NewHHHQ: You've had placements with Skillz and French Montana. How did those come about and what was it like for you?
Andrew Hypes: Maaaaaaan the French Montana came through an artist named Face Tha Music. He had asked me to do a record especially for him and once I did it he called spazzing me telling me "this is the one" haha I was tripping because it wasn't one of my stronger records I felt. The Skillz Collabo came through twitter then email. After about 2 months he hit me and was exited about a record then didn't hear anything for 2 weeks, lol sitting in my studio I get an email from him saying something like "Whatcha think" and I was spazzing. Dude is a Virginia legend. We are tight now and working on putting more hits together!
