Dirty South Entertainment was officially launched in the Spring of 2003 as the brainchild of former founder of Southern House Records, Toney ‘Montana’ Mosley.

Mosley, an avid lover of hip-hop/rap music, was the chief investor in the six man rap group Suthern Klick from his hometown of Albany, Georgia.

After enlisting the services of music industry veteran Sid ‘Uncle Jamz’ Johnson and promotions/marketing/retail expert Judy Jones and her company JJones Entertainment, Mosley served a the executive producer of the debut album by former Suthern Klick member Ole-E called IF THE STREETS COULD TALK. The album spawned such southern market radio favorites as “Livin’ Comfortable” and “We Country”, and sold over 15, 000 copies with limited distribution.

After taking a long hiatus, Mosley decided after his wife threw him a surprise birthday party in October of 2009, where Johnson and Jones were his surprise guests, that he wanted to, “Get back out there”.

After many conference calls with Johnson and Jones and soul-searching, the label was re-energized with the signings of BIG NOD (also a former member of the one-time Universal Records act Suthern Klick) and Ole-E was re-signed.

Johnson, a Grammy winner, and multi-RIAA platinum and gold album winner, with a list of credits that include: Babyface, Usher, Mariah Carey, Midnight Star, Monica, Plies and The Game to name a few, was brought on board to over see the creative aspect via his record production expertise, and Ms. Jones came on board to handle the marketing, promotions and distribution.

The trio will see their hard works come to light with the release of BIG NOD’s first single “Top Model”, which shipped to radio, record pools and clubs the second week of September, with his album, GRIND MODE set for October 19th release; and Ole-E’s first single “I Bet She’s Freaky” (featuring r&b singer Zay) shipping to outlets September 21st, and the album UP MY WAGER set for an October 26th release.

Music videos were filmed in Atlanta, Georgia in late September by The Spot Headquarters of Indianapolis with p.r. handled by Trea Davenport.
