Nisan Stewart was born and raised in Southern CA, and spent his formative years as a drummer in his father, Bishop Carl Stewart's church.

He and his brother Rapture keyboards and their father would travel to other churches around the country and community playing gospel music. Nisan says his upbringing in the Church had a definitive effect on his interest in music and most importantly the drums. As a child he recalls, "watching the drummers in church and wanting to be able to play drums.

Nisan attended Cerritos College and majored in English. After receiving his Associate degree he decided to pursue his life long hobby of playing the drums and landed his first gig with Sony recording artist Puff Johnson. They asked him to help out with a House of Blues Los Angeles show and at the time there were quite a few people there from the industry.

He began touring with them and producing beats for his manager, Sean Combs. He is currently building his own home studio. I'm thinking about wiring through to that room, but I'm still trying to decide if I want to do that or not. The construction alone has cost Nisan 30 thousand dollars so far. Though Nisan speculates that, "It's a lot of money sure but you can have one hot track.

Just one hit and it will pay for itself. When it comes to quality, Nisan goes all out for technology saying, "I'm probably going to use that new O2R board. I just bought the new Pro Tools HD system. I've got all my MIDI outboards. It's all sound proofed. Today they were putting in the floor, putting sound soap on the walls. It will be great cause' I'll be able to work from home and not have to travel so much.

I'm just trying to fix it so I can just have a spot to work out of that's my own. I'm tired of paying all these other studios all this money. It's comin' along great though. According to Nisan the process depends on the artist most of the time. So some artist are more outgoing. It's definitely better to go in with Missy Elliot. A lot of times we'll go in - I do a lot of production for her stuff and with other stuff, but to use her as an example we'll go in and do a bunch of tracks.

Just be in the studio, just vibe out.

Sometimes if I'm at home, like today I hot track and I'm gonna send it off to her. She's over in Scotland right now. Sometimes I like working by myself and then just giving it to them. I'll spend like a month there writing with her. And just have fun and knock it out. I work in Miami mostly. This year I'll spend most of the year in Miami.
