vvv peep the signature. I produce, mainly rap, and a lil bit of R&B. I took piano lessons for a few years but was too young to appreciate it, but that background helped me to produce at the level that I do now. I am considering taking piano lessons this summer, because I feel I'll be damn near unstoppable if I get a bit more training, and I'll be able to do what 75% of most established rap producers can't do.

I've always used the keyboard to help me figure out arrangements for my band, but i only took piano for like 3 months over the past summer(had 2 stop cz of a financial situation). That lil bit of instruction has helped me tremendously, and i will pick it back up when i can afford it. in college, i intend on learning the fundamentals of every band instrument (tho my baby is clarinet, i know snare and trumpet fundamentals) Cosigns on the strings, listen to every seriously popular song and there are strings inthere somewhere. i love doing arrangements so hit me up

I am a singer. I just started producing a few tracks and I like it better than actually singing. I'm going to invest in learning how to really play a piano (besides simple songs) in the near future. I think that if you can sing and play the piano it sharpens your musical ear and you can produce at greater levels.
