Life and career

In late 2005, he began to gain recognition in the music industry as a producer, after teaming up with American R&B singer Ray J to produce the bulk of his third album Raydiation. Since then he continued to produce tracks for Ray J, and expanded his catalog by working with other prominent artists such as Akon, the Pussycat Dolls, Lil Wayne, Beyoncé, Ashanti, Marques Houston, Lady Gaga, Brandy, Shorty Mack, Christina Aguilera, T-Pain, Jennifer Lopez, R. Kelly, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, and Snoop Dogg.

Detail co-wrote and produced Lil Wayne's hit single "How to Love", for Wayne's 2011 album Tha Carter IV. The single was certified 4× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Detail subsequently signed to Wayne's Young Money Entertainment, as well as Cash Money Records, as a producer.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Recently, he has produced the singles "Drunk In Love" for Beyoncé, "We Dem Boyz" for Wiz Khalifa and "I Luh Ya Papi" for Jennifer Lopez.

Detail received his first Grammy, when "Drunk In Love", performed by Beyoncé and Jay-Z, won Best R&B Song during the 57th Annual Grammy Awards.[9]

Sexual assault cases

As of May 2018, two women, Kristina Buch and Peyton Ackley, have filed legal documents against Detail. Their allegations against him include multiple instances of mental and physical abuse and rape. The two women have since been granted restraining orders against him.[10] The singer Jessie Reyez also revealed that her song Gatekeeper is about him.[11]

Several other women have since joined Buch, Ackley, and Reyez in coming forward with similar allegations, including Bebe Rexha and Tinashe.[12]

He was arrested on August 5, 2020, and charged with raping five women and sexually assaulting another.[13]

Curently, he is being held on bail of $6.3 million. Detail was arrested for incidents that took place between 2010 and 2018. Earlier, in 2011 he was accused of Sexual Assault and accused of holding a woman against her will and sexually assaulting her following a pre-Grammy party at his home in Canyon Country, California.

According to the source, the woman was a catering assistant and was hired to provide food for the party. TMZ reported that she said that after rebuffing Fisher's advances, he "ripped off her clothes, locked her into a room and then raped her," and she then said that she escaped, told police, and submitted to a rape test.

Later, in 2018 another woman named Kristina Buch filed a lawsuit against Fisher alleging sexual assault, where Kristina Buch is a model and aspiring singer, alleged that he raped her in Miami during a recording session, forced her to have sex in front of others. Furthermore, Peyton Ackley accused the Music Producer of forcing her to have sex with him in front of someone else and forcing her to record him having sex with Kristina. According to the Associated Press, Buch won her $15 million lawsuits in a default judgment because Fisher and his attorney did not respond to court summons or file any documents.[14]

Recently, popular female artists Jessica Reyes, Bebe Rhexa, and Tinashe reported that they felt uncomfortable during recording sessions with Fisher and supported the women making accusations against him.

Rexha tweeted last year: “He tried to do the same thing to me when I was a new artist. Glad these women came out. It’s scary. He tried to with me, but I ran out of that studio. Karma is a bitch.” Later, Tinashe took to her Instagram to comment on Rexha’s post, stating, “The only session I’ve been into this day where I left due to being soooo uncomfortable. Glad he’s being exposed for the f—ing creep he is.”

Singer-songwriter Neisha Neshae also shared her trauma relating to Detail. The “On The Cloud” recording artist wrote in a caption on Okayplayer: “Y’all remember when I went to work with Detail in LA. (Mind you my team of 4 men was there with me.) I was there for 12 hours, I recorded 9 records he wrote. I have not seen or heard (even) one of those songs. Not only that, but he DID also come into the booth while I was WORKING, touching on me & trying to convince me to keep working amidst that. … I didn’t know what to do, I didn’t know what to say… I was frozen & hurt… and I was even sicker I never got my songs.. probably because I didn’t throw my p—-. Which I ain’t never had to do to get where I am.”
