Sixx John hails from the San Fernando Valley, (15 min. north of L.A.). He's gone from the predicted artist who put the west on the map, to a producer who's had a pretty good rookie year! Sixx credits part of his success to his long-time friend Ne-Yo, who has "first dibs" on all of Sixx's musical compositions, being that the Dynamic Duo are two of the original members of Compound Entertainment.Mr. Johnson says it's crazy because his friend Tango has to sometimes remind him that he's a producer. Sixx admits that he tends to get side-tracked with his multiple jobs. Not only is he a beast on the beats, he's also one of the few artist that could bring Los Angeles rap back to the forefront while giving it a new face.His production of Ne-Yo's U.K. & Japanese releases of "In My Own Words" continues to raise the eyebrows of music lovers across the world. His laid-back attitude reflects on his quantize-free percussion of Ne-Yo's U.K. bonus track "Girlfriend" and his polished reversed violin on "Lonely" gives the super songwriter room to literally paint the picture of how he's so YLENOL (that's Lonely backwards).Once again Sixx a.k.a. the Renaissance Man proves his versatility with Heather Headley's ballad "I Didn't Mean To", written by: Ne-Yo. This joint offers a half-bar vocal sample and the credits not only read "Produced By", but they also read "All Keyboards By"...yep, you guessed it Sixx John. Proving to all doubters that he is a true musician, in every aspect of the word.He also did the score to Katt Williams' Pimp Chronicle's Volume 1, another notch to his production belt.Sixx says it's funny that people once compared him to Jay-Z on the mic, because ironically Mr. Johnson is one way or another apart of the last few releases that are Exclusively Produced by The Carter Administration... hmmmmmm. So i guess it's safe to say that Hova has no problems wit his 1 artist's bestfriend/producer/artist/writer...oh yeah! did we mention DJ? Well stay tuned cause this kid is a problem that none can seem to fix.......
