I recently had the opportunity to shoot photos for a very interesting individual. Vito is a Miami HipHop phenom who’s exploded onto the scene from out of nowhere. I had never heard of him before, but when I was asked to shoot some promotional photos, I quickly learned he was not like all the other kids dreaming dreams of a rap superstar type lifestyle. Vito has amazing talent, is humble, wise, and is in the process of working his ass off to get his music to the masses. His album sampler is filled with great party tracks as well as soulful reflective tunes on the trials and tribulations of life. The music production is top notch, his words have meaning, and all elements of the music come together to create an interesting and enjoyable listening experience.

Above is one of my favorite shots from our photo session. If you’re interested in hearing some of Vito’s music, I highly recomend checking him out at his MySpace page. Vito is one guy you’ll be hearing a lot more from in the HipHop world.
