HISTORY:
Tony Deleon a.k.a Chance
Born, raised and now residing in the Bronx; Chance a graduate of Cardinal Hayes High School let’s you know that not only is he street smart, he is also book smart maintaining a 3.0 average upon the completion of his academics. Growing up with a rough childhood environment he learned how to definitely take a chance. Raised by his mother whom worked two jobs to support him, he saw no choice but to take to the streets to sell drugs. He would write lyrics as as a way to cope with his dilemma, however when he realized drugs were just a destructive device rather than helping him out of his dilemma, he made a major decision. He decided to turn his life around and took the real chance to change, especially taking the chance on himself and with his music, at the age of 13 years old. Hence the name Chance.
Angel Melo a.k.a Bags
A graduate of Graphic Communication Arts High School was no academic slouch either. (Graduating with a 3.5 Average) Born and raised in Queens by both his parents; they tried to give him a normal life. However in the mean streets of NYC, you can’t help but to observe. So that’s just what Bags did, he observed and wrote about what he was surrounded by. At the age of 13 he felt this pen, pad, and mental notations were his ticket out of the destructive environments which surrounded him.
An event occurred in 1998, where these two young men met each other and these two artists with the same goals and intentions; wanting to improve their current situations and wanting to make music that their already established fan base can listen too. These artists embarked on a mission to make a definitive name for themselves. Through several competitions and guest appearances on underground independent mix tapes they soon realized they were becoming very successful as lyricists. With over 6,000 units sold they continued to make a name for themselves independently and collectively in the entertainment industry.
Shortly after the coming together of these artists in their entertainment exploits, the two young men met with two other friends Joevanny Santos and Johnathan Valdez, who became their management team and later introduced them to Mr. Jose Lopez CEO of Starworks Productions Inc., who established with them The CrossOva Artist Management and Recordings LLP. Soon afterward The CrossOva Family while pursuing the music industry decided to also pursue helping other youth to escape the similar situations of being caught in a vicious circle of destructive atmospheres through music and art and currently developing a vision of The CrossOva Foundation.

HISTORY:
Starworks Productions Inc. was established in 1984 by a collection of youth and young performing artists from disadvantaged neighborhoods, who out of a need to be recognized for their creativity, and having a lack of opportunities, decided to create their own opportunities for themselves and for all youth by pooling what little resources they had, and teaching each other and sharing different skills and talents they had learned. Through this sharing they felt that they sharpened their own skills and had discovered new talents they didn't realize they had. These youth had decided to do this on a grand scale collaborating, teaching and sharing new and old ideas in all types of subjects. In a matter of six weeks, they had over 30 youths meeting together on a regular basis to practice and learn different aspects of the performing arts and other from one another and these meetings expanded to include all types of skills in various fields and disciplines such as how to prepare for job interview to learning computers. This group later became familiar to the public as "Starworks" (defining the dedication and the levels of excellence they wanted to achieve). The young people afterwards wanted to publicly display their newly acquired skills to the public, by entering showcases and later creating their own competition and showcase known as "Starbound". In this showcase they sharpened their skills against other youth whom they would invite from all over the city and the competition categories included music, art, fashion, writing, dance, etc. “Starbound” was created to be the first vehicle of Starworks to not only showcase talent, but to advocate the message to the world of the urgency of the lack of opportunities that inner city kids have and provide an ongoing vehicle of opportunities in order to make entire communities thrive on many levels whether those involved are in the performing arts or not.
MISSION STATEMENT:
To bring the entertainment world, private industries, investors and other industries into the communities to give disadvantaged youth and adults opportunities to empower themselves through the arts and other vehicles.
GOALS:
To create a complex that would encompass the creative energy of young people and create a constant interaction between to the community and private industries to cultivate the progress of the communities and especially its children so they both may thrive. This complex would be called "PROJECT H.O.M.E." (House of Mental Edification/Cultural, Arts, & Social Awareness) This multi-faceted building would be dedicated to serving disadvantaged youth and adults who aspire to be recording artists, performing artists, or just successful in any field of their choosing and who wish to get off the streets and into working on attaining their dreams.
1) To give back to the community through programs that will provide tools and vehicles for the community to thrive, on many levels such as educationally, socially, financially, etc.
2) To give youth alternatives to negative elements of the streets though music and the arts.
3) To give young performing and non-performing artists in the community the opportunity to be recognized for their talents and to put them to good use.
