Nightlife Nation

The vast realm of the communications industry is always looking for a fresh voice, a fresh look; Whether its radio or TV, there is someone needed who can add the bang to the buck! Vonyetta is double that bang. She is universal and an all around player.

Vonyetta, originally born Adrien Lake, started in radio in 1999 when she was 14 years old. She started her journey on the Teen Forum Show. The show started out being a statewide syndicated show for South Carolina. Topics for the show included politics, teen issues, and more. In 2001, the show moved to a national syndication level. At the this point, Adrien’s young voice was being heard in seven states across the country. During Adrien’s senior year in high school, she got a chance to shadow Mike Love and Lori Mack on the Mike Love Morning Show which was broadcast across the 100,000 watt station, WWDM (The Big DM 101.3,) Columbia, SC.

The spark Mike Love saw in Adrien was brought forth when she was offered a job as a promotions technician at Innercity Broadcasting. Shortly before her hire, WHXT (Hot 103.9,) joined the Big DM jointly as sister stations. This created an awesome opportunity for Adrien. Adrien started to assist the promotions director with daily operations and continued to do so for 4 1/2 years.

In early 2008, Chris Connors, the program director for WHXT, gave Adrien the opportunity of a lifetime and thus Vonyetta was born. Chris allowed Vonyetta to provide entertainment updates to the listeners five days a week. Shortly after the entertainment updates started, Chris gave Vonyetta yet another opportunity that would place her career in flight mode. Her on-air slot came every Saturday night form 10PM – 1AM. It is called Saturday Night Live which included one of the hottest live mixes in Columbia.

In early 2009, through an already long lived member, DJ Prince Ice, Vonyetta was recommended to become a member of Hood Hard DJs. She was accepted with open arms.

Vonyetta has also now added to her long list of accomplishments the newest addition, Vonyetta’s Trendsetters. This elite group of ladies are also the official models of the Hood Hard Dj’s. The ladies model in performances for various artists, host parties, and much more.

Vonyetta has teamed up with one the hottest up and coming publicists, Selena Moore. The two have created Lake & Moore PR. It’s a marketing and public relations firm that provides a multitude of offerings to various types of clientele(www.lakeandmoorepr.com).

Vonyetta looks forward to taking off her television show, “The Industry: Welcome to My World.” It is a television show that shows the world how it is behind the scenes with radio, event coordination, issues with the trendsetters, the music industry, and much more. It is unlike any reality television show.

Vonyetta is diligently working on promoting herself in other areas to make a name for herself not only outside of radio, but outside of the state of South Carolina. It will be a matter of time before this time bomb of talent blows into a successful young woman
