Bodog Music hip hop recording artist Bishop “The Gambling Man ” Brigante is preparing for his forthcoming debut, The Life of a Gambler, before setting out on a cross Canada tour with hip hop great Mobb Deep. The emcees launch their tour June 20 in Muskoka, Ontario.

“The Gambling Man” has just returned from LA, where he recorded a new track with famed urban vocalist Nate Dogg. While in California, Bishop hooked up with the infamous Snoop Dogg and laid down a track on the spot. Bishop is hard at work in the studio and is putting the finishing touches on his album. Bishop’s upcoming album, tentatively titled “The Value of a Hustle,” is set to be released on Bodog Music in the fall of 2007. Check out Bishop Brigante at Bodog Music or on his MySpace.

Poised and prepared for the upcoming Mobb Deep tour, Bishop’s career is gaining momentum and The Life of a Gambler could be the album that puts Toronto on the map in hip hop’s global expansion.

Brigante has seen much success on Much Music with his music videos “That’s The Way”, “6 Up” and “About 2 Change”, which won the Urban World Film Festival award for Best Video of the Year in New York City. After appearing on BET’s “106th & Park’s Freestyle Fridays” three weeks in a row, urban music greats learned his name and loved his game. His success on the show landed him the opening spot for several Canadian tours, including dates with Busta Rhymes of Aftermath Entertainment and G Unit member, Young Buck.
