Dacoury Dahi Natche (born March 10, 1983), known professionally as DJ Dahi or simply Dahi, is an American record producer, songwriter, disc jockey and singer from Inglewood, California. Working primarily in hip hop and R&B music, he has been credited on commercially successful singles including "Money Trees" by Kendrick Lamar, "Worst Behavior" by Drake, and "I Don't Fuck with You" by Big Sean—the latter rose to number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.[2] He made his vocal debut on Lamar's 2018 single "Loyalty", which he also produced.[3]
Dahi won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Song in 2020 for his work on "A Lot" by 21 Savage. He has also been nominated for four Grammy Awards in the Album of the Year and Best Rap Album categories, and once for Producer of the Year, Non-Classical.[4] Aside from his solo production career, Natche is also a member of production team D.R.U.G.$.[5]
Musical career
[edit]Dahi learned disc jockeying while he was attending the University of California, Santa Cruz, where he majored in Film and American studies.[6] After returning to Los Angeles in 2007, he started collaborating with local rappers such as Pac Div, TiRon, and Fashawn.[7] Dahi also collaborated with Dom Kennedy and ScHoolboy Q before he achieved his first commercial success in 2012 with "Money Trees" from Kendrick Lamar's platinum album Good Kid, M.A.A.D City.[8][9] The album received several nominations including one for Grammy Album of the Year and Rap Album of the Year in 2014,[10] while "Money Trees" was named by Complex as the ninth best instrumental of the previous five years.[11][8]
In 2013, Dahi produced "Worst Behavior" by Drake that charted at number 89 on the US Billboard Hot 100 after its release in 2014.[12][13] The following year, he co-produced the Big Sean single I Don't Fuck with You, which reached the top of the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hiphop songs chart[14] and received 8× Platinum certification from RIAA.[15] Dahi was also credited as a songwriter and producer for five tracks in Madonna's 2015 album Rebel Heart.[7] The same year Dahi co-produced three tracks on the album Compton: A Soundtrack album by Dr. Dre.[9]
In 2016, Dahi co-produced "U with Me?" for the album Views by Drake, which earned him his second Grammy nomination for Album of the Year.[4] He also put forward a tentative release date for his own solo album titled The Good Seed, but the album did not materialize in 2016.[7]
Dahi collaborated a second time with Kendrick Lamar in 2017 and produced five tracks in the album DAMN that included "Loyalty" featuring Rihanna and "XXX" featuring U2.[16] The album received several critical accolades including a Pulitzer Prize for Music and the Best Rap Album at the 2018 Grammy Awards. In 2020, the album was ranked 175th on Rolling Stone's updated list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.[17]
In 2018, Dahi produced two songs in 21 Savage's studio album I Am Greater than I Was. One of the songs, "a lot", earned him the 2020 Grammy Award for Rap Song of the Year.[4]
In 2019, Dahi collaborated with indie pop band Vampire Weekend for their album Father of the Bride and co-produced the single "Big Blue", which charted number 33 in US Hot Rock & Alternative Songs (Billboard).[18] He also co-produced the 2020 Childish Gambino album 3.15.20 that included "Time" featuring Ariana Grande and "Psilocybae (Millennial Love)" featuring 21 Savage, Ink and Kadhja Bonet among seven other tracks co-produced by him.[19] In 2021, he produced "Gravity", a single by Brent Faiyaz and himself featuring Tyler, the Creator, which reached a peak position on 71 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and was certified Platinum by RIAA.[15]
Dahi teamed up with Kendrick Lamar again in 2022 and co-produced five tracks for Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. The album received nomination for Album of the Year and won in the Best Rap Album category in the 2023 Grammy Awards.[4] Dahi also received a Producer of the Year nomination for his work on Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, Gemini Rights by Steve Lacy and Ramona Park Broke My Heart by Vince Staples.[4]
In 2023, Dahi appeared in the documentary film Anthem directed by Peter Nicks, which followed Dahi and composer Kris Bowers on a musical road trip across the United States in a bid to reimagine the national anthem.[20] The film premiered at Tribeca Festival in June 2023 and was acquired by Onyx Collective for Hulu.[21]
Dahi has a publishing contract with Sony Music Publishing[22] and is a SESAC member.[23]
