Influenced by DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Havoc, Alchemist & Rza to name a few, Joey Bags has been like a sponge. Soaking up all the different ways tracks were made and flipped. He recalls an alchemist line that has stuck with him for a while now, "There's nothin to it, but to do it." he adds, "Like i said, if you can't go 100% and give it your all, what is the use? I'm up all day and night in the lab doing what i love and never regret a minute of it."

The street audience is often neglected by many producers in favor of creating popular hits for mainstream artists. Joey bags isn't worried about that because the streets is where it started and a radio hit isn't what made him get where he's at.

The feeling of receiving the respect and admiration from my peers and fans as artists now for my work is much greater. respect will last forever, the money won't." Joey Bags is on his way, trying to keep the streets still involved and hip hop a float from the mediocre music on the radio. "Hip Hop has definitely changed as a whole, for good and bad" he adds, "The game is too flashy, get your money but don't shit on the game. The business, radio, television, style and sound is different but has brought a lot of us together. What genre of music can bring cats from every ethnicity together like hip hop music?" With plenty of years ahead of him, Joey Bags is someone you'll be familiar with.

Joey Bags has produced records for artists such as; Styles P, Sheek Louch, St. Laz, Pottersfield, Chozen Few, Agallah, Murda Mook, Infamous Mobb, S.A.S., & MORE!
