Why this name?

The first group I worked with called me AK cuz I made beats non-stop, rapid fire, back-2-back hotness...I'm the monster because, well, i'm a monster.

Do you play live?

No, I don't think anyone can really produce live, but I also play saxophone and piano, so i have performed internationally with that...New York, Dallas, Rome, Amsterdam...I've been places.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

The internet allows everyone to be heard, which makes it more difficult to be different, but if u do, u'll stand out a cut above the rest...like me.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

..........Do I really need 2 answer that? Most definitely, that's my dream.
