Tell us about a challenge you faced during production and how you overcame it.

There’s a lot of times I’m struggling to find the last missing piece to the puzzle, or redo drums several times, or go through a few different artists until the vibes right.

DJ Quik. I grew up listening to Quik, his production, attention to detail, mixing, just everything he does musically is amazing.
