How much does music inspire you?
Music doesn’t really inspire me because people don’t make music anymore. It’s an art form and a lot of creators don’t put music into the music. My production partner Butta and I grew up thinking that a producer is someone that sees the records from the beginning to end, that understands music and the theory behind it; how it works and how to make it fit for genres. We produce, arrange, record and mix the song. We are a one-stop-shop, but we are in a world of click, drag, and droppers. They aren’t creating at all. They are taking loops and dragging them into programs to create beats. How can you call Quincy Jones a producer and then say that you are a producer, but you don’t know your scales?
What is next for you?
The goal is for Bizkit and Butta to become the best producers in the game. We want all the charts. We have records with many artists in different genres coming out within the next few months. It’s exciting that we are going to be the guys behind the sound of the next generation. We are bringing back some older generation artists and current ones. After that happens, I believe the Bizkit agenda is inevitable. I shot a Chase Bank national commercial that is on the way. Also, we are working with a new liquor company called Yolo that is launching soon.
