What's up, Tony Cood? See, it's funny because, you know, I'm a whole different nigger right now. You know what I'm saying?

No, we're going to get into that. No, we're going to get into that. Because, elaborate, because some of these niggas on here

and be like, nah, that nigga wasn't extra. That's not even his personality. Really? You're like one of the homies from the hood that's like, okay, we probably can't take him over here, but we don't know how he's going to be acting. Yeah. But you know how to handle shit. You know how to handle your candle. Yeah, you know, I'm doing my thing.

You know what I'm saying? But yeah, nigga, I've been knowing you for a minute, man. You've been doing your thing for a minute. No, for sure. You know what I'm saying? Producing. If you all didn't know, you know what I'm saying, Larry J, the producer, he's done a lot. But I want my man to tell me, you know what I'm saying?

where he came from and what he's done. You feel me and what you accomplished, man. Let's start from the beginning, motherfucker, because you've been doing a lot. A whole lot, nigga. I'll be losing track of all the shit I did, bro. First of all, hold on, before you start. I'm going to cut you right up before you start.

Go ahead. Right now, his most recent record right now is YG. You know what I'm saying? If you niggas did know, you know what I'm saying? My boy is on the album right now. I got a two of the things on there. Man, I did Baby Mama. And I also helped out, I also co-produced toxic.

Talk about it. You know, you know, I'm talking my little shit with time. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, I like that. Nah, that shit dope, man. It's a wonderful feeling, you know, just hearing my work, just progressing and shit. Then to be on a big album like that, it's just dope as fuck. I've been seeing you do your shit for a long time, so it is dope as fuck for you to, you know, still be, you know, getting these opportunities.

You feel me. Your relationships are still solid. Ain't one. You're still doing your thing. Ain't nobody, you know, really changed up on you. I don't know yet. You know what I'm saying? I'm asking you that.

Nah, I ain't changed up. Just changed my number. You ain't changed up. You know what I'm saying? Just changed my number. It get crazy in this motherfucking industry, you feel I mean? It do get hard. That's a fact.

Yeah, man. Let's start from the beginning, though, with you, man. Because, you know, you have a good story, man. for the sure I was shit. Really, like, man, shit. I come straight out from me out of South Central, out the Anthrois Park, you know, El Sagando, San Pedro, you know.

Shout out to the South Bay Villas, you know. But, you know, I always had, like, a passion for music. Before I even knew it, like, just coming out of my mom's, like, I already had a passion for this shit, especially because of who my pop says. It's just already embedded in me. What pops was doing? Pops was singing, man.

He don't, you know, if y'all don't know my pops is Elvis. He on Gangsters Paradise. Okay. Sting on the hood. Throw your hands up. First of all, shot R.P. Culeo.

R.P. Cooleo, most definitely. Second of all, I did not know that was your fucking daddy. Mm-hmm. I did not know that was your fucking daddy. Yeah, that's Pops there. Shout out to Pops. Shout out to Pops.

I've been knowing that, nigga, since I was born. That's my mother's friend. You know what I'm saying? Because I grew up on 88th in Broadway. They was been doing their thing. uncles was fucking with him and doing the thing. So for me to be sitting right here with you is really crazy. That's super full circle. Shout out the L.B. again, though.

Shout out the Pops, man. Always been there for a nigger, man. Always just laced me with game. Always, like, since I was young, always had me in the studio, too. Like, diaper on all types of shit. I'm touching buttons and shit. He's smacking my hand. Stop touching shit. Was you there for that L.V. Culeo song? Was you born yet? Yeah, I was born. I was probably like three, four. So, for sure, I mean, I mean, nigga, trips to the mall every fucking weekend.

Oh, so he got the bag. He couldn't complain. What? Couldn't complain, what? Yeah. Stupid bag. I mean, nigga, I know every Saturday I wake up and looking at mom's like, what's up. Pops come and pick me up.

We're going to the mall. Oh, yeah, we're gone. Gone. Dressed and all that. So as far as Pops being in the music, industry like like what kind of like what type of guidance did he give to be 100

when I was getting into like the producer shit I like let pops know like I was doing it but I wasn't trying to like have him like just dictate everything I was doing like you know like because there's some new shit going on yeah so you know he probably might still think

it's like in the old ways but it's like it's a new day and day so I just wanted to just go on my own path going on my own road Like if I fuck up, I above my head, I'm going to learn that on my own. But he's still like just letting me know to just watch who I work with, make sure I just stay on business first, maintain the focus, you know, make sure I just don't slip up. So you and, so moms and pops wasn't living together and shit.

They had broke up or whatever. At that time, they separated. Oh, yeah, okay. They still together right now? They're still cool. They're not together, but they still cool. Oh, okay. They've been cool my whole life.

And you grew up in the anthems. you said. Bonner Ray. You know, and I always wanted to ask, damn this, like,

do y'all digas really consider y'all self from Compton? Or do you all really, really, like,

or is this really some L.A. shit? Because, if you ask me, you think it's from L.A. No,

honestly, no, we don't consider ourselves Compton or Bopton. We don't not. I mean,

I always want to consider things be like, I understand. I understand that because we are, like,

right in the fucking middle. Yeah. West Sao nothing but around the corner from us. So I understand that, but no, we never considered ourselves like bopped and bloods and under that. What school you went to over there? I went to Vanguard, middle school, then, well, I went to Avalon Gardens Elementary on 135th,

we'll pass 135th. Then I went to Vanguard. Went to Centennial for like a quick month. Mom took me out of there when I went to Artichita. Why everybody go to Centennial no longer than 30 days? You know what? That's funny. I guess I mean that shit was just that lit

that shit was that rowdy like and my mom's just like hell no you ain't about to go over there for me that shit is a party you nigga it seemed like like nigga these dinkies is over here going crazy getting this motherfucker bread this shit is right in the heart of this shit that's like a boot camp to real life that shit gonna get you suited and booty for that adult world

niggas no but left out of centennial then I went to Artisia oh okay yeah Lakewood yeah Lakewood I was say Cerritos, but more like Lakewood type shit. Yeah, more like Lakewood. So, you know, as far as when you got out of high school, man, when did you start taking the producer shit, you know what I'm saying, serious?

Honestly, I took it serious when I was still at Artesian, like, 10th grade. So originally I wanted to be like a DJ. But me, I was like the kid that didn't want to ask his kids for a lot. I wasn't like to spoil your kids. So, like, once I seemed like how much just for one turntable cause, I'm like, no, fuck that. I'm about to see what's up with this producing shit. Plus, I was already beatboxing,

and, you know, I'm the nigga in the back of the class, banging on the tables and shit. So, motherfucker's telling me, like, you need to make your own beast. You need to do this. I'm like, how the fuck I do that? I don't know how to make no damn beast, but I started just researching,

found out about FL studios, downloaded the shit, and shit, it just went on from there. I've been fucking with that for sure since the 10th grade. So you've been, you taught yourself how to do this shit. Yeah. Because usually when you come up in the game and you doing your thing,

it's always like either a family member or an friend or, you know, some nigga taught him how to do the beats, the bass, you feel me? Oh, yeah, no, it's just, I naturally told myself the whole way, like, everything. Like, well, me starting off, because, you know, you start off, your beat's going to be whack as fuck. Yeah. So I just naturally just taught myself looking on YouTube for tutorials and shit.

I just progressed and started learning small shit. So how did you get, how did you first start, you know what I'm saying, issuing your beats out like uh around like school and shit man like this is when i'm like man yeah i'm making beats now and i'm trying to give certain homies beats for like free type shit and you know it was it was starting to go up a little bit but then like after high school that's when i started like getting into like the jerk movement like the jerk movement that's what really tossed it up yeah that's it really turned it up for me yeah turned it up like who was your who was the first artist like you know what this is

I think I got something with this nigga. This nigga might blow me up. Man, the first nigga, like, that really helped blow me up in the jerk movement was that nigga Cliff Savage. I don't know if you ever remember that nigga name, but I got linked up with him through one of my

other homies, his name Freeze. He helped me up with him. I sent over some beats. And the next thing I know, he's putting the shit up on YouTube and that shit like doing numbers low-key. Yeah. I mean, I'm a, well, I'm a

bring up a situation, I asked you for some beats one time, and you ignore this, dude. Here this, nigga, go. No filter the messiest podcast in the world. I asked you for some beats, nigga, and you didn't send me no beats.

Come on, my, nigga. I didn't see you no beats, but how did Crips run the world and streets getting tricky happen? I just want you to bring that up. No, because I was bullshit. Come on. Don't do me. Don't do me. Don't do me. Come on.

Yeah, like that. Talk to be quick, but don't talk slick. Yeah, my nigga did send me some beats, though. I'm like, you really been doing your thing for a long time, and you were like, no mark-ass-nagger or no weirdo-ass-nigger. Like, you're really seeing, I don't know if it was the, you know, some of your best work. I wouldn't have you, you know what I'm saying, it banged to me,

but you really sent it through. Honestly, I mean, shit. I don't know how other producers work, but, like, with me, it's like anybody that I want to fuck with me, like first depression is everything to be so far if this is your first time hearing me I'm gonna make sure I send you some dope-ass shit so you'll be like oh this nigga's hard

I gotta keep fucking with this nigga yeah would you rather now would you rather get in the in a studio and cook up some shit from scratch thing or would you rather you know what I'm saying just send that packet out because me personally like as a

when I was rapping I was gonna say as an artist because that's what I'm not you know what I'm saying You know what I'm saying? I'm like, this thing is shit the d'nigua 20 fucking beats. He didn't fuck my mood up, nigger. You know what I'm saying? No, I'm more the type of, like, right now I definitely like getting in the studio cooking

from scratch. That way I don't know how, like, I know what mine the artist is in. I know the type of vibe they're in. I don't want to send no shit over it. And it's completely different from what the fuck you already been on. What they was expecting. You know what I'm saying? It's expecting of what they already been working on.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I don't want to fuck no vibe up, fuck up, no thought process or nothing. So I'd rather get in there straight from, and cook it up from scratch. Man, like I said, bro, you've been in there moving, you know what I'm saying, moving and grooving along the way, you feel me? And, you know, I just want to know how you feel, when you see other producers that came up with you, just, you know, it's a lot more lightshed on them. And, you know, they're just a little bit more successful, you feel me, right now than you. It's just like, how do you feel about that shit?

Because you've been right there since the gate, too. Yeah, I mean, honestly, I really don't be feeling no type of way. That's all, like, a mine thing, honestly. Yeah. The producers I came up with, like, if they're getting some light shit on them, I ain't tripping, like, do your shit. Like, I know where my position is. I know where I'm standing there.

I know my shit's still good, so I ain't about to let my thinking just be like, oh, man, why they're getting more famed than me? Why are they doing it? I don't care about none of that. Yeah, what was your first, YG placement. I'm a thug, part two. So mom, I'm a thud, nigga, dude, deal, a game.

Two. Shout out to my niggas, my niggas, man. Yeah. That's a real homie right there. And we're being a producer, and you got all these songs, nigga, because you got songs. Wait, I'm a matter of fact, you're going to be the first person I tell this to. That song, I'm a third part two, that beat was supposed to go to Slim 4. It was.

It was. Because before I met her with that nigga, I ran into Slim. He's like, like, blood, Pai Ruh, come on, blood, you keep telling him you gonna send me some beats, blood, you ain't send me no bids, what's up, blood, Pai Ruh, what's up, bud? You don't fuck with me in nothing?

I'm like, damn, all right, I got you. So I had that beat in the pack form already, ready, but must have called me and was like, hey, go pull up on YG. He up at such a studio. I'm like, all, cool. Pull it up on YG. Hey, blah, what's up?

Play, press, play with me, what you got? That beat come on. He was fucking with it already. Too! And that's tight that you said that about mustard, though. Like, hey, mustard called me. Hey, man, pull up, do the shit. Because a lot of motherfuckers be getting the wrong impression about my boy.

You know what I'm saying? Because, you know, that nigga don't be kicking it with every motherfucking body. So niggas are automatically assumed, like, oh, that nigger don't be helping niggas and doing this and doing that. You feel I'm being? Like, but he's been helping, right? Exactly. That's just motherfuckers speaking on the outside looking in.

Like, once they actually get cool with the nigger, actually. start working with them they're gonna get a whole different point of view bro yeah i mean because them niggas it's cool i went well they're not cool right now you know what i'm saying so whatever you look look look look that shit is crazy look whatever they got going on we're gonna let them handle that like brothers you feel but when you see brothers get into it you feel me and you sitting there and you're in the middle and you know you love both of these niggas it's just like fuck like how you know what i'm saying how do you this way how did it's way how to you this way how to How do you make you feel?

Let me put it to you this way. If you see two of your homies getting into it, they beefing and fighting and shit, what you're going to do? You're going to let them handle that, or you're going to step in the middle? It's 50-50, because sometimes it's just like, sometimes I know both of you niggas is arrogant or, you know what I'm saying, or y'all stubborn. And sometimes maybe your homie need to step in one time,

like, but y'all need to talk. What the fuck are you doing? You know what I feel that, but I just feel like with them too, it's just like I'm just going to. You just got to let them handle that. Whatever they got going on, that's just between that. Because it's just in too deep, huh? It's really into deep, pause.

Yeah. You, that's crazy. No, but yeah, we just got to let them handle that, man. Like, whatever they're going through, it's probably not even all that deep. But the whole, all the fans and shit, everybody that got a pen on it, they make it that much more, like,

that much more of a problem. Yeah. And it's like, it ain't even over nothing. It ain't even that. that crazy. Yeah. We'll never know. So just let them handle that shit.

As far as the hip hop sound, though, you know what I'm saying? Like, evolving. Like, you one of the artists, I mean, one of the producers that's, you're really like that nigga that's out here doing it too behind the scenes. The name, it's not as far as, like, you know, worldwide yet. But you are one of the niggas, the go-to niggas. but motherfuckers always saying the sound hasn't evolved. You feel me?

Yeah, I've been hearing that, and I kind of feel the same way, too. But, you know, as much as I love our sound, we do got at least switch it up. Like, we definitely got to switch it up. I don't want to give out too much game, but, you know, producers out there, they know how we can switch the shit up.

We know we can still keep it West Coast, but also. Because what have you been doing? You know what I'm saying? To be versatile out here as far as with your beats and shit. I mean, as far as my beats, it's like, I'll go to, like, sonically, like, different sounds to use versus the same old typical pianos and all that shit. Like, look for some more ambient area or something or go to a whole new different genre and work on something in that lane, you know? Because the only West Coast artists fuck with you? Like, do other, you know what I'm saying?

Artists fuck with you from other states or just these niggins around here? Yeah, no, I had some from other states folk with me too, but, you know, it's just the West Coast shit. That's like the bread and butter. But that's what's bringing in the money and all that shit. So you'd rather just stay at this motherfucker and say fuck it. No, no. I'd say I'd rather just stay here. I'm a little bit.

I'm versatile. Nigger got all types of shit, man. Yeah. Like, man, niggas is going to start playing with me. What artists would you want to work with right now? See, he's going to put me on a spot like that. I mean, whoever want to fuck would be, fool. Nah, fuck all of that, nigga.

Who would you want to fuck with? Who would you want to fuck with? We got to put it out there. No filter to messiest podcast in America. Put it out there. Now, I'm putting it on there, fool. It's like, hey, whoever fuck with me, I'm going to fuck with them. I can't give you no straight list.

Like, oh, I want to fuck with this. No, you can't give me a straight list. Nah, I can't. Okay, well, let me ask you this then. Who's your favorite artist? I don't have a favorite artist. You don't have a favorite artist. Okay, well, let me ask you this, damn.

Who you're banging in your car then? He'll, he'll be it. Who you listening to in the whip? I mean, of course, I'm bringing the homies. You know, jizzle, mustard, R.J. You really? Mustard ain't. motherfucking rapper.

Hey, I'm banging his beats. It don't matter, then you. So anything he's doing, you're banging it. I'm going to listen to it. So what beats have he made? What artist is on his beats? Oh, wow. Okay, you want to get everybody.

Diggie. Come on, man. He tried to give you to get a name. You know what I'm saying? We get to get you out there versatile, get my niggas out there. Because, you know what I'm saying? Any artists from the South want to fuck with the nigga, I'll fuck with it. Any artist from New York, I'll get on the drill shit.

Anybody that want to fuck with me. You got some drill shit going crazy? Crazy? Some drill shit going crazy. Yeah, I mean, I can see niggas fucking with you, man. Go holl that money back, man. Matter of fact, just go hollat your Goddy the whole little everything. They'll fuck with you over there. Let me get Glorilla on some shit, man. Fuck it. I need a female on my beat. Oh, yeah. I mean, I mean, she did, yeah, she's been doing

her thing. I fuck with her too. On God and heaven, I fuck with her too. City Girls, too. I fuck with them too. Oh, Lotto, I fuck with her too, man. Lato God. No, the women doing that thing, man. That's what I'm saying. Like, give me anybody. Anybody that want to fuck with me that reach out, I'm going to reach back out. Man, what's your biggest song to date that you've produced?

Shit, I'm going to have to say toxic. I might have to say toxic for sure. You've done anything with Tiger? Not solo, but he got, he hopped on one with Waji and Mazzi on their community service album called Toot It Up. And you did that. Mm-hmm. that's right

you ever try to send Cub beats yeah but you know every artist worked different they already got their own select a few they work with you know I can't I can't knock that

I mean do you send it through email or what I mean no I never really sent them any bees I never had a contact on them you never really had to yeah see you know what I'm saying when I was over there I mean I would ask you

but when I was over there niggas got to go over there you know what I'm saying and do their thing Like, I don't know how niggas get the contact with my nigga down. I don't know, but. No, no.

Yeah, because he is one of the biggest thinkers over here, though. You feel me? He is one of the niggas that's, like, not regional at all. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, I'm like, I'm not biased or anything. Like, whoever reach out, whoever gave you their email, I will send some shit over it. Or if they want to link up at the studio, I'm going to fuck with him.

So, you know what I'm saying? West Coast being in bread and butter, and then you don't feel like that's holding you back when you getting, giving these niggins, beats even though you probably like you know they are going viral they're doing a thing but it don't kind of you don't feel like it kind of hold you back just a little bit because these niggas right now on the west coast like it is crazy but i think they take taking it to another like another level you feel me it's like uh they take it with the chicago rap they saying fuck

this and fuck that fucking gangs we smoking on woozy we yeah we smoking and we killing this nigger mama this and that another you know what I'm saying it's on your beat you You feel like, do you feel like that's holding you back? Will it will? Will it hold you back? You're talking about, like, as far as just the whole, that whole type of rap, like, in a way because it's like, I mean, it's like 50-50, like, because as much as the fans love hearing that type of shit, then that's the thing you know, they fuck around and be dead or something.

The artists end up dead or something, they end up shot dead. And it's like, oh, what happened? Oh, he was so young. and it's like all the RPs come out now. And it's like, it's like a handle life for sure to be holding you back in the way. What's the craziest studio session you ever been in on the West Coast, man, with these niggas?

Oh, man. Craziest. Man, so I had a session with Paulin one day. I forgot what mixtape this was. I got something with him like a few years back. I was working with him. Then DJ Quick popped in. So quit coming in

He got he brings his people with him You know, vibing You know, he's showing me Small little shit and all that He gets the drinking and shit So He started telling Tupac stories I forgot exactly what the story was

But it was hilarious So I'm laughing Like, you know when you laugh and you say Like this nigga crazy This nigga fool Wrong thing to say So you This thing is

This thing is a fool Yeah. This nigga. Ooh, are you crazy? Like, not talking about him, but just, you know. Yeah. Why, when I said that, that nigger, like, oh, yeah, you know. So a lot of people are like saying, like, oh, man, you're crazy or you're fool and all that.

You know, it's all it seems like, it's the dark ones that's all I just, I'm like, did? I'm like, I'm like, he got at you like that. I'm like, hold on. Like, it flew past. I'm like, I'm like, oh, it was all right. It's all right, true, man. But then he started talking about like the shit I had on. And he pointed him like, he put him like, he.

like look at this guy he did i'm like we gotta get out quick what i'm like what matter of fact you know what we ain't got to get up but you gotta have jokes though you better did you joke back though bro i was about to light his ass up but i had so much i got so much respect for quick like he's one of my case so you let cut shoot on you he only said he only got one joke off he got two niggie called your ass black niggins did he nah because he's the niggins he like hold on what niggie got all he got one He got one off, that dark one, because nobody knew who he was talking about, because I wasn't the dark dick in there, so.

He wasn't the darkest dick in there. Yeah, I wasn't the only dark one in there, so you feel me? But you knew? I had, like, right when he started, like when he pointed that beat, and I'm like, oh, he's talking about me. So I'm about to light his ass up, but probably, like, no, no, no, no, you got to chill, boy, you got chill. This is the homie. This is the homie, he's straight. He's good, man.

And he was like, all right, man, my bad. I apologize. I've just been drinking a lot. My bad. He had his son with him. His son came up to me a little bit after. He was like, man, my battle pop, my dad, man, he'd be doing too much when you start to drinking. And I'm like, it's all good, bro.

It's cool. Oh, blood won to fight. This nigga has to get out with this nigga, DJ quick, nigga. You hilarious, nigga. What? No, I didn't, I didn't. No, it wasn't like I wanted to fight, bro. It was just like, I had so much respectful, bro.

So I was just about to, like, just flame his ass up. Just about to start roasting them. But problem just stepped in. It was like, no, no, no. Hey, man, like, relax. He wasn't talking like that. I'm like, this nigga's trippy. Man, do L.A. politics

fuck up some of your money. You know what I'm saying? Because I know L.A. politics is leading to producers too. And niggas don't want to fuck with that nigga because he's from here. And niggas don't want to fuck with that nigga because he from here. No, politics ain't, don't fuck my shit up.

Because, I mean, it only fuck my shit up about actually banging anthes. I'm only born and raised there. I didn't get put on over there, but I still got respect, you feel like. But I'm not out here to be what side that's part, woo, woo, fuck, woo, I'm not doing none of that.

So, niggas ain't, like, I'm just a producer. I'm just in the back room. I'm just bringing the beats. So they're not tripping on none of that. Nobody don't be tripping on me about that. I don't even be thinking about that shit. I mean, because let's just say,

you know, are you doing a beat for this nigga over here? but he beefing with this nigga over here but you gotta go to his studio you know what I'm saying I gotta go to his studio tomorrow do you make that decision whether or not you fucking with the other artists or not honestly shit

to be real I'm not even fucking with no local artists unless the bag right like I mean unless it makes sense like I just been in this shit too long to where the local motherfuggers be playing around with me like

not respecting the hustle so all that dealing with a nigga of neighborhood didn't go fuck with the nigger from Englewood and it's like just because they got beef with each other and I'm not going to work with neither one of them because neither one of them offering no money.

And you know what Ron Ron and Jugg came up here and they was talking about that same shit and I was like you do got to start being a little bit business mind and you got to hurry up you got to not hurry up but you definitely got to start putting that paperwork in you know what I'm saying in perspective

like nigga hey look I got this shit is going niggas got to start respecting in it, you know what a lot of artists don't do that shit, you feel me, like, when did you come to the, you know what I'm saying, come to that point in your career where you was like, you know what, like, hey, uh, jizzled, nigga, I charge a, no, you know, it's so funny. Like, when it comes to pain, I never had that issue from Wajee.

Never had the issue from Mr. Never had the issue from RZA, none of that. Never had that issue. It was just, the niggas that was just, the niggas that was just, super, super independent, like out the mud type shit, like, getting it off the muscle. And, like, they'll come up to me like,

yo, I got this much. It ain't your exact price, but I got this because you work with me. I'm like, oh, I bet I'll work with you, but they'll take forever to pay. Like, they'll fuck around and say, like, oh, I'm going to pay you Tuesday, pay you Wednesday. Crickets. On the ground, posted on the stories,

all types of shit. I'm like... Would that make you start beefing with a nigga, though? No, no. I don't know. I don't know. I ain't to start beefing over no bread, not over, not over no shit like that, because it's like, you reached out to me. And I took the time out to start to fuck with you. So now that you bush and, like, right when I signed with mustard, the last time that shit happened to me, I just said, fuck all that.

How long you were assigned a mustard? Oh, cool couple of years. How did that go? It was solid. It was always great. It was amazing. Like, as far as, like, bee making and placements and shit like that. Yeah, bleaking placements.

Like, bro, always was, uh, it was, uh, it was solid. He always gave me opportunities, like, off the rip. Like, since the first day I met him, like, he got me out the anthems, had an Uber black pull up to the anthems, picked me up, wanted me to come to the studio, whipped us some shit with him, side by side. Like, ever since then, we've just been cool. Like, what made you get out the deal? You feel like he was bigger than?

Or got, not bigger than him, but, you know what I'm saying? You were bigger than you could do it on? No, no, I'm saying, I felt like I got bigger than it. It was just like. Just on some grown-man shit. I just wanted to just spread my wings and just do my own shit. Just branch out. Like, you know, like, nigger got to have a bigger name than just being mustis producer, right?

You know? Although it's no bad blood. I didn't know ill-will or nothing. I was just with the nigga last night. Oh, okay. He got you a bag, though? What? For sure.

How much? Come on, man. I'm trying to know. My nigga got bread. How much that nigga got you? Hey, you what I'm saying? Yeah. I'm sorry.

All I'm going to say is he got me right. Yeah. You ever had any producer beef? Because producers be beefing, too. I ain't going to lie, man. I never had no producer beef, but I mean, shit. It has been a few that probably felt a way towards beef. I never really paid attention to it.

Why would they feel that way towards you, though? I have no idea. So you over here hogging the shit? I ain't hogging, nothing. You over there hogging this shit? I ain't hogging. You know why you in the studio with RJ? You over here with mustard?

You feel me? These niggas felt like you was hogging all the artists or what? Nah, hell no. That's what shit. I mean, hey, why did you reach out to me to work with me? I mean, hey, if he reached out to you, then you're good. I mean, I can't know shit. I mean, yeah.

That ain't that's out my husband for me. That's beyond me, man. I'm not hogging nothing. I'll gladly help somebody else out. But just how motherfuckers be moving, you know, certain people will be moving. little funny so. As far as being a producer, like,

like, do you have to go get your publishing right? You feel me? And get those big checks. Like, you've seen all of

big checks already? You feel me? Like, you definitely got to get, like, the publisher right. It's, man, if I'm explaining the publishing,

we'll be here for a whole other hour probably or something, but it's, he's got to make sure you just, I can't really say all that. Why,

though? Because what if I made a beat? You feel me? And I want to go out, just like, Any one of these niggas out here right now, they're looking at this shit. They made a beat.

They give it to the artist. The artists get popping. You know what I'm saying? The artist paid for the beat, but you still get publishing off the record, but I don't know how to do that. That's when you get you a team, you get you a manager, you get you an entertainment lawyer. You make sure you have people like those type of people to help you get your business right. Make sure you get yourself a good publishing deal. or make sure you get you a good situation

off the song you get in place. Make sure you're getting your royalties on the back end. Make sure everything get straight. When you give a motherfucker a beat, though, and then they use it, like, how do you hit him or who emails him after that? Like, hey, bro, you know it's fun to go down. Like, you owe me that.

No, nine times out of ten, I already know the person I'm giving the beat to. Yeah. Like, it ain't like I just got my beats on line. and then they could just snatch this shit. Like, I got to personally send it out to you. Hey, take me back to the anthems. You say you never got put on.

Let's go, man. Come on down to the 110 South. Let's go off for Elsa Gondo. Yeah, come on. You know what I'm saying? Because it gets crazy, you know, and I'm still trying to worry. Watch out for the boys. They'd be greedy over there.

I'm still trying to figure out why my nigger went and ate at that motherfucking Roscoes. I'm still trying to figure that out. You know what I'm saying? You're a little bit more down the 110, but. Did you ever try to do it? Did you? My pops hood over there. Exactly.

So, I mean, hey, first of all, peace and blessings to P&B Rock's family, my condolences and all that. I can't, I don't know. I don't know. That's not it. What you mean, that's not it? Dad Rosco's. Oh, of course it's not it, but I mean,

what, I mean, I'm playing devil's advocate, you think of Rosco's, you're already going to think about what, the one in Hollywood? Pico, you feel me. Yeah. Nobody going to think about that one over there, so probably wanted to be low-key. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, the nigga ain't from out here.

Maybe, I don't know. I'm just like, you know, everything off that one-tenth is crazy. Do you exit in Manchester? That's wild. We didn't even not even going to get on my burger. I don't want to exit Manchester and go east. That's out. That shit is crazy over there.

You feel me? I mean, me. I'm not even going to lie to you. I'm not even a nigga that to sit and eat anywhere. I'm getting that shit to go or deliver. Out here. We got to have niggas. There got to be rules in place for this shit.

You know what I'm feeling? At the studio, how to run and go grab the food. But, you know what I'm saying? Let me know how you grew up in the anthems. And why you didn't take that route again put on? Because a lot of people don't dodge that. I wouldn't even say bullet, but a lot of people don't dodge that shit, you know, and they do start end up gang banging.

Everybody don't take the same route gang banging, but you do. like you know what i'm gonna get put on i'm gonna do this and shit like that and how did you dodge that shit like i can't do that shit growing up in the athus it was quite an experience i might say it's you know it's it was a journey for sure but i don't know like i feel like be watching all the classic la gangbanger movies menace of society boys in the hood colors gang tapes like none of them just have a happy ending somebody's dead or in jail And it's like You see all the little funeral scenes

And shit You see like My mom's crying and shit And it's like these niggas is young Like 14 15 So it's like me I'm like bro I'm not trying to just

Get my life away To something that's not A good reward in the end Like I'm gonna show you to be dead I'm going to be in jail for a long As time like And then once you're in jail

Who gonna be there for you? Yeah it's over with It's over with So I'm cool. Then it's like, you got to be outside 24-7. I'm not 24-7, but shit, niggas. Game bangers don't got no off days. Like, niggas.

But your ass went over there and hung with them. You fuck with them. I hung with them. Nick, I lived in there. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So it's like... That apartment building, that's like the headquarters. If you were from Athens, you've got to go over there.

You got to go in there. I mean, you could be in there. You could be on... It'll be up the blocks over, under 29. They got different blocks and shit, but anybody that's from there going... pass by the APs. So with you, like, you know what? I'm a duel, but I ain't doing it all the way.

I ain't getting in the car. No, hell no. It was just like, I'm not going nowhere. No, I'm just cool. Like, I'm straight. I'm not, I'm good. I'm not about to be, I'm lazy. I'm not about to be gang banging out of it.

I'm not about to be front line in nowhere. I'm going to be sitting down and something. And then I'm going to be slipping. Then pop, pop, pop, pop. No, I'm, I'm cool. Yeah, that shit is crazy out here in Los Angeles. Yeah, so niggas been, like, growing up, You know, niggas with shows, I was like, what's up,

we're gonna come home, you gonna get put on. I'm cool, bro. I'm straight. I'm good. Man, you want to leave, and too, you want to leave all that shit. You want to leave it behind. You're doing your thing. You're producing.

You know what I'm saying? And then this shit follow you. I mean, then turns out, now that I'm producing, it's like I got a whole new found respect from everybody over there. Yeah. And how did that go? Because I know, niggas, we want to come to the studio. I want to fuck with it.

You know what I'm saying? They want to come to you with the club. Honestly. See, it ain't even like, it ain't even too crazy or nothing. Like, I get, you know, a lot of people show respect. They tell me congrats and all that. You know, they know I'm in the studio, but they don't never be like, man, we're going to let me come to the studio with you.

I don't never really get that a lot. But it's crazy. They be handed to shit. The feedback is, shit, it's so hard to me. What music you grew up listening to? Man, all West Coast shit. I ain't going to lie. I was, I was eighth-grade.

into banging on wax I'm listening to death ruck you know what I'm saying for sure that shit was crazy nigga I ain't go lot

I thought the cover himself is wild look I was listening to the first banging on wax I felt like digger

felt like the yeah the blood slaughtered the cribs there'll be no disrespect but the second

one the cribs came back I ain't go no B-Brazy is first one for sure yeah

B Brazier is a legend when I seen this nigga. I'm like the blood niggas look sick. These niggas got swag. Look at this nigga, bruh. That nigga could have said anything,

nigga. Oh God. And heaven. Like, the bloods, the, nigga, the cover, the video, all that, nigga. But I was, um... Was killing shit. But I was, um, listening to like, you know,

all West Coast shit. Anything West Coast from the Bay to down here, like, everything. and my pops, death row shit, ice cube shit, like all types of shit. Why niggas don't be put my nigga Ice Cube? Can you hear me? Yeah. Because I can't hear myself.

Can you hear me? Mike check. All right, cool. Why niggas don't be putting this nigga, um, this nigga ice cube on their top five, nigger? Because that nigger is a nigger, bruh, out here, bro. I don't know west coast. Niggas be fucking forgetting about that nigger.

he's done, nigga for this shit, bro. Excuse me, that is a good question. Honestly, I think it's because, like,

I don't know, probably because, like, just how they felt like his music was in a way because, like, he did the NWA.

Then when he, like, did his first album, he went, like, to the East Coast and, like, got some New York beat sounding.

Exactly. And then he, like, slowly came back this way. I mean, he's still in certain people talk far. I mean,

not that many. I feel you, but. I'd be having to bring a cub, niggas be like, oh, yeah, yeah, oh. And niggas be leaving the Bay out, you feel me? Who's your favorite Bay artist? Man, I ain't a lot of shit. It might sound cliche, but I got it there and they give it to you 40.

Yeah, I mean, you better name some artists because they don't, you know, they don't like the producers down here. They said y'all stole a sound. That's funny. I don't understand how niggas said we stole their sound. It's still all California. You don't hear You don't hear Atlanta talking about

No, because the Bay in general Don't get as much love as Los Angeles As soon as you say, nigga, the West Coast Or you say California, niggas say L.A. They don't say the Bay in Oakland. It's kind of like they be getting left out. Kind of like the Ice Cube thing I was talking about. They always getting left out the equation.

So as soon as like L.A. doing it, niggas be like, oh, L.A. made this up or L.A. created that shit. So they be holding on to everything they do. I don't know, man. I mean shit. I feel you. I do be hearing that a lot, but I mean shit.

That's just my personal opinion. Like, it's all still California. We're still all on the West Coast. So, of course, we all going to still have that 100 BPM, that uptempo, high energy, something and shit. Like, it's all going to be the same shit. Like, everybody come to one, maybe. We all still going to be as one. Yeah, let's just do it together.

Do Bay artists be hitting you up? Yeah, I had a few. I fucked the right with Mazzi a few times and shit. As far as when you started, when you got into music, how did mom take this shit did? Because I know motherfuckers be like, you know, go to school and shit like that. Mom's, okay, moms, naturally she like music, but she don't damn it.

They don't get two shits about getting into the music business. Like when I first told her, she didn't give a damn. Because remember I told you, I wanted to be a DJ at first. So when I told both my mom's, and pop, they both are like, DJ, the fuck. What you want to be a fucking DJ for? Hell, no, you're doing that shit. And I'm looking at pop, like, damn,

nigga you with the music shit, what you mean? Nick, it's money in this shit. Yeah, so I'm like, damn, all right. But, yeah, once I got their reaction off there, my mom always was like, you got to find a plan B, what if the music don't work. And I'm like, oh, my God. So I just started, that's when I started

really getting to producing, because then that's when I realized producers get, 50% of the song. So I'm like, oh, what? That's bread. Who told you that? Pops? No, I learned that on my own.

Oh, you just Googled that shit. Yeah, I'm a geek at heart. Okay, I ain't gonna lie. I'm a geek with swag. So I, computer heavy. On there. Once I learned about what producing was, I'm like, oh, they do the beat. Okay, oh, yeah.

Went more and more intuitive. It's finding out small shit about it. Yeah, because when I found that out, too, like 50% of the beat, And then the writer, you got the producer, you got the writer. I'm like, so the rap nigga don't make no money. You know what I'm saying? Basically, God damn.

He told, he said that statement. He said, why you want to be a DJ? Why not be a producer? They make more money than the artist anyway. That's crazy. So that's what made me look into it. I'm like, oh, pop, sorry, all I bet. So got it to the producer's shit, started making my little bullshit,

whack-ass beats or whatever. Mom's still oblivious to it. She's not giving the fuck. She's whatever, boy, get the fuck out of my face. Pop, I told him here and there, he's like, all right, whatever. Showed him a beat. He's like, oh, shit, are you really making beats? All right, cool.

But I never said nothing else to them about the beats. I always kept coming to me with the, what if this don't work? You need to do the music? I'm like, listen, this music don't work. That's on me. Fuck it. I'm not going to blame nobody but myself. Is Pop Sprout?

For sure. I'm able to fly. first time he, like, when I didn't, like, when I wasn't telling them about what I was doing with my shit, he heard a song I produced from somebody else. They came up to him, they're like, hey, L.V., you're making beats? He's like, oh, I ain't making no fucking beats. What you're talking about? He said, man, it's a shit.

Somebody making beats with their name Larry or something. Like, Larry making all the beats or something. He called me like, hey, you did this song with you? I'm like, yeah, that's me. Yeah, nigga, that's my son. That's my son, dick, old crap, nigga. All right, do your shit, son. Yeah.

And then slowly over the years, certain people kept coming up to him. Like, man, Larry on the beat is your son? That's crazy, that's your son. So now he's like, all right, nigger, yeah, yeah, he, for sure, see the whole vision and all that now. So pop's in music. He's singing, he doing this thing. He's got the song, Coolio.

You know what I'm saying? He's still taking you back to the set because he is from, he's from A-7, right? For sure. My cousin from A-7, so I'll be pulling up over there. if my cousin outside, well, he's staying in Vegas now. But if he out there, you know, I'll pull up on him after at Roskos, too. Niggas be outside and shit.

Big stupid outside. Big stupid outside. I don't be over there for longer than, nigga, 20 minutes. Catch up with my cousin, like, you know, I ain't seen him, and smoked one. I don't mind to get up out of here. Oh, God.

But Pop's here. He still be meeting up over there, too. He'd really be up over there, so. He still really love the shit over there. Because my grandma's this shit's still over there. I mean, in the way he can say that, in the way he can say that. Because he actually, he also, like, my grandma, my grandma, he's, like, like, renovating it. So he, like, switching the whole shit.

It's getting cracking. Yeah. Again. You feel not having to get your ass over there. But I like that, though, that your pops was doing the thing, you know what I'm saying? He proud of son out here, nigga, like LBs out here. You feel me? Like, nigga get to, like, nigga, that's my motherfucking son.

you feel me like you made it out here doing that shit like that's something of like really be proud of especially in los angeles you feel me like and then coming from a music background you know what I'm saying dodging a whole bunch of shit like that yeah yeah that's that's something to be proud of though low-key man and I'll be I'd be having to preach this shit to motherfuckers now too and I'd be you know especially telling them about the gang band shit too and I'd be like hey that shit low-key weak you know what I mean you know it's so funny it's a little funny it's like, it's like they just got to have a mind of their own. They just got

to just know this shit because I was young and I didn't have nobody tell me like the gay man your shit was weird. I'm just looking at shit like from watching the movies to actually seen it in person in a way in a sense like, oh yeah, this shit ain't it. Who was the biggest bag? You know what I'm saying?

What biggest bag? Like, what was the biggest bag you got by yourself or with mustard? With mustard for sure. For sure, yeah. I didn't got some big bags by myself. too, but must be for sure helped me get that, that luggage. That thing. The thing. When you got it, what did you buy?

Man, when I got it, what did I know? He licked at that motherfucker like, damn! At first I had to sit down first, because my heart was racing, I'm like, my nigger. It's a thing. From making all these, them, from giving all these beasts away for free, getting a little bit of money to getting wooly woo thousand and all that. thousand and all that, I'm like, god damn. I got to chill out.

So after I calmed down, I like, you know, I gave some of my and shit, you know, then I just, you know, paying some bills and all that. Did you go get a whip? Where the jury at? For sure, I got a whip. Yeah, for sure. What kind of whip you got?

I had to look at a little BMW and see. You ain't cashed out? For sure. My nigga, we ain't cashed out. You feel me? How you feel about producers right now kind of got to be like artists. They got to be in the videos.

You feel me? They got to buy jury. They got a, you know what I'm saying? They got a swag out. Matter of fact, Buster is probably the most swaggiest thing on the West Coast right now. He don't even fucking rap.

I'm going to just give him to the, give him that shit. You feel me? That's a fact. You definitely got to put a little extra on it now being a producer. You feel me? I feel like, again,

it's like it all depends on like the type of producer that's about to get that type of fame. Like, you know, As a producer, we're all human beings first. So it's all about what type of person they are. So if they feel like they want to get all the big-ass chains and shit, be iced out and, you know, all that.

That's cool. Be flying flashy, for show. Be all in the videos. That's cool, too. Like, you got to at least show your face if you did the beat. You have to, though. Nowadays, you have to. You have to.

Look at DJ Calut. Morrell still doing it. No. Must her still. You know what I'm saying? 808. Niggas is out here. Icey.

The niggas is turning into rappers. You ever going to rap? No. Why not? Nah, I know how to play my role, man. I lead that to the artist. You feel like some artists want the producer to be low-key, and then that way you can kind of get yours off?

Because some niggas do be intimidated. Well, as far as like what? Because if you're a producer and you got all that shit going on, you're coming in a studio, I style doing all this shit, big whip, you know what I mean? You coming in this motherfucker, then the artist just, looking at you barely. Nigger barely got some shit like,

they might intimidate a nigga, yeah. What's what going on? Yeah, I feel yeah. I mean, yeah, it might intimidate, yeah. It might intimidate the artist, but I mean, shit. I don't know, shit.

It's all on them, shit. That's not your whole shit. That ain't my shit. I don't know. I mean, did you really know all that as cool, but I feel like that bring a little bit more unwanted attention, like all that extra shit,

like motherfuckersers. just staring at you just for no reason like you're a low-key nigga yeah yeah you a low-key nigga like really like alpha show my face in the video that's cool like if I do get some more jewelry or something you know I might throw it on just for the video but niggas like wearing that shit just to go to the stove and shit and that should be wild but you I'm gonna say you do got to have your face out here and I'm saying that to say that's why we're doing that I feel like that's why we doing this right now yeah man they ain't seen my black ass yet so yeah yeah these niggas got to see you, they gotta know what's going on,

they gotta put a face to the music, you feel what I'm gonna. Like, I know you've been in the studio of YG, well, I know YG, mustard. These are the niggas I know. This is the shit I've been around and how I know you, you feel me? But tell the people, you feel me, like, like, you just give them, you don't have to give them all of them, but hit them over the head with shit you've done.
