Leigh Elliott, better known by his alias, Lee Major, is a multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated music producer[2] from Petersburg, Virginia[3].
Lee Major has received production credit on tracks for Maybach Music Presents, Self Made Vol. 1, Jay-Z[4], Rick Ross[5], Jadakiss[6], Ace Hood[7], Young Jeezy[8], DJ Khaled[9], and many others[10].
Growing up in a family of musicians (his mother playing piano, father playing the drums, and eldest brother playing bass guitar), Lee was born with the tools to become one of America's best young producers. Lee has earned 30+ producer credits in music while working with some of Hip-Hop's leading acts.
Lee began as the co-owner and music-producing partner of the So Inkredible, LLC., production company, professionally known as The Inkredibles. The production duo were discovered in 2007 on MySpace by SpiffTV and introduced to DJ Nasty and DJ Khaled; shortly thereafter, The Inkredibles[11] were signed to We The Best Management.
By the end of 2009, Lee Major ended his affiliation with his business partner, with whom he made up The Inkredibles. In an effort to broaden his portfolio and apply his ability to other genres of music, Lee Major established So Major Music in 2011.
