Martin Smith aka DJ Graffiti has become an icon of Michigan’s Hiphop community by creating mixed compilations with an uncompromising level of quality. “My goal is to create projects that sound better, look more professional and reach farther than those currently available,” he explains. “It’s not about competition, but I know that if my focus is always on bringing something improved to the table, I won’t be taking steps backwards.” Graffiti’s focus, since 1997, has earned him the title of Michigan Mixtape King.
Even in the wake of huge scrutiny on the mixtape game, Graffiti is in the process of not just accelerating his mixtape hustle, but opening new doors for the mixtape game as a whole by creating an international fully licensed mixtape platform.
A jazz percutionist by trade, Graffiti has performed in the world renowned Montreaux Jazz Festival. By building upon his classically trained musical foundation and strong scholastic background, the Ann Arbor native has developed proficient skills in many areas of Hiphop. Aside from being a prolific club, Mixtape and performing deejay, he has also been featured as a producer, emcee, journalist and an alumnus of both the University of Michigan Business and Law Schools. Additionally, he is the tour deejay for Detroit emcee Phat Kat.
Aside from project releases and touring the US and abroad, Graffiti has successfully expanded his marketing conglomerate Rapture Enterprises LLC into the area of Entertainment Brokerage.
