Hey,
My name is Heiarii Ueva but I go under the name of God Pharaoh, I'm 26 years old and I'm a french music producer coming right from French Polynesia, Tahiti.
I started to get interested in music when I was younger, I started to learn how to play the drum with my dad and then the guitar too. I also have a huge metal background so that's why I started to write music and I recorded my first song with a cheap kinda microphones earphones and I couldn't believe what I heard because I recorded it you know and I was like "Wow that's cool" so I converted the song and uploaded to my old cellphone and the day after I was so excited to show that song to my friends but one day I think I was in high school maybe in 2010 something like that, my best friend showed me Biggie Smalls and that day I started to get into hip hop music and then he showed me another track "Purple Drank" by Frayser Boy so we decided to make that kinda of music, so I started to learn how to use FL studio I didn't know how to use it at all so I watched some tutorials on Youtube and I started to work on it day and night to make some beat but it didn't work well and a few month later I discovered trap music when I heard the 1st album of Waka Flocka Flame 'Flockaveli' which was produced by Lex Luger, he was a huge influence in my music, in my production and that was something I could deal with it so since that day everything is fire.
Please tell our audience what projects have you been working on in the last years?
I've been working on several projects like metal, trap and pop music but I'm more focused on trap and pop music.
What are you currently working on? Do you accept clients and and what kind of projects/work fits your profile?
I just released a track with a friend of mine called 'I'll Be Okay' and I'm currently working on two new songs so If you want to work with me we can do it from A to Z just hit me up.
