Born in Chicago Illinois, I've been studying and growing in music since a young age. Performing as well as producing, my style reflects my world: Jazz injected with Funk, House, Drum and Bass as well as Rhythm and Blues. I'm also in the process of patenting my first musical invention, featured in my songs.  My roots consisted of playing in church and listening to Atlanta's Jazz 91.9 FM WCLK, eventually leading me to college, becoming part of the notorious FAMU Marching 100. I was the lead programmer and animator for Dreamlab Creative in my early years of college. In 2005, I founded and lead a live jam session in Florida titled Moonlit Mondays for years before returning to Atlanta. I've worked with numerous artists such as Chantae Cann, Young Jeezy, Cody Chesnutt, B.O.B and many others. I'm currently on a world tour with Janelle Monae. My upcoming LP will be an introduction to my approach to life and music, with my signature sound, featuring my new contraption.
