SOUL MAFIA FAMILY MEMBER: GABE HOLLAND aka LORD OF BEATZ

Before Def For Life was founded, Gabe Holland had many names in the industry. When Daneja met him in 1993 he was known as Ace G. then he became (gulp! he's gonna kill me for this...) Cisco Kid, Thank God that didn't last long. Then came Quicksilver. No matter what he was in the past, nothing stood out better than Lord of Beatz. Koalishun gave Gabe that name mainly because at the time his long hair made him look like a picture of Jesus. To top that title off, he did bring the gospel to the beat. He and Daneja started Def For Life Records in May 1994. Having already produced tracks for Koalishun, Daneja, Naive (now known as The True), and many other Hip-Hop acts; he decided to move onto different genres. One of these moves made a member of Rock groups Jones Ave., San Francisco Blue with Jefferson Airplane's Bob Harvey, Superczar, and The Sixes. Not the one to forget from whence he came, Gabe is now working on his first Hip-Hop project since 1995.
