Seattle super producer and self proclaimed "great beat writer" Jake
One steps from behind the boards to present his own debut full-length
album, White Van Music. Polishing his production chops over the last
decade, Jake One has crafted the musical soundscapes for everyone
from De La Soul ("Rock Co.Kane Flow" feat. MF DOOM) to 50 Cent ("All Of
Me" feat. Mary J. Blige). With an impressive and diverse discography
Jake One has managed to bring his sound from the underground to the
Billboard Top 10 charts.

The album contains a cast of legendary guest rappers ranging from some of Hip Hop's most respected mainstream acts Freeway, Young Buck & Busta Rhymes to underground legends MF DOOM, Brother Ali & Little Brother. Jake One's White Van Music will blur the so called lines between underground and mainstream Hip Hop...just as his stellar production career has.
