So lets start here. I go by the name of Lexx Samplez. My mom calls me Alejandro, growing up I was Alex, & my last name is Sanchez....but it's Lexx Samplez to you.
Im from Northeast Los Angeles, CA. I am a producer, rapper, singer, & songwriter, with proficient engineering skills. I am founder of the music collectiveTHE TAKERZ CLUB & 1/2 of the production duo YxNG HOMi3z, along with my co-producer Sp_ce Phantom. I am also a member of NEBASOBA, a collective founded by longtime collaborator & bestfriend Eskiiis. I have a degree in Music Production from the Los Angeles Recording School. For as long as I can remember, music has ALWAYS been a big part of my life. Being born & raised in Los Angeles, "the entertainment capitol of the world", the music culture out here has really taken over my life. I've always been open to all types of music, but the genre's I ended up falling in love with were Hip-Hop & R&B/Soul. The earliest memory of music I have was around the time when 50 Cent dropped his debut album "Get Rich or Die Tryin" & I would hide out in my bedroom ALL DAY studying that album front to back. My mom would scream at me from the living room telling me to turn it down before the neighbors complained. Not so long after, my mom also bought me a copy of Usher's album "Confessions" that I played to the point where the CD didn't wanna play anymore. My love for hip-hop & R&B music became permanent ever since. |
At the age of 12 was when I decided to write my first song. I guess for the most part that was when I decided to take music serious. I started off writing raps & recording myself with Eskiiis . At that same age I had also taught myself how to play the guitar & bass. I became obsessed with the creation of music & I knew it was something I will be doing for the remainder of my life. Once high school came around, I went on to release multiple singles & a couple of independent projects/mixtapes locally within the next couple of years, which generated a buzz for me in the N.E.L.A. (Northeast Los Angeles) area.
