No it was specifically that Fam couldn't do it. He couldn't trust swank, steve or aj to make the run instead.

I thought you were having other guys do that now.
THE BOY
I am. Fam can't do this one.
NAOMI
If you're putting up the money you shouldn't be making the run.
THE BOY
I don't really trust anyone else to do it.

The ruckus from outside is indeed the cops
Tires SCREECH outside. Dude 2 stands up. There's a small crash outside. Yelling.
VOICE
FREEZE!
GUNSHOTS.
The Boy and Dude 2 look at each other.
Dude 1 kicks open the door. He starts firing.

*interesting point here* I think steve, aj and swank text bino that they got busted by the cops. hence why guy 1 immediately kicks in the door and shoots the cop when he hears freeze. he has bino's phone and intercepted the tip off

The last thing that makes me think its Fam: When the story starts, Fam shows up in a broken down Mazda. Then they use one of Bino's cars to go pick up the rest of the crew. Bino is trying to say that Fam doesn't live near/with everyone else.

So right before the shootout, the cop says
DUDE 2 (CONT'D)
I'm just gonna stay here with you for a minute. My guys are picking up those guys up the street.

But remember Fam CANNOT do the drop. So why would he be "up the street" with the rest of the crew?

My last last reason for why its fam. Bino plays Young Thugs' "Danny Glover when he gets in the whip. This is the hook + the beginning of the last verse

Okay cool, okay bool I love her
I'mma save her, yes, like Danny Glover
I'mma call my papi 'fore I fukked her mother
I paid them a molly, now they kiss each other
Every time I fukk I gotta hit me least like 2 bytches
Boy that dope get whipped, you need like new wrists
Foreign car outside that bytch got 2 digits
Money stand like 8 feet just like 2 midgets


I just want my gun and rub my money up in everybody's business
All these nikkas p*ssy nikkas, tellin' on they partner
Hope the p*ssy nikka get a bigger sentence
p*ssy nikka play, I'm comin' back with the K
And I'mma shoot that motherfukker 'til he livid

i read that as him saying he doesn't want to let fam do it. Not that he told him he couldn't. And I have to reread the end...but I was under the impression that the dudes were undercover cops and they were waiting for back up etc. Then I imagined that the gun shots were the guys coming to the mansion, not waiting to be arrested up the street or wherever they were. And that's why I began to think that if fam realized the chick was a snitch he would go back to their home base the mansion, and maybe he knew about the run but the boy said that he'd take care of it. So he put two and two together. I dunno :yeshrug:

How zealots of stockholm was created

Ludwig-

I woke up a morning in the mansion and thought I had bed bugs bite all over me. Anyhow it turned out it was just a spider bite. Anyhow, I really felt like experimenting so I made a coffee and went into the mansions office (studio). I came up with an idea to make a beat with a ¾ feel that then goes over to a 4/4 feel.
It came out pretty cool I think. I also had Donald sing a little background vocal line similar to what we did on Telegraph Ave. I didn't think this song would be on the album but a month after making the beat Donald played me Zealots and he had made a whole other new part in the middle that really surprised me and then it came back to my beat again. I like how Stockholm plays a part in the story.

How Shadows was created

Thundercat and Donald had written this beautiful song called shadows. But it needed something in the end to take it to another place, Donald called me and was like: hey I need to do something crazy with this ending part. I thought yeah, lets do something weird. I put on an organ sound and played some chords that worked with Thundercats vocals,I reharmonized everything and then in the big part when hell breaks loose, I did my version of thunder cats melody played with a weird bell sound from Minmimonsta. I also added a distorted “beck” kind of guitar and doubled the new bass line with it.

Telegraph ave
I started with the chords you hear in the beginning, during the recording of this album me and Donald used the G-Force Minimonsta plugin a lot. We had our fav sound in minimonsta and I remember running it through a guitar amp to get that distorted more vintage sound for the main keys.I added a simple 808 bass line to go with it. I think what really made the beat was when I put down a talking drum in there. I remember first putting it in and it sounded really cool but something was not quite right. I experimented a bit with it and tuned it down an octave and also ran it through a guitar amplifier. I love stuff that sound nostalgic so after that I told Donald to sing this little vocal line and I recorded it on my iPhone microphone so it almost sound like a sample. that vocal line gave it a very indy vibe which was interesting because the other sounds I use in the chorus are a bit more commercial and 2013 rap production sounding.

Worst Guys

Donald played me “dial up” I was like, this is really cool, Let me do something with these sounds.
A couple of hours later the beat for worst guys was done. I had always wanted to experiment with 808 bass lines and I think the chromatic pattern that came out is really cool and jazzy. It’s in fact my fav part of the song haha. I had so much fun playing the guitar solo in the end, its like my inner child’s dream coming true. Donald was like: just take it over the top times a hunna. The guitar solo was influenced by Joe Satriani and Pat Metheny, I hope they get to hear the song someday. Two days after I finished the beat Chance came up to the house and we played the beat for him. Chance immediately started singing “all she needed was some” and we all started laughing,, you can’t just say that?? Anyhow, after a while we where like, yeah, you can. This actually works!

Worldstar

Worldstar was one of the last songs we did for BTI. We needed something really hard and we came up with an idea to make a beat based on the metronome. I recorded Abletons click on my iPhone and then put a bunch of different FX on it. Theres a ping pong delay in ableton that’s really cool that I use a bunch.
The 2nd part of the beat came out by accident when I just slid the kick + 808 a quarter note, things got very interesting timing wise.
The best part of the production is the ending. Donald told me he wanted something pretty. I was like: lets have a saxophone solo!
I called my Swedish friends Jens Filipsson and Edvin Nahlin who are the dopest jazz cats, and they put down 3 different takes just improvising over the chords. They sent it to me and I started to chopping it up. I transposed the entire alt sax solo down an octave to make it a bit more chill — then towards the end of the solo I slowly pitch the saxophone up again to the normal register (3.37-3.40) and I let the saxophone end in its normal register.
