Devin serves as the musical brain of the company, producing, writing, and engineering countless "dope" tracks, as many of his peers would call them. Not to mention his ability to rap with the best of them, while also being able to connect with his r&b and alternative audience through a unique sultry singing. Devin proves to be a quintuple-threat in the music business. Collaborating with several up and coming artists, writers, musicians, and producers alike, Devin shows true versatility and exemplifies that of a genuinely personable individual.

But music isn't the only thing he excels in. Proclaimed as the "artyst" Devin was a scholar of the fine arts at Morehouse College majoring in studio art. During his matriculation he networked extensively gaining healthy business relationships that would help him grow as a person, and in turn positively reflect on his music production company. Art and education have been the foundations of Devin's upbringing. With his mother being a skilled professional artist, and his father a well-known administrator and teacher in the science department of Morehouse, diligence, discipline, and creativity have been instilled in him since day one. With music being one of his favorite subjects in school, it wasn't hard for his mother to convince him to join the orchestra, and in the 4th grade at Kittredge Magnet School (Atlanta GA), he picked up his very first instrument-the cello. This would pave the way for his musical innovation and passion for the rest of his life. Upon graduating from Riverwood High School in the North Atlanta area in 2005, Devin received the "fine arts" seal for his active participation in the orchestra for almost 10 years. Through past formal training of several instruments in the orchestra Devin has taught himself to be proficient in playing guitar and piano, increasing his arsenal of musical weaponry. Influenced by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Prince, Jay-Z, Pharrell, and countless other legends, Devin is sure to emerge as a new leading producer/artist of our time, and will contribute to the art form in a way that no other music producer has done before.
