Baseline Studios, the long-running 26th Street studio most recently operated by star hip hop producer Just Blaze, closed its doors yesterday, January 28. An open house was held to commemorate the last day of the celebrated facility that had been home Roc-A-Fella Records, and was first owned by Jay-Z and O.G. Juan.
The atmosphere was respectful but positive as fans, artists, producers and media paid their last respects to the landmark studio, which had recorded hits for the likes of Kanye West, Saigon and countless others. Baseline Studios was a cornerstone of the NYC hip hop recording scene — its presence will be missed.
