I got my first mixing credit on this album also, “Steady Mobbin” that was big for me. So when Wayne said I need beats I called the best people I knew that had a new sound. I met both of them in Atlanta before I worked with Wayne.
Kane Beatz and Chase N Cashe did most of the production on the Young Money album. I like giving each artist their own personal sound. I get to be more creative with everyone else.

Plus I love to work with everybody else besides Wayne, because Wayne already knows what he wants in the studio as far as sound. I love the album though because it gave everybody a chance to let people get a look at what everybody can do. My favorite tracks on Rebirth are On Fire, Paradice, Drop The World, and Knockout. She of course wrote the single “Prom Queen” but she helped craft a lot of the project.
Shanell also was a very big part in helping to create Rebirth. They sent me a lot of great tracks as well. Cool & Dre just kept dropping off new heat every week. Drew and Infamous would make tracks on the spot in the studio with Wayne. Producers Infamous, Drew and Cool & Dre came through big time for us on Rebirth. Wayne is playing guitar on almost every song. I haven’t done Rock before, so it was fun getting to use different plug-ins and just overall doing new things. KY also spoke on his involvement in both the Rebirth and We Are Young Money albums saying “ I had fun doing Rebirth it was something different for me and Wayne. In my case Wayne produces all of the songs because he has the vision of what the song should be” KY told. The producer is not always the person that makes the beat. The producer is the person that puts the song together as far as lyrics and arrangement. The engineer records the song, the lyrics, tracks, the beat, and gives the song its sound. The difference between engineer and a producer. If the engineer is messing up it throws the vibe off, which in turn affects the way the song turns out. Every artist has their own way they record. Also the engineer has to understand the artists that they are working with. You can have a hot song but if it doesn’t sound the way it’s supposed to, it might not come out hot. “ Well an engineer is the person that makes the music sound the way it sounds. Recently KY spoke to about what exactly he does as an engineer for Lil Wayne and the Cash Money/Young Money family. In addition to working with Lil Wayne, KY also works closely with Wayne’s supergroup Young Money. He is Lil Wayne‘s right hand man/engineer in the studio, crafting the sound of all the rappers songs. The committed philanthropist founded The One Family Foundation too.Recording Engineer Finis White, better known as KY has one of the most important jobs in the music industry. The company ignited the careers of two of the most successful artists ever-Drake and Nicki Minaj. Simultaneously, Wayne owns and operates Young Money Entertainment as C.E.O.
