The Dallas Producer Union was one of the most GROUND BREAKING events in the history of the city. It united the hottest producers and artist in Dallas as well as fans of music. The moderator was rising star producer/artist J.Rhodes. Rhodes is an Ascap Istandard producer showcase winner whos video Hello debuted on MTV's rap fix with Sway, David Banner and 9th Wonder who all gave it rave reviews. Panelist were Cheese Beats (Grammy Nominated producer who has produced for the likes of Cherish, Young-Joc, Jagged edge and Faith based rapper Lecrae to name a few). Picnic (Talented Producer/Artist who has crafted hits for Devin the Dude, Johnny Polygon and Kid Kudi just to name a few) and S1 (producer of Kanye West lead single "Power". He has also produced for the likes of Rhymefest and Talib Kweli. He is currently in the studio with Jay-Z and Beyonce)
The panel was dedicated to Business and Branding. The hour plus Q&A session was very informative and everyone in the room gained great insight and knowledge from professionals who have been there and done that.
After the Q&A session the packed house was entertained from a producer showcase that featured S1, Picnic, J.Rhodes, Cheese Beats and Lonestarr.
The second portion of the Union inspired the masses as the packed house Rocked out to EPIC beats from people in the field that they look up to.
It was a great night. The cherry on top was Dallas Ambassador Erykah Badu being in attendance and asking the most questions to panelist! It was indeed a great night! A win for Hip-Hop music, and a win for the Dallas Fort-Worth area.
A pretty dope collabo... Little story behind this joint the beat was on my first beat project "The Purge" months before I dropped "The Purge" I gave Killah Trakz the beat I didn't think he was gonna ever do anything with it so I put the beat on The Purge. Last week I get a tweet from Killah Trakz like I'm recording to Scrunchface. Oh word... When I heard the finished joint I thought this is the reason I gave the beat to him in the first place. Enjoy. -HPKillah Trakz- Scrunchface Music by HPthaHybrid
