Born in Georgia, raised in Texas, i have been in a wheelchair all of my life. i use my struggles to produce some the most original and creative beats out there. i started using ACID in Feb. 2005, and have use Music Generator 2 (playstation 2) for the past 3 years to create beats that make you want to dance, relax, travel, pray, love and hate.
Why this name?
I was on a shoe website that let you to put your name on your shoe. The primary color of the show was "platinum". i put my first initial in from of it and thus Bplatinum was born. Later came an actul mean and slogan: "Why be gold when you can Bplatnum?" which means to never settle for "just being good" There always room for improvement
Do you play live?
The closest thing to "playing live" that I've done is creating beats in front of my sister and/or cousins. It's pretty cool to see there reaction.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet allows for greater promotion to a wider and more diverse audience, however it also allowes for more theft
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
yes, but if it takes too long I will do like Jay-Z, and create own label
