Kevin Rudolf music biography continued...

His mother was a nightclub singer who introduced Rudolf to music at a young age. He first started playing guitar at age 12, and learned production and engineering when he bought a computer and keyboard as a teenager. After meeting superstar producer Timbaland, Rudolf was introduced to many stars in the business and wound up producing such acts as the Black Eyed Peas, Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado, and David Banner. In late September of 2008, Rudolf launched his solo career on the Cash Money label with the rock-rap blend "Let It Rock," featuring special guest Lil Wayne. "Let It Rock" reached #5 on the Billboard US Hot 100 chart, #5 on the UK Singles Chart, #3 on the Australian ARIA Chart and #2 on the Canadian Hot 100. His debut album, In the City, was released on November 24, 2008, where it debuted and peaked at #94 on the Billboard 200. "Let It Rock," meanwhile, was used for the WWE Royal Rumble official theme song, and for the 2009 NBA All-Star Game. "I have been very blessed and feel really lucky," Rudolf says. "There is no info or pictures of me anywhere, yet the track has taken a life of its own. The music is truly speaking for itself." Fans know Rudolf's talent will continue to do the same thing.
