It all started with two turntables, a mixer, some records, an old stereo receiver with an attached turntable & a tape deck, some beat up speakers, & mics for any mc's that wanted to freestyle. I'm from Rochester, New York, a.k.a. Roc City. I started off as the DJ for :Rugged Infantry: back in 93. It was K.L.S., Wisdom T. b.k.a. Big T., and myself(Bee OriginaL)........................................After being in several studios during the early to mid 90's, and watching other beatsmiths at work, I learned a few things about producing and realized that I wanted to make beats as well........................................................
..............I've been makin' beats since 1997 on the MPC 2000. It wasn't until spring 2000 that I was able to purchase my first MPC. I'm still using that same machine 8 years later by choice. I've been down with ASCAP since 2001. Over the years I've come to realize that I need to make music no matter what. Without it, I'd be incomplete..................................................
................................................LET ME CLEAR SOMETHING UP REAL QUICK.Many people think I'm the brotha flowin' on "I'mma Ride" and "What Should I Write." That's :Big T a.k.a. Big Tyme: from Next Level Entertainment (Formerly 1/3 of Rugged Infantry) spittin' on those tracks. I made the beats and that's it. I apologize for any confusion. I tried spittin' a long time ago and realized that I needed to stick to producing...................................................
