From The Beginning
Project Riches Entertainment
Welcome to Project Riches Entertainment. The home of the best and most advanced teen artists, producers, and business people. Every person on the label is, at the moment, under 16! And they're all on the top of their game. 7 people, 1 dream, 1 record label full of the greatest artists you'll find in the teenage music industry.
Project Riches wasn't always the widespread company you see today, and it definatly didn't have a fanbase consisting of hundreds of people. Also, Project Riches wasn't always Project Riches. In the summer of 2008, a new dream in music led Darius Battle to give Deion Gill a call and ask "I was wondering, do you want to start a record label with me?" And with Deion not knowing what to expect, but having a nieve interest in the "easy life" of fame, he immediatly said yes to Darius' proposal. And without hesitation, the boys started Crossover Records.
After one night of "establishing" Crossover Records, Deion and Darius had already come up with 3 logos, 3 album names with covers, and a group name that would stick with them even to this day: D.B & D.G. In D.B & D.G's minds, Crossover Records was at the top of it's game and no one could stop them from reaching fame. Not even their crazy plans to build a $10,000 studio in Darius' basement.
After a long day of "hard work" and "producing," the newfound CEOs heard from a relative to research their company name to see if the name was already taken. And so they did. Unsuprisingly, the name had already been taken, by Ray Charles. The boys completely overlooked that Crossover Records was the name of a major record label run by one of the most famous musicians in the world. Little mistake right? Wrong.
So Deion and Darius decided to throw in the towel for a while and focus on other things: Deion focused on Rollerblading, and Darius focused on basketball. But this doesn't mean that they had given up on their dream of making music and being famous. They just took a break for a while until they got their minds straight. And after about 6 months of this, they were ready to start over, and this time, do things right.
On March 14th, 2009, Deion and Darius were finishing up on their church choir practice, when they were talking about Crossover Records. And after about and hour's worth of memories, they both looked at eachother and knew it was time to reinstate their differred dream and go for it full time. This time they thought long and hard about a name, and came up with the perfect name: Project Riches Entertainment. Remembering the big mistake they made the last time, The boys both researched the name for a good hour. Nothing was to be found with that name. They did it. They found the perfect name for them and the perfect name for ONLY them. So Deion wrote out a paragraph-long contract for them both to sign, and it happened: Project Riches Entertainment was now in permanent ink.
After a long year of hard work and preperation, Project Riches Entertainment is know the strong business you see today. Now with 6 artists on the label, they're music is more versitile, widespread, and more appealing to what ever type of person that it attracts. Project Riches is ready now, and so are D.B & D.G. They've worked hard and long on this, and now they're ready to take on the world along with A. Tibbz, Nasty J., Ky, This Is Brandon Jones, and the newest artist to be signed, Mickey. So get ready world!!! Project Riches Entertainment is coming for you...
