At age 32, L.A.-based Chahayed has become rap and R&B’s go-to for clever hooks, unique intros and outros and irresistible synth lines, more often than not crafted with NI’s KONTAKT.
The irresistible elfin waltz of D.R.A.M.’s “Broccoli.” The twisted organ chords that kick off Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode.” The anthemic pads and horns of Drake’s “Laugh Now Cry Later.” The sultry, jazzy synths of Jessie Reyez’s “Far Away.” What do all these tracks have in common? They’ve all been touched, quite literally, by the hands of producer Rogét Chahayed.
