Artist

Doug Ellison, A.K.A. “Biggs”, is the CEO of Four Kings Productions, a music production and management company he founded in 2003. He is known as the manager for the late Coke Boyz-associated rapper Chinx, guiding him through his last release in his lifetime, the mixtape Cocaine Riot 4 under Maybach Music and his debut album, Welcome to JFK, which was posthumously released in August 2015. This was followed up by Legends Never Die in 2016.

Biggs is also associated with another act he manages, singer-songwriter Chrisette Michelle. Ellison met Chrisette at their alum, Five Towns College, in Dix Hills, New York. Ellison managed her through a deal with Island Def Jam in 2006, leading to her debut album I Am in 2007. Their relationship eventually soured, leading Chrisette to sue Ellison for embezzling money from her contract and Ellison countersuing for breach of contract. On the bright side, however, not only did the two drop their suits and reunite, but announced their engagement in late 2015. Ellison continues to manage Chrisette’s musical output, including 2013’s Better, her last major-label release before she went independent and created her own label, Rich Hipster. After 3 years of engagement, the pair finally married in early 2018.

Ellison’s youth as a foster child in New York is his source of “strong sense of self and self-reliance”. Prior to attending Five Towns, he started at Queensborough Community College and later graduated from Full Sail University with a MBA.
