As a young child Thomas was always curious on how things worked from the inside out. He would take every electronic device he could find and strip them apart just to put them back together. He received the love of music at a young age from his mother, Beverly Thomas. She was an amazing songtress and would always take him to the recording studio to sit in on the sessions.
Music wasn't somethng that he always wanted to do. It was just that gift that God placed in him and he was a natural at. His interest didn't peak until around the age of thirteen. In 2006, Thomas relocated from Detroit to Atlanta with his family. He started out with small set up that included a Digidesign Mbox, with a baby blue interface on a MXL 990 microphone and a Dell computer. Thomas was panning and stacking vocals without even knowing that it was the right thing to do. He just trusted his keen sense of hearing and produced the clearest sound around in his area and high school.
In 2013, he got his big shot in the music industry through his mentor Coach K. He became the Head Recording and Mixing engineer for Quality Control Records in Atlanta. In 2017 he was made A & R of the label as well.
During this time at the studio Thomas has worked on several albums and track sessions such as Culture I and II; Young Rich Nation; Heartbreak on a Full Moon; Black Panties, Teenage Emotions and 7/27 just to name a few. He has also work along side some of music's most influential artist such as Migos, Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, Cardi B, Drake, Fifth Harmony, Lil Yatchy, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, Kyle, Chance the Rapper, Gucci Mane, Future, Macklemore, Tee Grizzley, Katy Perry, Calvin Harris, Ty Dolla $igns, YG,Nick Cannon, Lil Pump, 2 Chainz, Lil Baby, A$AP Ferg, Khalid, Metro Boomin, Kamaiyah, DJ Mustard, Young Jezzy, R. Kelly, Rich The Kid, Yo Gotti, French Montana, Honorable C Note, Young Thug, Snoop Dogg, Jermaine Dupri, Twista, Pee Wee Longway, Tyga, Meek Mills, Lil Durk, Soulja Boy,Wale,Trey Songz, 808 Mafia, Que, Snootie Wild, Riff Raff, Drumma Boy, K Camp, Shy Glizzy, Young Scooter,Young Dalph and Young Dro.
In the next five years, Thomas aspires the help push envelope of awareness of the engineer's role in the process from beginning to the end of making clarity music. Engineers are essential to the artist you see today. They are the glue that brings the artists, the recording labels, the managers and the major companies all together.
