“This is an exciting moment because inspired by the pandemic  I have been transforming from a career in nightlife and hospitality in philadelphia as a club manager and promoter into a hip hop artist . People know me in the city for opening down nightclub , the retox day party in the piazza , dapfest and curating and managing many  other events in Philly and bartending for years at Miss Tootsies on south street.  This is my first official sponsored showcase , what’s beautiful about it is I am creating this experience with my cousin Jrdn Aris who helped me to create my style of music, he’s an amazing producer , singer , rapper and songwriter hes the next kanye west . Audio Oxygen is Jrdn’s creation and I’m honored to be a part of it as his first artist,” stated Timmo Russ
