When compiling a list of heavy hitters in production, one would be remiss to leave out newcomer Mick Schultz. Sitting across the table from this polite, unassuming young man, one would never suspect that just below the surface lies a musical genius. Yet, at just 20 years of age, Mick Schultz has built up an arsenal of tracks that rival any of today's top producers. Schultz erupted onto the urban music scene earlier this year with his smash hit, Birthday Sex and further promises to deliver one of the year's most anticipated albums, Jeremih, slated for a June 30th release.

 
Born and raised in St. Louis, MO, it did not take Mick long before he was making his mark musically. Mick's gift and passion for music was clear from a very early age, as a set of turntables given to him on his 9th birthday would cast in stone his future career choice. "I started out Dee-Jaying parties for neighborhood kids, all for the love of making music," recalls Schultz. "My father noticed my immediate obsession and encouraged me to take piano lessons as a way to "legitimize" my newfound hobby." It just so happened that the piano teacher his parents had chosen for their son turned out to be a local music producer that could not overlook the prodigy he had found in Mick.
