About this artist
A New York emcee and producer, Big Jaz dropped some nice singles in the early '90s, but mainstream success eluded him. He eventually focused on beatmaking and has crafted tracks for the likes of Rakim, Ras Kass and many others. He's also worked extensively with Jay-Z, cooking up tunes on several albums. Little-known fact: the pre-platinum Jay Hova appears in a few of Big Jaz's old videos.
