This June, multi-platinum rapper/producer Damizza will make a grand entrance back into the game with a new compilation presented by DJ Ill Will entitled “The West Coast President: Government In Exile.” The swagger-filled project will be stuffed to excess with feel-good, star-studded records, exhibiting a collection of Damizza’s biggest hits with the likes of Westside Connection, Kurupt, & Fat Joe, as well as never-before-heard music & mixes featuring Mariah Carey, Nate Dogg, & Fabolous.
Brand new collaborations with current prot�g�s Guilty & “Jedi” Jared Moore will be sprinkled in to give the fans a taste of what they can expect from Damizza’s Baby Ree Records in the future. “I wanted to give the people a nice compilation for the summertime that they can vibe to,” says Damizza. “I’m really excited to team up with Ill Will, because he has a great sense of how to push records out here on the West Coast.”
Best known for his work with younger artists like Hot Dollar, Ray J, & Jay Rock, DJ Ill Will shares Mizza’s enthusiasm about this mixtape. �The foundation of the mixtape game, in my eyes, is usually based on promoting the younger artists and creating an outlet for them. What�s appealing about this project to me is that we�re reaching back into the vault & reminding people about the legendary accomplishments that Damizza has made, but we�re incorporating brand new music as well to keep it fresh for longtime fans.�
“If you’re not familiar with Damizza’s work as an artist or his involvement in the music industry, this project will serve as a great introduction,” states executive producer Eddie Gurrola. “Damizza has been a part of most of the major projects in hip-hop since he’s been in this business, but he’s kept a low profile because he’s just so humble about it all.”
“The West Coast President: Government In Exile” will be released for free download online this June.
