Rémy Martin presents ‘Rémy Producers’ sixth season with Jermaine Dupri as the face of the program. ‘Rémy Producers’is designed to discover and celebrate upcoming and aspiring music producers. They would compete for the chance to win a co-sign with Grammy Award-winning producer, Jermaine Dupri, of SO SO Def Records to create the next hottest hit in music. The ‘Rémy Producers’ contest officially began last Thursday with Dupri officially announcing the call-for-submissions. He is encouraging aspiring beat makers of all experience levels to submit their tracks to the official program website: RemyProducers.com.

For the past five years, ‘Rémy Producers’ has created a platform where producers can now have a chance of being heard and recognized by the best in the game. The other super producers that will be participating this year will be Zaytoven, Boi-1Da and TRAKGIRL. There will be four regional competitions, the last ones standing will face off at the finale in Atlanta. 

To kick-off season six of the ‘Rémy Martin Producers’ Series, there were an exceptional roster of music industry leaders, producers and creatives including Zaytoven, Boi-1Da, TRAKGIRL, hosted by Miss Info and DJ Envy. They provided the next generation of producers, execs and moguls with tips and tricks to make it in the industry during a series of panels! The Music Producers Summit took place in NYC at Live Nation headquarters last week Wednesday. The panels were highly informative and shed light on the inner workings of the music business.

Although Joyner Lucas‘ album 508-507-2209 dropped back in June, it’s still ahead of it’s league as far as lyricism goes.

The Massachusetts native not only delivers heavy bars on his major label debut but he also does some brilliant storytelling as well. Even though his style is reminiscent to that of rap legend Eminem, Lucas has a unique flow that many listeners have probably never heard before.

The 16-track project is executive produced by Boi-1da and features guest appearances from Mystikal, Snoh Aalegra and Stefflon Don.

The album does have some extremely personal tracks like “Forever” and “I’m Sorry” but Lucas made sure to include more up-tempo cuts like “FYM” (featuring Mystikal).

OVO Sound Radio has returned last night with it’s newest installment; an episode hosted by Boi-1da and Vinylz. It is no secret that Drake has frequently recruited these two to for help on the producing-end of things, so, inevitably Episode 31 was destined to be a great one.

The episode’s introduction is conducted by none other than Oliver El-Khatib himself who premiered a new Popcaan song. It has been revealed that the track was also used for the OVO Air Jordan Retro and Apparel Collection commercial (released just last week).

King Push stopped by Beat 1 Radio to chop it up with Zane Lowe about many different subjects ranging from Pusha’s upcoming film Darkest Before Dawn, his project slated to drop April of 2016 entitled King Push, and his duties as the G.O.O.D. Music hefe. They also discuss his new album Darkest Before Dawn (The Prelude), as well as his new track “M.F.T.R.” featuring The Dream.

The acronym stands for “More Famous Than Rich”, which is exactly how Pusha T feels about most of these people in the game who stunt on social media without having the credentials to back it up. Boi-1da laces Push and The Dream with an instrumental that fits the duo perfectly. To put it simply, it’s a banger.

He even previewed the lyrics on Genius a few days prior to dropping the audio, the same move he made with the first track off the album called “Untouchable”. Needless to say, he is sparing no expense and leaving no stone unturned to make sure that his projects are at a high-level quality for his fans. Listen to the world premiere and full interview below.

Update: Pusha just dropped the CDQ via Youtube. Let the flames burst through your speakers.
