DJ Mustard admits to using the Bay Area sound

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

nikkas really tried to convince themselves that the Bay sound was irrelevant. Yet the hottest producer on the planet is using our shyt and blessing nikkas from every region with our sound and making hits from it

. "I'm from Los Angeles, but as a Californian, I grew up on E-40 and Mac Dre. My era was the Hyphy movement, but my sound came from me looking up to producers like Lil Jon, Daz Dillinger, DJ Quik and Timbaland. Still, I get a lot of hate because I'm not the Bay, but it's all one West Coast and I just want everyone from California to win."

"Labels used to say these records sounded 'too regional,' but the records that are working now are the same ones they turned away," he says

In 2011, the Bay Area's sound was re-introduced nationally through rapper LoveRance's Up! featuring 50 Cent and superstar Drake's bouncy The Motto featuring Lil Wayne and Tyga. Each track climbed the rap charts, again pushing the regional music into the spotlight, but this time as a viable path to mainstream chart success and a tool for artists outside the Bay. Thanks to Drake's established star power, he took the once Northern California-specific sound of The Motto into pop's mainstream, where listeners have little idea of its California roots, just that the song is infectious

nikkas could say what they wanted,i knew damn well there was a reason the face instantly come over mewhen i heard mustards beats....hyphy was too strong in that nikka for it to not come through... Mustard for sayin that shyt instead of bein like a lot of dudes who be on that slick shyt talking bout "what?that came from the who area?never heard of it,i came up with it by myself"......nikkas finally realizing that "oasis of hiphop" aint just no made up shyt...
