Band History:
It all started when I was about 9 or 10, when my older brother would leave to go out or whatever I'd go though all of his cds and just listen to his Eazy E, 2 Pac, Biggie, Cube, Master P, cds for hours. Then I started making lil cassette tapes with me mixing on them...lol to this day he has no idea, but you know how cd players have the fast forward button and rewind just like a cassette right. Well I would pretty much record myself chopping and mixing my favorite songs. I'd tap the fast forward or rewind to bring the rhyme back or whatever. I think that basically sparked something inside of me but it wasn't until years later that I actually started making my own music, my own tracks. I just really have a passion for doing this. Like when I'm making a beat it's like I zone out when I'm hitting the pads or playing my keyboards, I'm not thinking about my rent being late, bills, baby mama drama or none of that its just me and my music . I also always wanted to be a rapper when I was younger, my older brother used to always say "Why you wanna rap? The producers is the ones who's makin the money. I still pursued being a rapper I take that back I still rapped for fun in hopes of someday blowin up. For the last maybe three years I haven't really even been on the mic except for maybe doing hooks or reference tracks. I'm focused on producing now though so I'm on dat up and coming hustle right now with the brain of a vet so it all good.
