“In the middle of my #NoCommissionShanghai Genesis wanted me to hear his new beat 1234567 thx @brooklyn_lighthouse on the gear,” he captioned the video. No Commission Shanghai, which he mentions in the post is an art installation in China that Swizz curated. 

Last year, Swizz shared news that his other son with Alicia, Egypt, was a co-producer on Kendrick Lamar’s “Untitled Unmastered” project. And Egypt also wrote and composed his first song called “Super-boy” that Swizz shared on Instagram as well.
