The pair have a rather distinctive mixture of sounds as, although Waajeed is primarily a hip hop producer, Saadiq is a protege of Motown songwriter Barrett Strong, making for a finely tuned middleground. As stated in interviews, the name Platinum Pied Pipers was chosen at random and has no connection to the Pied Piper folk tale. Since Detroit is their hometown, they have said that the city is very important to them.

They have a supporting cast who assist them in the studio and onstage; an array of talent...
