With a sound firmly rooted in the sampling from the 90s as well as the instrumentation of today, emcee/producer Maverick has become a very highly-demanded commodity these days. Originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, this Washington, DC transplant has been catching the attention of some very notable individuals since producing Quartermaine's "Strictly for the Disco", which was featured by Pete Rock and Peter Rosenberg (of New York's Hot 97.1FM) on the Cornerstone Mixtape. Since that time, Maverick has provided beats for underground artists like Low Budget's Cy Young and R&B newcomer Bilal Salaam, performed in shows with Jeru the Damaja and 88 Keys, as well as releasing his own solo instrumental project, The First Step, which has been garnering a lot of attention all across the globe. Hip-hop favorite Oddisee had these words to say about Maverick..."When it comes to digging for samples I must admit, I'm not the best at it. When you have friends like mine you don't have to be. Maverick and I have been friends for some time now, and his knowledge on hip-hop and records never ceases to amaze me." The demand keeps growing for the Maverick's production as he is contributing music to Brooklynite D.V. Alias Khryst (who has worked with artists such as Smoothe the Hustler, De La Soul and Marco Polo). In addition, Maverick is handling MC and production responsibilities in his collaborative effort with Bronx MC, MaG, who has worked with Skyzoo, Torae, and legendary producer, Buckwild.
