In addition to putting out wide release albums, the label is known for D-Block mixtapes, which introduce the world to the latest music from their up and coming and most established artists. These tapes make it easy for hip hop fans to stay on the cutting edge of the music.
The official record producer for D-Block Records is Vinny Idol, and he has produced albums for most of the artists in the D-Block family. That family includes the group The LOX, which features Jadakiss, Sheek Louch and Styles P. It also includes the underground group 354 Entertainment and The Arliss Network.
One of the most popular series of mixtapes from D-Block Records is the D-Block Bad Guys series from DJ Envy. This series includes more than ten installments, all of which feature over twenty tracks and appearances by some of the most talented acts in hip hop. On these mixtapes, fans can find tracks featuring artists such as Ginuwine, Akon, Fabolous and Carl Thomas.
There are over seventy mixtapes available under the D-Block label made by a variety of talented DJs. DJ Green Lantern is just one example of these amazingly talented DJs and is responsible for a number of mixtapes that have introduced fans to fantastic music. The Green Ghost Project was one of the most highly anticipated tapes on the label and featured appearances from M.O.P., Tre Williams and Raekwon.
A smart record label can make any artist a fan favorite without a wide release album and D-Block Mixtapes are a perfect example of that. Their impressive roster of artists have collaborated on a huge number of mixtapes that have let fans get the first glimpse at some of the best new music hip hop has to offer. Listening to these tapes is the best way to get a look at the amazing hip hop that you will not hear on the radio.
