After five years of fine-tuning, perfectionist producer and rapper deeziebrown rolls out 5th Wheel Fairytale.
Obviously, the job I refer to is notjob , but a more soul-numbing occupation that I realized, after absorbing the Bastrop artist's total commitment to his own humongous dreams, had to be ditched for the pursuit of art and the quest for truth – even at the risk of poverty-death. How's it going so far? My refrigerator malfunctioned yesterday, liquidating $15 of dairy items, and I collapsed in a puddle of tears. But this article isn't about me.
version of the"Black Skinhead" drum pattern, the only thing I could hear was an old-head identity crisis. Sure, the three dudes from Griselda were able to shift the culture back toward snarling, street-corner boom-bap at a combined age of 120, but their brand of street realness isn't a currency Deezie's bargaining with.
Throughout the first 20 minutes, our conversation dances around the fact of his music, though I don't realize this in the moment. Delving into his rural Bastrop upbringing, passion for hip-hop past and present, and his hopes for the future, Deezie repeatedly uses the phrase"my art." I, of course, take this to mean rap records, but then Deezie starts squeezing"my art" into the same sentences as"my music.

People are constantly moving on to the next thing, so artists break big today through constant content, but Deezie’s not cheap like that.”The most staggering revelation is still to come.
It's a foundation. You're not supposed to fuck around with it. The year is 2002 and the Neptunes have just unleashed Clipse's"Grindin'." Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams stumbled into a percussive loop so primeval, so raw – it could basically be the first beat ever programmed – they barely bothered to build the thing into an instrumental .
"It all came from my father, you know he was in high school in the late Eighties, and he had a huge collection of hip-hop records that passed to me," Deezie recalls."I started studying the back of CD covers before I could read."
