Production, Songwriting and Sound Engineering
Maybe it’s the piercing eyes with a bad boy demeanor. Most likely it's consistently bringing the hottest new-school fire hip hop has seen since Kanye West. When it comes to shining a new light in the history of hip hop the comparison is clear. As a classically trained pianist and violist expectations to perform began at age 5. This new school sensation’s journey into production began in Virginia. Hailing from a land of such greats as Timbaland, Pharrell Williams, Chris Brown and Missy Elliot (just to name a few) the pressure for greatness sure isn't small. But with a calm stride all can be seen is the pleasure.
Tracks like “Insane” showcase middle eastern samples, live orchestration, trance and bangin' drums. This sort of modern day empresario-ism leaves visitors of his Los Angeles recording studio simply, astonished.
Playing the role as Los Angeles production underdog and every month proving most improved player can’t be easy. The potential for growth is what gives an artist future value and a long term seat in music history. In this case, potential for musical genius is too obvious to avoid.
What is a Viola?
A person who plays the viola is called a violist or simply a viola player. While it is similar to the violin, the technique required for playing viola has many differences, although much of the fingering technique is comparable. The difference in size accounts for some of the technical differences, as notes are spread out farther along the fingerboard and the vibrato must be broader. The less responsive strings and heavier bow warrant a somewhat different bowing technique.
Violin vs. Viola
* The Viola is bigger than the Violin ;).
* The viola has bigger strings too.
* The viola has a lower pitch range, the sound of a viola is deeper and fuller.
* The thicker and longer strings demand that the violist learn a more difficult playing technique.
* The viola has a wider bow than a violin.
* If a viola and violin were alive, the viola is clearly "the man." lol.
