ARTIST NAME: MEMO
Raised in the South Side Jeffery Manor neighborhood,
Memo's hip hop heritage has its origins in his interactions
with the guys from his block.
Exposed to the legendary music of NWA, Public Enemy,
Marley Marl, A Tribe Called Quest, and Original
Flava Unit, Memo's development as a producer had
humble beginnings.
He purchased his first piece of equipment, a Casio
SKI, in 1991, which he used to loop samples from
the radio, which he would then give to his friends
to rap over. |

From this stage, he cultivated his sound throughout
the 1990's, acquiring a Gemini Mixer in 1994, an E Max
Keyboard in 1997, and finely an MPC2000 in 1998 which
he continues to use today.
He became a member of the Molemen in 1996, and has since
created such notorious beats as Rasco's "Guns still
hot".
Above all else, Memo strives to create honest music,and
in his own words believes that "sincere music speaks
for itself." Anticipate the release of his new beat
cd, "Lake Affect 4", currently in development. Written by Will Line |
