Almost four – I made it to the finals for the fourth one. That was my thing.Īnd how many years in a row did you win the competition? After my whole dancehall era, I fell in love with hip-hop. You were making dancehall at this point or hip-hop focused? Once you use a beat, it’s over, you can’t use that beat again. There’s three judges and a crowd, so the crowd reaction on top of the judges’ scorecards determine if you move on to the next round. The competition was like, you come in with your best beats, and it’s your best beat against the other person’s best beat.

I didn’t go in there with an expectation of winning. But I still didn’t think I was ready for the competition – I entered it and I was terrified I was the youngest person in the competition. Eventually it got to a point where they were like, this is starting to sound good. They’d tell me straight up if it was garbage. I would play music for some of my friends in high school and they would be like, This is trash. When did you decide you were ready to enter Battle of the Beatmakers? If it doesn’t come out when it comes out, you’re forcing it. I’m the kind of guy, I don’t like to sit there and waste hours trying to make a song. It’s easy to get your ideas out, your ideas across. I thought it was the easiest and most comfortable for me to use. It was really about figuring it out.Ī lot of producers start on one program but then move to others – why did you stick to FruityLoops? At the time there was no YouTube to look up tutorials. Turning knobs and seeing what they do on my own. I really started off myself just toying around with the program. When you took up Fruity Loops, were your friends into it as well, or was it just your thing? My dad used to play a lot of dancehall music, so that’s what I was into really early. So I was always in a house with music playing 24/7. My parents were big listeners as well as my sister. I didn’t go to piano lessons I didn’t know anything formal. My mom had bought me a Casio keyboard when I was younger, but I wasn’t really into it. You hadn’t done any music-making before FruityLoops? I entered a beat-maker’s competition and ended up winning it a few years in a row. I just kept playing around with it until I got really, really good at it. I started to work on it from there and it kind of became an addiction. One summer I was really bored, and I ended up taking my mom’s credit card and downloading it. I was told by a friend about the program that I use to this day, FruityLoops.
