Daniel Andrew Johnson (born December 20, 1986), professionally known as Kane Beatz, is an American record producer and songwriter from Orlando, Florida.[1]
Johnson's first success as a music producer came while he was still in high school selling his beats on the internet. Working with artists such as Micah T from Invasion Productions, he was soon contacted by Mike Caren, Executive Vice President of A&R for Atlantic Records, who signed him to a publishing contract with the label.[2] [3]
Since then, Kane founded his own label called The Building. The first artist signed was The Mad Violinist.[4] Since then he signed songwriter Kief Brown and producer Jeremy "JMIKE" Coleman, who signed in a joint venture with Dr. Luke's Prescription Songs.
Johnson tags most of his beats with a robotic male voice saying, "Kane is in the building, n***a."[5]
He has stated that his favorite producers and largest musical influences are Timbaland, Dr. Dre, and Mannie Fresh.[6]
