Erica “EQ” Henson has been producing for 3 years and can already bring it as hard on the tracks as her male counterparts. A writer at heart, EQ has learned to transform her ability to write into musical compositions. As the FIRST LADY of Desiac Music, EQ acts as a ghostwriter, producer and lyricist and will be collaborating with Executive Producer Desiac to release their debut project entitled “Henson”. The double disc CD will be comprised of EQ’s project “HERS” and Desiac’s project “HIS” and will feature artists that they have collaborated with and original music they have composed. “Henson” is set for release in the FALL of 2008.
As the first ever selected female and runner up of the 2008 Houston round of the Red Bull Big Tune Beat Battle, EQ has set an example for emerging female producers. In addition to competing in and placing in several beat battles, EQ has collaborated with several artists across the country including some of Houston’s hottest artists such as the premier female rapper lineup the “In Crowd” whose members consist of Ms. Re’ Da Boss Baby, 2008 S.E.A Award winner Mz. Trinity, 3PG’s own Fiya aka DJ Fat Alberta and CEO of Top Notch Entertainment, Moca. EQ will also have featured tracks on H.O.T. TV’s upcoming all female compilation project “The Women of HTown” which features well known female artists from Houston including Surreall “The First Lady of Swisha House Records”, Troublesum the Teflon Diva and BBH Entertainment’s Raw’ LT. EQ has also collaborated with several other artist/producer acts such as Church and Montana of A.T.W. Records and the electronica group “Pavmire” who recently topped Euro Billboard charts with their hit cover of Sade’s “Smooth Operator”.
Aside from her work as a producer EQ is the creator and moderator of The Femme Fatales Producers site, where she helps to promote and support her fellow female producers that are trying to scratch the surface in the music industry.
As she prepares for the Big Tune finals in hosted in New York City in December of 2008, EQ aims to land a nomination as the 2008 Southern Entertainment Award “Indy Producer of the Year” or “Best Beat of the Year" for her track “Ladies Iz Pimps 2”.
With a debut album, major beat battle and host of collaborations in the works, EQ is a female force to be reckoned with and intends to make her presence known in the Houston music scene and beyond!
