Melody Beats Entertainment was created by
CEO-President Undrea "Big Dre" Woods in 1995.
Mr. Woods had a vision to develop his own
independent production label. Dre has been playing
music in his family's church, Miracle Temple Church
of God In Christ in Minneapolis, MN as an organist
since the age of 4.

Since beginning his start with gospel music, Undrea
has perfected his skills on the guitar, electric bass
guitar, saxophone, keyboard, drums/percussion, as
well as many other aspects of music. Because this
producer has been playing in church every Sunday
for the last 25 years, without a doubt he has an
expertise and passion that no one has been able to
touch. Dre Woods has a hot set of hands.

                                          Melody Beats Entertainment and its affiliates are
                                          completing a compilation of artists and music produced by
                                          Dre Woods. The compilation album is composed of R&B,
                                          Soul and Hip-Hop selections. Currently, there are 20
                                          tracks completed. The theme of the album is "We gon'
                                          take ya' 2 da WOODS", and the album features Midwest's
                                          First Fam. The family is composed of the following R&B
                                          Soul and Hip-Hop artists: Monica Marquette, Tony & Bell,
                                          Anonimus, Coop DeVille and Brian D.

                                          Melody Beats Entertainment's compilation album is the
                                          most highly anticipated album coming out of the Midwest,
                                          and has something brewing for the future that cannot be
                                          understood by the common man or woman. No longer will
                                          the beat go beat-less, nor will an artist working with Dre
                                          be told to 'go back to the lab.' Producers in Minneapolis have attempted to make a change, but can not come close to what Dre has done or will do.

The mainstream audience of Minneapolis-St. Paul and the surrounding suburbs is looking for someone and something that simulates what our parents felt when Prince began his reign. A sense of pride has been missing from professionally composed music, with a mainstream sound, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Dre Woods is a rare commodity who can produce a deliverable product.

Undrea Woods, better known as "Big 'Dre" or the
honored title of "Black Schroeder", was born in
Winona, Mississippi on October 13, 1974 to
parents Mary & James Woods. Undrea Woods is
the third of nine children born to
Mr. & Mrs. Woods. Since the age of 4, Undrea
Woods has played the Hammond B3 organ
among many other instruments. While attending
St. Louis Park Senior High, in St. Louis Park,
Minnesota, Undrea pursed athletic aspirations,
his knowledge of the saxophone,
drums/percussion and keyboard synthesizer.

Throughout his high school years Undrea gained
experience working with polished lyricists.
His undiscovered talent for working with R&B
artists went untouched.

Undrea Woods' influences come from a Church of
God in Christ background and his father,
Pastor James Woods, who felt that gospel music
was an important aspect. At Miracle Temple was
where Undrea gained his love and appreciation for performing music.

In 1997, after the purchase of a Korg X3 music workstation, the polishing and building of a library database of beats of melodically composed tunes has grown exponentially. After much time and consideration, Mr. Woods' 2001 debut, as not only a composer, but also as a producer of R&B, Hip-Hop and Soul, is overdue. In 2002, 'Dre added a Korg Pro X Triton 88 weighted key synthesizer and has something brewing that cannot be understood by the common man or woman. No longer will the beat go beat-less, nor will an artist working with 'Dre be told to go back to the lab.

As a Minneapolis artist and the CEO & President of Melody Beats Entertainment announces to the professional music business, "the cold weather here is a snow-cover for mainstream platinum records." As the professional clientele growth & attitude continue, Mr. Woods is a clean, fresh reminder of what Minneapolis, Minnesota brings to the table.

VP Asiel "Erek" Woods is brother to CEO Dre Woods, and has been in the background working hard to connect with the Hip-Hop and R&B listeners.
Asiel will be managing the artists' schedules and appearances.
