Antoine Carraby (born December 11, 1967), better known by his stage name DJ Yella, is an American DJ, music producer, and adult film director from Compton, California. He was a member of the World Class Wreckin' Cru along with Dr. Dre. He later became a founding member of the pioneering gangsta rap group N.W.A (composed of DJ Yella, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and Eazy-E). ==Career== Along with Dre, Yella produced Eazy-E's debut album ''Eazy-Duz-It'' and all three N.W.A albums, translating into millions of sales. He co-produced along with Arabian Prince the platinum-selling debut albums of J.J. Fad and Michel'le with Dre and contributed to The D.O.C.'s 1989 album ''No One Can Do It Better'' (also produced by Dre). Jerry Heller witnessed Dre and Yella's work together and wrote in 2006 of an almost eerie understanding between the pair, as they crafted high quality beats and productions with almost no words or full sentences needing to be spoken. Yella remained close to Eazy and stayed on production duties at Ruthless Records after the acrimonious breakup of N.W.A. He produced J.J. Fad's second album ''Not Just a Fad'' (1990), Yomo & Maulkie's album ''Are U Xperienced?'' (1991), two tracks from Eazy-E's ''It's On ( Yella released his 1996 debut solo album ''One Mo Nigga ta Go'' on Street Life Records, featuring members of the Ruthless 'family tree' like Kokane, B.G. Knocc Out, & Dresta, rhyming over his productions. After this record he retired from music to embark on a long and successful 12-year career directing and producing pornographic films. Yella has credited himself with producing over 300 adult films. As of November 26, 2011, Yella has returned to the music industry and has released a new album, entitled ''West Coastin, which was released in the summer of 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「DJ Yella」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
