Biography
Studdah started from the ground up; he drove a Winnebago during the Anthrax/Public Enemy tours for Chuck D's rap group known as the Young Black Teenagers which featured DJ Skribble and Kamron. Studdah Man then went back out on the road as the lighting director for another rap group known as “Son of Berserk”; this group was another band that Chuck D had on his MCA/Soul label. From starting out as a driver, he moved on to become assistant road manager then road manager for “Hyenas in the Desert” another MCA/Soul artist as well as “The Young Black Teenagers”. In 1990 Professor Griff gave Studdah his first chance to produce, mix and write with him on his “Disturb-N-Da-Peace” solo LP released out on Luke Records. Studdah got the name Studdah Man from Professor Griff of Public Enemy while working with Griff on his “Disturb N Da Peace” album because Sean De Vore used to stutter.
Studdah came back to New York in 1991 after living in Miami for 3 months with Professor Griff and the 2 Live Crew while working on Prof Griff's album. Once back in NY, Studdah reunited with his long-time friend Gary G-Wiz, who was the new force behind all the Public Enemy current hits. G Wiz took Studdah under his production wing and their first remix project together was for Eric B. and Rakim “Heat It UP” off the Gun Man Sound track. Studdah's first participation to produce on a Public Enemy album was in 1994 on the “Muse Sick In Hour Mess Age” album. The biggest hit off of that album was “Give It Up” which Gary G Wiz and Studdah produced. The next full Public Enemy album Studdah produced was the “There’s A Poison Goin' On” which Gary G Wiz and Studdah did the whole album together. Studdah Man was named in 2009 to head Chuck D's SLAMjamz online record label Digital dept.
