Artist description The local Cleveland artists kept asking Kamakaze K to make beats, so after some research into the mp3.com scene, the studio would be used to make quality beats for use on demos, battles, live, etc. The only catch is that any artist who wants to make money commercially using these beats must purchase them outright. Copyrights are held by us in the meantime. Inside Track teamed up with Kamakaze K over the internet and all material collaborated on is transfered that way, track by track, sequence data and samples as well! Kamakaze K has been doing composition since age 13 and is now 28. Inside Track won't indulge that info and keeps ultra-incognito on biographical subjects, including equipment of his own. He lives in Canada.

Artist History Kamakaze K has done a synthesizer seminar for the Suzuki Method music workshops, has been a part of Crooked Pictures/Tiberius/a few other projects, has recorded and mastered and post-produced many, many projects. He has also built a very efficient and powerful studio after many years of gear collecting, DJing, sound-teching, performing, and structuring. Kamakaze K can also sing to a point where yall would say, "Damn!", no kiddin! The beats he's used to doing for his own personal projects were mostly R&B and classic rap oriented, so some styles of those types mix into these beats a lot! The "Insult#5 Yo' Mamma Song" on www.mp3.com/insultingyourmamma comedy page is a song done by Kamakaze K in helping to record and promote that page.
