Damon Blackmon, or Dame Grease, is a Harlem, New York based video and music producer.
Before becoming a staple on every mixtape, The LOX relied on the sounds of Grease in order to acquire the street buzz that landed them their deal on Bad Boy Records in 1996. Fellow Bad Boy Mase sought out Grease’s distinctive sound and gave him the opportunity to provide production on Mase’s triple platinum Harlem World. This led to Grease’s work as the primary producer on DMX’s classic debut It's Dark and Hell Is Hot, where Grease helped the Ruff Ryders mold both their image and their sound into what would become one of the most well-known hip hop crews. During this time, Grease taught and paved the way for Swizz Beatz, another sample-free producer, to make his mark on the game.
As Swizz began to make his mark through the teaching of his mentor, Dame Grease landed a deal with Priority Records to release music through his label, Vacant Lot. Rather than accept offers to be one of Puff Daddy’s legendary Hit Men or an in-house producer on Ruff Ryders, Grease chose to create his own Vacant Lot production company. In 2001, Dame Grease made the accession from producer to composer by providing the score for the Steven Seagal/DMX blockbuster Exit Wounds. In addition to his work on the film, Dame Grease also reunited with DMX on the soundtrack for X’s top-ten hit "Ain’t No Sunshine", an updated, yet much darker remake to the Bill Withers 1972 classic of the same name. Grease continued his work as a composer in on the 2003 box-office hit Cradle 2 the Grave, starring Jet Li, DMX, Gabrielle Union, and Anthony Anderson, as well as 2004’s Never Die Alone.

Let's make a movie man
Let's make a movie
Uhhhh my back against the wall, I make dem good shots mane
Until his body, He sold my mama cocaine
My heart turned to frost, And I ain't sayin no names
But I'm a kill em all, I'm a kill em all
Smashin the four five, I'm a kill em all
Shoppin them all down, I'm a kill em all
They call me the mayor, got 21 flavors, ain't nothin gon save ya
There's a lot of people talkin bout the Wave Gang this n that
Yeah I see your lips movin but why your f***** jaw cracked?
Homie shoulda ducked fast but yeah he caught a two piece
Welcome to the fight club, His knees lookin wobbly
It ain't no fair ones in da hood, where I'm from
I seen a chick get knocked out, even got her mama jumped
Auntie got whipped out & then she called the police
Her baby daddy stabbed her even slapped the little niece
D***
This S*** is graphic mane
You know what I'm sayin
Dats da s*** that I've seen man
Ya know
S***, What you life like?
My back against the wall, I make dem good shots mane
Until his body, He sold my mama cocaine
My heart turned to frost, And I ain't sayin no names
But I'm a kill em all, I'm a kill em all
Smashin the four five, I'm a kill em all
Shoppin them all down, I'm a kill em all
They call me the mayor, got 21 flavors, ain't nothin gon save ya
There's a lot of people talkin s*** the Wave Gang still here
If you're not gettin money you should've died last year
A body for a body
A brick for a brick
We can do it any way you want it
A chick for a chick
I F***** [? ]
[? ]
And then we went to bedrock
I ain't but heard the speakers pop
I'll pass her off to Al Pac
Then after that Party Up
We don't do da ginger hoes
B****** this ain't casinos
Hahahahahah ohhhhhh
I like dat movie
My back against the wall, I make dem good shots mane
Until his body, He sold my mama cocaine
My heart turned to frost, And I ain't sayin no names
But I'm a kill em all, I'm a kill em all
Smashin the four five, I'm a kill em all
Shoppin them all down, I'm a kill em all
