Kareem A.

Born June 14th in Trinidad, came up to the states in 1987 winter. I met up with my family in ENY Brooklyn. 1989 moved to SSJamaica Queens where I started school and grew up. I always had a passion for Music, Trains, Construction and Electronics. As a kid if I wasn't building something or taking something apart, or rewiring something I was banging on table or walls or playing a instrument. I play the drums, little bit of guitar, piano/ keyboard, sax and flute. In elementary school I was best beat maker on the tables as well as in Jr high and High school. No Lie. Hands pen or pencil I was doing it. I started out first playing Guitar and then keyboard and sax during my years of elementary school. In my senior year of Jr High I was given a beat machine to work with from a friend that I teamed up with (K Y). Dr. Groove 202 beat machine. From there I was introduced to making beats on the PC. Fruity Loops was the shit and still is. I learned so much about it and still learning. From there I started messing with the MP and more studio equipment. 2006 I started using reasons and graduated to the 4.0. I've used both FL studio and reasons to create beats and joined them using programs like pro tools and cool edit pro, Cubase, Digital performer, Alberton live, ect. I'm about being original, don't like to sample to much. I do recording, I worked out of 2 studio's, one I put together and ran. I am currently working out of a home studio and a studio in a barber shop (best cutter) in my hood . I do sell beats for a low price and I do deals depending on the amount of beats. I write tracks as well, Rap, HipHop, R&R. Prices on beats ranges from $60 & up for local up n comers, $1,000 & up for industry. Studio time and mixing time varies. Located in Queens NYC Merrick BLVD.
