About Me

Hailing from the Southeast side of US31E, I am southern bred, southern born, southern proud. I eat, sleep and breathe bass, the constant hum of 60hz makes it's way to my music, usually pitched up or down to voice accordingly. My drums are nasty, my bass is deep, my pads are ethereal, my leads cut. Im inspired by jungle, garage, house, and most importantly... gangster rap. Im the thugliest person you know. I voluntarily buy backwoods and King Cobra. I cook fried chicken, i eat it with hot sauce and waffles. Bourbon flows through my veins, my temper will spout it. I love art, dance, drawing, music, cooking and sculpture. Michigan is my new home, the cold weather suits me. I needed a break from all that bad shit i was caught in down kentucky way. Now i sit by this lazy huron river and soak in all the sounds and movement of the area.

FAQs
Q: You say you make Rap beats, but why arent there many rap/hip hop styled beats on your page?
A: I post music that i enjoy making, for myself on this page. I have been making music long enough to have made pretty much everything.
Q: I hang out with you all the time, why am I not on your top friends list?
A: Grow the fuck up. This is myspace. Friends arent ranked in my book, if youre my real friend, chances are that i have your phone number or you have me on facebook.
Q: Why dont you want to give us beats for free?
A: i give people free beats all the time. This is work after all, im not working for you unless i get paid or youre my friend and im doing you a favor.
Q: I dont like the price you gave me for an exclusive, why do you charge so much?
A: Im a nice guy, send me a message and let me know what your budget is and ill do my best to work with you, of course nothing is free however.
Q: If i buy a beat from you, what format will it be delivered as?
A: All exclusive beats will be given as 24 or 16 bit (your choice) 44.1kHz WAV or AIF file. All Leased beats will be deliverd as 320kbps MP3 Files.
Q: I need a beat NOW! Whats the fastest way to contact you?
A: Your best bet would be AIM. My screen name is CellmtK (imagine that). Message me even if it says im not online ;].
Q: Youre pretty good. Could you do a whole album?
A: Yes and No, i can make beats for the album, but a whole album is a whole lot of work. I'd contract out the work to trusted friends and you would have your album, but of course album is a loose term so i would discount your project based on the number of tracks that you need.
