That ain’t Lord Tariq.

Scotty 2 Hotty (You can’t pause my ‘rasslin’ reference) shares his views on creating his own sound in the latest V60.

VIBE: You could easily relax and let Kanye produce your entire album. Why are you looking elsewhere?

Well, if I had an album that was all produced by Kanye West, it would just sound like Kid Cudi and Kanye West. It wouldn’t be just Kid Cudi and the funniest thing is that artists don’t understand that being a new artist is about developing your own sound and not conforming to what another motherfucker who is established has. I’m not going to conform to the Kanye sound. I’m trying to make a Kid Cudi sound, so the next person that comes, motherfuckers can compare him to me and it inspires him to be like, Nah, this is my sound. He can just make his own shit. It’s a chain reaction. I want to inspire kids to be better than me. 

We don’t believe you, Kanye’s producing too many people. Ha! j/k
