Born and raised in Prince George’s County, Maryland, JL Beatz is a 21-year old producer who takes music production very seriously. When he first started producing music in 2016, he did not have access to a laptop and was forced to make beats on his smartphone until he was able to access a laptop. In 2017, JL Beatz executively produced his first EP by DMV artist, ACE. It was a huge milestone for the producer and he finally felt like he got his foot in the door. As time went on, JL Beatz found a great amount of success as a producer. He has produced multiple songs for DMV artist and Roc Nation’s very own, Q Da Fool. JL Beatz has also worked with other DMV artists like Goonew, Trapsquad Gang, ShugDaTrappa and many more. JL Beatz has also worked with Kansas City Chiefs running back, Le’Veon Bell. Although JL Beatz has gained quite a bit of success, he’s very far from being satisfied when it comes to the goals he has set for himself in music production. He wants to produce music for major hip hop artists like Megan Thee Stallion, Gunna, NBA YoungBoy and many more. Aside from producing, JL Beatz is also an artist and has multiple singles on all platforms.
