Ariel’s Final Mix of “I Don’t Think We Can Be Friends” by The Workday Release:
Ariel Chobaz is a GRAMMY-nominated, multi-platinum engineer and mixer with handfuls of Billboard #1s under his belt. He mixed a record-breaking number of singles charted by a female rap album with Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday. He and Minaj also set the record for the most songs on the Billboard Hot 100 chart by a single artist. Ariel mixed Minaj’s “Super Bass” hit, which became one of the highest selling singles in US history. His clients include a who’s who of chart-topping hip hop and pop artists, like Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Drake, Justin Bieber, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Tyga, Lil Wayne, B.o.B., and many more.
Before all of that, though, Ariel had to develop the work ethic that would eventually earn him the subsequent credits he’s achieved. Beginning in music school and taking him through running and assisting at Larrabee Studios, his can-do attitude and attentiveness progressed into the skills that have made him a modern hip hop asset.
