Compton, CA, USA

The land of the sunshine and palm trees, southern California, is home to a legendary legacy in the fabric of hip-hop. It’s also the birthplace of multi-faceted hip-hop producer, Roc Steady, whose grind and dedication to the craft is leading him down the road to success. ​ Roc Steady got his start in the game by hanging around his cousins, members of the Compton collective, Madd Nation. In the wake of the new millennium, they scored a regional hit with “Hotel Motel,” which caught the attention of rapper/producer DJ Quik, and Suga Free, who promptly remade/re- released the song, which was followed by an LP. Their success — and recording deal — was a major inspiration that drove Roc to start his career in the game. ​ He’s noted that he draws influences from producers like Battlecat, DJ Quik, Dre, Neptunes, and Phunk Beta.
