Hailing from Newport News, Virginia, aka “Bad Newz” The city of Caprices and Impalas…where it's a hard knock life by day and action by night… A city often overlooked for its breeding ground of fresh talent…meet Don Vega. VA's latest concoction of feel good / ride out music. In a city that's produced a versatile range of sounds and artists, Don Vega introduces a rare blend of Northern lyrical word play, encompassed over southern swag and blazing tracks!

Choosing the microphone as his outlet (as opposed to falling victim to the merciless Bad Newz streets) Don Vega caught the music bug at the tender age of 15. Putting pen to paper and letting his lyrical thoughts flow into what would later become a solid catalog of over 30 tracks. Soon enough as time progressed, so did his writing style.

Now in 2009, he's making it official as a debut artist pushing through the hyped up clutter in the music industry and dedicated to lasting for more than just the typical 15 minutes of industry fame.

While others are releasing singles (just meant to last the summer) using infectious bubble gum rhymes simply to hook airplay, Don Vega is focused on creating mature music gangsta enough for the Chevy's riding high yet subtle enough to woo the ladies.

Production has wrapped on the remix to the successful first single ("Tippy Toes") Blessing the remix track is music legend  and pioneer of the Go-Go sound, Big Tony of  Trouble Funk. This remix will take the single to new heights!

Just as the sun shines over Bad Newz, "Tippy Toes" is a single that shines with swagger, style, confidence and an international flavor and appeal rarely seen before.

This track connects with audiences on a global scale and is not limited to one particular cultural, regional or generational demographic. It appeals to people that are craving feel good music that's made for more than just the dance floor.

The “Tippy Toes” track is one of many other strong tracks from his forthcoming debut album, “Bearer of Bad Newz”, off of the Ill Chemistry Entertainment imprint. The “Tippy Toes” remix single is available on: ITunes, Rhapsody, Napster, Amazon, etc...
