Syinnica “Syn-sational” is the term that is synonymous with the name Syinnica, OneFLO Entertainment’s leading man. As an extraordinary vocalist, songwriter, dancer, rapper, arranger, and producer, Syinnica undoubtedly has the music industry wondering, “What can’t he do”? Born March 22, 1983 on the south side of Chicago, Jeromy David Peterson, a.k.a. Syinnica, discovered at a very early age that he had an innate love for music, and by the time he reached junior high school, he knew that music would be a part of the journey of his life. While simultaneously developing his harmonizing, piano, and production skills, at the age of 16, he formed an R&B group, named EnTRUsioN. Though the group gained statewide popularity for its songs and performances, in June of 2005, Syinnica decided to disband the group in hopes of developing his own record label with his production partner, D’Andre Brooks. Although Syinnica is popularly known for his impeccable performances at private parties, schools, and Chicago area park districts, he is perhaps most renowned for his work as a music producer. Having produced tracks for such popular Chicago area artist as Parker, Nomadic, and Miss Brittany Monet, Syinnica was also responsible for the production of the track that took the popular female R&B group, Choycez, to the top as they won an appearance on the talent show Showtime at the Apollo. As the president and co-founder of OneFLO Entertainment, Syinnica accredits much of the success of his nine-year career to such musical influences as Michael Jackson, Diddy, Usher, and other popular artists that he studied as a child. Destined to become the next musical icon, when asked what his ultimate goal is, Syinnica assertively responds, “I want to put a big dent in the industry, a dent so big, the music industry won’t remember how it was without me.”

It was during this time that she was given the opportunity to perform as a female vocalist of the Chicago Children’s Choir, as well as an opening act at the Sears Center of Chicago for the Chicago Wolves. After completing four years of training and development at V.U., Miss Brittany Monet began to develop her abilities as a songwriter. She was soon discovered by OneFLO Entertainment’s co-founder and producer, D’andre Brooks, who began to further encourage and develop the musical prodigy forming within her. Inspired by such musical artist as Alicia Keys and Prince, Miss Brittany Monet has gone on to write such smash hits as the smooth ballad, “Amazing Me” and the soul stirring “Contemplating”.

With the assistance of his older brother, who was well established in the music industry, he was drawn to the hip-hop sound and culture. Nomadic’s taste in music evolved into an array of genres, from old school soul to alternative. This discovery of new music could no longer be lyrically regurgitated through his rap skills. He then decided to teach himself the craft of producing. Learning to produce opened many doors for Nomadic. By the age of fourteen, he sold over 1,000 units of his first self-recorded, self-produced album. Nomadic’s talent reaches beyond the recording studio. He is also a critically acclaimed performer.

However, lyrically, Parker compares herself to none other than the famous African American poet Langston Hughes. Her songs contain a poetic flare with a message for her community. As an entertainer, Parker is incomparable. She has performed throughout the country within various venues.
