This week on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we welcome Grammy nominated producer and hilarious personality Cardo Got Wings to the Upper West Side! Cardo talks growing up in St. Paul, Minnesota, loving Prince, finding trouble in the streets, being shipped out to Denver and Dallas and finding his passion for music in regular hours-long visits to play with an MPC at Guitar Center. Cardo discusses how he built beats on Playstation, evolved his sound with a cracked version of Fruity Loops, he and his brother's brief foray into rapping, and getting a day job in housing loans. How he first linked with Wiz, how Mezmorized changed his life, leaving Taylor Gang, immediately being counted out, bouncing back and hearing Jeezy and Jay-Z rapping their life stories over his production. All that, plus we dive into all the amazing work he's done with Kendrick Lamar and ScHoolBoy Q and Travis Scott and Mac Miller and Snoop Dogg and Yung LA and G-Worthy. With a million impressions and a million stories, this episode is one for the ages.
