2 CHAINZ - RIOT
“Riot.” Tit told me to come up to the studio and I had a beat that I had made that week and we recorded two joints that night. “Riot” was the second one that I played for him. He recorded the first two that I played for him, and “Riot” was the second one. It just turned out crazy. As soon as it dropped, it just picked up momentum.
CA$H OUT- CA$HIN’ OUT
I have been working with D, who is CEO of Bases Loaded Records. We had done some work before. Ca$h Out was out moving in the club, campaigning his songs and shit. He had a couple street hits in the club. We made one record, probably a year before that and then a year after that we went in and we made “Cashin’ Out.” I feel like it was a good song. When I was mixing it, I feel like it was a number one record. And it came true.
WAKA FLOCKA FLAME- ROOSTER IN MY RARI
I was actually on tour with Waka for about 6 or 7 months. I’ve been vibing with him for a while on the road. I just brought him some beats one day. Actually, I didn’t even think he was going to pick that beat. And shit, he picked that beat and shit, he made “Rooster In My Rari.”
ROCKO- NACHO$
That’s crazy. Actually, the same night I had bought the MPC Renaissance. It was the new one. I went home and I was fucking with it, and “Nacho$” was the FIRST beat I made on it. It was actually the ONLY beat I ever made on it, because after that the software issues kept fucking up with my Logic. So, I stopped fucking with it. I don’t know, I felt like Rocko would be right on it. I took it to him and he instantly recorded it, and shit, it was “Nacho$.”
