Jonathan Reuven Rotem (born 1975 in Johannesburg, South Africa) is a Jewish American record producer. He wanted to be a musician and started playing the piano at the age of 2.

In 2006, Rotem started his own record label, Beluga Heights, along with manager Zach Katz, inking a joint deal with Epic and Koch. Sean Kingston, a young Miami-based rapper, was their first signing. Rotem and Katz also started a publishing company under the Beluga Heights umbrella, signing "SOS" co-writer Evan "Kidd" Bogart and UK artist writer Lolene.
