#EverybodyButKRS
Hip hop historian, music technologist and founder of the original socially conscious band “Stetsasonic”, Daddy-O is a living hip-hop legend and one of the most influential voices in trending digital media. Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, Daddy-O has conquered the music industry not only as an artist, but as a mogul that helped launch industry heavyweights like Mary J. Blige, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Keith Richards, Sonic Youth, and They Might Be Giants. Daddy-O was raised on cassette tapes, listening to acts like Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Busy Bee, and The Cold Crush Four Mcs, and in 1982 he formed Stetsasonic. Building on his success with Stetsasonic, Daddy-O developed into a highly sought-after writer and producer during the 80s and 90s. This is where he began to lay the foundation for his successful career as a music executive and music technologist. Daddy-O has worked for Universal, Def Jam, and Motown Records. He has also discovered talent like Smooth Da’ Hustla, Master P. and Mystikal. Daddy-O has produced music for The B-52s, Mary J. Blige, and Queen Latifah, just to name a few. Needless to say, Daddy-O knows music. When he plays it for others, he knows what to play to set the mood, tempo and vibe. He has deejayed in posh venues from NYC’s Highline Ballroom to Atlanta’s Biltmore. Even at class acts like the Michael C. Carlos Museum, Daddy-O never misses a beat!
