Detroit producer Apollo Brown has made a name for himself as one of hip-hop's most legendary new producers while maintaining a golden era sound. His production credits are a who's who of Hip-hop greats from Danny Brown to Ghostface Killah, Ras Kass to Westside Gunn. Even Chance the Rapper used a pair of Apollo beats on his debut mixtapes. Known for bringing the best out of musicians, Apollo has a knack for making timeless classics.
Brooklyn's Joell Ortiz started on none other than Dr. Dre's Aftermath label and built a huge buzz in the industry. He's worked with legends like Just Blaze among others. He then signed to Shady Records as one-quarter of the supergroup Slaughterhouse. He's worked with hip-hop titans Eminem, Busta Rhymes, Jadakiss, Akon, and Big Daddy Kane.
Now the pair of hip-hop luminaries have their first collaborative album on Mello Music Group. It's nothing short of a masterpiece: Mona Lisa.
