Jesse-Parks

At a young age, Jesse Parks is already on his way to becoming one of the most prominent music producers on Chicago's south side. He comes from a family of singers, rappers, DJs, and producers. He was exposed to music as far back as he can remember. With both of his parents being from Belize, he was partially influenced by Reggae, Soca as well as Soul, R&B, and the Blues. Growing up he was inspired by Old School. It wasn't until December 1st of 2002 when he decided to persue his life long dream by giving music production a try and he made his first beat. He continued to enhance his skills for the next few years until he made himself known to almost every local music artist in Dolton. People would trip out on how he always used to walk around all day with his headphones on. He took his music everywhere and he made everybody he came around hear the newest music that he made. Beat CD after beat CD after beat CD his reputation for grew and over time, so did his ever-increasing love for music. The most distinctive things about his tracks were the rapid hi-hats, the ear catching melodies, and his trademark whistle. When he perfected the art of chopping up samples, his creativity led him to sample video games and movies. Everyday he proceeds to practice, review, and go over one thing or another so that he can advance further in his craft. Over time his sound continued to evolve until he attained the skills that will give him the flair he needs to become recognized by real music lovers for many years to come. His passion for music is so deep that he says that he plans on making beats for the rest of his life. Like any other real artist he uses his artistic ability as an outlet to express himself and this results in him not only making hip-hop beats but also Reggae, R&B, Rock and even movie scene music. (From time to time he has the tendency to make some off the wall music when he mixes his creative imagination with boredom.)In the past he has produced local hits such as "City of Wind" featuring Chicago's own Trauma and "Number 1" featuring Nado. He has also hooked up with The Face of Chicago himself... Beadz to put out the street banger "Holla At Em". Recently, he pre-produced the beat for Chicago's soon-to-be classic "Dying to Survive" featuring P.Plus and Def Jam's Poet Redstorm. Jesse has already pre-produced hundreds of industry quality beats and he doesnt plan on slowing down any time soon. With dedication and determination, he is ready to overcome any obstacle that may hinder him from becoming a success.A few of his long term goals are learning how to play the Guitar, Drums, Piano, and Harmonica. He will also study music theory. His reputation is rapidly increasing throughout the Chicagoland area. He has produced beats for many chicago artists. His main objective at this point in his career is to work with many underground artists and independent labels so that he can let the whole world know about the talent that the city of Chicago has to offer.
