ARTIST BIOGRAPHY: SHANGO

Shango is not only the name of the African god of war, but the moniker of a multi-talented musical force on the verge of making a major impact in the industry. Shango A.K.A. Ron Betts, is originally from Florida, though raised for the better part of his young life in rural North Carolina. Being of Haitian descent, Shango is a product of years of struggle in poverty, somehow always finding a way to rise above his circumstances and shine. Shango has nurtured a love for making music since he was able to talk and walk, having sang in the choir at his church from a young age, playing in the band in high school, and forming a rap group in the early years of hiphop as a kid. As stated by former producer Samson Malani of Tiki Entertainment, “Shango is unique, and when he spits that ragga, you can FEEL it, where he’s coming from.”
Currently, Shango is putting the finishing touches on his second independent album, titled “RUDEBOY”, and plans to release it in December 2008. Shango’s immediate plans are to embark on a promotional tour beginning in Honolulu, HI, in an effort to give his fans of taste of what they have so eagerly awaited since the initial announcements regarding “RUDEBOY” approximately a year ago.
