Gary Richards (better known as Destructo) links up with Ty Dolla $ign and ILOVEMAKONNEN for the track ‘4Real’ (out now on iTunes). He explained the collaboration to The FADER:
The second night of HARD Summer 2015, Ty told me he wanted to go back in the studio. He could only do it the next day.
So, I went down to his house with Waxy (Wax Motif) and he just started singing, ‘I’m for real’ ‘I’m for real’ over this beat we had written. I had already spoken to Makonnen about the track, so Ty shouted him out. Makonnen then returned the favor. After we got all the vocals back we were like dam we need to make this track the best it can be. We went back in and re-worked the entire thing. Wax brought in his homie Stylaz Fuego to make it even tighter and 6 months later bang here we go. G-House 2.0.
