I had into the studio earlier before everybody got there and said, “Yo, pull up that beat. Me and YG were working on some other songs for Mustard’s album. … I think Mustard oversold the beat to me so much. It was a different vibe because I didn’t like the beat of “Go Loko” at first. How did it compare to recording “Go Loko” with YG? That’s what makes the album legendary - taking people out of their element and bringing them into your world, but still letting them be themselves. To cross those two worlds and then bring him into my world, for him to still rap his verse - he rapped on it, he didn’t sing on it, which he usually does. … He’s like the president right now of Latin culture. Shout out to Balvin, I’ve been a fan of his for a minute. I got the perfect idea for the video.” Because Chris was on it first, then I sent it to Balvin and he knocked it out right away. I wanna be in the clubs.” I’m like “alright well, we could shoot this video. He was, like, “Nah, I wanna be on the party vibe. I actually sent them another song that was more of a Spanish vibe, but he liked that one. That was the first collab me and Balvin did. Talk about linking with J Balvin & Chris Brown on “Haute.” Everything has a feeling and it means something. Well freestyle like not write it down, record it as I go. I couldn’t tell you lyric for lyric unless I was listening to the song. It’s crazy, I don’t write down anything so I make it up as I go. What lyric on “Legendary” are you most proud of? The whole ting is just a good body of work.

He rapped to the same beat three times on “Carter II”: the intro, the middle of the album, and the outro. Yes because It was his breaking point of Wayne becoming who he is. Is “Carter II” your favorite Wayne album? Then I did the Phantom, kind of as a tribute to Wayne. I kept it West Coast with the girls on there. It’s your whole persona.ĭefinitely “Carter II” and also an old Ice T cover. Being in the game over 10 years now - to still be consistent, still keep giving people new vibes, still keep dropping hits, that’s everything. Being over-passionate and withstanding the test of time.
