DJ B. Original is a native of St. Louis. His interest for hip-hop began when he was 5 years old after hearing "Rapper's Delight." As he got older, he continued to be driven by his love of spoken word and rhythms. He started DJing and what started as a hobby eventually turned to him pursuing it as a career.
After years of paying dues as a DJ, B. Original became one of the most well known DJ's in St. Louis. At this point he started to produce, working with the Midwest hip-hop collective known as Jus Us League. Shortly after, B.Original was introduced to Jason "Jay E" Epperson, producer for
Nelly and the St. Lunatics, through a mutual friend. Jay E taught B.Original most of his studio techniques.
In order to expand his knowledge and skills, B.Original eventually moved to New York City and began working with the legendary DJ Chuck Chillout after joining his record pool. After honing his skills to razor sharp precision, B.Original made a move to Los Angeles. He met Prodigal Sunn from the mighty Sunz of Man/Wu-Tang Clan which led to him producing most of Prodigal's debut album "Return of the Prodigal Sunn."
