Kenny Mason sits down with Hakeem Rowe from Our Generation Music for a one on one interview, which you can watch in full below.

From the 22:00 mark of their conversation, Kenny discusses his admiration for Lil Wayne, working with him on J.I.D‘s “Just In Time” song, Wayne being the reason why he started rapping, his mixtapes, and calls Weezy “the G.O.A.T. for sure”.

The Atlanta artist also explains why he believes Tunechi is “the Michael Jackson of rap music” and reveals his favorite Tune project is The Carter 3 mixtape (not the album). He goes on to detail this was the original Tha Carter III album before all of the songs got leaked, such as “Scarface“. Mason even adds that this unofficial project deserves more recognition as it had beats from Kanye West and Timbaland on it!

Hit-Boy sat down with HotNewHipHop for their January cover story recently, which took place at Diane Rosenstein Gallery in Los Angeles, California.

After being asked about working with Lil Wayne on “Drop The World” and the newly-released “Sinister” from Cordae, the Cali producer mentioned he wants to produce a full album for Wayne.

“It’s dope. It’s especially dope for Cordae as a rapper who just came in and is respected on a rap level to go back and forth with Wayne on a song. That’s heavy. As far as me, I’m trying to do a Wayne album! One song is cool, but we’ve got a song that’s four times platinum, bro. Pull up. You know what I’m saying? Simple math.”
