-Says Nas gives stories and background info in the studio on why he writes certain bars. Says Nas gave him a “History lesson” on the history between Michael and Quincy Jones.


-Says that other MC’s have hired him to mix based strictly on how Speechless sounds.

-Says he met Hit Boy at Chalice Studios. He was a runner and took Hit’s order for Chick-Fil-A. Says he took it upon himself to make it the “fastest chick fil a run of all time” and it impressed Hit’s manager so he told him he was an engineer and he gave the manager his number and a year later Hit Boy called him.

-Says EPMD 2 was the hardest song to mix because Em refused to send in his raw vocals.

-Also said Full Circle was hard because it was 4 different artists recording in different places. Says Foxy’s was particularly difficult


-Says the difference between mixing the KD series and Magic series is that the KD series is more cinematic and cleaner and with Magic Nas and Hit want to keep the songs more dirty and grimy.
