mellomusicgroup's DJ BOOTH PROFILE

“for me, this is one of my favorite Trek cuts, it's a fit for the summer. And as a West Coast statement on where Hiphop is today, compared with "Ready to Die", this is a great step for the culture as a whole in my eyes. Trek is def an emcee who you need to give time to grow on you, but dude holds his own. He always manages to get one line in that sticks for me: "Addicted to good times, but thankful for bad ones/ Because I really never knew good til I had none" Shout to DJ Booth for holding it down!”

“As a label I'm a sucker for these low key head nodders that are gritty. Plus these Black & Pooh verses just don't tire for me - that's why i've been having em remixed for 3 years straight now: Apollo's is mix #4 and what he did for the hook is ill, definitely one of my favorite mixes (the other mixes were done by Oddisee, DJ Romes, and Georgia Anne Muldrow). "My Fam on the horn askin bout the mind state/ my minds great, I'm sharper than I've ever been, I'm on the beach over seas sippin Seraphin" - Pooh sent this verse from his laptop when he was in Hawaii. 1st verse he did for MMG. #Historic "I can't sleep, I'm on the grind, I'm Hungry/ Take a risk, put it all on the line like laundry." - Black Milk”

“Dope. Put on some quality headphones and listen to that ridiculous bass line. The ODB sample is killin it. "I never went to college but I'm schoolin' em" - yU The layers in this track add enough complexity to the joint that my ears always have somewhere else to follow. Boom Bap.”
