Get Paid Ent. is a self formed label started by a wise and determined group that started experimenting with music and rap at young ages. Based on the Eastside of Detroit, this group has come from the gutter of the streets and has truly and literally been through "Blood, Sweat and Tears" throughout their lives. Now with a full focus towards music, Get Paid Ent. is starting to make moves, creating buzzes in local neighborhoods and increasing local respect. The first out the gate is the member 8ighti8, the young, creative and unique rapper with a eye for quality and a mind set to be the best. He was raised in the Ravendale neighborhood and gained education in the DPS school system. With the loss of both his father and grandfather, Deon'Te Coleman became a man sooner than expected. He has been rapping since the age of 13 when he recorded his first song "500 Is The Code" with the now inactive group Flame Squad. Over a period of time, he has continued to stay poised, taking in advice and influence from fellow peers and local rappers. At the peak of 2008, Produkt Of Da Streetz (The Mixtape) was released and recieved positive reviews. Now with the lead single "Get Like Me" starting to make noise in the streets of Detroit and also other areas such as the suburbs and in Canada, the upcoming album, Produkt Of Da Streetz is in the making to be a high quality classic. The 20 year old MC is ready for all obstacles and road blocks, knowing that in order to make G.P.E. the next big thing, he has to be ready for whatever comes at him. "True Story...Real Life" as he would put it.

The story about the future up and coming R.A.B.S., is a story of survival and adversity. The story begins November 11, 1979. Born on Detroit's East Side at St. John Hospital on Morross and Mack, R.A.B.S. was no stranger to the struggle of the lower middle class. His parents struggled at low paying jobs to support their two sons, and try to provide a better life. Growing up in an environment filled with money problems and pain, R.A.B.S., born David Rabior witnessed his father and mother fight all the time about the things in life they didn't have. "My mother told me at a young age, Once money problems come in the front door, love goes out the window." said R.A.B.S. The troubles beame worse when R.A.B.S. saw his mother fall apart when she found out his father was having an affair with a coworker. "All my life I didn't want to believe it really happened." said R.A.B.S. His father always denied that the accusations were true. About the time R.A.B.S. turned six years old his father walked out on his wife, two sons, and newborn daughter. He was never around too much for the kids because of the constant fighting. "My mother used to flip on him everytime he would call or stop by." "I think thats why I had to grow up learning to hold my own.", "I had no influences except the streets." R.A.B.S. grew up having to learn the hard way. His mother tried to move her three kids away from the East Side neighborhood they lived in since their births. His mother moved them into Mt.Clemens to try and start fresh, around the time R.A.B.S. was thirteen years old. "Being from where I was from, I didn't fit in with the kids in my new hood." "I started realizing the potential to make money selling drugs to the richer kids in my new hood." , "I had sold lots of dope where I was from before, so I used my contacts to fire up my new hood." It wasn't long before R.A.B.S. started to make quite a name for himself in the Mt. Clemens dope game. In the summer of 1995 R.A.B.S. hooked up with a bigger dope dealer named "Mikey J". "He approached me because I was lighting up the hood, he wanted to partner up with me.", " I said fuck it son, lets get rich." Thats when it all began. A downward spiral of Guns, Drugs, Money, And strip clubs. " I started rapping at first when I got big into the dope game.", "I guess I just needed a way to vent my feelings." Some people say R.A.B.S has no concience. With the music that has come to light over the years I would disagree. "Me and Mikey J were real close at that time I though he was my best friend, I would've took a bullet for him." Tradgedy stuck in June of 2000. R.A.B.S. recieved a phone call from a girlfriend of his best friend. "She told me I had to get over to the crib because MJ was dying." , " I didn't beleive her but I rolled over there anyway." The close friend of R.A.B.S. lay near dead on the bedroom floor, from a drug overdose. " We got him to the hospital, but they couldn't save him.", "I still can't believe he's gone.","I guess I understand now why god takes people from you, but at the time I fell into a great depression." " I had to face his son, and family, I had to bury him." The death of a best friend can sometimes devistate a person. The death of R.A.B.S. best friend made his drug and alcohol abuse rise to it's peak level. "Thats when I really needed rap.", " I couldn't talk to people about my feelings, I just kept them all bottled up inside my own head."," I new I had to slow down or I would die, so I sold more and more dope hoping I would get caught and get a chance to change." In September of 2000 R.A.B.S. was arrested for Felony Delivery and Manufacturing charges. His bond was set at $500,000 or 10%. Facing a 10 year prison sentence R.A.B.S. sat in his cell writing more and more rhymes. "Thats when I knew I had a reason for living, hip hop is what saved me." R.A.B.S. plead down the charges in January of 2001 and was released with time served, Plus 3 years probation. " I decided then that if I was gonna be something, that time was now." Since that time R.A.B.S. has become a well known member of the Detroit hip hop game. Teamed up with one of the most talented producers in the scene "PRIMO of PRIMO MUZIC." R.A.B.S. has created one of the most notable and inspiring styles in the hip hop game today. " I couldn't capture the songs like I do without PRIMO."," He is in my opinion, the best producer I've heard in a long long time." R.A.B.S. the founding member of the predominant record lable in Mt. Clemens,"RYZE N SHYNE ENTERTAINMENT", has strong set goals that he and the rest of the lable follows. Love, loyalty, and, respect are at the forefront of what the label is about. There are only a few main goals that hold the focus of R.A.B.S as an artist. 1. Taking the feelings and emotions that all of us as human beings are faced with in this life, and putting those feelings to music. Taking what most people can't word,that they feel inside, and relaying that back to them so they understand they are not the only one faced with trials and tribulations. 2. Becoming a poet of the times to uplift, give hope, and understand that through a positive message, a whole generation can become a tool that can change the negative stereotype's placed upon the hip hop culture by the rest of society, which refuse to understand the lifestyle 3.Take the responsiblity of projecting an image that is suitable to guide the youthful listeners in a direction the glamorize's a different approach at life and aspiration. Project and image that is about more than material, and monetary gain. 4. Stay true to self as a person, and refuse to be something other than R.A.B.S. The core values that were in the beginning of it all stay the same. Only the times and situations very from day to day. In times of wealth or times of poverty, these goals are part of the personna that is R.A.B.S. 5. Honor my friends and family that stuck by my side through it all, and provide all needed to make life as easy as possible. Create opportunity in the buisness world for people with open minds to flourish and be successfull. 6. Retire a legend in the music industry as a rapper, producer, and songwriter.
