Dag Savage

Johaz of Deep Rooted was in my studio for a couple of days recording some new joints with Exile for their album Dag Savage. He's rockin the crown and feelin real victorious like...as he should. If your not familiar with Johaz get familiar by checking out his crew Deep Rooted out of San Diego...theyre doing it real proper like under Tajai's Clear Label. Johaz is a funny dude and a beast on the mic and this album is gonna weigh a ton...

Bang My $h*t

For the past 3 years i have been in the studio with The Pharcyde on a regular basis...at least twice a week...at least. I mixed an album for Imani called "Blaquestardustt" as well as an EP called "Blackdust". Here is a video i took of The Pharcyde show at the Key Club with Imani performing "Bang my shit" & "Vibrate" that i mixed...The place was vibrating and it made me feel really good to hear my mixes translate incredibly well in the Key Clubs loud ass system.  Also is a video of The Pharcyde performing "passing me bye" which has passed the test of time. certified classic. And "Oh Shit!". I am proud to be able to work with these dudes for real.

Been walking in the sunlight.....

This is a video i shot and edited by me. The star of the video is my daughter Jazz on her first time on a carrousel....She got scared, but she will love it later. I had been sitting on the beat for a minute, but it complimented the video well with its whimsical circus feel. This was a good day and im glad i got to capture it and share it with you. i plan to make more of these music videos with a peek into personal moments in my life with my music as a backdrop. enjoy...
