Bio
When I was young I always had a love of music. I grew up in a ghetto, an urban neighborhood, and it became clear from an early age that music is what tames the savage beast. Production is like wizardry: it makes people happy, it makes people sad...it has a profound effect on people.
Growing up, I was inspired by great artists like the Spinners, Magic, The Stylistics, Loose Ends...and great producers like Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Quincy Jones, George Clinton and Zapp and Rogers.
I started out just like anyone else and worked my way up from the bottom, learning my equipment and the skills required to become a good producer.
We're from New Jersey, specifically from the Monmouth County area. I started Black Wizard Entertainment mainly because of my love of music, but also because I saw the lack of respect and exposure for New Jersey artists.
Most of the airplay and promotion on the East Coast goes towards New York artists. I do have mad love and respect for many producers and MCs out of New York - I love Nas for his great metaphors, Jay-Z and Busta Rhymes for their great showmanship and flow...if it wasn't for New York there would be no hip hop. However, there are a lot of haters out there who don't give Jersey artists their due.
We're not just talking about New Jersey; there are a lot of artists whose talent is overlooked because of what state they're from. I've gotta give respect to the South, as they always look their artists out and show love. Consequently it's that kind of unity that shows why hip hop artists from ATL, New Orleans, Houston, they're all on top of the charts right now.
There are a lot of New Jersey producers, MCs, vocalists, and writers out there that are just as good as their counterparts in New York, if not better. It's our time to make our voices heard, showcase our talent, and represent for Jersey.
