I have always been a producer at heart. So when I finally got the program Reason 4 on my MacBook, I took to making beats pretty quickly. The Cool Kids were the big up and coming rap group at the time so they were the main influence on this beat. As far as the 90s sitcom references? Ive always watched alot of TV. I think the first line I wrote was "I'm the good guy of rap, hip hop's Carl Winslow" and from there I just decided to keep the sitcom references going the whole song. And I added the "Family Matters" theme song sample at the beginning of the song once I finished the lyrics. Crazy how it all came together, and crazy the response I got off of it. This was one of my earlier solo songs that I got alot of good feedback on and people singing the lyrics word for word at shows. Shoutout to Ciccone and Nathalie!!
