"It was dead. It wasn't nothing going on," DJ Mustard said when asked about his production. "We had OGs like Snoop [Dogg], Dr. Dre, [Ice] Cube, all of them but it was time for a new generation and nobody in this audience can tell me somebody they was listening to before me and YG started bringing that sound back together. You got me, you got Nipsey [Hussle] you got Dom [Kennedy], you got Casey Veggies like now that's all together. It wasn't nobody before that."

i think it was probably dead to the mainstream, other than dudes he mentioned. if you like underground then west coast music will never be dead but all them LA dudes are poppin the west coast right now on a major level, west coast of course meaning LA.

his ego cant be that big to think no ones listening to anything besides him.

and what sound did they bring back? (not hyphy)

He seems to say something disrespectful every chance he gets.

My issue is that he's not that good of a producer to be talking like that. Anyone can make those one-note-at-a-time beats. A dope producer's sound can't be replicated (that easily). If he stopped making beats today, someone else could sit in for him and nobody would know the difference.

to prove your point, dude is upset that Iggy Azalea didnt get at him to produce Fancy.

I thought that was a Mustard beat, lol. I give him props for hustling himself into a position where rappers want his beats though. I never would've thought top names would fuck with that sound. And some of his tracks are cool to me. Just think he needs to chill out in his interviews.

That Fancy song is one of the worst I've ever heard. How anyone can like it I don't know. I can see the appeal in other commercial songs even though I may not like them. There is no appeal with fancy.

Never heard of dom kennedy or cassy veggies

Anyways, this piggly wiggly ass nigga needs to stop generalizing shit like that and calm that ego down. Its ovious hes talkimg about la/socal, so say that then dont say "the whole west coast" in general. And he himself didnt bring shit back for la, maybe the rappers did but his beats aint all that sick and they all the same and they all use sounds that have been used before hella and it aint original, and hella generic and not real west coast shit, more like club/strip club crap people can shake yo booty too, his influence is lil jon. He cant be talkin shit over and over again and apoligize with "oh i didnt know, im a 90s baby"...
