YungJdbeatzz is a native of the Dirty South, but his production has been used by many artists of different regions. The Athens, GA native’s beats have even hit the Hip Hop scene in Chiraq. Yung JD has collaborated with some of the Chi’s hottest talent, including Swagg Dinero, Bo Deal and Glo Gang’s BallOut. JD regards the latter artist’s single “Fake” as his favorite production to date. Yung JD’s beats have even reached the ears of Chief Keef. JD lent his production talents on Sosa’s single “True,” which is slated to appear on the Glo Gang frontman’s much-anticipated project “Bang 3.”
We caught up with Yung JD to learn more about his production skills and get the “True” scoop on Sosa’s upcoming single. – – Alphalpha
