Dominick Lamb (better known as '''Nottz''') is a Hip Hop Producer from Norfolk, Virginia , U.S. . He sometimes extends his name to '''Nottz Raw'''.


HISTORY


Nottz has produced for some of the biggest names in hip hop including Notorious B.I.G. , Busta Rhymes , Method Man , Scarface , Snoop Dogg , and G-Unit . Some of his earliest production work was on the Rawkus Records compilation '' Lyricist Lounge, Volume One '', in 1998 . From there he landed three tracks on Busta Rhymes' '' Extinction Level Event '' LP, after Rhymes stumbled across one of his beattapes.

Like many other hip hop producers to emerge before the 2000s , Nottz borrows samples from old soul records to reconstruct into new beats. West Coast hip hop icon, Dr. Dre , has named Nottz as one of his favourite producers, and has selected him as one of the few guest producers on his much delayed, yet anticipated '' Detox '' album. The producer has also been tapped for Royce Da 5'9" 's upcoming '' Street Hop '' album.

Nottz also has a group called D.M.P., which stands for "Durte Muzik Prahdukshun". They released a Mixtape /album, titled ''Nottz Presents D.M.P.'', in 2005 .

Nottz will release an album with Canadian rapper Kardinal Offishall , tentatively titled ''VATO'', meaning Virginia - Toronto .
