First of all, it was super, super random. I decided to come out to Chicago just to kick it for a little bit. I really didn’t have a reason to be here. And Chance texted me saying “Come to the studio at 11.” I get there at 11, and it’s me and Peter, Cam, Chance, and Pat, and everybody’s there. And he pulls us to the side and he’s like “So….we have to make a song for Dedication 5…tonight.” We were like, “Ok for sure, whatever you say.” And Chance was like, “No, for real, they called me, they said I can send them whatever I want. Not like Wayne has a song for me, Wayne needs a song from me.”
Chance was like, ‘No, for real, they called me, they said I can send them whatever I want. Not like Wayne has a song for me, Wayne needs a song from me.’
Instead of giving him a beat that we already got, or already started on—we wanted to just make something absolutely brand new. It pretty much just started out like Peter [Cottontale] coming up with chords, and everyone just starts putting all their little pieces in. I found that Michael sample and started chopping that up.
It was Wednesday night. A couple days ago. Actually, I’m pretty sure that’s the reason that Dedication 5 got pushed back—because they were waiting on us to send a song. It was almost like it was supposed to happen. All the pieces have been kind of falling into place when it comes to anything, me and Chance related. I don’t know why, but the universe is just like, “Yes, this is happening.”
