I was born in Washington, D.C. and I grew up in a very eclectic household. I listened to everything from classical, to rock, to jazz, to R&B, etc. My favorite types of music are hip hop, trip hop, anything experimental, and anything that sounds different. I'm very open-minded when it comes to production, and will do anything my mood states. My influences are: DJ Premire, Pete Rock, Dr. Dre, Prince, Hi Tek, Timberland, Earth Wind & Fire, Roy Ayers, Miles Davis, Rakim, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, The Neptunes, Canibus, Just Blaze, 9th Wonder, KRS-ONE, Wu-Tang Clan, DJ Babu, Beat Junkies, EPMD, Alchemist, Biggie, Nas, Jay-Z, Common, Kanye West, ect...
