Interview by: KG and Shep of COSIGN Magazine
It seems that more and more talent are coming from up-north, far up-north that is. J.Staffz, the young and talented producer from Toronto, Canada is a force to be reckoned with. This young entrepreneur resume is tough enough to compete with your favorite producer, and probably has already worked with your favorite artist, and this is just the beginning. Find out why the staff of COSIGN Magazine, COSIGN’s J.Staffz!
Where are you from? Toronto, Canada. Eh!
Tell us your background.
I’ve been playing piano since I was 7. I started making beats when I was 15. By the time I was 20 I had songs on local radio and now I’ve produce for a couple big artists and many TV shows.
What made you want to become a producer? I’ve been playing piano since I was 7. My mother sings and my father DJ’s. I’ve always had music around me.
How did you get your first start in the industry? Someone stole my beats a few years ago and gave then to G-Unit. Somehow they found out that I made them and since then I’ve been producing full time.

Glenn talks new album release; up and downs of the industry; his previous aspirations to be an emcee and more with Heroin Tracks during “Juno Hoops 2011”.
Catchin’ up with new artist Raheem. Got a few viral joints to post over the next week or so, starting with this one over Drake’s “King Leon” beat.
I guess it’s safe to say I’m preparing myself for what’s to come. I have DJ Drama hosting my #PeerPressure Mixtape and I needed promo pics. @MCityLove setup a photo shoot with Facts Rocka and he figured why not shoot a lil promo video as well! Enjoy.
This is a MUST WATCH. Bravo put together a 3-part documentary focusing on Toronto’s popular music scene in the 1950’s and ’60’s. This is a clip from Part 1 that aired last night in which Duke Edwards explains that Toronto was part of the Chitlin Circuit (had no idea about that) and gives some great insight as to what T.O. was like back in the day!
Hopefully they’ll put the full documentary online after it finishes airing Wednesday night.
