My name is ZuP... i am a producer out of Cleveland Ohio... i have been in love with music since I could remember.... I started writing and recording my own music in high school. I got sick of jacking other artists instrumentals, so I started creating my own beats. Thats when the love for producing was born...

Why this name?
My last name is Zupka, and people have been calling me Zup since I was in gradeschool.
Do you play live?
yes, i have performed and thrown many shows in Cleveland... i love it... we throw a charity show every December called "Hip-Hop Gives Back". We donate 100% of the money/ toys to Rainbow Babies and Children. The 1st year we threw the show we had DJ Drama there, and I actually won a "Hearts of Hope Award" for giving back to children.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet changes the music industry in a lot of ways... you can reach so many different types of people all across the globe, its great.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
yes of course.
Band History:
Started writing songs when I was 11... once I got to high school I taught myself how to record and mix songs. Once I graduated high school, I started getting into producing really heavy. Started producing for big local acts in Cleveland. I got nominated for a couple "Producer of the Year" awards from various different award shows, and ended up winning 2 so far.
Your influences?
Was a huge Neptunes fan... I "grew up" on 90s hip-hop, a lot of Timbaland influence. Love J.Dilla, Kanye West, Ratatat... any type of "out of the box" type sh*** is what I find really dope.
Favorite spot?
Vegas was the dopest place on earth.... need to go back soon
Equipment used:
Triton Le and ACID pro 4
