G.O.O.D. Music’s in-house beatsmith is back on the microphone.

Okay, we tried to keep Hit-Boy away from the microphone, and it didn’t work.

Thankfully.

After crafting some of hip-hop’s biggest hits over the past 2 years, Kanye‘s second favorite producer–because, Kanye’s favorite producer is Kanye–led a successful solo rapping campaign that included his critically acclaimed HITstory mixtape, and a full-lengthy album from his musical collective HS87. While still producing a massive amount of hits (“Backseat Freestyle”, “Scream & Shout Remix”), Hit-Boy is planning to further confirm that he’s as talented on the mic as he is on the keyboard with the sequel to his debut single, “Jay-Z Interview II”. Listen as Hit goes in over a soulful drum-driven instrumental, co-produced by the crafter of “U.O.E.N.O.”, Childish Major.
