The Grammy-winning Toronto producer has helmed some of Drake’s biggest and most out-of-the-box hits, from the disco-pop haze of “Hold On, We’re Going Home” to the multicultural flex of “One Dance.” He’s also one half of Ovo Sound R&b duo Dvsn, responsible for the soul-wrenching beats behind their many jams. He’s got production credits on Mariah Carey, Future and Travis Scott tracks too.

He says he’ll soon start releasing songs under his own moniker, a la DJ Khaled or Murda Beatz, made with several artists “all over the board.” Consider it a personal branding exercise.
