Fortress Entertainment

Underground NYC hip hop label founded in 1993 by producer Charlemagne, A&R director Vidal Goring, Raymond Lugo and Charlemagne's brother Randy. The label brought together some of the best hip hop talent of the early 1990s and in true underground fashion recorded most of its early releases in Vidal Goring's attic/sound studio. It is perhaps best known for serving as a launching pad for the artists who comprised the group Natural Elements.
