JEDI KEYZ

In 2011 Jedi released 2 Beat-Tapes "Totally Mind F#cked" & "I Never Wana Grow Up" which were country-wide Beat-Tapes ft. producers all over the country & a Beat-Tape ft. one of A$AP Rocky & Spaceghost Purpp's producers "A$AP Jermz" titled "Remember The Music". Jedi also released 2 solo beat tapes "Pray For Me" in December 2012 and "Project Gold" in April of 2013 and also another solo beat-tape "Enough Is Enough" August, 2013 which reached over 1,000 views over night. (His most successful beat-tape to date.)

In 2011 Jedi featured in RapStar Magazine along side of Wiz Khalifa & Rick Ross, Jedi Keyz also featured in 3 time award winning magazine S.Vision in 2012 and Wrist Band Connection magazine for wrist bands like Live strong, anti-bullying & breast cancer in 2013 which he was told He was an inspiration. Jedi has also appeared in blogs such as Underground Hip Hop Stars in 2013 and OuttiMoe blog along side of Tia London & Trinidad James in 2011 and 2012 just to name a few. not to mention his recent beat-tape "Enough Is Enough" not only reaching over 1,000 views over night, it also landed itself on multiple blog sites like Hipstrumentals (On Its Own).

In September of 2012, Jedi Keyz On The Beat met up with "Romeo" of the Lost Boyz. a 2 time grammy winning group in the 1990s and romeo who is now "Romedollarz" of Bricksquad Mafia. Romedollarz heard of Jedi Keyz an signed him to his and his wife jackie's management company Krazirome Productions Inc. LLC in September 2012. Jedi Keyz is no longer under KRP but is still business related. In Late 2012 Jedi Keyz produced the 3rd single from Romedollarz of Bricksquad's album "Start Again", from his album that released in Feb. 2013 "How You Make Me Feel". originally featuring Drake of YMCMB but Drake was not released on the album version of the single.

In 2013 Jedi produced a collaboration track for a up n coming Mississippi artist with MadeSicc artist C.O.S who is signed with Brotha Lynch Hung who's signed with Tech N9ne's label Strange Music. Jedi has also produced a single for New York's own Fes Taylor, a underground celebrity and affiliate of Wu Tang Clan, Jedi has produced his single "Blasting Off" sold in stores. Also Jedi Keyz is in the process of producing a single for C.O.S after the collaboration of producing a song featuring him on the hook. So Jedi's major credits are climbing and looks like they will continue to climb.

Jedi Keyz got discovered by world famous actress/model Kim Lee from Maxim Magazine & The Hangover 2 movie in December 2012 on the internet an linked him with a affiliate for Eazy E's label Ruthless Records and Dr. Dre's label Aftermath, William Lao who contacted A&R/Talent scout Stevie V at Aftermath which ended on a positive note but Jedi is still a independent producer and quickly rising to the top. Jedi also been looked at by RBC Records in 2013 which he was given positive feedback but RBC was not currently looking to sign producer's at the moment but still his moves continue to speak volumes such as him getting noticed by Trackboyz A&R (The production team behind Nelly Air Force Ones, Nappy Roots Po Folks, and J-Kwon Typsey) Though Jedi Keyz doesnt personally work with Trackboyz he was working personally with there A&R.

Jedi Keyz is the underdog that has worked his way from the bottom and climbing to the top on pure dedication, motivation and devotion. Jedi Keyz was also sponsored by a clothing line in South Carolina "Devine Souls Clothing". Its fair to say Regardless of any circumstances Jedi Keyz will continue to surprise the industry with his "Knocking doors down" method of grinding. From producing underground artists to producing with major industry people and being involved in major industry productions and projects with no production deal or at this time even management says a lot about his will power to succeed and his well rounded and go-getter attitude.
