J Staffz! I’m so excited to get the chance to speak to you! Thank you for your time!
Thanks so much. I really appreciate the chance to be on your site.

Are you kidding? It’s my pleasure (lol)! As you know, I have a lot of questions for you that I can’t wait to get into! So far starters, I know that you Produce beats, how long have you been doing that?
I’ve been making beats since I was 15 year old.

So you’ve been at it for a few years now. Which genres of music influences your style?
Who are some of your biggest inspirations when it comes to your work?
I love classical music. I love cool chord progressions and string sections. I really love the production by The Neptunes as well.

Yeah, the Neptunes are dope. I wouldn’t have thought you’d be inspired by Classical music though. Especially since the beats you make are primarily hip hop. Do you play any instruments, and do you take part in any other aspect of the music business?
I rap and sing. Not that I want to do them as a career. I make beats and I have my own studio so it’s easier for me. Recording other artists all the time taught me a lot. I’ve been playing piano for 18 years. I also play the drums.
