DJ Ski Beatz, the Mastermind behind "Reasonable Doubt" Speaks


Hip-Hop Classics like "This Is It" (Luchini), "Politics As Usual" and "Dead Presidents" don't come out of thin air. And if you recall the last two songs are on Jay's debut album, Reasonable Doubt, a must have in your music collection. Much credit is due to Jigga Man himself but, CREDIT must be given to the mastermind behind the production. And, that is (DJ) Ski Beatz. In an interview, he speaks on how the music industry almost jaded his vision in the 90's and how he's back at it with two new titles: rapper and producer. I enjoyed this interview....Good Stuff.

Watch below:

“I got jaded through the industry and I started changing my music up, I got lost for a minute,” he calls. “Like, ‘Oh shit, what the fuck am i doing? Who am I? Where’s my music going? I’m not on top. Am I supposed to be on top?’ …Then I just broke down and stopped.” - DJ Ski Beatz

Soul Food: Marvin Gaye - "I Want You"

...it's good for the soul. Press Play.

Jeremih: Look At Me Now (Remix) Video

It seems as if a lot of artists, especially singers, want to jump on Chris Brown's hit "Look At Now". Da Brat & Trey Songz have both put their spin on the track and have gotten favorable reviews. R&B singer Jeremih released his version of the song a while ago but, recently put out a video for his remix. Check it out below:

A Man of His Word: Lloyd Tattoos Pencil on Leg

Like many of the stars today, Lloyd is no stranger to ink. In a recent visit to Hot 97.5, he got a tattoo at the station to match VJ/Air personality Lady G. Lloyd's is of a pencil and Lady G has a pencil sharpener.
To each his own. I'll take school supplies over an ice-cream (Gucci) any day.

Big Sean - "I Do It"

Tag lines? Any rapper that's anybody has one. From Rick Ross dating all the way back to Biggie, tag lines are a certified stamp of identity and Big Sean is no different. Anyone that's been on Sean before "My Last" dropped, you already know he has a few of his own, and his 2nd single from his debut album, Finally Famous, proves that!

Kelly Reveals NEW Album Title...

I know for sure I am not the only one relieved that Ms. Kelly has a CERTIFIED hit with "Motivation". It's about time she gets the recognition she deserves, IMO! In an interview with Billboard this week, she announced the name and origin of her album title, Here I Am.

"I was talking to my product manager," recalls Rowland, who's currently working in Los Angeles. "I said I wanted people to know that this is the record, the sound I¹ve been working toward... that here I am. And she said,that's the title. It just connected with my heart and the music as well. It stands for everything I've gone through and thought about for this record as a woman. It's very strong."

Her first single, "Motivation", is currently #3 on the Billboard countdown. Get 'em Kelly!
