Bio
Born to Olanrewaju Awofeso and Lakeeta Awofeso on Jan 4th, 1988.
His musical career began at home listening to his mother sing to him, and listening to his father's outstanding jazz collection. At a young age, he was making drums out of pots and pans and playing along to Miles Davis and Thelonius Monk.
In middle school he was given a trumpet and started taking his music to his church piano and trying to pick out the notes one at a time. Two Years later the church ended up giving him that old piano and it would be with him until he graduated from high school.
In high school he stayed in band and got into percussion, drumline, and played piano for jazz band and two choirs. His brother and kinda-brother started rapping at this time, and asked him to record them. He started teaching himself sound and beat making.
In College, at Texas State University, he played for a salsa group and at 1am on the pianos of dorms room.
He then left to get his degree in Audio Engineering at SJCD in Pasadena, TX. Recorded about 30 tracks for various rappers and artists.
After he graduated, he packed up and moved back to san antonio to become the Audio Operator for Kens 5, and for the next year, live mixed and scored one hour morning show, where he made music videos, did voice overs, met important figures, learned invaluable skills, and where his ADD was mastered.
He then found himself in Austin, where he currently plays in three bands
