HipHopWired.com: We don’t hear about a lot of rappers coming out of Atlanta’s Old Fourth Ward area, but everybody knows how it is over there. What was your experience like?
Dae Dae: I learned everything from there. My dad lived in that area for a long time. It’s an area where everybody sticks together. When it comes to reunions, family, everybody puts something together and shows love. It was hard too though. I was was in a bad space, breaking in houses, got shot at too. It’s ups and downs over there. But I learned everything I needed to be streetwise.
Dae Dae: I knew how to rap, I just didn’t know how to work the program. I had to spend a lot of time learning how to work the program. I got to a point where I was staying in the studio to learn. Now, I mix all of my own tracks.
