DJ Mustard, one of the most sought-after producers in music right now, will play two shows in New Zealand in March 2016!
Born Dijon McFarlane and hailing from Los Angeles, DJ Mustard is a formidable figure in the US hip-hop scene with 11 top 10 hits, four platinum singles and four gold singles to his name.
Mustard’s success lies in his signature style labeled ‘ratchet music’ – a fast and furious fusion of catchy club-oriented hip-hop. It’s a sound stamped in many of his hit collaborations with some of the biggest names in the game, from Tyga, 2 Chainz, Young Jeezy, Kid Ink and Y.G.
In 2014, he took over the airwaves with no less than seven songs hitting the Billboard Hot 100 chart at the same time. Meanwhile, in the same year, his debut album 10 SUMMERS was met with critical acclaim, Rolling Stone Magazine describing it as “hard-hitting, old-school West Coast hip-hop”.
The self-produced album cemented Mustard’s place as hip-hop’s ‘go-to man’. Featuring guest appearances from a host of heavyweights, including Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean, Yo Gotti, Nipsey Hussle, Ty Dolla $ign and Tinashe, 10 SUMMERS was the most downloaded album during the summer of 2014 on Google Play.
