Majic Massey is an artist under SRC Records/Universal Motown

Early life

In high school, Majic was busy winning enough talent shows to land a recording deal with Undeniable Records (run by Major League Baseball legend Frank Thomas) before he graduated. Despite a number of personal setbacks (friends passing away, the label folding), Massey was determined to establish his recording career. Through hard work and personal connections, Majic was able to work with fellow Chicago native and renowned producer No ID, who has worked with artists such as Common and Kanye West, as well as Swizz Beatz, who has worked with Jay-Z and DMX.

SRC/Universal

Steve Rifkind’s SRC/Universal recognized his strong work ethic, and more importantly his talent, and signed Majic to a recording deal in 2005. Rifkind connected Majic with DeVyne Stephens, who has helped develop the careers of superstars including Usher, Mariah Carey and Akon. Massey now splits time between Chicago and Atlanta, the latter being home base to Stephens’ management company UpFront Megatainment.

The Love D.N.A. Project

“My definition for Love D.N.A is baby-making music. It’s the blueprint to making love.” Maybe it’s Majic’s modesty, or his upbringing singing in church that prevents him from saying exactly what Love D.N.A. is; audio foreplay. Love D.N.A manages to include all the sights and sounds he grew up absorbing in Chicago. “Chicago is known for slick talkers, pimps…[and] it’s very religious,” begins Majic. “You can go from looking up to a lady’s man, or … you can look up to a pastor. I chose to incorporate it all in my music. When you listen to my music you’re feeling the Midwest, anyone from New York to Atlanta to California and beyond can feel what I’m saying.”

Appearances

Love D.N.A. is packed with contributions from established production heavyweights including Swizz Beatz and Scott Storch (Dr. Dre, Big Boi) as well as scorching newcomers Chris Henderson (Jaime Foxx’s “Blame It”) and Lil Ronnie (R. Kelly “Same Girl”). Chicago rap legend Twista is also featured in "Love D.N.A." on Majic's hit single "I Want Her^[1]" which is currently the #1 requested single added to Urban radio.
