About Official LiL Zane Profile THA RETURN N STORES NOW
Born in Yonkers, New York, but raised throughout Atlanta since the age of seven, Lil’ Zane grew up on both soul & rap. “The first song I ever learned was “Before I Let Go” by Frankie Beverly & Maze”, he recalls. “That was a song I used to dance to and just sing all day when I was younger.”
Zane Copeland Jr. or “Lil’ Zane” as he’s known to his legion of fans worldwide has announced his latest venture US Ent./Hollywood Fame Records, a new urban record label dedicated to artist development, producing television and film projects and product brand management relating to the urban/hip-hop genre. The Atlanta bred rapper and US Ent./Hollywood Fame Records cofounder will serve as CEO of the fledgling label while his business partner Brandon Lester will serve as co-CEO respectively. Entering in the music industry at the tender age of 10, Zane helped form the teen rap group Kronic, a venture that would eventually land him a guest spot on 112’s hit song, Anywhere. This breakout performance garnered him a contract with Priority Records and quickly led to a song on Ice Cube’s: Next Friday soundtrack released in 1999. From here, the blueprint was laid and Zane was ready to go on to do big things, starting with his critically acclaimed debut album Young World ; The Future which went on to make Lil’ Zane a double platinum artist by the age of 19. “I remember the drive and determination I had to get in this music business and I just went back to the basics,” recounts the diminutive entertainer, currently at work on his next album: Tha Return slated for a first quarter release. “I just want to continue making hits, count my blessings and continue building on the success I’ve had thus far and try to help other artist come up and realize their visions.” US Ent./Hollywood Fame Records also plans to produce television, film and video projects, acting being very close to Zane’s heart. Featured in the hit films Finding Forrester, Dr. Dolittle 2, The Fighting Temptations, and Motives, as well as, the film festival nominated After Autumn, Cuttin Da Mustard, The Sun Will Rise, A Day In The Life, and horror film, Skeletons In The Desert along with several television appearances such as, The Parkers Show, One on One, and Cold Case, Zane plans to develop projects with stories his fan base will identify with ensuring US Ent./Hollywood Fame Records a place as the next independent “mini-major” production company. “It feels good to have total creative control of my music,” explains the up and coming mogul. “It’s something every artist should strive towards. Especially with the way the music industry is looking right now.”
