This year, T Magazine covered a wide-ranging number of topics, from James Baldwin's enduring 1956 novel "Giovanni's Room" to the symbolism of the Japanese cherry blossom to the figures shaping today's culture, including the hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz, the actress Rachel Weisz and the fashion designer Jonathan Anderson.

The track was released early this morning via Swizz Beatz' Soundcloud page (he is Keys' husband) and stands as a reminder that Kaytranada is one of the dopest, most original producers currently doing it, and hopefully this is only the beginning of a whole lot of new, mind-widening Kaytranada music for 2017.

The hip-hop connection continues to this day, captured in the movies "Roll Bounce," a 2005 period piece starring the rapper Lil' Bow Wow, and "ATL," a 2006 comedy-drama with T.I. The music video for "Theme Music," released this year by Fabolous, Jadakiss and Swizz Beatz, featured skaters from Branch Brook.

It's the surprise guests though, like those due to perform alongside New York's own Swizz Beatz, who have traditionally made Summer Jam the stuff of hip-hop legend — on the stage where everyone from Mariah Carey to Michael Jackson has made an cameo, artists know they have to pull out all the stops.

Limp Bizkit, meanwhile, managed to use the gravitational pull of their massive success to wrangle collaborations with (*inhales deeply*) Method Man and Redman, Swizz Beatz, DMX, Xzibit, Snoop Dogg, Neptunes, E-40, 8-Ball, Timbaland, Diddy, Bubba Sparxxx, DJ Premier, Ice Cube, Birdman, Run-DMC, Lil Kim, Rock from Heltah Skeltah, and Lil Wayne.

Several other names also appeared alongside Kylie Jenner's original "KYLIE WAS HERE" tag, suggesting the likes of Swizz Beats, The-Dream, Fonzworth Bentley, and more, had all worked on the album or at the least been in the studio during recording; making the tracklist look a little like a guestbook for a very weird house party.

Among the artists who have been compelled to release music addressing the issue of police violence against black people in recent days are—along with Jay Z—Miguel, Kendrick Lamar and ScHoolboy Q's Black Hippy crew, Z-Ro and Mike Dean, Scarface and Swizz Beatz, Slim Thug, Mistah F.A.B., Princess Nokia, and the combination of B.o.

The new initiative, under the auspices of the Dean Collection — the contemporary art collection he and his wife Alicia Keys created — received thousands of submissions from artists across the world, and Swizz (real name Kasseem Dean) worked with a curatorial team of more than a dozen people to pick 2200 artists, each of whom will receive $2200,000.

To make a splash on the city's jaded art scene, he hosted a lavish after-party at the Russian Tea Room, spooning lobster and caviar for 1,000 guests including the musicians Pharrell Williams and Swizz Beatz; the fashion designers Olivier Theyskens, Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs; and art-world bigwigs including Peter Brant, Simon de Pury and Jeffrey Deitch.

But who can blame him, with the flitting about Dakar he's been doing, ringing in Naomi Campbell's birthday, meeting Senegal's president, ferrying Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz to watch locally famous wrestlers and hosting a studio opening party on May 26 that brought together some of the most talented artists and designers in West Africa and beyond.

The first launch will include a selection of ready-to-wear items personally curated by Beatz, as well as a constantly rotating collection of shoppable artworks hand-selected by the musician to be displayed in each of Bally's retail stores, including pieces by Ricardo Cavolo, who also worked with Swizz to create a pair of custom Bally sneakers for his collection.
