NOLAsoulchild...My dream is to build MUSIC & MEdia GROUP into an empire...Yeah, I know, with the economy being so bad and less & less music being bought, I still do see a future in artist development, management, film & publishing.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
MUSIC & MEdia GROUP was an idea I've had for a couple of years. It is currently a music and video production team, but will eventually branch off into animation, clothing and film.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I used to play drums in elementary and independantly throughout my younger years. I loved it, but I'm still learning.
Your musical influences
My musical influences come from all the music I was exposed to as a kid, but as far as production....DJ Precise, Quincy Jones, George Clinton, Dr. Dre, DeVante Swing, R. Kelly, DJ Quik, Daz Dillinger, Chris Stokes and Warren G are the one's who influenced me.
Honorable mentions are: Raphael Saadiq, Jazze Pha, Manny Fresh, PRINCE, Battlecat, Kanye West, Timbaland and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
I'm greatly influenced by the classic R&B of the 60's - 80's, not really crazy about the current rap scene, love Pop, infatuated with Rock and have beautiful relationship with Alternative.
What equipment do you use?
"It don't matter what equipment you use, it's the (talent)." - Dr. Dre, 1996 - It's true, yet I haven't made a track that came out the way I exactly wanted to yet. The tracks that are posted lack certain things I just haven't been able to add to them...YET.
Anything else?
Please check out my Myspace page for more info and samples.
I've had several e-mails wondering why I don't have the paid licence option available, well...I really do appreciate all the love I've gotten so far and it means alot, but this a business. Make it simple on yourself and just holla at me...
Which brings into question another matter, I DO NOT USE WATERMARKS BECAUSE ALL MY MUSIC IS COPYRIGHTED BEFORE I POST, either on Soundclick or Myspace! I have a million more beats, but only a certain few I've gotten copyrighted before others. Like I said, this is a business and by no means am I an entertainment lawyer, but I've done quite a bit of homework and I've got the grades to prove it!!
