Another day in the books with Toronto artist/producer Rich Kidd. One of my favorites in hip-hop out of Canada, truly talented with natural charisma. We had some cool guests come through (pictured above left to right) Rich Kidd, Jay Rock, Mac, Charlie. Prior to Jay Rock a producer named Woody came and make a new song with Rich.
Rich uses Fruity Loops to produce, Woody was working in Ableton Live. They made a beat together with Fruity Loops sampling vocals and it turned out pretty incredible. Jay Rock came in and listening to a lot of beats then had to take off before we ended up recording. Trying to cram in a bunch of meetings and work in the short amount of time we have together.
