- Drum Set
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Yeah, Travis Scott's dad taught me how to ride minibikes and how to repair the engines. His name's Jack Webster. Jack had a drum set and his brother had a bass. So I used to play with them, and that's what started me wanting to get into music and take it serious. And this is before rap.
- Outside
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I grew up in a town called Prairie View. It's like 45 minutes outside of Houston.
- Mom
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My mom's an art teacher, so I always had music in the house. She always had records, and I was mesmerized by the mechanics of how a turntable works.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Every now and then there might be a beat someone turned down that I have as an unused beat. But everything that predominantly matches the artist in my 30 years of doing this, it was me walking in and sitting there with no drums, no samples, no nothing, and making a beat on the spot.
- Attention
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've been sequencing all of my albums, from any Gang Starr stuff to Jeru to Group Home, all of it. I pay a lot of attention to that and really always have. I've even helped sequence friend's projects.
- Fade
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've always cared about how certain songs fade into other ones and which songs should follow others. I studied that as a consumer and fan before I even got into music.
- Guru
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Guru had such a different voice from most people. Plus he had a Boston accent! So, I always made sure the beats were tailored to him.
- Go
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Actually, for 'Family & Loyalty' I wanted Drake on the track but he was about to go on tour for his Scorpion album, so timewise it wasn't going to work.
- Hill
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Guru and I had a house in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, for a while and we used to have wild parties there when we weren't in the studio. It was like a fraternity house.

I'm not a tough guy, but I'll throw down just like the rest of them if I have to.
- Past
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've done some scoring in the past, but I want to get into it on a bigger level - a Danny Elfman level.
- Down
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
A lot of Friday nights, Guru and I would go kick it with Biggie, since he was just three blocks down from us.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's whatever - people like me and Dre are music people, so we're beyond just hip-hop. We're purists. Not everybody who makes beats is a purist.
- Guru
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Guru died tragically and there were so many rumors about how he went out. I got to see him in the hospital right before he passed, and one of the last things I said to him before I walked out of the room was that I was going to make sure that his family was straight.
- Gang
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
With 'Family and Loyalty,' I didn't already have an idea for that video. So I called Fab Five Freddy. I wanted to get a director that I didn't have to explain Gang Starr to and he was with it.
