A little history: I have been producing music for over 20 years now. I guess that makes me somewhat of a vet. Because I'm also a mixing engineer, I know how to work with other engineers to get what they need to bring your song to life. I started off doing beats for my own needs. I then branched out to doing beats for other artists. Now I do both - beats for myself, and for other artists. If I had to describe my sound, I'm more on the emo side of things, whether Rap or R&B. No lie, I've been doing the 'OVO sound' before that was a thing. Kinda dope that it is now more widely accepted instead of just boom bap.
My goal: My primary goal is to make Christ-centered urban music. This can be done a variety of ways. Sometimes it is Christian Hip-Hop, and other times it is simply making good music that points to Truth.
How I got here:
I thank Jesus for the talent and guidance He has provided me. It has taken me years to find my sound and there is always something new to learn as I continue to work on my craft. I also received a lot of mentorship, guidance and encouragement from Darin Black (aka D.Black), a well established multi-platinum music producer out of L.A.
What I use : I primarily use Maschine, soft-synths, and a midi keyboard. I'm not a big sampling person at all. I tend to avoid it simply so I can avoid any copyright issues. (That means no issues for you too!)
