Known for his 2005 saxophone rendition of Mc Lytes 1989 hit “Cappuccino," hip hop jazz musician Victor Valente seals a deal with AMI Entertainment, making Victor the first indie hip hop jazz artist to license music to one of the largest major Hybrid Jukebox Network in the U.S. Since launching his publishing and music licensing company (Victor Valente Music Publishing) Victor has focused his efforts on music for advertising, TV, motion pictures, music production and remixing aside from his own album projects.
Starting his career in the early '80s as a hip hop d.j. Victor became popular as Supa Vee in the late '80s and early '90s for his mixed tapes. Victor Valente has done scratch work for artist such as Shine Head, Afrika Bambatta, Metaphysical and Chino XL. After retiring his technic 1200 turntables in the mid-90s Victor began studying saxophone. Without leaving his hip hop roots behind Victor later returned as a hip hop jazz artist with his 2005 release Off The Canvas on GMR Music.
