Slimm Napoleon (SlimmBeatz)
(Slimm Napoleon) aka SlimmBeatz
I would say first and foremost I've been into music all my life which is all kinds of music not only hip hop my household growing up was very musically influential.. As an artist I've been recording for 12 years now here in my hometown Cincinnati,Ohio.. Napoleon Experience Productions is my production brand I been making beats for about six years now but I started out as a rapper back in 2006 me and my partner Young Bell started this duo together (Grind Daily Boyz) but at that time we started recording we was in the streets heavy doing what we did so we wasn't really paying the music no mind it was something fun that we loved doing so we made the music an that was back in the MySpace Era..
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes in Cincinnati my first show was at the mad frog downtown.. My best moment on stage is when I finally got over stage fright that moment I knew how it felt to capture a crowd of people attention the energy is out of this world crazy an not saying I bitch up the first time but I felt the hairs raise on my body and the goosebumps an it still didn't stop me from doing my thing at all.
