This album is inspired by AZ, with the luxuriousness of Serf's lush production instantly transporting me to that state of mind.
Serf posted that he was prepping a new beat tape, so I reached out to let him know that if he ever wanted a random verse/track on it, I'd be happy to drop something. He then told me that I was someone he wanted to work with, but I was so busy he figured he'd wait a while. The project was originally going to be just a handful of tracks, but then expanded to 11, with me calling on dope friends to contribute (JON?DOE, Jeff Spec and G Fam Black with verses, DJ Navin Johnson with cuts) and then sending it to my man Tali Rodriguez, the genius behind so much of what I do.
The title came about because executive producer JS Rivera, who some may know as Royalty OGTCH's son, had a little trouble saying my rap name. What better way to celebrate my first executive produced album than to have it unknowingly overseen/titled by a kid? Kids rule. I'm gonna send his dad a tape because being an executive producer is a big deal.
