HYPETRAK TV: DJ Premier

For over two decades DJ Premier has been the virtuoso behind some of hip-hop’s greatest records. Just off the Gang Starr output you have Moment of Truth, Mass Appeal, Manifest, Royalty, Discipline and you can’t forget about his work with Biggie, Nas, Big L and many other highly respected artists. The secret has been within his craft – how it’s conceptualized, the textures, the atmospheres and how the innovative samples are implemented into each song. This feature takes us inside the legendary HeadQCourterz studio in New York City where the renowned producer shared with Hypetrak some of his most cherished moments in the music game and beyond.
