In this raw and wide-ranging conversation, Young Ray Beats breaks down everything from coming up in Connecticut’s underground scene to working with Icewear Vezzo and Lonnie Bandz. But this isn’t just about placements — it’s about building a brand, staying sane, and speaking on what producers really face behind the boards.

We dive into controversial takes during a “Beat or Delete” segment, calling out AI-generated beats, unpaid producers, and clout-chasers with no catalog. Young Ray also opens up about mental health, the grind of producing under pressure, and how independence fuels his mission.

He gives flowers to underrated CT artists, weighs in on who’s really pushing the sound forward, and keeps it 100 about what it takes to survive the game today.

Tap in for a conversation producers, artists, and fans alike need to hear.
