in
the

living
room
The

Bangladesh
describes
the
process
of
working
with
Luda
to
produce
the
era-defining
track
that
helped
catapult
the
rapper
to
stardom.
“I
gave
him
the
beat,
I
seen
him
about
a
week
later
and
we
was
in
his
living
room.
He’s
like,
‘I
got
something
to
that
beat.’
He’s
like,
‘I
wanna
lick
lick
lick
lick
you
from
your
head
to
your
toes…’
It
was
a
new
style,
he
invented
a
new
style.”
Bangladesh
was
one
of
the
first
to
tag
his
beats
Bangladesh

tags

records
like
‘A
Milli’
which
changed
the
game
for
“new
era
producers.”
“I
definitely
pioneered
this
for
the
young
kids.
After
‘A
Milli,’
everybody
started
doing
it
…
The
new
era
producers,
it
became
a
thing
…
The
tag
for
me
was
like
an
arrival
to
becoming
a
producer.
Like
I
found
myself.”
Learning
to
navigate
the
music
business
Bangladesh
also
discusses
the
challenges
of
navigating
the
music
industry
and
working
with
young
artists.
“The
growing
pains
of
it,
I
think,
is
just
the
business.
Just
knowing
business
and
personal
are
two
different
things
…
You
gotta
figure
the
politics
out
…
Not
necessarily
the
rules
but
how
people
maneuver,
how
people
think.
Decoding
what
they
say
…
The
music
business
did
a
lot
for
me
as
far
as
reading
people
and
knowing
what’s
going
on.”
