About this artist
Powers Pleasant is a hip-hop producer, DJ, and drummer from Brooklyn.
Co-founder of the collective Pro Era with Joey Bada$$, CJ Fly, and the late Capital Steez, he took part in Joey’s rise, touring as his DJ and co-producing his Billboard-charting 2016 single “Devastated” as well as songs on his Top Five album All-Amerikkkan Bada$$. Meanwhile, Pleasant uploaded his own soul sample-based productions, with tracks like 2014′s “Stop Lyin to Me” and 2015′s “Fo$ter My Love” finding a following, as well as his production work for artists including the Underachievers and Ak the savior. In 2018, Pleasant made his official debut via Commission Music with the self-produced “Pull Up” featuring Joey Bada$$ and A$AP Ferg. That track, along with seven others, appeared on his official full-length debut, Life Is Beautiful, which arrived the following year. ~ Marcy Donelson
