Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
THE YEAR WAS 2004, I DIDN'T KNOW THEN IT WAS THE GONNA BE THE START OF SOMETHING SPECIAL - SEMATIK INC!! IT STARTED WHEN WE STARTED MAKING SO MANY BEATS THAT WE COULDN'T GIVE THEM ALL AWAY SO ME AND TRAKPOT CO FOUNDED SEMATIK INC. WITH MYSELF (KALAMITY - FORMERLY R-DIZZLE) , TRAKPOT (FORMERLY CRACKPOT), PHD (AKA PRETTYBOY or K-MAN), S.O.G., EMPRA T & YUNG XZA WE CREATED SONGS THAT PEOPLE COULD IDENTIFY WITH. WHETHER IT WAS THROUGH PERSONAL EXPERIENCES OR WHAT HAPPENS IN EVERYDAY LIFE. WHATEVER WE DID WE MADE SURE IT WAS TRUE TO OURSELVES SO WE DIDN'T MAKE OURSELVES OUT TO BE ANYTHING WE WEREN'T. OUR FIRST ALBUM "2 B ANNOUNCED" GAINED A LOT OF RESPECT BOTH FOR MUSIC PRODUCTION AND VOCAL TALENT & CONTENT. CONSIDERING THE MAJORITY OF THE ALBUM WAS MADE IN A WEEK IT WAS A BIG ACHIEVEMENT. WITH TRAKPOT MAKING A NAME FOR HIMSELF DUE TO PREVIOUS PRODUCTION WORK WITH THE "MILITARY CRU", WE SOON BECAME KNOWN FOR OUR PRODUCTION STYLE. FAST FORWARD TO THE PRESENT DAY, AND WHAT ARE WE DOING NOW?? THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE! WE ARE STILL DOING THE SAME THING EXCEPT THE PRODUCTION SOUND CLEANER AND MORE PROFESSIONAL. WE ARE WORKING WITH OTHER TALENT IN BIRMINGHAM (YT, POIZON DON, JULBIRD, VADER, SCREAMA, SONY, WOOLIE P, SHACH, AND THE LIST IS CONTINUING TO GROW).
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
