About Me

Born in Puerto Rico. Moved to the U.S. at an early age where a new sound was making a whole lot of noise to many, but music to my ears.I was introduced to Hip Hop in the early 80's, and have been part of it ever since.From Breakdancer, to Graffiti artist. Turntable DJ, Beatboxer, to MC. In one way or all, I was either doing it or trying to learn how to do it.My first piece of equipment was a Sequential TOM drum machine. I fell in love with making beats from that point on.Learning from all the great producers before I was able to lay down my first track. Jam Master Jay (R.I.P), Scot La Rock (R.I.P) The 45King, The RZA, DJ Muggs, DJ Premier, DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Clue, DR.DRE.And after : J Dilla (R.I.P), The Alchemist, 9th Wonder, The Neptunes, Timberland and so many more...I am influenced by almost 3 generations of producers in Hip Hop. And even at 90 years old Ill be banging beats."No Cars//No Gloss//No Platinum// Hip Hop is all Im giving them"JGonz
