This Is What It's Like To Make A Young Thug Mixtape | The FADER
i just seen that post about fabian denying that the problems w nc2 have nothing to do w him. this article about alex tumay and the work he does for young thug does one of two things, refute that as outright bullshit, or show just how many holes there are in waynes process.
tumay is the engineer on hand doing the recording, hes the one doing the mix, and he even going as far as executive producing the project. all fabian is doing is receiving a check like these other weak ass producers off waynes name, and not being overly concerned w the quality of the music.
look at that relationship, does it sound like theres anything approximately close to that going on with waynes camp?
really feel like this is an essential read for any wayne fan even if you dislike young thug, think it gives you a peek into the process of why and how young thugs music is being so well received (bcos ppl fking care about it when they make it) and why wayne has generally been panned for his releases.

We're kind of getting into a flow now. He knows that he can trust me on the mix—he has since 2013. With arrangement—like timing, anything like that—he’s like really picky, he knows if anything is off by a millisecond. I had a vision [for the project] and he was like, "That's dope, let's do that."
[With Slime Season 2,] I wanted somewhere between Barter 6 and Slime Season 1. I wanted to get the spectrum, from one side to the other: From the slow songs—like "Get My Mind Right"—to the turn up songs, like "Big Racks." And I wanted to go from one emotion and then slowly down to a chiller song and then back up again and then even out towards the end—which I think I did, but you can only control your output, you can't control how its received.
