The “Cowboy Carter” tour has arrived in Chicago, and as Beyoncé takes the stage at Soldier Field on Thursday night, she’ll be performing a song with local ties.

David Doman, recognized in the music scene as D.A. Got That Dope, has crafted beats for numerous entertainers. He has built a reputation as a sought-after producer for both emerging talents and top-charting artists.

One beat in particular caught the ear of a megastar.

“I was like, this just sounds really good,” Doman said. “I worked on it for a while, sent it off to some people.”

That group included producers for Beyoncé.

D.A. found out only weeks before “Cowboy Carter” was released that his beat made the album on a song called “Tyrant.”

While D.A. has not met Beyoncé, he’s honored to have contributed to her Grammy award-winning album.

“Beyoncé and Dream collaborated on the track. Beyoncé is an exceptional songwriter,” Doman stated. “Many people overlook her skills in this area. Besides having a phenomenal voice and being an incredible dancer, she’s also a remarkable writer.”

D.A. is a father of two and lives in Los Angeles, but he grew up in Rogers Park and Evanston, where he discovered his passion for music. His family is still in the Chicago area and is proud of his success.

‘I know that he has already had placements with some very well known musicians leading up to that, but when I heard about the Beyoncé one, that topped it off,” D.A’s father Jeffrey Doman said.

D.A. also has a record label and is signing new artists. In the meantime, he’s grateful for his accomplishments.

“I don’t know if necessarily my career has changed because of it,” D.A. said. “It’s more of just an appreciation and thankfulness to be able to work with someone like that.”

D.A. saw a couple of Beyoncé’s shows in Los Angeles and plans to go her show at Soldier Field on Thursday.
