YOUNG C-NOTE BIO
An Atlanta native, Young C-Note (aka Cameron Thompson) discovered his love for music, and began his pursuit of a career in the industry at an early age.
In 1995, at only eight years old, Young C-Note recorded his first self-produced and self-written song, titled "I Grind Full-Time." In 2002, the song was re-recorded and set to a different track. Shortly after revamping the song, C-Note duplicated and burned it onto CD's, passing them out to his peers at school. He received a positive response, and this would be the first project to inspire C-Note to continue working toward his dream of becoming a rapper.
At the age of 15, Young C-Note was introduced to a talent manager, Art Yancey, who would later become his representation. Yancey saw something promising in C-Note's talent, and introduced him to the advanced technologies of a state-of-the-art recording studio. At the studio, Yancey taught him everything he needed to know in order to become a successful artist.
Not long after establishing a business relationship with Yancey, C-Note suggested he meet a talented classmate of his. When he finally heard her sing, Yancey decided to bring them together to form a duet. The unnamed duet recorded their first song together in 2003, titled, "Drugs," comprised of lyrics to encourage youths to stay away from drugs. Months later, C-Note had his first brush-up with the law, causing separation of the duet.
Young C-Note did not let that stop him.
In seventh grade he was introduced to Mr. Earvin, the band director of Avondale High School, located in Decatur, Georgia. It was after playing a drum solo for him that Young C-Note proved he was made for music. Mr. Earvin was impressed with his skills, and offered him a snare-drum spot in the school's marching band drumline. In 2004, C-Note was chosen to participate in Morris Brown College's band camp. He was the youngest to attend the camp.
By the age of 16, Young C-Note was regularly visiting another local recording studio alongside his cousin Chocko Black of the All Profit Boyz. It was there that he recorded a song, titled "Home Of The Brave," produced by Shug Jones & JB also of the All Profit Boyz.
With a few years under his belt and the taste of recording in his mouth, C-Note decided to invest in some equipment of his own. The purchase of his own equipment and software brought on the self-discovery of his natural ability (in addition to already writing), to produce his own music. He began in his parents' basement and has continued on in professional recording studios today, working with audio engineers.
In the summer of 2007, C-Note, along with his business partner and friend, Melvin "Solo" Melton, started an independent record label, Major Playz Entertainment. Under their label, C-Note has produced music for several recording artists in the Atlanta area. He has also had the privilege of working alongside renown producers, such as Charm of Black Hustle, LLC.
C-Note's love and pursuit of music is not his only goal. He hopes to start a non-profit organization to help teens with drug, alcohol, and tobacco addictions to "stop committing suicide." He also has big plans to build restaurants and lounges across the nation, and to publish his (not yet complete) novel, "Far From Paradise."
