"I grew up listening to MANY different styles of music, which has given me a great deal of versatility when writing and producing. My goal as a producer is to do for gospel rap what Dr. Dre has done for rap music. I want to set the bar higher. In fact, I want to outdo what Dre has done to show the whole rap world that God indeed has the better music. Dr. Dre and Mantronik are the two major influences in my life. Most of my (rap) inspirations come out the East Coast."
