Rio - I'm So Fresh Feat E-40 & Tommy Redding.

It's time to work!

In The Studio with E-40 & Tommy Redding...

In order to be successful, you have to put in hard work, hard work, hard work, some more hard work, have good timing, preparation, and oh did I mention hard work. Oh yeah, that's just the first part. After all of the hard work, preparation and timing, you still have to have the opportunity!

Most of the time if you work hard enough, you will get the opportunity and that's where the preparation comes in. Of course you want to be prepared for your opportunity and the opportunity is now for Tommy Redding, Ivan S. Harris Photography and Ridiculous Entertainment.

This site is dedicated to erasing the "hype" and uncovering truth as well as the documentation of an artist with a dream trying to make it to the top.

Honestly, I've seen the first level of the mountain top and now I can truthfully say working with E-40 means there is no turning back.

For me as a photographer, shooting studio time with a pioneer rap artist such as E-40 is the epitome of what it means to be a lifestyle photographer.

For Tommy Redding as an R&B recording artist from California, working with A PIONEER California artist, means the beginning of the realization of a dream coming true.

I like the fact that two up and coming "artists" are working hard towards a goal all while working together focusing on the end result which is success!

Be on the look out, because the determination, drive and persistence won't stop. I learned from Diddy 10 years ago to not stop, so ISH can't stop and won't stop, un uh! ha!

All of The Above...

Trying to keep up with all the events in San Diego is like skate boarding on sand, almost impossible to do. What is interesting is, as a photographer, I atleast try to keep tabs on events that I have either not been to or actually peak my interest. I guess you could say I am a boss and can pick and choose what I want to shoot. Sounds cool, but it has to be like that or else I would be out every single night covering every event including the weekly local San Diego sensation taco tuesday.

Without being redundant, I try to cover events that have some type of substance meaning they are special events or one time occurences.

Labor Day, happens to be once a year so it holds some weight as it represents the last day of summer and the last official time you can wear white, but hey living in San Diego, its always warm which means you can always wear white. Well, don't tell that to Maino or he may just smack you while wearing his trademark black bandana...

Speaking of Maino, Ridiculous Entertainment and San Diego Native and Fan Favorite Show Magazine cover model Diznee hosted an event featuring Maino including a special performance with R and B singer Tommy Redding. To be real, Tommy Redding is becoming a sensation and is definitely someone to watch for.

To SSD, I have to report some people complained about the show saying it wasn't what they thought, but without selling dreams Maino only has three radio singles THAT he PERFORMED, so I don't know what more people could want. I guess firebreathing dragons and people suspended from 60 feet wires? Ha! Belo (the club where the performance was held) isn't THAT big.

Anyway,
