Producer, youth & teen advocate, motivational speaker, blogger, songwriter, musical director and CEO of DDub Productions, D-Dub is finally dropping DDub Productions presents: The Dead 27 mixtape on March 27, 2009. “The Dead 27” mixtape is a project packed with 10 tracks, all produced by this Brooklyn beatsmith. It pays homage to late hip-hop icons Notorious BIG, Tupac, Big Pun and Big L by mixing their vocals with beats influenced by greats like Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, and Kurt Cobain- who all died at age 27. The Dead 27 showcases and displays D-Dub’s ability as a producer and embodies a broad range of musical styles including hard core rap, R&B, pop, and rock. D-Dub states, “’Dead 27 ’is influenced by four musical icons Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, and Jim Morrison. Who not only made a mark with their music but also impacted our culture with their sudden passing. The mixtape also blends these four with four other Hip Hop heavyweights of my generation and their rhymes. Consequently, bridging the gap and recreating space and time, both past and present with my beats. ’Dead 27’ is my first mixtape of a series of many to come….so expect more infectious gritty beats showcasing talent with no bounds.” No stranger to the Hip-Hop industry, D-Dub’s production credits include collaborating with Harlem rapper Esso on “So H!” for the 2007 ESSObama: The Champagne Campaign mixtape hosted by Cipha Sounds & Sickamore. D-Dub has also showcased his production skills on 2007’s EOW records release Solid Ground, which features current Fight Klub champion and EOW veteran Iron Solomon. This year D-Dub continues to expand his credits by working with Brooklyn’s own City Haze on “Reminder” which was also featured on 2DopeBoyz and Digiwaxx. He has also received critical praise for his work regularly featured on King Magazine TV, as well as his efforts for the international summer smash with UK’s finest Paul Samuels on “London Summer Nights” featured on Str8NYC, SHCollective as well various other online publications. In addition, newly appointed Hot 97’s DJ Magic has collaborated with D-Dub on various projects including a melody of D-Dub’s beats and an upcoming mixtape featuring remixes scheduled for release later this year. Aside from these production credits, D-Dub is also working on the score for the Off-Broadway musical, “Teenage Chronicles”.
