Hitmaka on Yung Berg name change, Pharrell & Kanye, WILD rap industry stories

Fat Joe and Jadakiss are joined by hip hop industry mogul Hitmaka, who tells Joe and Jada about his career transformation going from rapping under the name Yung Berg on hits like "Sexy Can I?" featuring Ray J to producing scores of hits as Hitmaka, the hip hop producers he looks up to (Kanye West, Pharrell, Timbaland, Jermaine Dupri, and No I.D.), his collaborations with Bryson Tiller, and his appearance on Cam Newton's podcast "Funky Friday" earlier this year. Joe also tells more iconic stories about Hitmaka making magic in the studio with Cool & Dre, his Terror Squad pool parties in Miami, and why he's beefing with Costco for their false advertising of half-price Ozempic.
