Women in Hip Hop Podcast

Former music executive for both Def Jam and Arista Records, Drew Dixon sat down with Jazzie Belle to discuss and celebrate her accomplishments in Hip Hop & R&B. Most people are familiar with her from the HBO Max Documentary 'On The Record' where she accuses Russell Simmons of rape. But Hip Hop Journalist, Jazzie Belle wanted to use this opportunity to shed light on her accolades and contributions to the culture. Hits like Method Man's "You're All I Need" featuring Mary J Blige, Aretha Franklin's "A rose is still a rose," to Whitney Houston's "Your love is my love" all were touched by the brilliant mind of Drew Dixon. In part 1 of this interview we talk about her discovering her love for Hip Hop, moving from DC to Brooklyn and befriending the likes of Biggie Smalls (She shares a few amazing B.I.G stories), to dating singer D'Angelo, to landing her dream job as A&R at Def Jam Records, to being the mastermind behind turning an interlude to a full length record that turned out to be a Grammy Award Winning single plus a lot MORE!
