No ID
By Heather Drake Tuesday, November 16th, 2010
No ID Currently president of the GOOD Music label founded by Kanye West, No ID’s reputation as one of hip hop's most respected producers stretches back to the early 90s. Today, his immense talent is recognized amongst artists and labels alike. The man born Dion Wilson produced two of the biggest hits from Jay-Z's Blueprint 3 album, "Run This Town" and "(D.O.A.) Death of AutoTune."

As president of GOOD Music, he's had a hand in bringing a handful of respected veterans to the label in a relatively brief span of time. Just in the last six months, GOOD Music has signed Mos Def, Pusha T of the Clipse and Big Sean. Not to mention the stable of artists that have been label mainstays; including fellow Chicago native Common and singer/songwriter John Legend.

“The Godfather of Chicago Hip Hop,” No I.D. is still a cornerstone of Midwestern rap music and one of the original stars to emerge from the region. Staying true to that legacy, he is currently in the studio working with Common for the first time in ten years, working on the rapper's new album.
