Description:
Akilleon Sampson has an experience running a security business, and has had experience in the entertainment industry. He has been a member of two singing groups.
His first experience as an artist came in 1998 with an R&B group named VI
Positions a six member male group, where he sung bass and was the lead
songwriter. With VI Positions he was able to gain vital experience of the ins and
outs of the industry as an artist. VI Positions was signed to Grand Jury Records
and was disbanded before releasing an album. Later in 2015 AK put together
Reeplay, a male R&B group. Reeplay released a single entitled Sexy Sexy,
appeared on Foxhole Radio, and was the opening act for a comedy show at Black
Bike week in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. During this run as an artist, AK took
more interest in learning and navigating the business side of the industry. After
some creative differences, the group members of Reeplay went their separate
ways.
AK stepped away the music industry to run a security business and a trucking
company, yet music has always been the love of his life. After meeting Kayla, aka
Angelikk, and a few other artist the spark for music bloomed into a fiery inferno. Angelikk ‘s music was
forwarded to Picasso J Entertainment, a small independent label in Las Vegas.
Soon after she was signed to a three single one year deal. During that time
Angelikk has been managed and guided by AK and put in front of people that
helped her to secure grammy nominations in four categories without any funding,
