Do you have what it takes to be South Africa’s new best music producer?
Season two of the Rémy Producers local music competition recently opened, giving young and upcoming talent the opportunity to not only become one of the country’s best beatmakers but also share their talent on a global stage.
In partnership with local duo Major League Djz, the music competition replicated the US series by pairing renowned producers with budding artists to give them a foot in the industry.

“We are cognisant that there are many young talented South Africans who aspire to make it big but do not have the opportunity for exposure. This competition offers our aspiring artists the opportunity to be recognised and be mentored into seasoned producers,” said Jerome Adonis, portfolio manager at Edward Snell and Co, on behalf of Rémy Martin South Africa.
He added that partnering with Major League DJz this season was a major positive for both the brand and the participants as the duo was recently signed to global record label brand Atlantic Records.
