Lil Clip

CLIP is a multitalented 16-yr-old music producer from southern California. He’s igniting the hip-hop world and inspiring a new generation of fans with his breakthrough original songs, unique melodic style, lyrical swagger and solid hooks.



Classically trained to play the violin, piano and guitar, CLIP developed personal discipline and determination beyond his years and is offering his powerfully positive unique vision to the hip-hop, pop and other genres. He released his first single, “ROLLIN” on through online music stores in the summer of 2007. In February 2008, “BUMPIN” and “SUMMER GIRL” were added to the digital record collection.



With a fresh interpretation and solid body of work comprising almost 100 varied compositions, CLIP is becoming an acclaimed music producer, songwriter and recording artist. He is developing the “music producer” skills to match any industry veteran and is collaborating with the industry’s best.



CLIP completed production of the much-anticipated album in July 2008. With 15 original songs recorded over 2 years, “Novice of Perfection” was well received when it was released on September 23, 2008. The album features original music and lyrics including intense collaborations with several up n’comers. It garnered the attention of peers and industry for songwriting ability and performance on the song “Sick On” which received special recognition from the Malibu Music Awards. The song also made it to the exclusive list of Semi-Finalists for the 2008 Independent Music World Series and was selected for worldwide distribution as part of a double-disc compilation through London based Sonic Vogue Records.



With “Novice of Perfection” under his belt, CLIP is gearing up for his second album release on the Sickman Records label. His forthcoming album, entitled “The Creation” is already creating a buzz.



In addition to his work as a recording artist, CLIP has worked on a soundtrack song for a planned baseball documentary, "The Untold Truth" (produced by Wrapped Productions). He was also a consulting producer for the stage play “Reine” which is written and directed by accomplished actor and film producer Ron Recasner. In 2009, his song “What Keeps Me Grinding?” was picked up for the soundtrack on the Alex Ardenti film “Dexter Jackson: Unbreakable”.



In 2010, CLIP is heating things up with a new dance track featuring Kaela Freeman. He is also currently scheduled to play "Layton" in the Neon Lions Productions series Which Way. To prepare for this role, he's been working closely with the show's Creator/Director Bill Herndon (ESP/Atlantic Records) in NYC.
