A$AP/IMNOTATOY/KKK/BALLERS EVE

- When you were younger did you always want to Dj?

No, In HS I dabbled in production which led to dabbling in DJing in the future, I guess.When I was younger saw myself more so on the business side (A&R, Management etc.) solely.


Were do you originally resign from?
Atlanta, GA

- Can you explain to the people what IMNOTATOY is?

IMNOTATOY is …
 a collective of thoughts as far as the world wide web goes and harmful fun before Tumblr was even around.

Outside of the internet it's ALOT more than a site, it's a brand and a way of thinking.
 
- How were you introduced to A$AP?

Yams, I've know him and some of them for YEARS…and we've always been rooted through music despite living in different regions. (He is also one of the OG team members of Imnotatoy ha) 

- Why did you start DJing?
Actually from friends just asking me, because certain people respected my ear for music and my obsession with wanting to find new shit from all over.  Also wanting to learn how to chop and screw shit when I was younger. When I was settled up in NY I linked with this Radio Show at EVR Called Ballers Eve, me being there every week and being part of the crew really made a difference.

- What type of artist did you listen to growing up?
I was raised by my GrandMa so we listened to a lot of Soul, R&b, Gospel, also Local South shit. Then a close friend of my moms put me on to 2pac (Dear Mama) when I was in Elementary but then my moms friend passed away but that opened the door to other forms of rap music outside of Atlanta. I went to a diverse school so I went through every phase Musically…The Metal, Punk, Rock stage a lot in middle school, ALOT of East Coast Rap and "Underground" hip hop in High school.

- Who are your favorite artists?
Tupac, Ghostface, Bad brains, James Brown, Scarface, K- os, Eminem, Project Pat, Dungeon Family so many mutha fuckas

Don't care, I like random shit, I like Textiles/Prints shit like that

Apple Pies and Onion Rings (if i'm outside the States)

Ten Underrated Nate Dogg Choruses

1. The Streets Featured Artist | WC Album | Ghetto Heisman Year 2002 Nate Dogg, like a lot of songs he sings on, makes the song. The beat from Scott Storch, sounds like a 2001 leftover and creates WC's biggest hit as a solo artist. Not too many outside of LA will remember this one. 2. Look At My Eyes Featured Artist | Obie Trice Album | Cheers Year 2003 Cheers is the most underrated Hip-Hop albums of all time. Slept on as it came out the same year on the same label 50 Cent's Get Rich Or Die Tryin'. Cheers is the best album to come out of the Shady-Aftermath factory not named 50 Cent or Eminem, and that includes all members of G-Unit and D12. Look At My Eyes, produced by Dr. Dre at the tale-end of Dr. Dre producing like Dr. Dre, is one of the last Nate Dogg/Dr. Dre combos we will ever see, and just as always, it doesn't miss. 3. I Don't Like To Dream About Getting Paid Featured Artist | Dogg Pound Album | Tha Dogg Food Year 1995 Early Nate ...

My family and I have visited the Trap Music Museum many times because my wife is from Atlanta.  We reside in Los Angeles, CA and I'm a local business owner in the city. This past weekend, my wife, my kids, and I decided to go to Atlanta to visit my wife's family.  Once we got down there we decided to go to the Trap Music Museum because that's one of our favorite museums to visit when we’re in town so of course we had to go check it out for ourselves.  My wife and I are big fans of TI. When we went to the museum, the first thing you saw was a 2Chainz installation of his pink trap house. When you go further into the museum they give you a brief history of how Trap Music was created and the symbolism behind it.  You also get to see the different awards TI has one over his rap career. While viewing the museum I saw a poster that illustrated that TI was opening up a permanent museum for the Lil Trap House that was originally a pop-up. We got a chance to vi...
