“Confidence is from believing in yourself, and ambition is from your personal strength.”  These are the words spoken from a true go-getter by the name of Jasmin Jamison.  She was born in Olongapo, Philippines, January 6, 1986.  At six months, she moved to Philadelphia and then finally settled in Virginia Beach where she spent most of her life.  A self-proclaimed “Blasian,” she is mixed with Black and Filipino and embraces both sides which she claims define who she is.  She graduated from Old Dominion University in 2009 with a degree in Fashion Merchandising and a minor in Marketing.  Her drive for fashion and music comes from the desire of learning the art and breathing it as if it were her life.  She also gained passion for music from her brother and local rapper, Intalek, whom she claims “is her best friend and the reason why she loves hip-hop so much.”  Her main focus is to bring Virginia music to the forefront and stand tall in mainstream media and claim its mark as a force to be reckoned with.  “Virginia hip-hop is big...why not share it with the world and let it bring forth something spectacular?!”

It should be illegal to punish the Virginia rap game this hard. I metaphorically crown Yello the "Vigilante of VA." If you aren’t built for it, please proceed with caution.
