all age
live performance venue, one skating rink, one school or recreation park, and one sports event a week in that
market.
We ask for your sponsorship of the tour as we take it from state to state starting. We are asking for a financial

4. Events Demographics
The lineup features exciting, positive hip hop and R&B entertainment for an audience of all ages from the young consumer to the conscious midlife consumer.
They are as follows:
Paradox implements his Brooklyn, NY rootsroots/Haitian roots and life experiences into
his music, which emits personal and truthful elements within his music. He focuses
on the relevant topics everyone can relate to; without the vulgarity commonly
associated with Hip Hop. His music has carried him to community events,
churches, prisons; as well as a class of Doctoral candidates at Yale University,
where he presented the culture and history of Hip Hop. Additional Paradox
information can be viewed at www.getparadox.com and
www.myspace.com/paradoxworld .
Utilizing Paradox’s talents and accomplishments in putting the tour together
we focused on targeting all things skating. Paradox is an avid vegetarian and
was once a well known skateboard guru. Highlighting his vast experience in
the skateboard industry and culminating the desire to make this a healthy
vibe/healthy life tour we chose to target family skating venues (both indoors
and outdoors) including roller skating , skateboard parks, ice skating events,
derby skating events, and basically anything thing that rolls on skates or ice).
events,
Paradox also has a single in rotation on B and C level radio stations in various
parts of the US. We will target those markets as we run the tour. Paradox is
no stranger to radio play as his label has a number of songs played on all levels
of radio in the past. He is no stranger to distribution either both instore and
electronically.
Adero, a Chicago native, has made great strides in his endeavor for
mainstream recognition. At the age of 14, he claimed the rights as the
youngest solo R&B artist to hit radio in 30 years. Along with radio media,
Adero has been on television and featured in several Hip Hop Teen
magazines. On the stage Adero has performed as the opening act for artists
such as Soulja Boy and Trey Songz, as well tour with major R&B artists
toured
such as Aaron Hall, Black Street, and Tony Toni Tone. This young teenager
has already made a name for himself and is increasing his wing span with
y
every new opportunity that arises. To follow Adero’s current events visit
www.aderoneely.com and www.myspace.com/aderoneely.
The uniqueness Adero brings on the tour is that he has heavy radio rotation on 3 major stations in the Chicago
market including B96 and Power 107.5. He has radio play in other markets across the U.S. He has been
showcased as a featured act on BET’s Blazin the Stage Show this past January. He continues to build a strong
fanbase through BET’s Ourstage web video show with his new video out which derives from his hit single
“Animated”.
5. Adero also has a whole theme surrounding his latest album/single
whole
“Animated”. He has a superhero cartoon developed and marketed as a
character for him. He has a new video out called “Animated” and v viewing his
merchandizing page on his website and myspace page you can see he has an
array of product to sell such as T shirts, ring tones, and even a superhero
T-shirts,
ring for the finger he markets. His management is in talks with Disney
about putting one of his songs in rotation.
Adero’s Dad “David E. Neely” is a Chicago Litigation AAttorney and former
Police Officer. He is also a motivational speaker and has accompanied Adero
on tour giving motivational speeches to high school and middle school teens
in the performance presentation.
Adero has also recently been endorsed by the Chicago Bulls and may on occasion have a “Bulls” team member

plan to target the radio market that Adero’s music is being played.
