Early Life and Background
DJ Nasty and LVM were both born in Cuba, and came to the United States in 1978 due to their father being in the Navy and "wanted a change in scenery", states Nasty. DJ Nasty early on met DJ Khaled and another associate named Ceaser and started Hitmen Productions. They were doing local house parties and renting out halls, and soon started to make a big name for themselves in Orlando, Florida. The group eventually broke up due to DJ Khaled moving to New Orleans, Louisiana, with his parents because they owned a clothing store there. Today, Khaled and Ceaser are still good friends with Nasty. DJ Nasty & DJ Khaled have a management company "We The Best Management" which houses the super producers The Runners.
DJ Nasty's first track was actually Krayzie Bone's "Thug Alwayz" on Krayzie's Thug Mentality 1999 (1999). But DJ Nasty is not too fond of that record, and actually considers the beat he did for Fat Joe "The Wild Life" to be his true first track. LVM started out doing a record for 95 South called "Cheer For Me" which can be heard on the Bring It On soundtrack, as well as numerous remixes for the likes of Jordan Knight and Shaquille O'Neal. LVM dabbled in the pop market producing "Baby Be Mine" for pop group L.F.O.
Success started to take off when DJ Nasty befriended DTP's Co-CEO Chaka Zulu and landed a few placements with Ludacris in 2003 for his Chicken-n-Beer album's "Southern Fried Intro". DJ Nasty & LVM have formed Nasty Beatmakers Productions, and has signed up-and-coming producers The Inkredibles (Ace Hood's "Ride" and Young Jeezy's "Vacation") to the fold, and are actively looking for new talent.

Famous quotes containing the words early life, early, life and/or background:
“... business training in early life should not be regarded solely as insurance against destitution in the case of an emergency. For from business experience women can gain, too, knowledge of the world and of human beings, which should be of immeasurable value to their marriage careers. Self-discipline, co-operation, adaptability, efficiency, economic management,—if she learns these in her business life she is liable for many less heartbreaks and disappointments in her married life.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
“I have always had something to live besides a personal life. And I suspected very early that to live merely in an experience of, in an expression of, in a positive delight in the human cliches could be no business of mine.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
“The wind sprang up at four o’clock
The wind sprang up and broke the bells
Swinging between life and death”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment; that background which the painter may not daub, be he master or bungler, and which, however awkward a figure we may have made in the foreground, remains ever our inviolable asylum, where no indignity can assail, no personality can disturb us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
