“I have been telling him, ‘Yo, I got these Michael records [that I did for Michael].’ And I’ll never forget Michael’s manager saying, ‘Yo, Michael wants some “Superthug!”‘ And I was like, ‘What?'” the producer-singer recalled. “I remember being so baffled and so crushed, ’cause he still is my idol.”
