Shane Dean is a native of “Money Earnin” Mount Vernon, New York now residing in Vancouver, Canada and Los Angeles. His star-studded city produced such names as Denzel Washington, Sean “Puffy” Combs, Dick Clark, Art Carney, Pete Rock, Leon, Heavy D and Real Husbands of Hollywood star, JB Smoove.
Throughout his career in the entertainment industry, Dean has put together an arsenal of creative tools as an actor, producer, writer, director, humanitarian and MC. Dubbed "America's Triple Threat” to say the least by Violator's DJ Sabotage, as a renaissance artist for all of the hats that he wears creates a unique package. The industry has shown the dynamic parallel that lies within film and music. Any rapper that has had any real music success has been catapulted into film because of their marketability. Shane Dean defines that success on both ends of the film and music industry as a Prophet in the booth and a Thespian on the screen. His current film, The Saints of Mt. Christopher, which he directs, produces and co-stars in with Tom Sizemore (Black Hawk Down) and Clifton Powell (Ray) became one of the top independent movies of it's kind. He gained his first real recognition for his portrayal of a fierce hustler and pimp, Lance, in the underground classic 'Sugar Valentine' starring Jean Claude LaMarre (Malcolm X) Glenn Plummer (Menace To Society) and Gabriel Casseus (Fallen).
He has a very imaginative and successful management team that understands how to brand an artist such as a Shane Dean with his own merchandising in an Ice'd Out Jump Rope for his single with the baddest female rapper of Miami in Trina, to a water deal with a striving health franchise, a humanitarian campaign entitled The Stop The Violence, Save Our Future Project combatting gun violence in America and a Water Ambassadorship to Ghana as the Co-Founder of the Thirst For Water mission.
He is the Ceo and Founder of film and music production company, Bases Loaded Entertainment. Dean is now in production on the pilot for new reality show "Flippin Da Hood" and also in development on a few film and television projects.
With a diverse brand of flows on the mic and various faces in soon to be announced upcoming pictures, Dean is promised to be one of Hollywood's rising stars.
