http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.39363&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Frjd2%2Fplaylists.rssA producer and DJ from Columbus, Ohio, RJD2 is undoubtedly one of the most hyped beatmakers in independent hip-hop today. He got his start making tracks for the MHZ crew (Copywrite, Camu Tao, Tage Proto), then worked his way up with a series of singles and mix tapes before unleashing his critically-acclaimed debut LP, <i>Dead Ringer</i>, on the uber-hip Def Jux label in 2002. Much like DJ Shadow (an obvious influence) before him, RJD2's music appeals not only to the underground hip-hop community, but also to aging indie-rockers and hipsters who don't care for most rap music. Loaded with moody samples, dusty drum breaks, dialogue clips, and pieces of vintage soul jams, the mostly instrumental <i>Dead Ringer</i> elicited rave reviews from a wide variety of listeners, and was bound for many critic's "best of 2002" lists. - Brolin WinningThe Midwestern Basementen720Wed, 25 Nov 2009 10:31:13 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.39363&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Frjd2%2Fplaylists.rss A producer and DJ from Columbus, Ohio, RJD2 is undoubtedly one of the most hyped beatmakers in independent hip-hop today.
