Is there a producer you worked with besides Dr. Dre that you really feel got the sound that you envisioned?
Definitely Q-Tip. And Pharrell [Williams]. Them two, as far as major producers that Ive worked with. Q-Tip because he got that sound of the early 90s that I love. Im just a fan of his work, period. The Renaissance album is probably one of my favorite albums. His whole abstract sound is kinda the vibe of where I was going as far as my production. Pharrell, as far as the melodic notes and the vibe. I played him a few records before I got in [with him] and hes like, Its already there. What you want to add onto it? Other than that, I kept everything real in-house and tight-knit with the people I started off with from my earliest mixtapes. Soundwave Willie B Everybody who know my music know that they a part of my actual sound as far as the mixing and vocal production
