D'Shawn Payton
The home of smooth beats, perfect for self reflection, or telling your story with passion.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I fell in love with hip hop when I heard A Tribe Called Quest, "The Low End Theory", and I started wanting to do music when I heard Redman on the EPMD song, "Head Bangaz"
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I performed on a lot of small stages, and one pretty big one. They were all special to me.
Your musical influences
See what I wrote in history. Tribe and Redman. I grew up in Queens NYC in the 80's and 90's.
What equipment do you use?
I use FL Studio to record and create stuff formally, but really I sue what I have. Sometimes I make beats on my phone, sometimes I use different programs, sometimes I use samples, sometimes I play and make everything.
Anything else?
