What features did you secure for your debut? (AOL The BoomBox)
First, I cooked up a few tracks with Jamie Foxx. I went over to his house and we just chilled because Jamie is so cool and I really didn’t expect that. I also have an artist called Sarah Jaffe that people probably don’t know now, but will know soon after hearing this album because she has such a unique sound. She really changes the whole album; she turns it from right field to left field. Finally, I did a track with the producer, deadmau5. It was a new experience because never in my life would I have expected myself to do a pop track. I was so into soul music in Brooklyn, but Griff and my second producer, Jaye Jeffers, really took my sound from a five to a 10. So that was exciting and inspiring at the same time. deadmau5? That’s gonna be crazy. (Josh Baze)
