Funkdaddy has a strong foundation in the Northwest music scene, and his presence beyond the Emerald City is felt on many levels. Born and raised in Seattle, Funkdaddy has produced, engineered, and written songs for groups all over the country since his high school days, and has blessed gold and platinum artists with his incredible turntable skills. He became well known for his battle technique, taking first place in The Battle For Seattle Supremacy in 1989 and in the CITR DJ & MC Battle in Vancouver, B.C. in 1990. He returned to the CITR the following year, not to compete in the deejay competition, but in the MC battle. When the smoked cleared, Funkdaddy was deemed the MC Battle Champion.
With the success of his deejaying and rhyming, Funkdaddy wanted to make his mark on his first love?producing. Friend J.D. Hill met Bay Area legend E-40 at the Gavin Convention in San Francisco and passed him a tape of Funkdaddy's beats. Within a couple of weeks, E-40 brought Funkdaddy in to produce three tracks on his first RIAA Certified Platinum Album In A Major Way.
The experience turned out to be the launching pad for Funkdaddy to put out his own debut solo album, Funk U Right On Up. He went on to record two additional solo albums: Funkdaddy Is The Source, and his most recent release I Want All That. His music was featured in the former ABC weekly series Dangerous Minds, which was based off the motion picture of the same name. He had tracks on the Hip Hop documentary Rhyme and Reason, as well as in the movie and on the soundtrack for 3 Strikes, and later in the hot nationally released documentary Street Racing.
Funkdaddy's production has received critical acclaim, and his work includes tracks with Daz, D12, Livio, Spice 1, Dru Down, B-Legit, Ras Kass, Money B, N2Deep, Cool Nutz, Mac Dre, and many others. His reputation for being the most consistent and hottest deejay in the area earned him the 1999 "Best Club and Mix Tape DJ Award" at The Northwest Music Awards. In 2003 he rocked the Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee's Phat Farm fashion show at Club Rock Salt, the Microsoft X-Box Holiday Party at Seahawk Stadium, and performed in Las Vegas with Erick Sermon and Too $hort. He also secured a spot on the weekly Mixshow at 104.5 KMIH FM in Seattle, and branched out through the promotional opportunities at the station.
While he still maintains a busy schedule spinning at the hottest clubs and events in the Northwest and beyond, he has been in the studio non-stop.
