Ya boy Nastee has done his thing is this music game... started out as a DJ in the Dirty Bean (Boston, Mass) in the mid 80's... in 1990 after finishin' high school moved 2 NYC and jumped in the game head first DJin' 4 a group signed 2 Reprise/Warner Bros. called "Unity 2" (one of the first hip hop bands with a DJ) as well as connecting with the mighty Boogie Down Productions and DJin' 4 "Harmony" (Virgin) who wuz Ms. Melodie's sister and wuz produced by KRS One... from there the natural next step wuz engineering & producing... first production gig wuz doin' beats 4 a group out of Toronto called "Dream Warriors" ("Back'n'Forth" & "My Style Ain't Free") but it wuz never released... first engineering gig wuz with "Lordz Of Brooklyn" (it wuz crazy, they had Rammellzee in the studio with them)... after that I linked up with Dante Ross and SD50 (big up Rob Perlman, Geeby and my dude Jon Gamble) and produced 3 tracks 4 this Long Island group signed 2 Atlantic Records called "Hard 2 Obtain" ("Sh*t We Do", "Ghetto Diamond" & "Hip Hop Lifestyle")... started workin' with reggae/hip hop icon Bobby Konders doin' remixes 4 Cutty Ranks ("Living Condition"), Burro Banton ("Big Man a Chill"), Bounty Killa featuring Jeru The Damaja ("Suicide Murda") and others... in 1995 landed a gig as the head engineer at The Cutting Room Studios in Manhattan (big up Crafty Crafa) and worked with all the top hip hop artists of that time including Mobb Deep, Big Punisher, Noreaga, Busta Rhymez, 50 Cent (b-4 "How 2 Rob"), Crooked Lettaz (David Banner),Das EFX, dead prez and others... mixed one of Mobb Deep's biggest records "Quiet Storm" (first single off their platinum LP "Murda Muzik") and Peter Gunz & Lord Tariq platinum single "Deja Vu (Uptown Baby)"... produced songs 4 Wu-Tang affiliate Killah Priest "Tha Last Supper" (unreleased), "My Hood" & "Come With Me" (Priesthood LP)... in 2000 fed up with the music biz relocated back to Boston and then (in 2003) up 2 Burlington, Vermont... made a name in Burlington as an M.C. and DJ with 3-4 local gigs around town per week and a very popular radio show ("The Statik Music Mixtape" wuz heard every monday @ 3pm on WRUV FM Burlington). Also opened up 4 heavywieghts KRS One, Immortal Technique, GZA, Common, Talib Kweli, Jurassic 5, C. Rayz Walz, Smif-n-Wesson and others... in 2005 decided it wuz time 2 go back 2 the big dance... New York City and the shady music biz... Now itz 2006, and with a new group of revolutionaries called "The Drop Squad" and a family called "THE VT UNION" itz about time 2 take the message of luv where it needz 2 go... all power to the people...
