The Heatmakerz is a production duo consisting of Rsonist (Gregory Green) and Thrilla (Sean Thomas) that started in Jamaica Queens, NY. They rose to fame after providing beats to various releases of the Diplomats. The bulk of albums like Diplomatic Immunity and Juelz Santana’s debut album, From Me to U, were produced by the Heatmakerz. The Heatmakerz thrived during the mid-’00s “chipmunk soul” era, and their sonic fingerprints can be found all over Dipset’s catalog. But it wasn’t long before they started taking their talents beyond the ‘Set to work with the likes of AZ, Lil Wayne, and Lil’ Flip. Their production style is based upon high-pitched soul samples. The Heatmakerz have accumulated over 25 million albums sold worldwide, working directly or influencing almost every artist in New York City.
The iconic production duo, The Heatmakerz, has decided to release an instrumental album today, January 10th, The Anti-Social Experiment, to share the classic New York sound with the world, released by FATBEATS.
The album is filled with vintage high-pitched soul samples curated by JNS, which made The Heatmakerz production distinct from other New York City producers in the past. On December 6th, the “Still Ready” instrumental was released, and several rappers, such as Crank Lucas and Connor Evans, made viral videos.
This album features a variety of production choices, from the low-pitched soul vocals in “Million Miles,” or the angelic vocals over the “Paradise” instrumental that’s reflective of the Wu-Tang “Time Is Money” instrumental, or to the emphatic opening track, “Where’s The Luv?,” filled with snares and horns.
The Heatmakerz are widely known for producing The Diplomats’ smash singles, “Dipset Anthem” and “I’m Ready.” Outside of The Diplomats, their other production credits include many legends such as Rick Ross, Ghostface Killah, Ludacris, Wayne, Jeezy, and more. People can stream the album and even order The Anti-Social Experiment on vinyl as of today.
