WHO?MAG: Aside from Westside Connection there hasn't been a group from LA in a while to come together like that. What do you guys bring to the table? SOOPAFLY: Not really that I know aside from Westside Connection. Us as a group, we're our own entity. We have a new type of way of making West Coast music, not just West Coast, but all around kind of music. Just because we're three n*ggas doesn't mean we're trying to copy anybody that came before us, but we're trying to follow in the footsteps of those that came before us and did the group thing. We're trying to come with three n*ggas that really identify or define the word Dubb Union or Western Union. This is the best we could come with. This is just three n*ggas that are doing creative music. WHO?MAG: How did you get into production? SOOPAFLY: Playing piano at church when I was little. Then my dad bought me a keyboard when I was 10. It had a little sequencer to learn how to sequence. Later on, I ran into Dr. Dre and I got into it. I was just a keyboardist for a while. WHO?MAG: How do you approach to making a beat and equipment-wise what area you using at the moment? SOOPAFLY: A lot of times I hear something in my head and then I get on my computer and start to fiddle and come up with something until I like it.
