It all began when he used to sneak in his older cousins room in the 80's and listen to Rakim, Gangstarr, & BlackSheep cd's before he even knew what hiphop was. He wanted to do music. It all began when he got his first keyboard and taught himself how to play. Anger gave his talent dedication. Sadness gave his art emotion. Depression gave his music reason. Love allowed his art to be universal. Coop D'Ville has been producing, rapping, playing instruments, and writing and reading poetry since 1987. It didn't get serious until he got a technics organ / workstation. It was over from there. In 1993 he signed a contract with L.T.D. (Love, Togetherness, & Devotion) - former band for Jeffrey Osbourne ("Love Ballad" and "On the Wings of Love") - and this is where he learned many core business lesssons in the music industry. He has done shows with Chaka Kahn, Phil Perry, Musiq Soulchild, The Dells, Tank, Force MD's, Al Johnson (Euniphics), Kandi Johnson (XSCAPE), Tony Tone Tony, & Freddie Jackson just to name a few. In less than a year after signing with L.T.D., he found him self in a Bayshore NYC recording studio working with Wu-tang affiliated rap group the Gravediggaz (Poetic and Frukwan).

Unaware of his potential and lacking legal counsel, he turned down a recording contract with Sharpshooters productions and decided to further his education @ Bowie State University. Eventually, he stopped performing with L.T.D. when legal problems arose with the use of the name L.T.D. and decided to make Hiphop & R&B production his main focus. He met numerous individuals at Bowie State University that helped shape his art and musical influences. Eventually, the ills of life and deep thought clouded his mind with the death of his mother and no spiritual guidance. After many nights of enlightenment, loneliness, and strong desire, he found knowledge of self. Since the inception of his talent, he has subonciously attracted his entire family of friends to musical expression and he now stands with a very strong empire that supports him. He is multi-talented and plays the piano, guitar (electric, classical, bass, & electric acoustic), keyboards, and turn tables. Overall, he wants to share the thoughts, dreams, nightmares, and situations he has been through - the days where he got closer with death, and the nights where he had crazy beautiful moments with heaven. Listen, and understand...prepare for new data to drop soon...

I'm currently living back in the DMV area workin a 9 to 5, playing PS4 when I get time, making beats on my laptop and Technics Organ Workstation, and playing keyboard and guitar for R&B bands, including a band named Diversified (http://www.reverbnation.com/diversifiedband).  I'm currently doing gigs around the DC/MD/VA area.  If you want to book me as your keyboard player, want beats, or want guitar/piano lessons - hit me with a message.
