Mel-Man mp3

Melvin Bradford, better known as Mel-Man, is a hip-hop producer who co-produced Dr. Dre's 2001 album. He also co-produced several tracks with Dr. Dre for Eminem's sophomore album The Marshall Mathers LP. He also performed on the track "Shittin' on The World" from the Dr. Dre Presents…The Aftermath compilation album.

Little is publicly known about Mel-Man. After founding Aftermath Entertainment in 1996, Dr. Dre took on producer Mel-Man as a co-producer, and his music took on a more synthesizer-based sound, using less vocal samples (as he had used on "Lil Ghetto Boy" and "Let Me Ride", for example). Fellow Aftermath producer Focus has credited Mel-Man as a key architect in the current Aftermath sound (see references for details).

Though a co-producer on Dr. Dre's multi-platinum 2001 album, Mel-Man has not shared co-production credits with Dr. Dre since approximately 2002. In 2003, The Source magazine reported that Mel-Man had left Aftermath, though in 2004, Focus stated that Mel-Man had since re-joined the label.
