Artist History The Keiande Song & DOC Pro Entertainment Alliance Keith Andes: The Super Producer (CEO of Keiande Song, Inc) (as told by Tamrah Collins) The oldest of four boys, Keith Andes started playing the piano at the age of five, and he wrote his first song at twelve. Raised in Long Island City, New York, Keith grew up with the support of his mother and father who was a singer in a group called the “Zionneers” and worked at a grocery store, while living in the projects, which made Keith Andes a survivor in the music game. So determined to excel, Keith started his songwriting for some of the hottest artist in the music business, which made him the industries best kept secret. He’s been actively producing for fourteen years, producing hits like AZ Yet’s, “Last Night”, “Pride and Joy” by Jon B and “My First Night With You” by Debra Cox. As a songwriter Keith finds his inspiration for songs by looking at his life and other peoples experiences. Keith has a zest for sound and a vision for flare and style in music that he creates, doing nothing less than gold and platinum hits. Keith’s advise for aspiring producers is to focus on the craft of producing, know the studio and the equipment and don’t focus on the money. Keith’s next projects include Ricky Jones, Az Yet, Carl Thomas and starting a record label with diverse music. The Story Behind The Association (Keiande Song, Inc & D.O.C. Pro Entertainment) It was the 1997 New Year’s Eve Celebration at AZUSA World Ministries in Phoenix, Arizona, where Dr. Michael (D.O.C.) Crudder met All-World “Super Producer”, Keith Andes (See Keith’s Discography). It just happened that they were both scheduled at the same time to assist supervising some 300 kids at AZUSA World Ministries’ Children Church. D.O.C. has always been a lover of all music but he never considered the business until this blessed meeting with the man who has played a major role in 20 million CD’s sold worldwide. Five years later, 50,000 pages of manuals and industry standard readings completed, and multiple years of hard work and tutoring by “The Super Producer”… D.O.C. formed D.O.C. Pro Entertainment Inc. in association with Keiande Song, Inc. on January 1, 2002.
