The brain-child of CEO and Hampton's own, emcee Bayzhe, Extended Family Productions is a music company that features production work from Shaq Breeze, CJ Hames, and Bayzhe. Working with artists from 757, including Hampton's D Brigz and Jay Bird, Extended Family Productions is bringing VA homegrown hiphop by mixing volatile, hard-hitting beats with vicious and cutting lyrics.
Basically, we (Shaq, CJ, and Bayzhe) make beats for emcees to spit to. Right now, we're really trying to showcase talent from Hampton, VA.
Bayzhe is an emcee based out of Hampton, VA, and he performs live regularly in the 757 and surrounding areas of VA.
We listen to a lot of different stuff. It would be hard to name all of them because we take so much from each others influences that it allows us to build on the things we do well individually while tightening up our weaknesses. Anything is fair game; we never stop studying good music.
