Sap Talks Producing Game’s Next Single “F.I.V.E.,” Featuring Lil Wayne & Chris Brown
Delaware bred producer Sap reveals that Game’s next single, which he produced and is featuring Lil Wayne and Chris Brown, should be out later this month…
Sap may be best known for having crafted the beat for Mac Miller’s breakout “Donald Trump” (the first words on the track are a shoutout from the 2011 XXL Freshman: “Ayo, Sap, what’s good bruh?”), but the producer is quickly positioning himself to become more of a household name.
“I actually produced this record for Game called ‘F.I.V.E.,’ featuring Chris Brown and Lil Wayne,” the Delaware based producer revealed to XXLMag.com. “That should be dropping anytime now. Supposedly it’ dropping Memorial Day Weekend, but I’m not sure.” The track is on pace to be the first new music released from Game’s upcoming album, which the California native announced to XXLMag.com would be called F.I.V.E.: Fear Is Victory’s Evolution back in March.
Sap thinks it’s a sound that should be familiar to fans. “It’s definitely got an East Coast style a little bit—it kind of reminds you of how that ‘Real’ joint is,” he continued, comparing the production on the upcoming single with a joint that he did on Meek Mill’s recent Dreamchasers 2 mixtape. “It’s not a South beat. It’s more of an up tempo beat, but it’s not a club record. It’s more of a traditional hip-hop beat, like a hard sample. It’s Game’s style but it’s still something you can hear Wayne on, too.”
The collaboration came about because of the young producer’s relationship with Cool & Dre. “I was just sending Cool & Dre music, and next thing you know they was like, ‘Keep sending beats, keep sending beats,’” Sap recalled. “They’re executive producing the F.I.V.E. album. And next thing you know, Cool called me and he was like, ‘Man, Game has this record called ‘F.I.V.E.’ It’s crazy. It got Chris Brown and Wayne on it, Wayne killed it.’ And then he was like, ‘It’s on your beat.’ And I was like, ‘Wow.’”
In addition to his work with Meek and Game, Sap said that fans should be on the lookout for a collaboration with Kendrick Lamar, as well. —Adam Fleischer (@AdamXXL)
