Tony Cottrell, better known as Hi-Tek, is an American record producer and rapper from Cincinnati, Ohio.

Hi-Tek started his rap career with hip hop group Mood and had a regional hit with ”Hustle on the Side”. That song was made for Mood’s album Doom, which featured amongst others Brooklyn MC Talib Kweli. Talib and Hi-Tek clicked immediately, and Hi-Tek went on to produce most of Talib Kweli and Mos Def’s Black Star (1998). In 2000, Tek and Kweli (under the name Reflection Eternal) released Train of Thought (2000) on Rawkus Records, with raps by Talib Kweli and beats by Hi-Tek. It enjoyed moderate crossover radio success with the singles ”The Blast” and ”Move Somethin’”. Reflection Eternal released a follow-up album titled Revolutions Per Minute on May 18, 2010.

After signing to Rawkus Records, Hi-Tek produced for a number of the labels projects, including the popular Soundbombing series; a three-record compilation of mostly Rawkus-based artists. In 2001, he released his solo album Hi-Teknology on Rawkus. The album featured appearances by Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Common, Vinia Mojica, Buckshot, and others, with all production handled by Hi-Tek. It received some critical acclaim and spawned a minor hit ”Round and Round” with Cincinnati singer Jonell.
Although the record sold over 250,000 copies, Hi-Tek wasn’t pleased with the promotion of the album, or lack thereof, and he left Rawkus shortly after its release. He then signed to MCA Records after the remix of ”Round and Round” featuring Method Man, became an underground hit. While signed to MCA, Hi-Tek began recording his follow-up album, Hi-Teknology 2: The Chip and produced Jonell’s unreleased debut album for Def Jam.
