About Me

..This profile was edited with Space codes - Editor MySpace HELP Profile Help!I`VE BEEN HANGING AROUND STUDIO`S SINCE I WAS 15. BACK THEN IT WAS WITH HOMEBOY, HIPPY & A FUNKY DREAD. HOMEBOY AKA MARCUS WILLIAMS WAS AND IS A CLOSE FRIEND OF MINE, SO I USED TO SIT AROUND THE STUDIO WATCHING AND LEARNING. I SOON FOUND MY OWN VOICE AS A RAGGA MC ON SOUND SYSTEMS BUT ALL MY FRIENDS WERE BETTER THAN ME, SO I STARTED RAPPING. BECAUSE I WAS THE ONLY ONE RAPPING I WAS BETTER THAN THE REST. AFTER ABOUT A YEAR OF PRACTICE I WAS READY. I MET BACK UP WITH POTENTIAL WHEN HE WAS ON IBZIA RECORDS. I HAD KNOWN HIM SINCE I WAS 8 YRS OLD, BUT WE WERE OFF DOING OUR OWN THINGS. HE HEARD ME RAP AND WAS IMPRESSED. I THEN FOLLOWED POTENTIAL FROM IBZIA TO SOUR, TO NEW YORK, TO THIRD EYE RECORDS, TO JAPAN. I HAD FEATURED ON 2/3 TRACKS ON HIS 1ST ALBUM PYRAMID, LATER THAT YEAR MY 1ST SINGLE WAS RELEASED BAD BOY DJ IN 1995 ON MY 1ST ALBUM WAS RELEASED IN 1997 ALSO ON THIRD EYE RECORDS. I HAVE WORKED WITH SHY FX & T.POWER, ELISIBETH TROY, KENNY KEN AND MC DET UNDER THE NAME BAD VIBES. I`VE PREFORMED IN LONDON, AROUND THE UK, JAPAN AND NEW YORK. AFTER MY ALBUM THINGS SLOWED DOWN. I HAD FORMED MY OWN GROUP WHICH FEATURED ON MY ALBUM, COLD REALITY. WE ENTERED A FEW COMPETITIONS BUT NOTHING MUCH CAME OF IT AND THE GROUP SPLIT UP. WE WERE OLD FRIENDS SO NO LOVE LOST, BUT I COULD`NT GIVE UP ON MUSIC. SO I BOUGHT A COMPUTER AND TOUGHT MYSELF HOW TO PRODUCE, HIP HOP, R&B AS I ALREADY KNEW HOW TO USE THE PROGRAMMES. I STARTED TO PREFORM WITH MY COUSIN`S JAZZ BAND, AS ONE OF THE LEAD VOCALIST. WE HAD A FEW SHOWS THAT WENT WELL BUT THEN AGAIN THINGS SLOWED DOWN SO I MOVED ON AGAIN. I LEFT LONDON TO BROADEN MY HORIZIONS. I GOT AS FAR AS RUGBY WHERE I STAYED FOR 3 YRS. I WAS UP & DOWN FROM LONDON AND FEATURED ON A GARAGE TRACK BY DR. QUEFF (FROM ANT HILL MOB) ON CONFFETTI RECORDS IN 2000 WHEN I MOVED BACK TO LONDON. THEN I PRACTICED MY PRODUCTIONS UNTILL 2003 WHEN AREA 52 RECORDS OPENED IN EDMINTON NORTH LONDON AND I WAS TAKEN ON AS A PRODUCER/ ENGINEER. ALSO IN THE SAME YEAR ''BAD BOY DJ'' FEATURED ON ROOTS MANUVA`S TRIBUTE ABLUM ''BAD MEANING GOOD'', WHICH CONTAINS ARTIST AND TRACKS THAT HAVE INFLUENCED HIM OVERTHE YEARS. SINCE THEN I`VE BEEN PRODUCING WITH AREA 52 RECORDINGS FOR ARTIST SUCH AS, MC/DJ ED SKI, SMALLS & WHITE CHRIS, FRANKY MAX, J.C MONEY (WHO HAS A VIDEO ON BEN TV FEAT AREA 52 CAMP AS WE SPEAK), VINCE LORENZ, RUBY, UNCONDITIONAL, MYSELF AND MANY MORE.
