Dre’Quan Priest spent years dealing on the street, but his real ambition was always the music industry rather than the drug trade — and he’s since made that shift happen. He co-founded the record label Only Raw Records with Boobie Ike, and together they signed the viral duo Real Dimez — Bae-Luxe and Roxy — after an early collaboration with local rapper DWNPLY first started drawing real attention to the pair.
Dre’Quan continues booking acts through Boobie’s strip club as he pushes to expand further into Vice City’s wider music scene, moving comfortably between the legitimate entertainment business on paper and the criminal money that quietly keeps a lot of it funded underneath.
