Coach Pr

Coach PR has successfully navigated his career as an executive and entrepreneur through music, radio, acting and investments which make him sought after by brands and celebrities alike. He began his successful career with Teamwork Music in 1999. A partnership between Teamwork Music and rapper 50 Cent in 2001 to promote 50's mixtape, led to a mega-deal between Eminem, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent. Teamwork helped to launch what became one of hip hop's premiere labels, G-Unit Records. Coach PR, with the title of Director of Promotions for G-Unit Records, took on the responsibility of spearheading some of the most innovative promotion techniques which led to the global recognition of 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo and Young Buck. Coach PR, with an affinity for sports (hence the name), added yet another caveat to his mounting list of credits when he was solicited to co-host Taking it to the Streets in 2004 along with DJ Whoo Kid for New York's number #1 Hip Hop and R&B radio station Hot 97. The overwhelming response to Coach PR's commentary from the listeners prompted his in-studio position at Shade 45's G-Unit Radio in 2004 on Sirius/XM Satellite Radio. Coach PR co-hosts the show alongside DJ Who Kidd for one of the most listened-to segments on Shade 45. It was the G-Unit Radio show on Shade 45 that led to yet another opportunity to co-host a radio show in 2006 on Hot 97 cleverly named POW Radio, which aired every Monday night. Having interviewed celebrities such as Donald Trump, Dan Akroyd, Samuel Jackson, Eminem, Bobby Brown, Outkast, Michael Irving, Heinz Ward, Floyd Mayweather, Dwayne Wade and Lamar Odom, Coach PR is recognized as a prominent figure within broadcast media. In its sixth year of on-air madness, the G-Unit Radio Show continues to reach close to 1 million listeners each weekend. As the co-host of these radio shows, Coach PR uses his knowledge of music, sports and his people skills to enlighten, inspire and entertain millions of listeners being branded the Sports Expert of Hip-Hop. Branded with the title of "Sports Expert", Coach PR was named the head sports writer and editor of POW Magazine. In addition to sports writer and editor of POW Magazine, Coach PR has participated as a panelist for Allan Houston's annual father and son weekend and also organized an annual celebrity sports weekend hosted in Atlanta, GA where he coaches various G-Unit teams throughout the weekend against other celebrity squads. This celebrity sports weekend also features the participation of Ludacris and Disturbing the Peace by highlighting sports events involving celebrities from the hip hop world as well as sports professionals - all the while promoting peace and civility to the hip hop world. As Coach PR finds continued success in hosting radio shows, appearing on MTV's Sucka Free, BET'S 106 and Park and hosting high school and college Ballin Out of Control basketball DVD's, Coach PR expanded his brand and star power even further by being featured in Ky-mani Marley's 2007 BET J Reality TV series "Livin the Life of a Marley". He then expanded into acting with a bit role in 50 Cent's 2008 movie release "Before I Self Destruct" and his recent role of as homeless man in the movie "Identical" starring Jonathan Togo (Miami CSI) which will be released in Spring 2011. With a successful resume of transitioning from music executive to celebrity radio host, to acting some would believe that 'Coach' has reached his pinnacle; this is the furthest from the truth. Coach PR added another title to his ever-expanding brand, entrepreneur. Having a flair for fine cuisine, he opened Burgandy's Soul Café in the heart of his native borough Queens. With an "A" rating from the City's Health Code...the restaurant continues to bring in droves of community neighbors, tourists and celebrities alike due to the ambiance and wide selection of fine food. Coach PR has a few more endeavors being finalized now, until such time he is focusing on continuing his brand of sports expert in Hip-Hop, celebrity radio host, actor and now, entrepreneur.
