He also talked about the new sound in Atlanta with acts like Young Thug, Migos and Future taking over the airwaves.
I wouldn't put a definition or title on it," he said. "When these artist break, I don't think they see the vision of of how worldwide their sound is going to be. They just do it."
The crew also talked about a past beef with Drama and DJ Envy. In the argument, Envy broke down a fall out with Drama after a canceled mixtape project. Drama explained that it was simply a matter of miscommunication and his relationship with Hot 97.
