Wess Nile, DJ DaVinci, Denise Listello and NeyPalm
Influences
I am deeply inspired by every LEGITIMATELY TALENTED producer/artist/MUSICIAN I ever come across. I believe that while critiquing ANY work of art, weather on a canvas or in a studio, one should TOTALLY AVOID taking the CREATOR's popularity or social status into consideration. ANYONE who fails to do so should be considered extremely ignorant, IF they are even considered at all. Fame is a temporary and irrelevant status that is COMMONLY MISCONCEIVED as talent and/or ability, though it is EASILY ACHIEVABLE without EITHER OF THE TWO. To every GENUINE MUSICIAN out there who has managed to remember what REALLY makes a song a masterpiece; I am unable to describe the degree of respect, admiration and hope I have for you and what you stand for. In this HOPELESS era of MATERIALISM, PREDICTABILITY and SHALLOW IGNORANCE, it's easy to forget the very quality that made the concept of music so DAMN POPULAR in the first place; The opportunity to truly express yourself and your differences in a way that others will not only accept, but can even relate to. As for the rest of you, who are oblivious to this ESSENTIAL ELEMENT of art, I feel infinitely sorry for you (for you will soon be forgotten).

Colby Hobbs, a.k.a. DJ DaVinci, is 29 years of age and was born in Kansas City, Missouri. He currently resides in St. Petersburg, Florida. DJ DaVinci got his first turn-table back in 1994. He DJ'd his first club 9 years ago, and became a pretty well-known DJ in the mid-west, opening up for acts like Juvenile and Lil' Wayne. About 3 years ago, DaVinci moved to Florida to attend school at IADT studying Recording Arts. This is when he first started to produce music. He would soon join forces with Wess Nile and NeyPalm to form Cigar City Productions. Now a skilled producer, his DJ career has been put on the back burner while Cigar City works on it's global takeover.

Albert Crews, a.k.a. NeyPalm, is 26 years old and was born in South Carolina but raised in Tampa, Forida. NeyPalm has been musically inclined since grade school, literally. Back in 6th grade he joined his school band as a drummer, and stayed in the band throughout highschool. He can play anything from marching-style drums to heavy metal. If you listen to his beats, it is totally obvious the amount of skill he possesses in rythym creation. A NeyPalm drumline is like absolutely no other. In 2005 he enrolled in the Recording Arts program at IADT, and inevitably met Wess Nile. The two producers-in-training had an instant chemistry, and knew they were vibing from the start. They formed Cigar City, and DJ DaVinci was introduced to the mix about a month thereafter. NeyPam is a vital asset to Cigar City's plans of monopolizing the music industry and thus taking over the world.
