African Supaman on SoundBetter

I'm a versatile Genre Music Producer, Mix Engineer, Singer/Songwriter and Rapper with experience of providing upcoming artists with the tools and techniques needed for the success of their career.

I was born in Kenya but raised in America however after High School I came back home to experience my cultural sounds to assist with making it different. If you're looking for different, I got you.

All my life I've always been fascinated by MUSIC. Whilst at home in Kenya I would join dancing competitions which I found myself winning easily having created a great foundation on GROOVE. When my family moved to America, the love, the inspiration, the fascination for the music culture grew even broader! The music here opened a new dimension of my thinking so I joined the high school bands/choir, I later joined stage play musical; Hairspray and I knew right away that music was going to be my career.

Today I make great music in my professional Home Studio and I'm ready to be part of your successful inspiring journey in music.
