Description:
Whole World Entertainment was founded in 2011 by William " Young Breeze " Smith, Quinnon " Don Q " Thomas, and Anthony " Halo " Singleton. Its founders are ambitious go-getters with an entrepreneurial, self reliant approach to the music business. All three of these young men are seasoned recording artists and each bring their own brand of regional flavor and knowledge of this business to the table.... Young Breeze is no stranger to to being a self starter and is currently looking to buy into a separate franchise, and working closely with up and coming R&B artist and producer Brian Gibbs on developing Brian's label. Halo's industry background dates back to the fall of 2005 in the 757 area of Virginia where he was exposed to professional recording studios and the world of contract street promotions. At the age of 19 Halo was meeting established producers and famous recording artists at many of Virginia Beach's premiere 25 and over night clubs promoting albums for various labels such as Interscope, Jive, and Zomba. It was in Hampton, Virginia when Halo re-connected with childhood friend and now equal share holder Don Q. The two briefly pursued careers in street promotion through Medina Street Promotions before they decided to focus on making music full time. With Don Q providing the financial support Halo took to the studio and began work on several mixtapes and an album entitled Full Circle. Since then the trio have been hard at work developing the label and their own individual style of lyricism and business practices in order to provide fans with music from the heart that they can relate to.
