The Alchemist has been an active producer since 1991. He hails from affluent Beverly Hills, California. After rising to prominence in the late 1990s as a close associate of Dilated Peoples, he went on to produce for many of hip-hop's leading artists in the 2000s.
As a teen, Al began to identify strongly with the rebellious lyrics and urban sounds of hip-hop, and he began writing his own lyrics as a creative outlet. He joined up with other like-minded artists who wrote lyrics and rebelled strongly against their "uptight" suburban surroundings, among whom were Shifty Shellshock of Crazy Town, Evidence of Dilated Peoples and Scott Caan, son of James Caan. They would often hang out in urban areas of Los Angeles and participated in typical teenage rebellious activities like partying, smoking marijuana, and general mischief.
Al and Scott decided to become a duo named The Whooliganz. While rhyming at a party in L.A., they attracted the attention of B-Real of Cypress Hill. He invited the teens to join his crew, The Soul Assassins, which also included the groups House of Pain and Funkdoobiest. In 1993, the Whooliganz released their first single, "Put Your Handz Up." The song received little radio airplay and their record label, Tommy Boy Records, decided to shelve their album. Rejected, Scott focused his creative energy on acting while Al became interested in process of making hip-hop beats.
DJ Muggs took Al under his wing and taught him how to use a sampler and mixing board. After helping to produce a few tracks for Cypress Hill, Al became the main producer for his childhood friend, Evidence and his group Dilated Peoples. When Dilated debuted in 1998, they were an underground sensation creating a huge buzz about the man behind those incredible beats.
In 1999, Muggs introduced Al to his good friends, the popular hip-hop group Mobb Deep. Al produced two songs for their Murda Muzik album. Impressed by his production skills and street smarts, Mobb Deep took him under their wing, using his beats on all their subsequent albums. As Alchemist's profile increased, he went on to produce for many of hip hop's most successful and prominent artists, such as Nas, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, Ghostface Killah and Snoop Dogg. He has also remixed songs for bands and artists in other genres such as Linkin Park and Morcheeba. Al stayed loyal to his old friends, continuing to produce for Dilated, Cypress Hill, Everlast (formerly of House of Pain) and Crazy Town. He also enjoys producing for lesser-known underground rappers, often giving them some of his best beats. In 2004, 11 years after his rapping career folded, The Alchemist returned with his long-awaited debut album, "1st Infantry." The album yielded the hit single "Hold You Down" (featuring Prodigy, Illa Ghee, and Nina Sky), which hit number ninety-five on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2005.
Alchemist was the official tour DJ for Eminem on his 2005 Anger Management 3 Tour, replacing the recently-ousted DJ Green Lantern. However on July 13, 2005, the tour bus carrying Eminem's entourage (including rapper Stat Quo as well as Alchemist) swerved off the road and turned over. Alchemist was treated for broken ribs and a collapsed lung.
The Alchemist is one of the music producers behind the video game Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars released by Rockstar Games. He was also on Tim Westwood TV, when Eminem, Royce Da 5'9" and Mr. Porter freestyled. During an interview with Worldwide Conspiracy Radio, The Alchemist revealed he would be dropping a 2-part project with fellow West Coast producer Oh No entitled Gangrene, the first to be released in July, the second in November, both on Decon. Alchemist was also the DJ for the Eminem set on the BBC1 chat-show Jonathan Ross on June 4, 2010.
Alchemist is Eminem's official DJ, since DJ Green Lantern departed from Shady Records in 2005 because of a dispute related to the feud of 50 Cent and Jadakiss. In 2006, Eminem released a collaboration album with Shady Records called Eminem Presents: The Re-Up. Since the Alchemist is his official DJ, he produced some of the tracks on the mixtape, as well as compiling the album in a mixtape fashion. On December 18, 2013, he was named the runner-up for Producer of the Year by HipHopDX.

[Strofa 1: Benassa]
In The Panchine dal due doppio zero e tre
Dai CDM al TruceKlan fans club
Dalla presunzione di fa' rap meglio di te
Alla convinzione che 'sta roba non fa per te
Dal '96 sempre presente non me ne fotte niente
È la tua pussy che è un morto vivente
Stimolo carente, abuso di mente
Faccio questo con la sindrome del prepotente
In The Panchine è svegliarsi al fianco del mio amore
Sono Carlo e Francesco a togliermi il dolore
È il mio clan che mi fornisce il giusto rumore
È il calore della mia passione che tanto non muore
In The Panchine è G-Mellow rap e il suo inglese
È Coleman con pochi soldi a fine mese
In The Panchine è Chicoria col telefono che suona
In The Panchine è Tarango che ci porta roba buona
In The Panchine sono io ogni volta che respiro
È il polmone che si dilata quando trattengo un tiro
In The Panchine fuma il crack con la biro
In The Panchine prima ti sparo e poi te miro
È il ricordo del crack nella casa maledetta
A registrare i pezzi col Tascam su cassetta
Al Brancaleone all'Hombre Lobo in saletta
Truceboys vendetta, la mia gente non ti rispetta
[Ritornello: Gemello]
In The Panchine è il fine settimana a strisce
È il cercapersone per una puttana che sparisce
In The Panchine è il rap e io col rap ti martello
È l'eclissi di pussy quando fotti col Gemello
In The Panchine è un'altra storia che finisce
È il cadavere di un cristiano morto sulle strisce
In The Panchine non c'è niente di più bello
Che sgonfiatte di botte in 2 col mio gemello!
[Strofa 2: Gemello]
Sono le carceri, i legacci, i cocomeri marci a starci
Le panchine nei giardinetti a rappresentarci
È Strike di Clockers che beve ciocco merda
È smucinare lo stramonio dentro al tritaerba
Immagina chi è che mi disubbidisce
È la meningite che mi squaglia quando mi colpisce
Sono i graffi il sangue per la zona è il mio ematoma
In The Panchine è la mamma che mi sveglia dal coma
Sono una voce sopra la base sul disco dei Triphase
Sono i cori della Roma a tempo sulla drum'n'bass
Il mio gemello a Subaugusta che fa una busta
In The Panchine è un piatto d'aragosta che 'n t'aggusta
Evelina da Brooklyn Verano Zombie con Noyz
È bada-boom-bada-bang se non conosci i Truceboys
È il mio business di cocco, è il tuo continuo scrocco
È portarsi il fumo dentro al culo dal Marocco!
[Strofa 3: Chicoria]
È i momenti tranquilli sul blocco senza sbiri
È er fiato ar collo quando j'hai da porta' er malloppo
È le scuse e i tic di junkie quando nun c'hanno pe'pagarti
È lo sguardo delle tipe quando tappo le loro fiche
È la birra e 'r vino pe' Tommasino
È il tajo e la merce vanno sempre assieme
È l'amarezza de star solo ne'a monnezza
È la più grande ricchezza qualcuno che a te pensa
In The Panchine è ciò che provo
Incastro in un cazzo de testo
Er microfono se squaja
In The Panchine 'a roccia quaja da sola
Senza fiamma, se è Chicoria che parla
È 'a legge der taglione che s'accolla ogni singolo scrittore
È er treno totalmente coperto de nero e argento
È fasse 'na corsetta dopo che spara 'a Beretta
È scoatta' in stazione quanno arriva il tuo cazzo di vagone
È prenne' quello che te serve senza chiede'
È farlo pe' i motivi giusti
Tu che cazzo ti fumi?
È che me so' rotto er cazzo
Ce voi veni' tu al mio angolo?
Vojo vede' quanto duri
Pe' me manco du' minuti!

È il cadavere di un cristiano morto sulle strisce
In The Panchine non c'è niente di più bello
Che sgonfiatte di botte in 2 col mio Gemello!
[Strofa 4: Gemello]
Sono tutto quello che avevi e che adesso non hai più
Sono i featuring che ti sei perso a straparlare del tuo crew
Tu non sai scrivere una canzone d'amore
Vai a lezione dar Cannas per 24 ore
Carmelo Anthony da Remix che cerca dischi usati
È la mia banda segreta con sempre più aggregati
Sono quei poracci che c'hanno da ridire sul mio inglese
Sono le offese dai vetri oscuri del Mercedes
In The Panchine è lo sbirro con gli occhiali a goccia
In The Panchine è trattenere tutto il fumo della roccia
È chi spaccia chi minaccia sulla traccia
In The Panchine sono gli occhi grandi senza faccia
È progettare un disco rap col caldo a luglio
In The Panchine è una guardia camuffata da cespuglio
Ci trovi i petardi anche quando è tardi
Scene da 4 soldi no nun te mannamo caldi
ITP è la cricca molesta e mi sostiene
È il tuo rapper preferito che si taglia le vene
In The Panchine è il Chicoria che mi vuole bene
Sono i Vandals Inside, Kimo, Savage Boys tutti insieme!
