That'd be sweet. So now I want to talk about your own, whatever projects, whether it's solo stuff or collaborations, you're working on now. I spoke with Del, I don't know, a couple of months ago, and he had mentioned something about a project with you and Dave from De La and Mecca. I wasn't sure if it was really happening, happening or if it was just him talking about wanting it to happen. But he said something about Modest Millionaires. Is that a reality?
Yeah, I mean, something like that, you know, we're still kind of getting all the fine print finished on. But yeah, it's something that will happen. Or I'm looking forward to happening. Everything's not totally concrete yet for me to even be like, "Yeah!" And then somebody says "Yeah, I read that you had this thing and..." you know, and you have to explain why it didn't happen. Or it not even why it didn't happened or you know, "Well, it changed," you know. Yeah, so I have to, we continue to work on it but, I mean, adding on that to the Del family, the Hieroglyphics thing, I just finished an album with Souls of Mischief.
Souls of Mischief, yeah. How did that come out?
You know, I haven't worked with a group in years, and so I asked them if I could produce their next record, because I haven't heard nothing from them in a while, collectively, and I always liked them. And we did it. I like that album a lot. I'm not going to lie. Like, you know, lots of [big] producers are like "Yeah, cool, whatever." But I think within the last year or so, two years, like, I've been putting out stuff that I actually like. And this Souls album isn't bad, you know, it's a throwback.
If you like... If you're into early '90s hip-hop, or late '90s to mid '90s, it's a throwback record, then you'll love this record. If you're into the fast-food music of 2008, then you won't like this record. [Laughs] It's a straight-up, like, you know, it's one of those records.
And does it have a working title, or a release date?
No, not that I know of yet. You know, there's still, like, a few loose ends as far as business is concerned. But I don't know if they came up with a title yet. I have to talk to them.
But you do every track on it?
I actually do it with them collectively, you know. Some of it's my music, some of it's what they submitted. But it's me just fine-tuning everything. So it's like, "All right, here's the track," and then it's me kind of manipulating it and making it how I would want to make it for them. It was a cool process, because we had lots of music that everybody had came up with and then we all, you know, just by voting, OK this beat's good, this beat's good, this beat's good. This one's wack, this is wack, wack, good, good. Taking the best out of it and then me chopping it and demolishing everything.
Nice. That sounds good. I'm looking forward to hearing that, man, for sure.
Oh, man, I just...I'm scared to see what people's reaction is going to be to it. Because actually, I like it, you know. But there's a lot of stuff I like that people haven't liked, you know. [Laughs] Who knows?
