Comment: ALASHUS a.k.a. The Chosen One The Nation’s Hottest New Teen Hip Hop Entertainer Once you meet 15 year old hip-hop sensation ALASHUS, you will immediately know why they call him The Chosen One.

He is making big moves towards a major record deal and will undoubtedly be a major entertainment force for years to come. ALASHUS has been paying his dues on the hip-hop scene. Based on his accomplishments, ALASHUS is undoubtedly one of the top unsigned teen hip-hop talents in the Nation. His high profile elite talent showcases, special guest performances, independent released CD, radio air play, and airing of his video has created a tremendous buzz and fan following throughout the Nation. His entertainment repertoire includes the triple-threat-total-package; he writes, produces tracks, and delivers unforgettable performances. Furthermore, he has that undeniable million-dollar corporation look that ladies young and old adore. ALASHUS most recently won the WPGC 95.5 urban radio station’s Pesi Project X Home Team Talent Contest.
