ABOUT KEYZ THE PRODUCER With 15 years of music production, artist development, and overall industry experience- Faraji has evolved to be a sought entertainment consultant in the music business. Born and raised in Miami, Florida (while mastering the piano, cello, and drums as an adolescent), it was evident a career in music would soon be on the horizon. He began producing music at the age of 12. In 2001, While attending Miami Beach Sr. High, Faraji signed his first management deal at 15 to Keith Mitchell of After 7. He collaborated with Gorilla Tek, Ball Greezy, Benzino, Stevie J, and contributed to tracks for Trina, Trick Daddy, and Jaheim. While organizing studio operations, Faraji also built a catalog of over 500 songs & tracks. It was during this time that Faraji would land his biggest placement as a producer/composer with his co-production in “Medusa” by Chris Brown (2010). From film scores to scoring stage plays they all speak to his creative and artistic side.  In 2018, Faraji advanced his current skill sets by becoming a certified digital/social media marketer and founded IBA, Icon Breaking Agency later that year: a consulting agency specializing in branding and marketing in the entertainment sector.
