Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
TraxDaMental......I've been a radio dj for about 7yrs. in Houston, Indianapolis and a couple cities in Michigan. Before that, I was in the rap camp called The Grinda's, we had decent success around the midwest, but due to the "D" game, the group was broke up by the good ol'boys wit badges. I got into production about 2 years ago, since then I've honing my skillz as a composer/producer and artist. Personally, I'd rather make a hot beat to put somebody on, than tryin to flow on every track. My love for the game is in production. So if you need a beat, get at me."I got many styles, I got many styles". I'll keep this spot updated with hot new available tracks, but know, I would never put my best stuff out here. If you need work, let's make contact.
