I was totally out of the loop when it comes to anything new. There's this rapper Curren$y, he's dope.' I didn't know anything about him.

"Dame was like, 'Yo, you need to come to my house. We're not rushing like, 'By Tuesday we need this!' or 'By March 18th if it's not done, then'" There's none of that." There's nobody pushing us to do this or do that. Especially with Curren$y-when we record his stuff, he keeps you high. You know what I'm saying? A good little zone. A couple times it was a little smoked out.

That's a whole different vibe from Pilot Talk, but it's still Curren$y. Him and Curren$y got together, and they make some good stuff. Muscle Car Chronicle was produced by Sean O'Connell. Once Pilot Talk 2 comes out, then he's got Muscle Car Chronicle that's coming out, and then Pilot Talk 3 comes. You've got to realize, there's also an album in between. "We're three songs into Pilot Talk 3 already. We caught up with Ski at DD172 and got the inside scoop on how there's even more Curren$y music to look out for, and what the vibe in the studio is like with Spitta.Īs Told to Insanul Ahmed ( Pilot Talk 3 and Muscle Car Chronicle. Not to mention the fact that Ski also released his own album this year, 24 Hour Karate School. Ski handled most of the production for Curren$y's Pilot Talk, which dropped earlier this year, and he'll be back behind the boards handling the bulk of Pilot Talk 2, which drops next week. Ever since then, they've been banging out song after song, working mostly out of DD172's studio (dubbed The Dojo) in Tribeca, New York. After first being introduced to each other by Damon Dash, the veteran producer took a liking to the young upstart and a relationship was born. In the past year or so, Ski Beatz and Curren$y have quietly become one of the most productive and potent rapper/producer combos in hip-hop.
