J WhiteTake some of the hottest beats, a smooth sexy voice, production skills
(that
stand up with those at the top of the industry), and ruggedly chiseled
model-like looks—mix it all together and the product would probably
look and
sound a lot like J. White.J White, who’s real name is Anthony Jermaine White, was born in
Blytheville,
Arkansas. Due to the musical background of his family, it was no
surprise that
J White would find interest in music at a young age. His father, a
gospel
singer, plays the guitar and drums, his mother sang with a local band
that had
a huge local fan base, his uncle plays the drums, numerous aunts sing
and his
late Grandmother, Johnnie B. White, had a voice to be reckoned with.
The young
Mr. White would watch his relatives in awe and would dream of having
their
talent.At the early age of eleven, J White, along with his grandmother, would
show up
at church before everyone else arrived. He used this time to practice
on the
drums and piano and it wasn’t long before he had mastered the basics.
He also
showed that he had a singing voice beyond his years. It was when he
turned 13,
and his family moved to Leavenworth Kansas, that he truly began to see
music
as a future for himself. Along with a friend, J White formed a singing
group
of which he became their producer, creating beats and melodies for them
to
sing to. From the beginning, his talent was obvious…But it wasn’t until
his
uncle purchased a keyboard from Radio Shack that he was really able to
excel.
His uncle would teach him some of what he knew and when he was alone,
White
would teach himself what he could just by using his ear. He played what
he
created for friends and local artist and before long every artist in
the area
wanted him to create beats for them.As he gained recognition in the area, he decided that he wasn’t feeling
the
name Anthony, so he began going by his middle name Jermaine. By
sixteen, he
was always in the studio and those that knew him for his music would
call him
by his initial and last name…and the name took – thus the singer/
rapper/producer/label owner known as J White was born. As word of mouth
began
to spread, White also began creating beats professionally for artists
like DJ
AKA Homacadi and the Naughty Kings out of California, A singer named
Tiffany,
and various underground artists. Having finished tracks for Jermaine
Forrester, whose album is now in stores, White’s now developing his own
material and operating as the in-house producer for Freelanze
Entertainment,
and recording with The Diplomats’ Juelz Santana and Bad Boy
Entertainment.Now has Signed with Jazze Pha
As the hottest and most recognized producer in the Midwest, J White has
more
artists requesting beats than time permits—and he is the next big thing
to
look out for in 2007-08.Extended Network Banner made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own!
