Salaam Remi has been associated with releases like Lil' Flip's "I Need Mine", Ini Kamoze's "Here Comes the Hotstepper", The Fugees' multi-platinum ''The Score'' LP, and Toni Braxton's "You're Makin Me High." He also produced 10 tracks on the 2002 UK sensation Ms. Dynamite's album titled ''A Little Deeper'', including the hugely successful lead single "Dy-Na-Mi-Tee", which had moderate crossover success in the U.S. market. Salaam contributed tracks to Jurassic 5's 2006 LP ''Feedback'' and Nas's 2006 album ''Hip Hop is Dead'' and racked up production credits on ''Frank'', the platinum debut from North London soul-jazz singer Amy Winehouse. He worked on Winehouse's follow up, ''Back to Black'', and was producing her third album that was to be released in 2011 up until her death. Remi worked with Nelly Furtado on her first Spanish language album, ''Mi Plan''. His projects in late 2008 include Jazmine Sullivan, Nas, Free, Julian Perretta, Leona Lewis and Corrine Bailey Rae.
