About Oh No

Oh No grew up with music all around him, but he remained more concerned with video games until his pre-teen years, only focusing on music once he started experimenting with his brother's equipment. As he watched his brother make a name for himself he continued to hone his skills as a rapper and beat maker, performing with his group Kali Wild and eventually being featured on the Lootpack album Soundpieces: Da Antidote, and being signed to Los Angeles-based Stones Throw Records. Oh No released his debut album, The Disrupt, on Stones Throw Records in 2004. Generally accepted by critics, the album featured the fan favorite song "Move," which was produced by J Dilla and subsequently remixed for "Move Part 2." Around this time he also performed on numerous singles by other artists, and began doing freelance production work for labelmates Wildchild, MED and others. He has gone on to produce for Juggaknots, De La Soul, Murs and various other artists. In August 2006, Oh No released the album Exodus Into Unheard Rhythms, sampling the music of Galt MacDermot throughout and featuring appearances from numerous other rap artists, mostly in the Stones Throw family. The album was well received by critics and established Oh No as one of the leading underground producers in hip-hop. In 2007 he released Dr. No's Oxperiments to rave reviews. The album was entirely constructed using Turkish, Lebanese, Greek and Italian samples. Oh No remains an avid gamer, even constructing an entire beat out of video game samples for the track "The Ride" off of The Disrupt. He is an outspoken fan of "raw" hip hop. He has hinted that his somewhat pessimistic moniker comes from both his personal frustrations and his own mischievous behavior.
