I worked on my birthday this year.

On August 1st, a very sweaty me set up a small studio at Billboard’s office for a 10 minutes (litterally!) shoot with DJ Mustard, who’s officially, at age 24, the most bankable beatmaker of 2014.

So bankable in fact, that he released his first album for free here.

Fun fact: He goes by Mustard cuz his first name is Dijon. So Francais!

Fun fact 2: The lovely Amelia from Billboard bought me a birthday cake and she knows how to strike a hip-hop pose.
