24: What made you want to be a producer?
Jimmy Beanz: Just coming up with different ideas and the love for it. Ever since I was in Junior High School I was always fascinated with making beats. my friends would rap & dance to it an it made me feel good to see that Hearing songs on the radio was always interesting to me I was always asking my self how do they make music like that? Then from there I use to always sneak to listen to music on the radio an mimic the tunes an sounds with my hands an mouth(my mother an father never liked me listening to the radio they thought it was bad for me to take in growing up) I just really started loving music at young age for real.
24: Describe your production style?
Jimmy Beanz: I try not to have a style. I like to be every when making my music. I don’t like when anyone can pinpoint my tracks when it plays.
For example, I want people to say “Who made that beat or wow I wasn’t expecting that from him i thought he only made this type of music”
so having a style is not really in my interest.
24: Which producers in the game right now inspire you?
Jimmy Beanz: There is so many for me to name to I’ll tell you my Top 5 1.Dre 2.Timbaland 3.Kanye West 4.Pharrelland 5.Polow Da Don.
24: What do you feel like you are bringing to the music world with your production and why should an artist want to work with you compared to another up and coming producer?
Jimmy Beanz: I’m making sure I bring new energy. I’m just trying to bring something new to the table. I feel that an artist would & will want to work with me for a number of reasons because I will always make the artist feel comfortable. I would never would try to put them under any pressure
making sure we have a under standing when we have a disagreement.
Because at the end of the day the plan is to make history.
24: Who are some artist you would love to work with in the near future?
Jimmy Beanz: There are a lot of artist I would love to work with
but at the same time it doesn’t really matter to me as long as we have a good vibe with each other that’s all I care about.
24: How is the industry treating you as far as being an up and coming producer trying to get into the game?
Jimmy Beanz: Trying to get into this game you will go through your ups and downs. It’s a grind and only the strong will survive and I will definitely be there at the end. I have a lot of project coming up so stay on the look out for that in 2008.
24: Do you have any plans of starting a label later on and have artist or do you just want to keep focusing on being the best producer possible?
Jimmy Beanz: I do have plans on starting a label but not right now. I’m just focusing on shopping my music and dealing with several up and coming artist to get my name up and make great records. So for now I’m working on being the best their is the best at what I do.
