Brooklyn rapper and Atlantic records signee Dyme-A-Duzin invites fans and hip-hop enthusiasts out for a night of music and fun courtesy of LRG, PUMA and Malibu Red to celebrate the release of his “Father’s Day” music video directed by Court Dunn. Taking place on June 19 from 7-9pm EST.
Legendary producer Ski Beatz is responsible for some of the most influential and instantly recognizable hip-hop beats of all time. As part of our ongoing Off the Record series, we caught up with the storied beatsmith to discuss a variety of topics – ranging from his early days as an emcee with Original Flavor – to the fateful introduction to Jay-Z which was a moment that would inevitably shift the North Carolina native from double duty to strictly a producer of classics.
