“Fresh beats, dope music and years of grinding is how Cannon Music was born,” says master producer Don Cannon. “That’s why I joined Craft Syndicate, a collection of entrepreneurs looking to celebrate the newest creators from the fashion, music, art and film industries.”
DJ Don Cannon and Craft Syndicate are offering a game-changing partnership and opportunity that will also feature lyrical beast G Herbo from Chicago’s East Side.
If you can turn dope beats into unforgettable tracks, then Craft Syndicate wants to put you in the studio with Mr. Money Machine himself and G Herbo — one of the hottest emcees in the game.

Cannon has worked with a who’s who of top 10 rappers including Outkast, Young Jeezy, 50 Cent, and Ludacris. He crafted his unique sound at Clark Atlanta University, where he joined forces with fellow Philadelphia natives to form a DJ collective known as The Aphilliates. His work on the Gangsta Grillz mixtape series along with a stint on Sirius Satellite Radio’s “Shade 45” has positioned him as one of the dirty south’s hottest DJs and personalities.
His eponymous, Cannon Music is a full service production and promotion company. He’s also teamed up with DJ Drama and DJ Sense to create The Academy, an institution that helps prepare the next generation of music entrepreneurs for success.
Hailing from Chicago’s East Side, G Herbo, formerly known as Lil Herb, is a trap music innovator and one of hip-hop’s fastest rising stars. His first two mixtapes were met with broad critical acclaim, while a collab with Lil Bibby has already garnered over 24 million views on YouTube. G Herbo’s lyrical flow has made him one of the most in-demand guest artists for hip-hop’s biggest names. He’s already worked with Nicki Minaj, Common, and Chance the Rapper. G Herbo’s eagerly awaited debut studio album Humble Beast drops later this year.
