Simple and plain, I love hip-hop in almost all its forms. I came into hip-hop during the golden era of boom-bap - the mid-to-late'90s - and ever since Premier's beat on "Come Clean" got me interested in production, I've been collecting records and building beats. Wouldn't really say I have a 'signature' sound. When I sit down to make a beat, sometimes I start with the drums and work from there, and sometimes I just start with a sound and build on that.Have you performed in front of an audience?With a 2,000-strong record collection, I'm working my way slowly into DJing. Used to make mixtapes (literally, TAPES) for friends, so I can appreciate the skill in crafting a bangin' mix, as well as how it can make a dance floor blow up.
