Mark Batson is an American record producer, songwriter, and keyboardist.[1]
As a co-writer and producer with Dr. Dre, Batson is responsible for Jay-Z's 2006 single "Lost One," as well as tracks for Eminem, 50 Cent, Game and Snoop Dogg. He co-wrote James Blunt's 2007 single "1973," and has served as a songwriter, instrumentalist and producer for albums by Dave Matthews Band, Alicia Keys, Anthony Hamilton, Nas, Maroon 5, Beyoncé, and Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, among others.[2][3][4][5]
Batson was formally trained in jazz piano at Howard University before mixing hip hop sampling and drum programming with live instrumentation as part of the group Get Set V.O.P. This blend is characteristic of much of his later production work. He has composed music for the feature films Beauty Shop (2005), Miami Vice (2006), American Hustle (2013) and Triple 9 (2016).[6][7][8][9]
