SINCE’s HE’S A Dallas ambassador,<br />
we had Mr. Yeah Buddy break down<br />
what’s popping off in his city<br />
All Star Weekend. Along with his<br />
Gangsta Grillz release party, Dorrough<br />
also lets us know about<br />
some other hot spots in D-town, as<br />
well as artists he’s working with<br />
on his label. Be sure to check out<br />
Dorrough’s other cover feature<br />

You’ve been putting out a lot of new videos<br />
and collaborations. What do you have circulating<br />
on the net right now<br />
I just put out a new track with Yo Gotti called<br />
“Hood Chick Fetish” off the Gangsta Grillz I’m<br />
droppin’ All Star Weekend. It’s pickin’ up a lot.<br />
DJs are spinnin’ it in the club. It’s gonna be a<br />
big record. We’ve also been pushin’ the “Number<br />
23” record. We just dropped the “Caramel<br />
Sundae” video. It picked up a big buzz. It got<br />
like 6 million views on Worldstarhiphop.<br />
Is the Gangsta Grillz mixtape your first<br />
nationally released mixtape I know you’ve<br />
done other tapes here and there, but is this<br />
your biggest one so far<br />
I did a lot of mixtapes in the past, but this is<br />
my first major mixtape. I also believe I’m the<br />
first Texas artist to do a Gangsta Grillz, if I’m not<br />
mistaken.<br />
How did you link up with Drama for this<br />
mixtape Was it something you reached out<br />
to him to do<br />
One day we ran into each other and he was<br />
spinnin’ the “Ice Cream Paint Job” record. This<br />
was back in the summertime. We exchanged<br />
numbers and after that we started hittin’ each<br />
other up for drops and different things I was<br />
doing. I started givin’ him other records that<br />
were on my album and he thought they were<br />
jammin’ so we started talkin’ about doin’ a<br />
mixtape. I wanted to do something after the<br />
album [was released] and he was cool with<br />
it. After the album dropped I started putting<br />
together mixtape tracks, which are on the<br />
Gangsta Grillz that’s being released All Star<br />
Weekend.<br />
What’s the experience been like for you<br />
since “Ice Cream Pain Job” hit number one<br />
This is probably not where you saw yourself<br />
years ago; I know you used to have basketball<br />
dreams.<br />
It’s just fast. One day I’ll be here, the next<br />
day I’m there. I do a lot of stuff so fast. That<br />
was probably the main thing I had to adjust<br />
to, living a faster life than I was [before]. I’m<br />
adjusted to it now. That’s been the experience.<br />
Everything comes fast. You make some<br />
mistakes, you learn and grow from ‘em. So<br />
that was the process, and now I’m more of a<br />
