In a recent interview with Benji B on BBC 1 Radio, Metro Boomin revealed that he had been in the studio with two heavy hitters, namely Kendrick Lamar and Big Sean. “I never ever really talk about things like this, but we in the UK so…I met Kendrick and we were in the studio, he picked a bunch of beats out,” he says. “That was great. He’s a great guy, we vibed out for the day.”
Metro also went on to say that he’s “been working on a bunch of stuff for Big Sean’s new album.” Metro has been a big dog himself in the past year, executive producing Future’s Purple Reign mixtape, producing several tracks on Kanye West’s The Life Of Pablo, and a multitude of other songs.
The St. Louis producer also took to Instagram to post an emotional message regarding the loss of his friend Bankroll Fresh, who was murdered in Atlanta this past Friday (March 4). “I’m hurt that this music shit has made everything so different and affected all of my personal relationships because of the high demand of work and the stress,” wrote Metro on Bankroll, “but you were one of the few n-ggas that understood and still gave full support. I miss how fun and natural this shit used to be, before it felt like as much of a job as it does now. I miss recording songs at the house all night and u would just stay and sleep on the couch because you wanted to win as bad as I wanted to win.”
