It is going down. We are live from Los Angeles, but we're gonna take you Down South
not only because we have Mr. Southern Smoke himself. Heeeyyyy.
We got Dorrough Music. What's good sir? What up, what up Skee
What up. Welcome to the Skee Lodge for the first time. For the first time, man I'm glad to be out here.
What are you guys up to right now, I should say. We got a monster project bro
I need you to talk, TALK. Yeah what is this? I wanna get some more info.
I heard a little things. I heard there's a mixtape coming.
New projects. What's going on? Definitely a big project. It's called Shut The City Down. We dropping it next month.
We don't have the official date. We making sure all the promotion go right. Right.
We started with leaking a track.
We actually started with a record where we went out to Atlanta and uh,
Miles helped put together with me and Waka Flocka. Ok. You know we did that back in October.
So I been working on this project for a minute and, you know, we got big features on there
from French Montana, Juicy J, Waka, Rocko, Kid Ink, Problem
Crazy. You know
it's just a project that I would like to say is original. You know um, we been working on it
for a minute and we got a lead single for it which is After Party produced by DJ Mustard
Shout to Mustard. You got a lot of West Coast people on there. I heard you say alot of those names and stuff. Yeah, Kid and Mustard
yeah Mustard on the beat. You know uh, it's like a second home to me. Feel me?
You know, Cali was one of the reasons why I became a national artist. You guys approach music from a business standpoint and stuff
Like you got some new *** and stuff.
Everybody knows Ice Cream Paint Job your first record and all that. How do you approach music
from an aspect of making money? Is it, you know, giving the mixtapes out for free and getting money
off of shows, merge different deals, can you still sell music like.. What's your personal
approach to the business, because it's changed alot. Even in the last few years.
Right. It's about building your brand. You know, sometimes
you gotta do what you feel is necessary for yourself to build your brand
If you feel like putting out a mixtape out for free and you trying
to get it out there. You're trying to make good music. You're trying to get people drawn to you and engaged in what you got going.
It takes that now, you know.
But at the same time I still think the game is a situation where you can
still make a lot of money, you know from selling
because you gotta understand that artists make music all the time.
And sometimes you gotta build your buzz to be able to sell things the way you wanna sell them
when it comes to, you know, the iTunes and just putting out singles and different things.
But it's about working. Me, I love music. And everything when you're putting a passion to it
everything comes back, you know. It's purpose over money for me.
Once you chase a purpose,
the money, it comes. You feel me? That's real. Realest *** ever.
Feel me? I always believed in that, chasing purpose over money.
It's all about the passion first. The money gonna come. What up what up. It's your homie Dorrough Music and right now you're tuned in to Skee TV. Aye! Aye Yo check it out man, world famous DJ Smallz. Mister Southern Smoke and right now you're watching Skee TV.
