VERSATILITY At It's Finest! (pitchblackmusic.net)

About Me

Ask for quality and you shall receive. Thats the mantra of Hakim Young and A. Jermaine Mobley, the Atlanta-bred masterminds behind Pitch Black Music."We go way beyond just doing the beats," says Jermaine, a formally trained guitarist who has played on 2Pac, 50 Cent and Carl Thomas records. "We produce, write, co-write, and we arrange vocals. Its production in the true sense of the word."This full-service approach has attracted a range of supreme clientele.When Jagged Edge needed a smash single on par with Where the Party At to propel their self-titled fifth album, Pitch Black served up Stunnaz(s), an infectious, bottom-heavy ode to stunna shades featuring Jermaine Dupri.When Lloyd Banks was fiendin for a sound that would satisfy both the ladies and the streets, Pitch Black Music supplied the track for Addictive, which will appear on the G-Unit soldiers upcoming album, Rotten Apple.And when Musiq wanted to send a message to a bitter chick with emotional baggage, Pitch Black came through Previous Cats, a muscular ballad that took Juslisen to another level."I call our sound ghetto pop," says Hakim, a self-taught keyboardist who has done vocal production work for Anthony Hamilton, Amerie and Cherish. "Our songs are catchy and melodic, but theyre really aggressive underneath. We always have hard drums, and our arrangements are rhythmically-driven."In 2003, the duo signed a production deal with Columbia Records and brought their urban pop artist, St. Juste, to the corporation. Her genre-bending debut, The Confession Booth, garnered plenty of insider praise but was ultimately shelved due to massive restructuring at the label.Despite this setback, Pitch Black Music remains committed to cranking out the harmony-rich-but-raw, quality material theyll soon become famous for.You can tell from Pitch Blacks vocal arrangements and orchestration that the musicianship is definitely up to par. Jermaine and Hakim arent just beatmakers, theyre producers.WANNA SUBMIT YOUR DEMO? CALL US AT 201-430-2065
