RushDee McCoy Williams (born August 19, 1987), known professionally and mononymously as RushDee, is an American record producer, songwriter, and recording artist from Saginaw, Michigan. As a songwriter and producer, RushDee has contributed to projects released by recording artists such as Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Lil Baby, Nicki Minaj, Nipsey Hussle, ATL Jacob, Fabolous, Currensy, Serayah, and Ace Hood. He is the founder of entertainment, management, and publishing company BeGenius.
In March 2021, Williams assisted in organizing a protest that took place outside of a Saginaw pizzeria days after a dispute transpired between Williams and the manager of the business. After attempted correspondence on behalf of local news media, the owner of the company issued a statement and the manager was fired.
Via coordination with film producer Randall Emmett, Williams procured his first credits for film score composition with Reprisal and later Hard Kill, both productions of Lionsgate Films. Williams would later move on to working on Television productions such as Love and Hip-Hop: Miami, Black Ink: Chicago, House Hunters, Top Elf, David Makes Man, and the NBA 2K video game series.
Williams operates in the capacity of artist management and has a history of lending his expertise to upcoming recording artists including student attendees of Sylvester Broome Empowerment Village within the Flint Community Schools district.
Recording artists such as Jay-Z, Master P, DMX, Tupac and producers Pharrell Williams, Timbaland, Metro Boomin, Quincy Jones, and Rick Rubin have been cited to be inspirations to Williams' musical development.
Williams also accredits his musical influence to his grandmother, a singer and director of her church choir and his father an instrumentalist playing the conga drums and saxophone.
