Shelby "Beaatz" Sappier is a 19 year old aboriginal recording artist/producer who started writing lyrics by the year of 2005. Gradually he improved to become what he is today. By the early year of 2008, he began using a software known as "Fruity Loops Studio" which was introduced to him from a childhood friend. After using the program and picking up a few self taught techniques, he started producing beats that were "track" worthy. Later down the road, he began "sampling" which he picked up on fairly quickly. With his drums already knockin' .. All the beat was missing, was the perfect sample. Putting both together, consistantly using creative work within the beat .. He perfected his beat game. Three years later, he's producing beats for artists including himself that get the attention from fans that feel reaal "hip-hop." He continues to use his work as his motivation and hopes to gain the respect from other artists and producers to remind them where their roots came from. Just know this.. an artist cannot make music without "beaatz."
