The FEAM Group is founded and lead by
CEO/President, Flash Rodriguez. Flash is a veteran of
the music and entertainment industry. Flash appeared in
his first magazine interview as a budding recording
artist, at the age of 14. As a recording artist, he
received his first radio airplay with a regional radio
single entitled So precise with a slice on Jaime
Records, at the age of 17. Flash then briefly
investigated the option of college.
After a short hiatus, Flash Rodriguez
built a studio in his home and began working with local
artists. This matured into a consulting position with
Universal Distribution. In late 2002, Flash Rodriguez
sat in the lobby of Sean Diddy Combs Bad Boy Records
for two weeks before being offered a position as an
intern in the radio & online promotions department
by Shawn Prez.
Though internship was a natural course of things at Bad
Boy Records, |
after just a fewweeks on the job Flash submitted a marketing proposal to Diddy regarding
an artist that was in the process of being dropped from
the label. This was exceedingly far outside of Flashs
realm of responsibilities and job description, it was
accepted personally by the big boss, Diddy. At this
point that Flash became a paid employee and began
contributing in multiple facets and projects at the
label, even serving as assistant for the MTV Special
Diddy Runs The City, a documentary chronicling Mr.
Combs running of the New York Marathon.
Flash also began listening to demos
submitted at the labels then Times Square office. In
2004, while still an employee of Bad Boy Records, Flash
began his own multi-faceted
entertainment company, The FEAM Group, and signed his first artist, Nina Vega.
Flash
left Bad Boy to partake in his new venture, The FEAM
Group and to serve as Director of Artist and Repertoire
for InYerFace Records, a label of Sony Music Studios. At
InYerFace Records, Flash Rodriguez took part in the
development of current, Island |
Def
Jam recording artist and Rock prodigy,Laura Warshauer.
The
reputation of Flash Rodriguez grew quickly within the
star-filled halls of Sony Music Studios as both an
artist and repertoire representative and as an authority
in artist development. In little to no time Flash
Rodriguez was consulting on numerous industry projects
and with some of the industry’s most successful labels,
producers, and artists.
In 2006, Flash Records secured radio airplay for The
FEAM Group’s first artist, Nina Vega, with her single “I
wanna know ya like that”, on the nationally syndicated
Wendy Williams Show. The record was produced by KNS, who
have produced for superstars Britney Spears, 3LW, 50
Cent and many more. This radio play and consistent
rotation on air was the indoctrination of Flash
Rodriguez and The FEAM Group and subsidiaries, Flash
Records and FAM Management.
