Most people know the Top Dawg Entertainment label for Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock, ScHoolboy Q, and Ab-Soul, but other members of the camp are making moves.
While the TDE Crew recently split with Dave Free, one of the founders, mix engineer Derek 'MixedByAli' Ali continues to expand.
Ali hit Instagram this week to announce that he has purchased the original Death Row Studios.
The studio is most known for being the place 2Pac recorded, and where Dr. Dre recorded The Chronic and Snoop Dogg recorded Doggystyle.
This is the most exciting news I’ve announced since the birth of my daughter.
This is Death Row Records former studio, where they recorded and mixed @drdre ‘The Chronic 2001’, @snoopdogg ‘The Dog Pound’, Tupac’s ‘All Eyes On Me’ and countless other records that shaped my childhood and inspired me to create the music I make today, being from the west coast.
I’m proud to announce, this is now my facility.
Starting renovations next week and In the coming months I will be transforming this iconic hip-hop monument into Two of the BEST sounding @solidstatelogic / @augspurgermonitors mixing rooms in Los Angeles . We’re looking forward to harnessing the energy & history from this studio and continue pumping out nothing but timeless hit records just as they did in the 90’s.
All of this couldn’t be possible without my best-friend and business partner @noblegent .
NoName Studios / EngineEars Office Coming Q2, 2021.
