Lock'Em Down Records
Cousins John "Dump" Bacon, Jr. and Dewanzel "Jazz" Singleton are Co-CEO's that formed Lockem Down Records in 2001. They started the company after being asked by their siblings to be supporters and financial backers for a performance that had lost its backers. They liked being behind the scenes working to get their family members a start in the music business.
While helping their family, they saw the pitfalls young people got into if they didn't have the right guidance and representation in the music industry. They saw it was difficult for the artist to concentrate on their musical performance and take care of the business side, too. They realized the difficulty of getting the exposure an artist needs, from helping with making contact with local deejays to booking to the local clubs. Dump and Jazz saw an opportunity to help the local talent in East St. Louis because has a wealth of talent that just needs the chance to show they are as good as St. Louis or any other city/region if given the chance.
Dump and Jazz are filling that need as an independent record label. They are currently working with several artists who are ready to drop singles this summer. Their artists vary in styles from "Clever" a rapper to "Zion" a unique Reggae artist from the Virgin Islands with his "Muffin Style". They are producers with their own studio, which is an advantage for their artists. They are also working with other independent labels as promoters.
Lockem Down Records is a fast growing independent label in the Midwest. They realize the music industry is watching and they are showcasing and representing East St. Louis' best artists.
