American DJ, producer, and recording artist DJ Dutchmaster (Lemuel R. Reaves) has announced the official video premiere of his new single "WAY I GET IT V4 ft Rick Ross" set for August 30th, 2026 on YouTube. The announcement, made today, represents the fourth installment in his long-running Way I Get It series and his most high-profile collaboration to date, featuring Grammy-nominated rapper Rick Ross.
Active since 1994 and hailing from Latta, South Carolina, DJ Dutchmaster is known for his Dirty South production, trap percussion, and luxury lifestyle rap anthems. The new visual is the latest chapter in a series that has become a signature part of his discography. "V4 is the payoff," says DJ Dutchmaster. "I started DJing in South Carolina in '94. That name started as a joke with my brother and turned into a legacy. To have Rick Ross on V4 shows how far this Pee Dee sound has come."
The track follows independent releases from 2025-2026 including "All In My Head," "ILY (I Love You)," and "Death: The Rebirth." According to the announcement, the video will premiere on YouTube and will be available on all major platforms via I Man Move Forward Entertainment.
For fans and industry observers, this collaboration signals a significant step for an artist who has built a career independently over three decades. The involvement of Rick Ross, a heavyweight in hip-hop with multiple platinum albums, brings national attention to DJ Dutchmaster's work and to the South Carolina music scene. The Pee Dee region, often overlooked in mainstream hip-hop, gains visibility through this partnership.
The release also underscores the power of independent artistry in the digital age. DJ Dutchmaster has leveraged platforms like Spotify and YouTube to build an audience without major label backing. His official site at Google Sites serves as a hub for his releases. The Way I Get It series, now in its fourth iteration, demonstrates how consistent content creation can lead to high-profile collaborations.
For listeners, the upcoming video offers a chance to see two distinct styles merge: DJ Dutchmaster's Southern trap foundation and Rick Ross's signature luxurious delivery. The track is expected to resonate with fans of both artists and could introduce DJ Dutchmaster to a broader audience. As independent hip-hop continues to thrive, releases like this highlight the genre's diversity and the opportunities for regional artists to reach global audiences.
