BETA Records - Your music matters!

Born Andrew Darnell Henderson,Nov.25,1984.I was raised in a single parent home.My father left me at the age of 6 never to return.My mother is a strong black woman who struggled to make ends meet during my entire childhood.Im the oldest of my mothers 3 children,im also the only male.I first took interest in music when i heard Eazy-E and N.W.A..I was further influenced by Spice 1,Dr.Dre,2Pac,Biggie,and Jay-Z.I've been rapping since i was 14.I produce(make beats),mix,pre-master,and screw n chop.I dropped out of high school because the streets was callin for me but,during high school i used to start freestyle sessions at da lunch tables and before and after school me and a couple homies used to wreck da bus stops wit the hardest freestyles u could here in town.I learned how to make beats by watching other people do it and just playing around with keyboards.My main focus was to be a producer but i figured the only way i would get my beats heard was if i rapped on them,plus i have a story to tell.I produced alot of beats for local artist in Cleveland such as PillzBerry DoeBoy,Atech(Loose Cannons),Don P,DJ Black Saun,Urban Survival Ent,Sway(Block Bleeda'z),and Bud White.I have performed at alot of venues in Ohio from Cleveland,Cleveland Hts.,Akron,Warren,and Youngstown.I feel like i've grown so much as a independant artist just alone in Ohio and im mentally & physically ready to make big decisions and power moves.Now im on a mission to the top to show the world what i got!
