Coming in at #15 is our very own TREZURE EMPRESS. Trezure is a singer, song-writer and philanthropist. She teaches by day, and takes the industry by storm at night! Check her out in her own words:

I’m so dope I’m afraid of myself sometimes… I’m a singer, songwriter, diaspora music educator & event producer. This year is starting off great! My students sang in Portuguese for Mayor Bloomberg on inauguration day (jan 1st), I’m opening for Teedra Moses and Van Hunt in February. I’m currently campaigning with Kampe Ansam coalition to raise $$ for relief of Haitian survivors w/ the YELE  foundation. I will record my first album this year and take my Empire very far in 2010.

Well, there you have it folks! I shot Trezure at my home-studio in Brooklyn. She was a joy to shoot. Good times were had by all. Check it:
