  • Bio

    ...."Bunch of used-tos, has-beens bragging bad 'bout all the new dudes.. Talking tough on the ..YouTube.. 'bout what you used to do.. But that's old school to the new crew.. They're doing numbers like Sudoku.. They're the new you...".. - Jay-Z.. .. ...... .. .. .. .. .. ...... .. .......... ..“Quincey Tones might just be the UK's hottest Hip Hop commodity”.. – Hiphopdx.com.. .. .. ...... “This tape showcases Quincey Tones’ creativity to make magic given the same material. Take the time to get acquainted”.. – Allhiphop.com.. .. .. ...... “Proving that rap’s favourite gangster Tony Montana was right, the world really is yours”.. – Hip Hop Connection .. ........ .. ...... .. ............Quincey Tones – The Quintessential East Coast Producer............. .. ......But isn’t he from West London? Not one to let geographic location be a detriment, Quincey Tones is quickly establishing himself as one of the East Coast’s foremost producers, with the likes of Busta Rhymes, P Diddy, Ghostface Killah and Talib Kweli featuring on his productions. With his desire to live off the phat of the land, his Westward expansion has seen him conquer the Eastern Seaboard (NY – Cory Gunz, NC – Little Brother and Philly – Reef The Lost Cauze) before moving through the South (Young Jeezy, Lil Wayne, Jay Electronica), mid-West (Naledge of Kidz In The Hall and Royce da 5’9”) and into the fruitful California (Planet Asia and Hieroglyphics). .... ....Believing Hip Hop to be the global language, he continues to work with his fellow countrymen – lacing some of the UK’s top lyricists such as Lowkey with his stellar production and more recently having worked with Scorcher, Wretch 32, Sway and Professor Green. .. .. ...... .... Way before he was working with a number of multi-platinum artists, Quincey’s passion for music was ignited with him picking up both the guitar and double bass as a child. This was the start of his musical journey, with his first notable achievement being touring with legendary innovators of Ska “The Skatalites”. .. .. .... In the mid-90s Quincey’s love for Hip Hop and vinyl was ignited and in 1998, he saved up enough money to buy his first sampler. .. .. .... Quincey honed his skills in the coming years and in 2003 started sending beat CDs to MCs across the UK and US. He gained his first radio exposure when Kish and Dan Greenpeace of XFM and DJ Skully and DJ MK of Kiss 100 picked up on his talent on the Illanoyz (Boot Camp Clik) and Trife da God (Theodore Unit) track “Next Generation”. .. .. .... Since this initial break, Quincey has continually progressed and evolved, working with Craig G, Apathy, Esoteric, Prozack Turner, October Zero, Q-Unique, The Arsonists, Punchline, Silent Knight, Birdman, Doug E. Fresh, eMC and the previously mentioned Ghostface Killah, Young Jeezy, Busta Rhymes, Lil Wayne, Little Brother, Talib Kweli, Royce da 5’9”, P Diddy, Jay Electronica, Cory Gunz, Wordsworth, Hieroglyphics, Lowkey, Yungun, Naledge, Trife da God, Wretch 32, Professor Green, Scorcher, Sway, Shawn Wigs, Mr SOS, Planet Asia and more. .. .. .... With stand-out tracks on the critically acclaimed eMC album “The Show”, notching up production credits including the likes of Lil Wayne, Talib Kweli and Ghostface Killah, landing a track featuring Busta Rhymes on the DJ Premier executive produced Royce da 5’9” album, his remix project “God’s Gangster” receiving a rare 8 out of 10 on AllHipHop.Com and P Diddy insisting that he be featured on Jay Electronica’s “Ghost of Christopher Wallace” after hearing the beat, Quincey’s looking forward to a bright future, with a number of high-profile tracks waiting to be released. .. .. .. ............ “It seemed inevitable that West London producer Quincey Tones would confirm his position as one of the dopest doing it right now”.. – BPM MAG .. .. .. ...... “London born and bred, Quincey Tones is most definitely a producer to watch out for in the coming year”.. – femalefirst.co.uk.. .. .. ...... “gaining praise from all angles”.. – ukmusic.com.. ........ .. ...... .. ........CLICK THE BELOW PICTURE TO DOWNLOAD "NAS & QUINCEY TONES - GOD'S GANGSTER"...... .......... .. .. .. ................Put an image at the top of your profile!...... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..MyGen.. ..Profile Generator.. ....
