Born in New Jersey, he started making music at 13 after borrowing equipment from his father, who was also a musician. He started learning production in 1997 and began uploading tracks online. He first garnered wide attention with his remix of Jay-Z's Black Album, re-titled The Black and Tan Album. From there his workload ballooned, with a full-length collaborative album, The Art of Onemind, emerging in 2015 with Symbolyc One. A number of high-profile collabs followed, including production on Akrobatik's 2008 Absolute Value, and an album with Skyzoo in 2010, Live from the Tapedeck. He released his debut instrumental full-length Beh!nd the Curta!n in 2011. He moved to New York in 2012, around the same time that his track "The Morning" appeared on Cruel Summer, a compilation released on Kanye West's G.O.O.D. Music. He created his own company, Roseville Music Group, in 2014 to provide prodution across multiple genres. His next major release was a full-length album, Human, in tandem with Joell Ortiz in 2015, but his wide reach was better felt the following year, when he co-produced "You're Welcome" for the soundtrack of Disney's Moana. The work continued to flood in, with 2017 being exceptionally busy: He produced for Future, Khalid, Lil Uzi Vert, Bryson Tiller, A Boogie wit da Hoodie, and Meek Mill. The following year, he was drafted to work on Jay-Z and Beyonce's joint album Everything Is Love; one of many talented producers, he co-produced both "Heard About Us" and "Bigger Than You." ~ Liam Martin, Rovi
