on a farm.  He was introduced to music at an early age, using it as a means of escape, and

drums all across the country, his endeavors led him to move to Philadelphia PA where

music producer Carvin Haggins (Musiq Soulchild, Justin Timberlake, Tupac, Jill Scott,

Will Smith), legendary songwriter and vocalist Bunny Sigler (Let the Good Times Roll),

been featured in Mackie Gear's blog and podcast as an artist and producer. During his

time in Philly he has been an active part of the young adult community. He taught music

at Chester Community Charter School, and in his early years in Philly, volunteered at

the city of Philadelphia. Donterell McDuffie has been featured on 6 ABC, Showtime,
