The Witzard Presents: Behind The Beat (Part 2) Homeboy Sandman & Aesop Rock's Lice 2: Still Buggin' EP "Mud" Producer SOBER MINDED MUSIC (Jobe of The Outliers)




" Boy Sand contacted me last week saying that Lice 2 [Still Buggin'] was dropping this week and my "Mud" track would be Track #4; he then swore me to secrecy. This will be the third song of mine released that Sand has blessed. I also did "Grand Pupa" from the 2014 Hallways album and "There It Is" from the 2015 Tour Tape. I've been sending him beats for about 6 or 7 years. I was first introduced to his music through the Good Son album, which is a classic. I was participating in a Best Albums of The Year list on Illmuzik.com and one member mentioned his name and that album in particular. I contacted him and he responded right back. Ever since then, we've communicated. I'm always grateful for the opportunity, because [Homeboy Sandman] actually does listen to all the beats you send to him. He really doesn't have to do that. Actually, when we first started corresponding, he would comment on every beat I sent and I sent a lot of beats. So, props to Sand for listening to a lot of whack stuff from me. He doesn't comment anymore, [he] only contacts you, if he chooses something. So, to aspiring producers out there submitting to the Boy Sand: patience is the key. Don't get discouraged!"
