Check out and share our KEYZ Interview. This interview is part of our new Producer & Engineer Q&A Series. In this interview series we feature exciting producers, mixing and mastering engineers from all walks of life. As always: Share & Support!
Please introduce yourself real quick. Tell our audience about your background and how you go into doing what you´re doing right now.
Whats Up I'm Keyz, I'm a up and coming producer from Norfolk, Virginia, I am one of the most diverse producers you will ever meet.I create classic instrumentals from modern day r&b to every type of rap (down south,east coast, west coast, midwest, old school sampled, UNLIMITED MUSIC!!!). I put together ORIGINAL BEATS within minutes and WONT STOP until the beat fits you..There is nothing I cant really do musically( songwriting, hooks, adlibs, producing, etc.). I can make any rapper, singer, or poet just starting out, sound professional and radio ready. Becoming YOUR producer, gives you the advantage of getting unlimited beats for your shows, mixtapes, albums, or singles. No matter what type of beats your into, I will create a masterpiece with my OWN touch on it.
Please tell our audience what projects have you been working on in the last years?
I've mainly stayed into rap & r&b. I tend to experiment sometimes. I've actually produced for locals that I know personally. I have a few beats scattered throughout the industry. I also worked on a few r&b projects. I dropped my first single last year. Go to my soundcloud.com/Keyztothacity1 to lend a ear.
What are you currently working on? Do you accept clients and and what kind of projects/work fits your profile?
I'm currently working on my EP then my mixtape. It will be here before summer entitled " The Wise Vs The Wicked". I do all urban music, whatever you're looking I probably already have or will create shortly. Basically just tell me what you are looking and I will go into my library of instrumental.
