Often considered the architect of the trap music sound, Atlanta producer Zaytoven recently teamed up with Red Bull Music for The Note. The documentary series takes a dive into the life of Zay and explores his relationship with trap music, as well as his devotion to his faith.

HipHopDX was able to catch up with Ziggy before a special screening of his documentary in Los Angeles where we talked about the duality of church and secular music and the tremendous amount of music he has coming out this year.

What are the odds that Zaytoven appears on Jay Z’s next album? According to Zay, they’re pretty favorable. One of the South’s most prolific producers (Gucci Mane, Migos, Soulja Boy, you name it) to ever grace the studio recently checked in on #DXLive to give the scoop. “I met him once,” Zaytoven says. “We were talking about regular life stuff most of the time. We were talking about his daughter [and] we were talking about the election, things like that.”

It wouldn’t take long for the conversation to turn to music. “Then we start talking about music. He was letting me know what artists he likes. I was asking him who [is] he feeling in the game,” Zaytoven recalls. “Then it got down to ‘I got these beats I need to give you.’”
