About Me

My dream of making beats started in the mid 90s. I bought my MPC in 2001 and began to learn the sometimes slow process of beat making. I've produced tracks for several Midwest artists including Rhyme University (my own group with my brother), J-Skills, Steddy P, John Spartan, Tripledisiac, Mr. Swindle, and more. I don't get a chance to make full songs as much as I'd like due to school. So, I created this page to at least post some new beats as I make them. Hope you enjoy. Don't be afraid to critique; I need that. PS. The band is looking for a PROTOOLS and MAC-G5 LAPTOP 'player'. If you're interested in trying out, please contact the hardcore composer.Bustrip LIVE @ Cherry Street Artisan

MU vs OU - Somethings Gotta Give

My unofficial interview on the state of HipHop
