Details:
Da Shiek is an artist on a very specific mission, which he happily shares when asked. Says Da Shiek, “My entire career is based on highlighting the fact that the urban community is more than ‘bling-bling.’ We are a multi-genre, multi-faceted cosmopolitan group that represents all people. It should be recognized that urban artists, even from modest beginnings, can have the same polish and sophistication that privileged ivy-league alums have.” He proves this point through his own existence. Spending most of his childhood in Carson, CA, Da Shiek earned his bachelors degree in music from Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA, where he attended on a music scholarship. Further adding to his credibility, he earned a masters degree in music from Cal-State Northridge. Since then he has gone on to work with rappers and singers alike, but it was after working with Bad Boy group Dream that he saw his vision more clearly than ever.

“That was an amazing experience,” he explains. Engineering those sessions gave me great insights to a lot of things in the industry. I got to meet Kanye West, Rodney Jerkins, Jarvis Church, Dextor Simmons, Scott Storch, and I’m sure I’m forgetting some other people. But that was a true learning experience in production, engineering, and artistry as well. It gave me the confidence to know that I was on the right track.”

Da Shiek has now taken that confidence and poured it into his own work, “Urban Renaissance.” This album stays in tune with his M.O.: it is a polished piece of work featuring complex harmonies and relevant subject matter. It’s not your typical R&B, more of a successful compromise of R&B, Pop and Jazz, with the polish of his Classical upbringings. His current tour “Advancement Without Shortcuts,” seeks out and recognizes other artists who hone their craft through years of dedication. He can also be found speaking to young musicians about realizing their potential. “It’s a tougher road to pursue excellence in your craft, but it is rewarding for all of us when a young artist of any background chooses this path.” In the case of Da Shiek, he presents highly detailed and meticulously prepared music that is sure to inspire.
