Alright, here goes. I been listenin to rap/hip-hop/R&B since i was basically a seed. I remeber when i was a kid and watchin Run DMC one video and then seein Michael Jackson on the next and thinkin he was a girl. I was about 2, so yeah I guess i was basically a seed. I really started gettin into gangster rap when Tha Row took off. The rest is history. Besides Tha Row, i was feelin the Wu and Nas as well. How many 3rd graders you know bumpin the W? HAHAHave you performed in front of an audience?I play a little bit. Basically just by ear though. I do all my ish in my bedroom with minimal equipment, but i make it work. And yes, i love it. But, the downside, it's very hard to keep a female around when all you wanna do is music........and sex. HAHA

Any of these producer's i've listed are usually more dope than not. There's also like a butt-load of R&B producer's that i really don't know of. They just got tight, melodic type $hits, but there's too many to name.What equipment do you use?
Not much, but....I use Sonic Foundry Sound Forge (ALOT!!!), Roland Fantom S-88 (about to get an Alsesis Ion to get those sick Mob Shit basslines. ya dig?) Cool Edit Pro, I got a talk box, but it's not up an runnin yet (Can't WAIT!!!!). Ok, i'm not proud to say it but i do use Fruity Loops 5 (which i like to call Fruity Poops 5) to senquence all of my beatz. So, yes, i'm not a pro...yet.Anything else?
