BORN JANUARY 15, 1972 IN 3RD WARD HOUSTON, TX, JEFFREY TREMAINE BETTER KNOWN AS SADIK “BEAsTMASTER” MCNEIL, EXHIBITED A SINCERE LOVE FOR MUSIC AT AN EARLY AGE. THE NEPHEW OF THE LATE, GREAT JAZZ AND BLUES PERFORMER, EDDIE "CLEANHEAD" VINSON & COUSIN OF LONG TIME RADIO PERSONALITY, RUDY V., MUSIC IN HIS FAMILY WAS NOT ONLY A GIFT TO BE CHERISHED, BUT A WAY OF LIFE. HIS SINGLE MOTHER FED IS EARLY AUDITORY CRAVINGS WITH A NEVERENDING SUPPLY OF SUCH LEGENDARY ARTISTS AS STEVIE WONDER, MINNIE RIPPERTON, MARVIN GAYE, GEORGE BENSON, RONNIE LAWS, AND COUNTLESS OTHERS. INFATUATED WITH MUSIC, SADIK STARTED DJ'ING AT THE TENDER AGE OF 10 YEARS OLD AND WAS PRODUCING HIP HOP BY THE AGE OF 17. SADIK EXPERIENCED HIS FIRST TASTE OF SUCCESS IN THE RECORD INDUSTRY IN 1992 WHEN HIS GROUP "MASTA-MINDZ" SINGLE "HOW TIGHT" RECIEVED LIMITED AIR-PLAY IN THE HOUSTON AREA. LATER SADIK FORMED ANOTHER GROUP WITH HIGH SCHOOL FRIEND AND BUSINESS PARTNER PATRIC WEAVER(THA'JOKER), ALSO KNOWN AS DARIUS M. SLAUGHTER. "ARCANE ASYLUM" PLAYED THE UNDERGROUND CIRCUIT & PERFORMED GIGS IN HOUSTON, AUSTIN, AND WACO. DURING THIS TIME, SADIK WAS ABLE TO OPEN FOR SUCH NOTABLE HIP HOP ARTISTS SUCH AS THE LUNIZ AND THE LATE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. SADIK ATTENED THE ART INSTITUTE OF HOUSTON. THERE, HE EXCELLED IN MUSIC PRODUCTION & RECORDING. HIS REPUTATION FOR QUALITY WORK GREW QUIKLY. CONSISTANTLY GROWING & EVOLVING IN AN INDUSTRY BASED ON CHANGE, SADIK COMBINED ALL OF HIS INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE & TALENT AND BEGAN TO DEVELOP HIS STYLE THAT HE APPROPRIATLY CALLS "SOUL MATHEMATICS" OR "SOULMATH" FOR SHORT. AT A TIME WHEN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY WAS STAGNANT, SADIK PONDERED THE IDEA OF GIVING UP MUSIC FOR FOREVER UNTIL A CHANCE MEETING WITH MC/PRODUCER VINCE BRYANT. VINCE ENCOURAGED HIM NOT TO GIVE UP, BUT TO KEEP MAKING THOSE HITS. IN THE LONG LINE OF CLASSIC HIP HOP MC & PRODUCER COMBOS (PETE ROCK & CL SMOOTH, GANG STARR, ERIC B & RAKIM), VINCE & SADIK BECAME H-TOWN’S HIP HOP DYNAMIC DUO. SADIK CITES HIS MAJOR PRODUCTION INFLUENCES AS PREMO, PETE ROCK, DR. DRE, THE BOMB SQUAD(P.E.), & J-DILLA(R.I.P.) IN 2005, SADIK PRODUCED "GETTIN' MONEY", THE SECOND RADIO SINGLE RELEASED OFF OF E.S.G.'S "ALL AMERICAN GANGSTER" CD. LATER THAT YEAR, SADIK PRODUCED “H-TOWN CHICK” BY DA MENACE WHICH FEATURED H-TOWN’S OWN SHEA ATKINS. IN 2008, HE PRODUCED THE REMIX FOR “BOUNCE LIKE A REBEL” BY J PAUL JR. FEATURING SCARFACE AND VINCE BRYANT, WHICH WAS A CLUB AND RADIO HIT IN THE TEXAS/LOUISIANA AREA. SADIK HAS ALSO WORKED WITH K-RINO, DEVIN, E-ROCK OF THE 5TH WARD BOYZ, KIOTTI, ERIN STEVENSON AND MANY OTHER H-TOWN HIDDEN TALENTS. SADIK IS CURRENTLY WORKING ON PRODUCTION FOR REL THE CHOSEN, PLI, & MELA THE STAR. NOW THE ONLY WORDS USED TO DESCRIBE “BEAsTBYSADIK!” ARE: EPIC, INTERGALACTIC, & THEREPUEDIC.
