In high school, Antonio churned out ten beats a day. Initially, Antonio wanted to help his friends, and started making beats so that he could have music for them to rap over. However, he eventually turned his full attention toward hip hop production. As he continued to sharpen his production skills, while still in high school, he began to utilize online social media platforms, such as Instagram, to network with more established rap artists as well as beat submissions for potential music placements.
