Dion's first foray into the industry was via the R&B group Jonz who released a record in 1999 henceforth gaining notoriety on BET's "The Way We Do It" but it wasn't until being brought on board via an audition with Cincinnati-based producer Hi-Tek sponsored by Def Jam and MCA records, that solidified his position as one of Hip Hop's go to crooners. Shortly thereafter Dion gained the attention of West Coast Hip Hop pioneer Dr. Dre who invited him to work with The Game for Game's debut album The Documentary.
