Let's get something clear; Hit Boy is NOT being salty about Roddy Rich and Kendrick. He just feels they could make more bangers together. I understand where he's coming from.
@@mr.bellefleur Because it’s not that serious he’s just getting shit off his chest, if it was some street or beef shit for example that’s when calls should be made.
A lot of times artists make a hit and feel like they did it on their own. Not realizing it was the formula and they were just a piece of the entire puzzle that created the masterpiece
just look at roddy now, his new music doesn't even come close, not even close to what he managed to put together on his first album / the mixtapes that came before that. Boy need to get rid of the yes men and go back to whatever zone / flow he was in during that time cause he was making music that made me think he was the next goat. His new shit is watered down and frankly trash in comparison.
I love that Hit Boy’s attitude is still that of a hungry producer that still has something to prove. He’s already done some legendary stuff over the last decade but bro finna continue to be around for a loooong time moving like he is.
As a beat maker this is one of those dudes that make you say WTF just happened !!! I haven't spoken this highly of a producer/ beat maker since Dilla. Legend
I appreciate him being honest about his frustration. To me it shows he's a real human and not some emotionless celeb. Plus what he's saying is true lol
Kendrick I can somewhat understand cuz Kendrick is always taking wild turns but theres really no excuse for Roddy Rich cuz he creatively he needed a spark after the first album
I used to watch hit boy back in like 2011-12 on RUclips making beats for artists and grinding my whole life was raw AF , this dude been a great producer they tripped out
because if you couldnt already tell, Roddy Rich has a terrible ear for beats. beats he choose be trash af thats why he fell off so hard. and Racks In The Middle is a FIRE beat. Roddy allergic to those
That Hunnit A Show beat is crazy! One of my fav Nip songs. I feel like HitBoy was really about to take Nip to another level. Nipsey was clearly in a zone from No Pressure into VL (even tho VL had songs that had been around for yrs) but HitBoy was gonna help him really figure out how to make his style and content more mainstream imo.
I would put Metro ahead of because of his diversity but don't sleep on Sound wave either he just need to do more outside of Kendrick for people to talk about him
I think once something is successful you should continue that success by repeating what you did. You've created a formula now just repeat it don't try to reinvent the wheel! Nas is smart, he saw the reception he was getting by being produced by Hitboy and saw the sales, and continued with Hitboy. If it aint broke don't try to fix it.
@hitboy I understand what you saying! You pretty much can see the vision, but its hard to get people on the same page. Thats when its time to tap in with people who do! No thirsty shit, Ill get the track whenever! You and Nas are a great example of what egos getting put aside, and great music being made looks like. Stay Smashin!
Because Roddy has bad beat selection, mainly cause he tryna sound & rap like future now which has made his music wack. Needs to be himself cause that’s what put him on
I’m curious what hitboy could be doing. Cause this is a trend with him for a lot of artist. So at some point when is he the common denominator we looking at.
@@flyghtmyleage6041 I mean I would say he’s down with the major artist and has bigger opportunities with artist like Kanye and the good music team who signed him a while back and that’s actually Midwest
Roddy prolly mad Hitboy gave the record to Nipsey he was prolly gone try to get it himself… he seems like one of those secretly mad, anti social, non confrontational dudes that be in their feeling for nun but won’t tell you
People say roddy fell off he really didn’t , his first album was just so good and such a classic it’s hard to top sometimes a lot of artists go through it.
Roddy has changed his style, and not for the better. He popped off with FTS2 where he harmonised and used a lot of melodies in his music which really set him apart from everyone else. In his new music he doesn’t showcase his vocal abilities as much anymore, so the music just doesn’t hit the same. He needs to get back to what we know him for. FTS3 had some moments which was cool, but it’s not even in the same league as his previous works.
He used to be the perfect hybrid of Thug and Future, now you can hear the Future influence is more prevalent when listening to the flows and cadences. It's hints of melodies similar to Thug how he uses his voice as a instrument but not as strong as before.
@@nov23gbe Couldn’t agree more with your comment to be honest. I really don’t understand why he decided to change up his style so much, because he literally had the winning formula 😅.
Hit Boi right cause the only other song roddy was on was how far I came, off games album. That shit went unnoticed cause people were hating on games album but that song was a fucking smash. They should of pushed that record more.
Jay Z “N****s In Paris” , K.dot Backseat Freestyle , A$SP Goldie , Drake Trophies, Travis Scott Sicko Mode, Kanye West Clique............... just to name a few and a Reminder of Hit Boy.
His tracks wit mustard been nothin but platinum. Ain’t nothin wrong with west coast artist workin together. Needs to happen more like Atlanta. Roddy made bangers way harder than racks in the middle honestly before they ever met. He doesn’t need him like that
All respect to HitBoy! He definitely will go down in the books as one of the best hip hop producers of all time, but I could really see him tapping in to different genres of music. Similar to how Pharrell did it.
Roddy need Hitboy at this point more than Hitboy need him, why would he reach out, he literally said he made a whole beat just for Roddy cas he knew he was right next to him in his studio session. If that’s not him taking the initiative then idk what is
Let's get something clear; Hit Boy is NOT being salty about Roddy Rich and Kendrick. He just feels they could make more bangers together. I understand where he's coming from.
But why make it public call em
@@mr.bellefleur Because it’s not that serious he’s just getting shit off his chest, if it was some street or beef shit for example that’s when calls should be made.
I can see Kendrick not doubling back he stays evolving musically
He is being salty
@@wookiee4145why is he getting off his chest publicly, when he has the resources to reach to these artist
A lot of times artists make a hit and feel like they did it on their own. Not realizing it was the formula and they were just a piece of the entire puzzle that created the masterpiece

He wanna be pop
thats part of the reason LLF flopped, bro aint have the same people on production
He been overrated
Facts
Boring ass beats. We need Perfect Time and Down Below type shit
Hit boy has the winning formula such a dynamic producer. Roddy should lock in. That would be a layup for him
Hit Boy is an all in one producer he can produce anything, they tripping!!!
They not trippin. They still successful
I love that Hit Boy’s attitude is still that of a hungry producer that still has something to prove. He’s already done some legendary stuff over the last decade but bro finna continue to be around for a loooong time moving like he is.

He’s overrated to me but more power to em

Hit boy is a producer that AK highly respects
And?
Everyone should be showing respect to Hit-Boy. He one of the best producers out right now.
Because they look alike
@@dec6p Wym rn nigga should of been got his respect a decade ago when he produced the classic known as niggas in Paris
@@Jeter112 no they don’t
I appreciate him being honest about his frustration. To me it shows he's a real human and not some emotionless celeb. Plus what he's saying is true lol
Roddy Rich definitely thought he made the hit song himself 😂😂
Kendrick I can somewhat understand cuz Kendrick is always taking wild turns but theres really no excuse for Roddy Rich cuz he creatively he needed a spark after the first album
i can’t believe ppl still sleeping on hit-boy….. everything dude touches is pure banger.
Roddy should check in. Hit boy really cares bout the talent. That’s the difference.
I used to watch hit boy back in like 2011-12 on RUclips making beats for artists and grinding my whole life was raw AF , this dude been a great producer they tripped out
because if you couldnt already tell, Roddy Rich has a terrible ear for beats. beats he choose be trash af thats why he fell off so hard. and Racks In The Middle is a FIRE beat. Roddy allergic to those
The Woooorst ear for beats
Beats aren’t “bad” they are very very very very generic
Nowadays yeah. It’s like he’s picking mid beats on purpose and sings less
His beat selection was top tier before he The Box shit but after it’s been trash
Especially lately
This episode hit different hitboy a real one u can tell he’s a solid individual makes some fire ass tracks too no cap
That Hunnit A Show beat is crazy! One of my fav Nip songs. I feel like HitBoy was really about to take Nip to another level. Nipsey was clearly in a zone from No Pressure into VL (even tho VL had songs that had been around for yrs) but HitBoy was gonna help him really figure out how to make his style and content more mainstream imo.
Seen Kendrick in Amsterdam recently, and he preformed that Backseat Freestyle.
This may go unnoticed One day threw hard work and dedication ! I will make my dreams of being the best rap artist in the world
I got bars😎😎🐐
Can’t wait for this interview! HITBOY on fire
It’s already out
It's out on Spotify already
Bro keep grinding and put out mixtapes that’s what hip hop needs I miss those days 💪🏿
HITBOY ON THE TRACK. THIS SHIT S’POSED TO SLAP!
Best producer in the game and it’s been that way for a while
For me it’s Metro. But Hit Boy is definitely top 5 imo.
@@elonjoanwilliams614 facts
He ain’t got shit on metro . Metro beats r unpredictable u can tell a hit boy song when u hear it .
I would put Metro ahead of because of his diversity but don't sleep on Sound wave either he just need to do more outside of Kendrick for people to talk about him
Best hit making producer not the best producer imo

@Dark Magik yeah 20+ years of success roddy only reaped the benefits of 2 years, hop off his own hype train too fast
After the 2nd cough 😷 you gotta offer your Guess some water at least . Great interview so far💯
🤣🤣🤣
I luvd hitboy since i hearing his stuff years back
Cuz both of y’all doing y’all thing‼️he still doing his thing🖤
Hitboy is on his Billy behavior. It’s go time for son. We officially adopted him on the east coast. Bless up king you just getting started.
His second album def proves he’s should have spun the block on Hitboy
Hit-Boy been producing for so long... already a Hip-Hop legend! Great choice for interview Ak!
S/O to the number one fun of 21 savage, 😂😂
@@Shoba14 dont play w me 😂😂 how u find me here
Yo hit boy that dude his beat go crazy
And btw, yoooo I can't wait to check this one out! Hooooly! Finally a producer on the pod! Gonna soak up so much game!
Artists be VERY ungrateful. Not sayin Roddy is ungrateful but That’s how shit go. Their egos get them feelin like they don’t need anybody
Him and Nipsey Sound hard as hell together wise word more with each other.
That’s racks in the middle is a SERIOUS BANGER!!!!!
I know one thing you n freddie gibbs need to drop that cradle to the grave song. That snippet sounds hard hard hard 🔥🔥🔥
out of alot of producers hitboy has been consistant and real through it all, never really making enemies
Hit boy is one of my favorite artists period
@hitboy I understand what you saying! You pretty much can see the vision, but its hard to get people on the same page. Thats when its time to tap in with people who do! No thirsty shit, Ill get the track whenever! You and Nas are a great example of what egos getting put aside, and great music being made looks like. Stay Smashin!
He did great work with nas.
Hitboy deserves flowers bro is fucking insane. Absolutely insane
I think it’s Hit himself like he’s a hot producer but it’s his style if you look at it he makes anthem beats in my opinion.
Backstreet freestyle was A Classic shout out Hitboy
Backseat not streets
Hit Boy is as good as it gets 🔥🎹💯
#HitBoy is running his own Marathon 🤙🏾 Hitboy is West Coast is Prince of beats. Producer of the year for 4 straight year and Grammys let's go.💯🐐.
I also peeped how he ain't pull back up on 30 Roc after they made The Box too, which was kinda odd
Hit-Boy one of the 🐐’s I’d feel the same way.
Because Roddy has bad beat selection, mainly cause he tryna sound & rap like future now which has made his music wack. Needs to be himself cause that’s what put him on
Nigga that future sound is what put him on 😂😂😂
That's how favvio foreign gonna look in 10 years
😂😂
Hell in 3, the nigga almost 40 now
😂
He’s already older than him lol
@@boomboombaby9140 ok but he still need the more years to look like that lmfao
seems like producer are more down to earth than rappers somehow.....knowing all the work they put in the craft
Roddy be tryna get that Atlanta trap sound he wanna be from down south so bad
He grew up down south he got southern influences But at the same time you right.
He was born in Compton but grew up in Atlanta that’s where he got his sound and influence from
Hit boy a legend from my era, im suprised he’s back
What is your era?
Hit Boy is a real one! Facts! 💯
Hitboy needs several fields of flowers. Dude is an all time great and isn’t even 40 yet.
Hit is a legend dope interview akademiks
I’m curious what hitboy could be doing. Cause this is a trend with him for a lot of artist. So at some point when is he the common denominator we looking at.
Big AK doing his thang
True that !!! People have become so INTERESTED in doing what they PLEASE they have forgotten ENTIRELY to do what they should " ❤💎🌿
He’s should be one of the producers that’s major especially holding it down for the west coast
I feel he do more for east coast
@@flyghtmyleage6041 I mean I would say he’s down with the major artist and has bigger opportunities with artist like Kanye and the good music team who signed him a while back and that’s actually Midwest
KENDRICK NEED MORE HITBOY RECORDS
To be honest, this is, how all producers feel
No common after “is”
Roddy prolly mad Hitboy gave the record to Nipsey he was prolly gone try to get it himself… he seems like one of those secretly mad, anti social, non confrontational dudes that be in their feeling for nun but won’t tell you
Yeah bro, Racks in the Middle is one of my favorite beats fr. Hit Boy is him #HalfAMil
It’s crazy when you think about the songs that ring it’s a Hitboy produced beat
HB can talk like this because he a production legend. he's far from salty but he know what it takes and had been around greatness.
This may go unnoticed One day threw hard work and dedication ! I will make my dreams of being the best rap artist in the world
I got bars😎😎🐐
as an artist how do you not consistently want beats from hit boy…
People say roddy fell off he really didn’t , his first album was just so good and such a classic it’s hard to top sometimes a lot of artists go through it.
He fell off
Hitboy I respect how he said he stills fucks with em
I need to hear just the Roddy version of racks in the middle

There’s a lot of rappers with that same melodic style that’s a stretch saying he stands out with that style
He’s signed to a major label that’s why.
Roddy has been garbage since day one
Hit boy one of the hottest producers in the game! Artists should be blowing up his phone FR FR!
Damn he did backseat freestyle and racks in the middle and a shit all hit boy shit I love wow
Watch Roddy’s tiny desk, then listen to his new album. How do you take that MANY steps back??
Hit boy from Fontana W shout out the ie
This the dude that produced This Ain’t What Ya Used To on the MMG3 compilation album.
Roddy needs to hit up Hitboy! Haven’t had to many hit bangers since “Racks in the Middle”
Jay always goes back to people he's made hits with and tests out new guys too...
Who
close your eyes and hear Hannibal Bures speak.
Hit Boi right cause the only other song roddy was on was how far I came, off games album. That shit went unnoticed cause people were hating on games album but that song was a fucking smash. They should of pushed that record more.

1st reason is the labels want to use "in house production" to save money the 2nd reason is labels also want to go with the "hot now sound/producer".
