KJeih Bio
Born November 11, 1982, self proclaimed Pop Rock/ Pop R&B/ Techno- Dance/ HipHop producer Kevin "KJeih" Butts Jr. began mastering his craft at an early age as a drummer. Searching for that unique sound KJeih began his journey as a young musician banging on pots and pans in his mother's kitchen. Once becoming tall enough, KJeih gave the pots and pans up for some real drums. He started out with no sense of timing, yet great potential and kept at it. He knew that there was nothing that practice could not fix.
As time and skills progressed KJeih became a drummer at one of the most profound and prestige church ministries in Chicago, Prayer and Faith Outreach Ministries; where he taught himself style, placement and many different techniques. Attending Simeon Career Academy KJeih the drum-line section leader played in the marching, concert, and jazz band; received a superior rating three out of the four years of attendance. He later became a professional drummer/percussionist playing for local and recording bands. He recorded several gospel, pop, and R&B records.
In 1998, KJeih expanded from behind the drums to behind the beat machine. Working in many studios the love for engineering and production work helped him to make the most important decision of his career path. From this decision he started his very own independent production company, Ksoundd Productions later incorporated in 2008 as Ksoundd Inc.
While impressively balancing his hit making capabilities, KJeih rapidly established himself as one of the uniquest producers beyond the Chicagoland area. After many years of hurtles and hard work, he finally launched "SOUND CHECK" in March 2008 his first album introducing the world to his diverse and unique sound. KJeih's outlandish production style and remarkable sense of individuality has no boundaries.
In 2011, KJeih discovered a passion for continuing his education in music as a Music Production major at Full Sail University Online while working and building relationships with other producers and artists who share the same passion.
