My brother makes beats, and I DJ.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Everything I make as a producer, I visualize it as a DJ first. And all those beats, I test them as a DJ.
I was making crappy beats since I was, like, 17 or 18, using Florida rappers, where I'm from. Then I started DJ'ing because I just wanted to have a new job.
My brother's been producing rap music and hip-hop for maybe 10 years.
In high school I was making beats for my friends and for myself and rapping over them.
I've been DJing mostly, and most DJs end up producing. That's just me.
As an individual I was known as the DJ or the mixer.
I don't do this for the money, I don't do it for record sales, I don't really care about that, I just want to make beats.
I'm a DJ. I get the party started.
My brother is an excellent songwriter, and I play guitar and drums.
I consider myself more of a producer and a musician than a DJ.
