One Six Eight Records

"I know a lot of people we're not expecting this kind of music from me, especially after doing something like opening for Bone Thugs and Harmony haha, but there was definitely a song to commemorate that and I am sure if you stay tuned in, you know it's the infamous "Rita". Simply put, I am not afraid of the way I choose to write or express myself in music. I go with the flow and let new sounds come out. Believe it or not, "Piss Poor Attitude" and "I Hope I Burn" are over two years old. It just wasn't the right time to ever release them. Not only for the sake of focusing on rap, but also because these songs involved the emotions of other people around me. I wanted to respect my people and what they were going through. Time has passed and now these dope alternative tracks are yours."

"JD's World. I wish I had the words to explain how much this project means to me. Not only was it fun to create, but I allowed myself to get dark in a few moments. On the other hand, I have a couple songs that were made from pure experiences. For example, to open up the project, the first track is "Passionate". That was a freestyle on the spot, with a bunch of friends and family hanging out in an Air BnB in Joshua Tree. We all couldn't believe what kind of record it turned out to be. I don't think anyone would've suspected that's how the it went down."

"Let a Man Talk, let alone the EP itself, is definitely one of my favorite pieces of work. I ride Harley's man, it's a f****** lifestyle. I have made some of the most beautiful relationships through riding & it will alway be a part of me. The EP is a blend between that lifestyle, people I hold close, and keepin' it buck about what seperates me from the rest of the crowd."

"Dead is raw track. When I was writing this, I wanted everyone to either relate or feel this turmoil of muturing that I was going through. If I didn't make this track produced by Comma Dee, I am not sure where I would be right now on a creative level because giving this kind of content to people who love you is hard."

"Now I am hoping that people love the visual take on the track that was put together by Devki Bhatt. It was amazing to work with her and I look forward to bringing more content like this to our audience."
