ON SUCH SHORT NOTICE, I HAD A CHANCE TO PEEP FAM'S BEATS...BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT...CHECK OUT THE HOMIE DEETAH FOR YOURSELF!!
Tah Ismael Dembele, as known as Deetah The Masterpiece is from Yamoussoukro, Ivory Coast’s political capital. He has the same physique as Bob Marley and similar eyes to the late great Notorious BIG. While others appear to be trend followers, the difference lies within Deetah’s passion for hip-hop. A distinct characteristic Kool Herc and Afrika Bambaata developed in New York within a culture that would affect a younger Ismael in the continent of Africa.
Formerly known as D-Tah; D for Dembele and Tah for his first name, he later changed his stage name to Deetah The Masterpiece to make it memorable. A hip Hop Artist, producer, and owner of his own recording studio, Deetah is no stranger to hard work and dedication to the Hip-Hop way of life, and it shows in his productions.
Deetah started out in France with a group called “Da Mercure” in 2005. With the support of Paterne “Didi F” and “Icepeak” he recorded his first solo project in an appartment next to the beach in Antibes. A year later they would be performing in front of thousands of Hip-Hop heads in the south of france.
In 2007 with the help of Tunisian Music Producer Wechdi Trabelsi, head of Berbere Prod, he released a single to perform live alongside the legendary french rap group 113 in Bizerte (Tunisia) in front of 17000 fans. “One Two” was an instant succes and played in night clubs in Bizerte, Hammamet and Tunis.
In 2012, “Before The Masterpiece” is released independently on Itunes. Deetah did it all by himself: The beats, the recording, the mixing and even the graphic design. It was so important for him to have control over his own art and to keep putting out music that he didnt care for a label. Most surprisingly, “Before The Masterpiece” was popular among the Rap community in Ivory Coast and offered him the chance to get more fans and following. Tracks like “BabiCity” talked to the diaspora while “Im a lover” appealed to a wider audience.
By the end of the year 2013, Deetahmusic.com released “Cristal Clear“, Deetah’s first official music video. Directed by CBE, “Cristal Clear” won the first place at the Coast2coast Live Video Mixer Ed 06/13. Gathering more that ten thousand views on youtube, it was appreciated by Hip Hop purists and lyrically inclined music lovers.

Deetah lives in Montreal (Canada) where he continues his work. Joined by other artists, he’s part of a movement initiated in Ivory Coast to bring Hip-Hop back on the map in Western Africa. “Black Label” is a conglomerate of artists around the world perusing their dreams and working together. Having such a platform as a producer gave him the opportunity to launch Deetahmusic.com’s Freestyle sessions where he invites different rappers and singers to record over his own productions.
Deetahmusic.com launched an online High Quality Beats Store in February 2014, and UIS (Uninterrupted Instrumentals Supply) to serve Hip-Hop & Rnb Indie music artists with a wide variety of well crafted instrumentals.
Deetah believes in a world of infinite possibilities, where an African child will not feel disadvantaged but equal to another anywhere else on planet earth
