CHICAGO, IL. (Chi-Roc Entertainment) - The idea of "Chi-Roc Entertainment" doesn't sit well with Faheem Shabazz, a hip-hop artist/ executive producer who goes by the name of "BigFa".

Faheem has been a part of the "Chi-Roc Hip Hop Nation" since he and some of his friends formed the organization back in 1985 on the far south side of Chicago. Twenty years later at age 37 he now serves as the group's president.
So when the Atlantic Recording artist called "Twista" started promoting his own music using the Chi-Rock name, Faheem wanted to let others know about it.

"I am the owner of the registered corporation "Chi-Rock" and also "Chi-Roc", which is documented by the Illinois Secretary of State," Faheem says. "This 'TWISTA' is tainting our legacy. My independent record company is called Chi-Rock Records."

Philip Swint aka "Pacman", who is an original member says the rapper "also has had past affiliation with our hip-hop nation to gain notoriety and cannot say that he didn't know that we existed."
"We've worked hard to build our treasured name. We're especially proud of the image we've cultivated as positive role models in the hip-hop community," Faheem says.
Chi-Roc is a shortened form of Chicago Rock Shabazz uses on his two websites, www.officialchi-rocknation.com and www.bigfa.com
Information: Faheem Shabazz (BigFa), 312-388-4183
