Shortly after high school, Hall co-founded the band Numb, which was active between 1986 and 1991.

(1992), producing key tracks including "You Remind Me," "Reminisce," "Love No Limit," and "My Love." That same year, he contributed production to Stephanie Mills’s song "I Just Want Love," Father MC’s "All I Want," and Shinehead’s "Try My Love" from the album Sidewalk University.
