Swizz Beatz has long been an advocate of the arts in its many forms, and has even been known to cast a spotlight on emerging talent that he feels needs a public platform in which to stand on. The celebrated producer/artist recently hit up Instagram to lend his voice to The Dean Collection and its “The Dean Collection St(Art)ups” initiative.
