Just Blaze Booking Agency Profile
Just Blaze has worked with artists like Jay-Z, Cam'ron and Fantastic to create some of the biggest hip-hop hits. The man, born Justin Smith, is from New Jersey and left Rutgers University to pursue his musical goals. Nevertheless, what he lost in formal education, he more than made up for in practical experience. Smith built his fame by providing a distinct viewpoint to hip-hop production at a time when the genre needed it the most. He started out as a young DJ before learning how to program computers and became obsessed with video game music.
Jay-Z's "Girls, Girls, Girls," Beanie Sigel and Freeway's "Rock the Mic" and Cam'ron's "Oh Boy" were all produced by Just Blaze in close collaboration with Roc-a-Fella Records. For the numerous albums issued by Roc-a-Fella during this time, he collaborated closely with Kanye West, the label's other in-house producer. Like West, he also became known for his ability to craft inventive hooks employing vintage soul sounds. Together with the rappers in the Roc-a-Fella stable, Just Blaze has worked with well-known East Coast rappers including Busta Rhymes, Jadakiss, DMX and Fabolous to produce music. Along with Timbaland, the Neptunes and Swizz Beatz, he had established himself as one of the top producers in the rap sector by the turn of the century..

The final Just Blaze booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Just Blaze charge for an event. An example fee to book Just Blaze is in the starting range of $40,000-$74,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Just Blaze agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Just Blaze manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
There is low probability to book Just Blaze for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Just Blaze agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Just Blaze, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Just Blaze booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Just Blaze, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
