Mike Beatz - Heaven

Mike Beatz is a Jamaican hip-hop artist, producer and writer and his production resume includes T-Pain’s "Reborn", Capone N Noreaga’s "Bring It Here", Trina’s "Rich Girl" and many more. In 2009, he stared a side project (Wizard Sleeve) with a close friend and frequent collaborator Lex One and one of their first releases “Me Plus You” released on Southern Fried Records (owned by fatboy slim) went on to be re-released on Ministry Of Sound as the smash hit "Riverside (Let's Go)" in 2010. "Riverside" went on to sell over 96,000 copies in its first week topping the iTunes sales charts and landing #1 on the charts. Due to this success, they were able to tour for two-years, building a strong international fan base and during that period of time we were blessed enough to work with top tier artists such as: Deadmau5, Diplo & Switch (Major Lazer), Dev, Tinie Tempah, Sway, S.A.S, Professor Green & others. In 2011 while on tour overseas with Wizard Sleeve, Mike Beatz released an independent solo-LP entitled Boom Bap with Norwegian producer Adonis. The solo-project was an ode to the classic sound and featured guest appearances from Guilty Simpson, Royce Da 5'9, AZ, Termanology, Skyzoo, Sha Stimuli & Wrekonize (¡MAYDAY!) and received 36,000 downloads in its first month and got placements on top sites such as XXL, Hip Hop Dx, Nah Right and even getting spins from DJ Premier on his radio show. Mike Beatz is back and is releasing a new music video for his self produced track "Heaven." Shot in the everglades of Florida, Beatz teams up with director Noel Rosado on this eerie cinematic visual.
