Born and raised on Chicago's West Side (L-Town, 400 Block) 21Pillz's ambition for music was evident since he was able to walk. "My family would tell me how, at two years old, I would grab some pots and pans, clear everybody out the way and start bamimg on 'em like some bongoes!" Pillz got very familiar with the recording scene in his youth. His parents, both aspiring singers and prducers, were in and out the studio since he was born. By age 7 the producer in his heart came alive. "I use to love Kriss Kross and when I got they tape, Jermaine Dupri's name was all in the credits. I asked my pops why and he was like Jermaine the one who creates the music and make sure the song sounds good and right then I knew what i wanted to do." One day after his dad was done producng a session, Pillz asked if he can make a beat. "After Pierre showed me what to do and the track was finished, I had this feeling in my body like I can do this forever." "Growing up I never thought I would see 18 so 21 was far fetched. So to me thats a lucky number. I came up with Pillz because musically I felt I was needed and somthing you cant stop listening to; addictive." 21Pillz was born With the money he made from his hustles, he bought his own equipment and changed his style fom the signiture Chi fast flows and underground sounds he was known for to a more diverse stlye. "I listen to all types of music from classical, back to urban, to even country and soak it all in which allows me to create all types of material." 21Pillz now has his own production company, ACEFAM Productions and has wrote or produced a number of songs for various r&b, pop, and rap artist across the US including Kennedi ("Everything," "Hot 2nyte," "Dance With Me RMX ), P-Stone ("1 Special Lady") and upcoming releases by Pmajesty, AKG, & King V. He has released two mixtapes, "So Fresh mini mixtape" (2007) "Get N Motion Mixtape: pill 1 (2008), and is ready to release his 3rd entitled "Tha Pre Storm:pill 2(2009)." With his hit single, "Go Home" feat AKG, creating a buzz anticipation for his ep "The Storm" is generating quickly. Said 21Pillz "Music is all I know and success is all I want. When given the chance to prove myself, I shine everytime." If dedication, persitancy, and will are bricks, 21Pillz's house of success will be a skyscraper very soon.
