On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by ⁠⁠Hit-Boy⁠⁠.

Hit-Boy has been the producer behind many immortal songs, straddling the worlds of hip-hop, R&B, pop, and beyond. His career began with an ⁠early placement⁠ on Lil Wayne’s Rebirth and quickly gained momentum when he produced “⁠Ni**as in Paris⁠,” a defining moment from 2011’s Watch the Throne.

In the newest episode, Hit-Boy joins Joel Madden for a raw and revealing conversation about legacy, therapy, fatherhood, and finally reclaiming his power after nearly two decades in the industry.

From producing hits for Jay-Z, Nas, and Travis Scott to carving out his own lane as a solo artist, Hit-Boy opens up about the pain, purpose, and persistence behind the music.

Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts. You can also watch the episode over at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Veeps⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
