Ras Beats

Ras Beats is a Detroit-bred producer and multi-instrumentalist known for his gritty, genre-blurring soundscapes that bridge hip-hop, soul, and experimental beats. A key collaborator in Michigan’s underground scene, he’s worked with artists like Denmark Vessey and Quelle Chris, crafting raw, sample-driven productions that feel both nostalgic and forward-thinking. His work often pairs lo-fi textures with precise drum patterns, earning him recognition through projects like *Crudo* (and its instrumental counterpart) and the soul-jazz fusion of *Michigan & The Mecca*.

As part of the Mello Music Group roster, Ras Beats maintains a DIY ethos while dropping consistent heat—from the hypnotic *Disorderly Conduct* to the introspective *Pages*. Whether serving moody instrumentals or crafting backdrops for lyrical heavyweights, his beats feel like weathered cassette tapes unearthed from hip-hop’s golden era basement, repurposed for tomorrow’s rebels. Recent drops like *Neanderthal* and *Church* prove he’s still sharpening his signature blend of grime and groove.
