Life and career
In late 2005, he began to gain recognition in the music industry as a producer, after teaming up with American R&B singer Ray J to produce the bulk of his third album Raydiation. Since then he continued to produce tracks for Ray J, and expanded his catalog by working with other prominent artists such as Akon, the Pussycat Dolls, Lil Wayne, Beyoncé, Ashanti, Marques Houston, Lady Gaga, Brandy, Shorty Mack, Christina Aguilera, T-Pain, Jennifer Lopez, R. Kelly, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, and Snoop Dogg.
Detail co-wrote and produced Lil Wayne's hit single "How to Love", for Wayne's 2011 album Tha Carter IV. The single was certified 4× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Detail subsequently signed to Wayne's Young Money Entertainment, as well as Cash Money Records, as a producer.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Recently, he has produced the singles "Drunk In Love" for Beyoncé, "We Dem Boyz" for Wiz Khalifa and "I Luh Ya Papi" for Jennifer Lopez.
Detail received his first Grammy, when "Drunk In Love", performed by Beyoncé and Jay-Z, won Best R&B Song during the 57th Annual Grammy Awards.[9]
As of May 2018, two women, Kristina Buch and Peyton Ackley, have filed legal documents against Detail. Their allegations against him include multiple instances of mental and physical abuse and rape. The two women have since been granted restraining orders against him.[10] The singer Jessie Reyez also revealed that her song Gatekeeper is about him.[11]
Several other women have since joined Buch and Ackley in coming forward with similar allegations, including Jessie Reyez, Bebe Rexha, and Tinashe.[12]
He was arrested on August 5, 2020 and charged with raping five women and sexually assaulting another.[13]
