If you like Bay Area hip-hop and haven’t heard of Drew Banga, chances are you’ve heard his music. He’s the producer behind some of Caleborate, ALLBLACK, Rexx Life Raj and 1-O.A.K.‘s biggest songs. And recently, he and his frequent collaborator Bosslife Big Spence released the title track off their project 10K. It’s in early contention to become a standout song of the summer.
Drew might be his own competition, as he followed that single with co-producer credit (along with Trackademicks) on Kamaiyah’s latest single “Windows,” which features Quavo and Tyga.
Needless to say, Drew works a lot!
On top of all of that, Drew is a father. He often shares videos of his children dancing to his music and playing instruments. His personal and professional lives seem to overlap seamlessly.
I talked to Drew about his approach to music and fatherhood.
