The ever expanding James Boyd has only one thought in mind when approaching a new song: make it better than the last one. Producing since he was 14 and rapping since he was 10, this 22 year-old’s young career has only just begun but already surpasses many. With background in piano and drums, his production style is unconventional and always climatic ranging from cinematic type themes to fast paced synthesized–laden beats.. As a rapper he pushes to connect with his audience with thought provoking but catchy lyrics and topics that leave listeners feeling as if he’s speaking specifically to that individual. From an early age Boyd has built a network of relationships with several artists, producers, DJs, and engineers that is steadily growing which is key to his success including Chicago legends Rhymefest and 1st & 15th artist GemStones. He’s constantly feeding off the talents and different perspectives of those he meets to make the best music and his electric performances span Chicagoland. His music has been featured on popular blog sites such as illcity.com and gowherehiphop.com and is currently in LA recording and releasing his first funk/house album and debut "Omega," and his second rap project "Since Ya’ll Like To Play Stupid" is to follow shortly thereafter. People say “the sky is the limit,” and James’ mind state is, “Why stop there?”

Any song I post on here is produced entirely and solely by me.
