iamsu! speaks with XXL about #NewBay, Up! & how Snoop Dogg made him cry

@Iamsu @JaekiCho @XXLMag:

Iamsu!โ€™s not in a rush to push out a certified studio album. Heโ€™s simply looking for a situation where he can express himself creatively without being stifled. While the Richmond, Calif.-raised rapper is most famous for producing and co-writing Loveranceโ€™s hit Bay Area anthem โ€œUp,โ€ which captured the clubs and radios across the country, Suโ€™s not in a position to push out a pile of booty knockers. โ€œShow the range outside of party music,โ€ is what the 23-year-old rapper says he has in mind. Even with a bubbling movement thatโ€™s drawing the attention of A-listers such as Wiz Khalifa, Su of HBK Gang is overtly down to earth, easygoing, and still pursuing a degree in communication at California State University of East Bay. With a full-throttle music career built around a chain of quality mixtapes, including his latest acclaimed effort $Uzy 6 $Peed, the producer/rapper sat down with XXL to discuss his musical upbringing, the Bay, and a string of quirky life moments. โ€”Jaeki Cho (@JaekiCho)
