Hot off the release of his highly anticipated debut album "The Dream Merchant 2" 9th Wonder is venturing on a nationwide tour promoting this most extraordinary album. Packed with Hip-Hop's elite rhyme slayers and 9th Wonder's melodic head nodding beats. You have a album that will defiantly please the ears of the all music lovers. Along with his True School affiliates he will embark on this tour to present that hip-hop is not dead and is live in his soul. In the tradition of producers DJ Premier, Pete Rock, and Kanye West, 9th Wonder has built a bridge that spans the underground and commercial hip-hop world.

In addition to crafting the beats for Little Brother (2003's The Listening & 2005's The Minstrel Show), 9th Wonder has gone on to become one of Hip-hop's most sought after producers, working with a wide-array of artists such as; Jay-Z, Destiny's Child, Mary J. Blige, Lloyd Banks, Mos Def, De La Soul, Memphis Bleek, Jean Grae, Masta Ace, Murs, Buckshot, Masta Ace, Royce 5'9, Ras Kass, Consequence, Saigon, Sean Price and his Justus League cohorts among others. The vast diversity of the artists and genre's 9th Wonder has worked with and in further demonstrates his ability as one of the most talented artists in music today; as his sound is infused with soul loops and jazz sentiment. 9th's background in classical music and music theory gives his music a sonic breath and maturity that surpasses his years. Like the jazz greats Miles Davis and Thelonious Monk, 9th "feels" his music and because of that intimate connection, he creates a sound that transcends Hip-hop, and becomes one with soul, jazz and R&B.

While 9th Wonder may have previously spent the majority of his time collaborating for other artists or in a groupsetting, on 10-09-2007 he finally strikes out on his own with his debut LP Dream Merchant Vol. 2. Littered with some of the finest established lyricists (Saigon, Royce 5'9, Mos Def, Memphis Bleek, Jean Grae, Camp Lo, Buckshot, Sean Price) Hip-hop has to offer, alongside some of the most-promising newcomers (Skyzoo, Torae, Joe Scudda and Kidz In The Hall's Naledge) and former group-members (Little Brother) as well, making Dream Merchant Vol. 2 is a sonic and lyrical tour-de-force. When it came time to decide who he would collaborate with on Dream Merchant Vol. 2, as 9th relays the formula was pretty simple "basically it came down to who wanted to work with me. I wanted to work with a group of artists where some you had heard of and some you haven't, but all in all wanted to work with me, without having to go thru 50 different people to get to the artist. The artists that are on the album are cats who genuinely wanted to do music with me. That was more important to me then anything else.
