UKIOMOGBE: Similar to Snoop and Pharrell, do you have two artists that you’d like to see work together?įAIYAZ: I’m trying to think. When you listen to “Drop It Like It’s Hot” or “Beautiful,” anything where you got Snoop and Pharrell on the same shit, you already know it’s some party shit. That shit is always going to make you feel life properly. UKIOMOGBE: Do you have a song that always puts you in a good mood?įAIYAZ: It’d probably be any early 2000s Snoop Dogg and Pharrell collaboration. UKIOMOGBE: Who’s your all-time dream collaborator?įAIYAZ: Probably Pharrell and Chad Hugo.
