Mustard

Dijon Isaiah McFarlane (born June 5, 1990), known professionally as Mustard (also known as DJ Mustard), is an American record producer. He is a frequent collaborator with California-based hip hop artists YG and Ty Dolla Sign; he's produced various hit records for hip hop and R&B artists since his entrance into mainstream music with Tyga's 2011 single "Rack City". Mustard's production style has been described as an up-tempo, club-oriented, catchy yet rudimentary melodic hip hop style. This style has developed into the contemporary production style of West Coast hip hop during the early 2010s, which he calls "ratchet music". Almost all of his productions begin or end with the tag "Mustard on the beat, ho!", a voice sample of YG, who says it at the end of "I'm Good", one of their early collaborations, as well as claps and repetition of the word "hey".Mustard has released three albums: 10 Summers in August 2014, Cold Summer in September 2016, and Perfect Ten in June 2019; this album contained his signature song as a lead artist, "Ballin'" (featuring Roddy Ricch). He founded of the record label 10 Summers Records in 2014, where he signed acts including British singer Ella Mai, as well as fellow California-based artists Kiana Ledé and RJMrLA.
