While the entire world was celebrating last November with Young Jeezy’s “My President” playing in the background, not too many people stop and wondered who was behind the rousing melody that made the track so monumental. Maybe because Dow Jones and Henny a.k.a. Tha Bizness let their skills do the talking opposed to talking about their skills.

In their first installment of Tha Bizness Presents Behind The Beats, the cousins from Seattle do just that: breaking down the backdrop that will forever link Barack Obama to the Hip-Hop culture.

Be on the lookout for more of these. You may be surprised on how much they’ve contributed to your favorite albums.
