Hit is definitely in the conversation.
Yeah, I think a lot of, it doesn't take away from them, but a lot of people send out packs.
But to me, a producer is, you know, a creative that sees a vision for an artist or a song and they produce the environment that they're coming to write into, whether it's
They know, well, shit, that candle and that meal are really important to that artist.
That gets them in the right headspace, whether they know, you know, I could play keys or I could play such and such, but I know a better keys player and I know a better guitar player.
And I'm going to create this room that is going to bring the best out of you and the best out of me.
That's like in short what I consider to be a producer versus a beat maker.
You know, I personally haven't played keys or guitar or bass on any of the Emotional Oranges songs, but I'd say on like 85 to 90% of them, whether it was us flipping a sample that I found by sending it to my guitar player, whether it's coming up with the drum loop.
Yeah, shout out to Mitch.
Coming up with the drum loop that I wanted to build out with Tay or with Yanni or going A to Z on the musicians that I brought in and writing the music for them to go and reference when they're adding parts.
That to me is producing a record, which is why I don't like when people throw shade at Khaled or Puff if they don't have context to whatever record it was.
I've never taken a record outside.
So like a lot of people will...
take a song that was sent to them.
And once again, there's no knock to that.
If you're a performer, if you're an incredible vocalist, but you're not, you don't feel like you have enough to write about at that point, we'll take a outsized song.
But for me, I've never done that.
And I admire, um,
producers that are building artists from scratch, which is why 40 to me, if he's not the one, he's probably the one A of the past 10 to 15 years, because he took an artist that nobody knew about, nobody cared about, probably counted out quite a bit and took them all the way to the finish line and more.
Literally created a sound.
