Matthew Jehu Samuels (born October 12, 1986),[1] known professionally as Boi-1da (a play on Boy Wonder)[2] is a Canadian record producer and songwriter based in Toronto, Ontario.

He is an in-house producer for Drake's OVO Sound label and has produced for a variety of artists and groups, most notably Drake, Rihanna, Eminem, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Nas, Lana Del Rey, Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar among others. In 2015, Samuels served as the executive producer for Drake's mixtape If You're Reading This It's Too Late.

Early life

Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Samuels moved to Canada when he was three and grew up in the North York and Scarborough districts of Toronto.[3][4] He was also raised in Ajax, Ontario, where he attended Pickering High School.[5][6] His father was a keen listener of dancehall music and so Samuels was brought up listening to Jamaican music.[7] At the age of eight, his mother bought him a Casio keyboard, and at the age of 15, a friend had introduced him to FL Studio (formerly Fruity Loops). Without any formal musical training, he started using the FL Studio beat-making program. A few years later, he won three consecutive Battle of the Beatmakers championships; because of this accomplishment, he was given a spot in the Battle of the Beatmakers judging panel.

His first production work was at the age of 18, when he worked on two tracks on a mixtape (Room for Improvement) for Drake.[3]

Career

Samuels began his career producing for Canadian actor Drake's early mixtapes, Room for Improvement (2006) and Comeback Season (2007). In 2008, he produced "Set It Off" by Canadian rapper Kardinal Offishall, which featured American rap duo Clipse and spawned a remix from American rapper Dr. Dre.[8] In an interview with FLOW 93.5, Boi-1da revealed that he was working on beats for Dr. Dre's highly anticipated album, Detox, which was to be released in 2011.[9] However, that album was indefinitely shelved,[10] and none of the released or leaked tracks by Dr. Dre featured Boi-1da's production. He has since stated that he was working with songwriter Sean Garrett and has submitted tracks for Usher.[11]

In 2010, Boi-1da produced his first song to peak the US Billboard Hot 100, "Not Afraid" by Eminem. He also produced "hahahaha jk?" from Das Racist's debut album Sit Down, Man the same year.Шаблон:Citation needed

In March 2013, he produced "5AM in Toronto" by Drake, which was later released in Drake's 2019 compilation album, "Care Package".

Boi-1da worked with rapper Lecrae on his song "Gimme a Second" from his mixtape Church Clothes.[12] He also collaborated with rapper Bizzle on his 2013 album The Good Fight3.[13] He is also a member of Drake's October's Very Own with Noah "40" Shebib and T-Minus.Шаблон:Citation needed

In January 2016, Rihanna released the dancehall track "Work", featuring Drake.[14] The song peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the second Boi-1da produced track to top the charts. Between 2016 and 2017, Boi-1da continued to produce dancehall tracks, such as Drake's "Controlla", Tyga's "1 of 1", PartyNextDoor's "Only U" and Nicki Minaj's "Regret in Your Tears".[7]

He co-produced the 2016 Kanye West single "Real Friends".

In September 2017, he produced "No Limit" by G-Eazy featuring A$AP Rocky and Cardi B.

In June 2019, he produced "No Guidance" by Chris Brown featuring Drake. In July 2019, he produced "1000 Nights" by Ed Sheeran featuring Meek Mill and A Boogie wit da Hoodie.

In October 2020, he produced "Tyler Herro" by Jack Harlow.

In October 2023, it was announced that he had partnered with alcohol brand Bacardi to release an AI-powered album called ‘The A.I. Powered Album’, which involves training an AI model on a selection of his unreleased beats.[15]

Musical style

Boi-1da is known for his distinctive dancehall sound,[16] having been brought up listening to dancehall before hip-hop.[7] He often incorporates live instrumentation and an air horn sound effect into his beats, as used in dancehall and reggae, and frequently incorporates samples in his productions.[7] Boi-1da has spoken out against songs which imitate dancehall, criticising fellow Toronto musician Tory Lanez for doing so in his 2016 single "Luv".[17]

He currently uses FL Studio 12 to make beats, previously, he used Fruity Loops 3.56, 7 XL and 9.[1][4]

Boi-1da has spoken about being influenced by producers such as Dr. Dre, Swizz Beatz, Timbaland, and The Neptunes.[7]
