00:00 After what we have seen as one of the biggest rap battles in history, I think it's safe

00:08 to say now that it is the biggest, you know, numbers wise, right?

00:11 Yeah, it took away from the NBA playoffs.

00:13 I forgot it was the same thing as the playoffs.

00:15 Well, you have skin in the game in the past with Drake.

00:19 You have huge hits, you know, where you're either on it or produced it.

00:25 I'm talking like over, I don't know, probably...

00:28 Over 10 million.

00:29 10 million sold on one, that's just one, you know?

00:33 Do you continue to produce music with him and work with him after that?

00:38 Because a lot of people are looking like they're abandoning this shit, saying it's man down,

00:43 you know, like almost like he should retire.

00:45 I love, you know, I'm a Stan, you know, I don't switch up, you know, like you can say

00:52 one thing about that battle, but I want to know from your mind.

00:55 Man, of course, man.

00:56 Drake's my brother, man, you know, like I hang out with pops a lot, Drake's dad a lot,

01:01 he's from Memphis, you know what I'm saying?

01:03 So man, of course, I'm sticking with him, man.

01:05 You know, I'm a huge Kendrick fan, you know, I do a lot of work with TDE, you know what

01:10 I'm saying?

01:11 And I haven't worked directly with Kendrick yet, but I would love to, but I'm a fan of

01:16 both, you know, Drake is like family, family.

01:19 It's just a rap battle, man.

01:20 It happens and then we move on and everything just keeps going.

01:24 I think people are just taking this a little more personal because of the internet these

01:30 days.

01:31 The internet really did push that to a new level.

01:35 Yeah.

01:36 You know, everyone's a commentator now.

01:37 Everyone, you know.

01:38 See, you got these, you got these, these sites, these bloggers and this and that, they don't

01:44 really have nothing else to talk about.

01:45 So they keep on pushing and keep on digging up this and pushing and pushing and pushing

01:49 it.

01:50 Back in the Kool Moe D&L, Kool J days, we done had it, you know, a couple of songs came

01:54 out and that was it.

01:55 It was back to, back to the regular work.

01:58 So you get back in the studio, you're anxious to get back in the studio with them maybe,

02:02 or how's the feeling?

02:03 Yeah, of course.

02:04 I'm going to get in the studio with both of them, man.

02:06 I want to produce a song with Drake and Kendrick on it.

02:10 You think you can make that happen?

02:12 I've done other things like that before, so maybe, who knows?

02:15 [EXPLOSION]
