Label: The Luna Empire
Location:

Once every
generation, comes an artist that has it all. Producers,
street team, professional studio, ambition, and last but
not least, the talent it takes to become a superstar.
Hip-hop has evolved into a bicoastal and multicultural
movement. It has opened the doors to an arena for
all those who love the music. The Luna Empire is a
personification of all these traits. Peedo the
Empire’s first and only emcee, brings forth a lyrical
force only portrayed by the elite emcees in the
industry. |

This Dominican,
Bronx, New York native possesses the talent and the perfect
team of producers. Gato, head producer of the Luna
Empire, has been putting work into the hip-hop community for
years. He evolved from mix tape and party DJ to
arguably the best producer in Miami. Together they
established their own studio and were able to have every
underground hip-hop station in Miami playing their music.
Peedo gained his respect as an emcee years ago when he
entered a Tony Touch freestyle competition, which consisted
of 42 rappers. When the smoke cleared, Peedo was the
only one standing victorious. He continued his
onslaught for respect by battling rappers on the street and
constantly dropping songs on the underground radio stations
(Mixx 96.1, Blaze 104.7, WVUM 90.5, FIU’s 88.9, and WEDR
99.1 aka 99 Jamz).
In 1996, Fat Joe, who met Peedo on the notorious DJ Khaled
Show on Mixx 96, gave Peedo the opportunity to showcase his
talents on a forever classic freestyle featuring Big Pun,
Fat Joe, Cuban Linx, Tony Touch and of course, Peedo.
Realizing how much talent he truly possesses, alongside Gato,
they began their extensive, and relentless pursuit to
achieve mainstream success.
The Luna Empire recently released their first EP on their
independently owned record label Luna Empire Entertainment.
Now in 2003, Peedo and Gato have been able to record a song
with a living legend KRS One in which appeared on his
previous album “The Kristyle.” Also, in 2003 Peedo and
The Luna Empire were featured in the high rated show “The
Roof” on Mun2.
Currently, The Luna Empire is filming their first video in
New York and Miami.
