Cleanup[edit]

The "Biography" section needs cleaning up. -- WindFish 23:48, 15 December 2005 (UTC) i wasnt sure how to do it, but i thought that the appearances should include the nba commercials on espn,which also feature ghostwriter. so does the habitat video, mosaic[reply]

I re-arranged the paragraphs, and got rid of that last line (which didn't sound very Encyclopedic (Look to RJD2 to...etc.) to make it more fluent, but it's by no means "done". More info + an complete timeline of RJ's career would be nice...I wouldn't no where to start with that... -- MoaM 4:51, 20 January 2005

Derekpblank 20 Feb 2006 Cleared out the biography section and replaced with Musical Career, which was more fitting and descriptive. Someone with more knowledge of RJD2, please fill in gaps.

Someone needs to add RJ and blueprint's new soul position album "Things Go Better with RJ and Al."

What do you people think of adding in a mention of the more and more popular use of RJ's music in commercials, noteably the use in Wells Fargo bank commercials in the Southern California radio commercials. Destructive Criticism 03:56, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so I tried my hardest to add a useful biography section and adjusted other parts of the article so it flows better. I'm trying to get this article out of a "cleanup" state, any other suggestions? RedRobot 07:39, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to contact RJ.

What about RJD2's work with the MHz crew? Nothing in here regarding his relatively long run as their producer.

Official website <---this is not the official website, but some sort of cybersquatter. It is listed as the official site on his myspace profile though. The link should be removed, imho. -Anon —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.27.234.231 (talk) 16:36, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, although this site is listed on the MySpace I think the domain has expired and has been purchased by a squatter. --BLM 07:50, 21 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by DotBen (talk • contribs)

The Insane Warrior[edit]

RJD2 has released an album, We Are The Doorways, under the name The Insane Warrior, featuring a lo-fi-hop sound harkening back to the retro sensibilities of his early hit single "The Horror". Should be included in discog. - Keith D. Tyler ¶ 15:28, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Capitalization?[edit]

Is it officially RJD2, Rjd2, or rjd2? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rjd2question (talk • contribs) 05:54, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

According to his website, it looks like "rjd2" is the correct (non) capitalization. Bored pedant (talk) 16:15, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
