History of the Bay Podcast Ep. 25: Known for his unmistakable producer tag and signature style of beats, DJ.Fresh has been a staple of the Bay Area hip-hop scene for decades. Growing up in Baltimore, Fresh learned the foundations of DJing before moving to the Bay. While he was still a teenager, he entered and won several DJ competitions for the ITF and DMC. This led to Fresh becoming a tour DJ for Common and then Nas. As he started to get into producing, he launched his acclaimed "Tonite Show" album series by teaming up with Mistah Fab. Since then, Fresh has produced for Don Toliver, Tech N9ne, Wiz Khalifa, Curren$y, Larry June, E-40, Murs, Trae the Truth, Freddie Gibbs, the Jacka, Mozzy, J. Stalin and countless others. Recently, he went viral for his "Refreshed" remix series where he put a new twist on classics by artists like LL Cool J and RBL Posse. Fresh is currently working on his major label debut via BMG, The Tonite Show" compilation.
