Multi Billboard-charting & Dove Award-winning, Singer/Songwriter, Music Producer & Mixing Engineer. I have produced for Kesha, Mau y Ricky, Dylan Fuentes, Tainy, Lecrae, Andy Mineo, Capitol Records Social Club Misfits etc. I have worked in Music for over 15 years, and I am currently based out of Miami. 50 Million streams and counting.
Over the years I've had the opportunity to work with a variety of artists in different music genres. It's been challenging at most but very rewarding. This experience has given me a pretty in-depth knowledge into working with different sounds and different types of artists. This is the reason why my album (The Last Time I Tried) has a variety of genres. You can find it on iTunes, Spotify, SoundCloud and every online platform 98% of the songs on my SoundCloud are written, produced, mixed, mastered and completely engineered by myself. The two things you have to know about me are that; I take the art of making music very serious and I am fast and precise in my work. I can't wait to work with you.
I absolutely only do features with express permission and agreements on song selection and collaboration. All songs should be considered as work for hires (which means no name credits, and that I require no royalties) until agreed upon

I've worked with Daramola on several projects and each one was unique and more than I was expecting. This newest project was the same, as he really found the vibe instrumentally and vocally and took the song to a really great place. He was also very accommodating to suggestions and responded and made the changes very quickly. Great work again !!!
