Critical Keys
What up. Hopefully you're getting ready to listen to the sounds of ckZ. We're two producers (Anthem & Ore), one reppin' the Chi, the other reppin' Portland.
We're bringing many styles of music, never laying claim to one genre, we're all over the place. From commercial rap, to r&b, to ballads, to pop/dance, we've got it all.
Right now we're going through some reinventions of ourselves, working on new projects, so our current roster is sort a few months old. But give us a listen, and if you like something, leave a message on the board or email us if you want a track.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Its not much to us as of yet. We've been working together for 2 years now, but we've been producing for 5 years separately. We're working on major changes to how we do this though, so watch out for it.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
No, we don't play live! I wouldn't trust my partner to do so!
Your musical influences
VA all the way! Timbaland and Neptunes. But definitely just into anything that sounds hot!
