In the past year, Ski Beatz has moved from being producer of 90’s classics such as Jay-Z’s “Dead Presidents” (as well as others from “Reasonable Doubt”) and Camp Lo’s “Luchini” to the forefront of game putting out fresh sounds with new school rappers like Curren$y, Stalley the Cool Kids and many more, and was easily my favourite producer of the year. Teaming up with Dame Dash and becoming affiliated with Creative Control, DD172 and BluRoc records was the perfect move and saw Ski Beatz bring a refreshing variation of boom-bap to the masses. I got the chance to talk to Ski about the changes he has made to his music over the past year, his work ethic, the creative space known as DD172, his upcoming projects as well as addressing the issue, that many of you have been asking about, as to why Mos Def wasn’t included on “24 Hour Karate School.”
