“When my dad retired, he moved to Georgia, but I stayed in California. I was in San Francisco: that's where I first went from being a musician to making beats and producing. I was 18, 19. It started going pretty good for me out there in California, so I stayed in SF while my parents moved to Georgia.”

“If you listen to my early music, I didn't know how to mix. I barely knew how to record for real, and I didn't care.”

“To me, my studio is my trap house. That's where I trap out of; that's where I hustle. That's where I make my money.”

“I came across this guy named DJ Grumble and I just really liked his beats because they were different. I felt like they spoke to me.”

“The man does not beat your head because you got a Cadillac or because you got a Ford; he beats you because you're black!”

“When I came in the game, it was just me making beats in Inglewood at YG's house; it wasn't nobody to help me.”
