DJ Premier Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018

“Rolling Stone” identified Premier as arguably hip hop’s best producer ever. “The Source” set DJ Premier on its listing of the 20 finest producers in the magazine’s twenty-year history, while the editors of About.com rated him #1 on their Top 50 Hip Hop Producers list. He also made the finals in “Vibe” magazine’s hunt for the finest hiphop producer ever.

DJ Premier’s style of creation epitomizes the Ny sound of his earlier peers. He’s famous for trying jazz, funk, and soul artists, in addition to trying an artist’s previous work when making a fresh track for the exact same artist. As an example, on Jay Z’s “So Ghetto”, from the 1999 record Vol. 3… Life and Times of S. Carter, Premier samples an older Jay Z tune, 1997’s “Who You Wit II”. Moreover, his encyclopedic memory of hip-hop lyrics enables him to distinctively talk along with his hands by scratch in lyrics from a number of different tunes to build new phrases. Premier’s beats are well-known for his oft-copied mixtures of brief vocal samples, frequently from multiple artists, to produce a refrain. Prime Minister has also experimented with atonal samples which are not confined to soul, jazz, and funk. As an example, he tried and chopped up seminal elector-acoustic music in the 1960s to the track “Physical Stamina” by Jeru the Damaja. In a interview with XXL Magazine, DJ Premier was asked how his sound evolved, to which he responded, “Marley Marl is my number one inspiration. Grandmaster D, and Whodini. Jazzy Jay—even Cut Originator. Seeing them do what they do. It is black music, it is black culture, it comes in the ghetto. Just how can you not connect to ghetto folks when that is the rawest kind of blackness? Despite the fact that it is not a superb location with regard to the market and the way poor folks have it in the area, the naturalism’s there, and that is what we were born out of. Therefore I greatly pay esteem by doing exactly the same kind of music in return.”
