Blake Knight is a songwriter, producer and artist from Dallas, TX. Blake's interest in music would start at an early age and would evolve into a successful career that would span the globe. Early attempts to start bands failed until Knight paired up with long time friend/rapper "Playdough." After having several members come and go the two would start the band "ill harmonics" and gained their 15 minutes of fame on MTV's "The Cut" show hosted by Lisa Lopes in 1998. They garnered success on the heels of their sophomore release "Take Two" and would be a featured act on the traveling music festival "Festival Con Dios". While Blake enjoyed the artist lifestyle his love for writing and production would soon be his focus. Blakes talent has lead him to work with such artists as Paula Abdul, MUTEMATH, Peter Daily, E-Roc, Playdough, LA Symphony, Pigeon John, Pax 217, P.O.D. and several others.
