Uptown Entertainment Europe (UEE) and Kidd Russell have joined forces to extend Kidd Russell´s music to Europe and beyond. The "Dear Shooter" Video has made an impact in nearly every sector in America. The Fox Sports Network features his music for College football promotions and it has been added to Crime Prevention Projects across America.
Kidd Russell's ability reaches far from one genre of music. He has the ability to produce Rock, Hip-Hop, Rap and Pop music. We believe that Kidd and UEE will take Europe in a "Rush" within the next upcoming months.
The upcoming new album "THE DASH" is the title of Kidd Russell's sophomore album.  "THE DASH" it is a metaphor for life and the question Kidd raises in all his music is "what are you going to do with your dash?"  In his first album "UNTIED" (2006) he questioned the very meaning of his own dash.  Working a 9 to 5 job that left him un-satisfied, he turned to his passion for hip hop into a new career.  The success of his first album, featuring songs such as "After Work Drinks," "Suburban Anthropology" as well as "Paradise" has allowed him to open for such well established acts like Common, The Roots (twice), The Flobots, Mickey Avalon, Mr. Lif, GLC, Nappy Roots and many more.
Kidd Russell grew up outside Chicago, IL and he lived in as his friends say "more houses than Kidd had clean underwear."  This set the tempo for many long days on the road sleeping on random couches and beds while promoting his first album "UNTIED".  His second album, "THE DASH", is a mix of live band records and organically sampled records by West coast producers Michael Angelo (Portrait, Busta Rhymes, Snoop) and new comer Dust.
His first single "Dear Shooter" from "THE DASH" featuring Jaswel Race has already gained regional and national support.  With the recent release of his music video the sky is the limit for Kidd Russell.  His second single "Rush" was picked up by Fox Sports Network to help promote the 2008 season of College football. All this has been accomplished by a "self made" independent artist through determination and the passion for music. With all the hard work this new comer has put in, it's no wonder he wants an "After Work Drink."
