Founder & CEO

Vinny Chiodo aka CenZo

Vinny Chiodo — known as CenZo (@BigBruddaV) — is a 20-year music industry veteran: artist turned ghostwriter, A&R specialist, executive producer, and manager. Illinois raised, based in Dallas, Texas. He is the CEO of Ontop Entertainment, the independent label he founded in 2007.

He has shared stages with Machine Gun Kelly, Wiz Khalifa, Meek Mill, Big Sean, Blackbear and many many more — and spent years deliberately behind the curtain, building other artists, writing records, and developing talent. Billboard-charting records — including the Billboard 200 — with Top 20 placements in multiple categories, a Top 5 on iTunes, and a #1 Christian rock single, across multiple genres.

He chose the shadows to build others. Now he's stepping into the light on his own terms — signing, writing, and developing the next generation at Ontop Entertainment.

Artist. Executive. Builder. Faith. Work. No shortcuts.
