The voice of Yo! Majesty - Shunda K aka DJ Slow Jam - is the leader of one of the fastest rising underground hip hop acts in the world - Yo! Majesty. As a quick talking MC, spiritual songwriter, and ambitious entrepreneur, Shunda managed to see her Tampa-based group through to international notoriety and a record deal with Domino Records in 2008.

As DJ Slow Jam, she displays her versatility to the world as not only the hottest female emcee in the game, but the idea to step into the dj world, as an emcee/dj, is genius. We see you Shunda K. It's your time!

As a solo artist, NME named Shunda K to its “Cool List” and earmarked The Most Wanted’s first single “Here I Am To Save The World” as one of “10 Tracks You Need To Hear”. iDJ (UK) declared “Razor sharp drums, old school synth stabs and the Florida rapper's stylish, supercool vocal make this one more essential than a spacesuit on the moon” and Roctober made it known that “The Yo! Majesty goddess is going to make the underground so overground it will just be called 'ground.'“

The New York Times profiled Yo! Majesty alongside Santigold and Kid Sister; NME hailed them as one of America's best new acts; Spin wrote them up multiple times. Most profiles mentioned a few well-trod talking points: They were lesbians, they rapped explicitly about sex and more broadly about God, and their live shows were wild affairs.

Producer located in Tampa/Lakeland. Part of ManBeast.

Worked on tracks for the following artist:

Yo Gotti, Plies, Iceberg, Riskay, 1Hot, Prophit, J’Nelle, Brian-O, LayKay, Shya Lamour, Kumlawdi, SEMI, Hazard County, Ashley Laschelle
