It should've came out.
And they they had another song as you know the lead single.
I was like man "Savage."
I think "Savage" is the record.
I mean that's the record.
I was like yo that is the one.
Girl on TikTok made a dance to it.
Megan posted it and you know here we are.
For the first time like I met Megs honestly, Instagram.
We had been talking since like 2018 to get into the studio.
We just never had time like she was staring to blow up.
I was already working already, so it was a time situation.
So first time I seen her honestly was last year in person.
I met her at a video shoot.
We did a song with Gucci called "Big Booty."
Meg likes to build right there with you.
She likes for you to sit right there and make that record.
She takes that pen out and she just go.
I was actually just kinda like surprised that like she
like writes for real.
And you know I had never seen that like,
yo you really write on the spot.
You not even like gonna come back nah you gonna do it now.
So it was one of organic situations just.
It just happened like that.
So we was actually in Miami.
It was one of them long nights.
Like we started maybe 6pm and we got done 9am
the next day.
Pretty much I started with the plugin called Diva.
I honestly don't know what led me to even use this plugin.
Because I rarely use it.
I was just feeling the vibe when I heard
sassy, moody, classy.
I really just played two keys and that was it.
I literally built a whole beat off of that sound.
So pretty much after that sound I kept Diva open,
and I said what else do you have for me.
It felt like it needs to be with the up sound.
So I said let me just do that and keep it moving.
The next sound was once again Diva.
I actually used the same exact sound that I just
showed y'all.
I did it at first originally just like that,
And I said yo this is corny and weird as hell,
but what if I put the half time on it.
That right there I said man this is a vibe.
You know one thing that I like to accent my tracks with
is a nice clean 808.
I don't like a lot of it.
But I like for it to hit when it does.
And this is how it sounds.
This is my sound of choice for most of my records
no matter if its pop, rap, rock.
I don't care.
I made most of my big records off of this same 808
right here.
When I'm make an 808 I like to also put a kick up under it
to give it an extra you know body.
I used trap love kit.
I made it myself.
Use it for most of my tracks.
Pretty much I used the same drums
for pretty much everything.
You know I don't think you need to bring too much
to the party.
Just the right drinks.
So I have a little accent thing.
What's next?
I'm still in that trap love kit okay.
That's pretty much like the same sound I just showed y'all.
But it has a different feel, different texture,
different frequency, a different mood to it.
I say that a lot.
You know if you accent some its gonna just bring it out
so much more.
Moving on.
One more time.
When that crash happens you know.
it's something dramatic about to happen.
It's you know its the next phase to the song you know.
I'm a old studio rat studio junkie.
I like old sounds.
So I went online and I bought some sounds off the Proteus.
This Proteus thing was made in the early 2000's.
My thoughts was if I go to some old school sounds
that were hit record back then.
Why can't I use some of them textures now?
And pretty much this is what it sound like.
Its cool to see a song go big like this organically.
Because the people honestly made this happen.
You know it wasn't me, it wasn't Meg, it wasn't anybody
on the team.
It literally was the people chose this song on this app
called Tiktok and it flooded over to the rest of the world.
Its a great feeling to be able to give artist,
especially female rappers, such big songs man.
Like we been here before you know what I mean.
So now to do it with Megan is its man.
I love seeing her happy like this you know.
Lets enjoy this but lets get another one.
I found out the remix was gonna come out a hour
before it dropped.
And literally I was just..."Queen Bey."
Man I was a little school girl.
I don't even care.
I was happy as fuck.
We never heard Beyonce really go like bar for bar.
And she sung, and she did harmonies, and backgrounds,
and ad-libs.
I said damn Beyonce you you are the queen.
Hell yeah.
I got a call one day.
They were like yeah Beyonce gonna do a remix on "Savage."
And I was like shut the fuck up.
I was like shut up like...
I recorded like a new verse and then maybe like the
next week I heard the song and I was like.
This is not Beyonce like...
It's dope producing for female rappers in general because it's such a male-dominated game.
Especially when it comes to hip-hop and rap.
So with me, I look at it as a challenge.
Like yo, okay. I'm gonna work with this female over here, and we're gonna make the biggest song in the world.
And we're gonna pass everybody.
It's not a lot of women who have been number 1 on the Hot 100.
And that's the goal that I wanna get for Megan.
That would really make my day to see her go number 1 as well.
I think I'll be the first producer ever though to have produced two rap females like,
If Megan goes number 1, I think that would be like some history type-vibes or something like that.
I don't think no other producer has done that for a female. I think I'll be like the only one.
