DJ Smallz: Is this something that was pitched to you or you wanted to be a part of? How did that work?
Maino: Shout out to [the director] Benny Boom, that's my guy. Benny Boom called me. I had did some work with him before ... acting. A couple of years ago we shot something in L.A. And I always told him, 'Look, homie I wanna do this. I wanna do more of it if I can.' He said, 'I'ma keep you in mind.' And when it was time he called me, 'I got something for you.'
