Jersey bred, Muslim, Bangladeshi. Loved music since childhood, especially rap, r&b, jazz, and anything with soul and virtuosity.
Started playing piano when I was 4, guitar when I was 11. Didn't start writing music until 13, when I started making beats on Garageband. After over a decade of composing, collaborating, and performing, I am now working out of Nada Media Group in Roselle Park, NJ as an in-house producer.
Yes, plenty of times. One of my most memorable shows was when my funk band opened up for Orgone at SOBs in NYC. We killed the set, and got an encore from the crowd. Also signed my first autograph!
