Explain who you are for those who don’t know.
My name is Bethany, but I go by Ace. I’m an up-and-coming music producer who also owns my own label.
How did you come up with your name?
I came up with the name because in a card game that is your highest card and when you think of ace you think of someone who has high morals and qualities.
Where are you from?
Charlotte, North Carolina
What’s it like growing up where you’re from?
It’s just the normal everyday life. Like most places, there are some areas better than others. I’ve moved around a lot. I grew up in a single parent home, just me and my mom. I’ve learned that Charlotte has its ups and downs and every community is different. My mom worked hard and always tried to make sure when we moved, it was somewhat safe. Not everthing is Perfect.
How did you get into music?
I’ve been playing drums since I was 4 and my Parents both have musical talents, so I guess it’s just in my genes. My mom sings and my Pops plays all instruments. I’ve always had an ear for music. My mom told me that before I could I barely talk; I was singing parts of songs before the first lyric dropped.
What makes you different than other artists?
I’m different because I have a young heart with an old soul filled with different sounds that I think can only be expressed by me. And they are great sounds that I think the world needs to hear. My range of sounds stems from some of my greatest inspirations like Tupac, who I refer to as the politician of rap and goes all the way to the mellow sounds of Bob Marley and list goes on. My music is a mixture of all these sounds and I believe that the right mix could spark another flame in this world and bring real music back to life.
What are you currently working on?
I’m currently working on finding and signing new artists with true talent. I’m working on producing new beats and promoting my label.
