Memphis’s very own Nygel “Champion Beatz” Yancey brings a musical experience that fuses a deep lineage of jazz culture with the new age hip hop and RnB sounds. Merging electronic sounds with live instrumentation is the foundation of the unique story told by Champion Beatz through his piano, drumming, and vocal talents. Champion Beatz has performed with many renowned artists such as Donald Brown, Ulysses Grant and more.
Since the age of 12, Champion has been professionally performing with the Sanctuary Jazz Orchestra founded by his father, Johnny Yancey. Since then, Champion has graduated with a bachelor’s degree in music business with a concentration in audio engineering. He is also a full-time producer and engineer, recording some of Memphis’ well-known and upcoming artists.
