Watch Cardo Got Wings Make a Track by Sampling Random Records
Texas-based producer Cardo Got Wings has been featured in the latest episode of Mass Appeal’s Rhythm Roulette. The series challenges producers to make a beat by sampling three records that they randomly select while blindfolded.
Cardo is off to a hot start in 2018 after co-producing Drake‘s new single “God’s Plan,” which currently sits at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100. He also worked on Migos‘ freshly released Culture II album and recently signed a deal with Def Jam as a duo with rapper Payroll Giovanni.
Among Cardo’s most notable productions are Travis Scott‘s “Goosebumps” featuring Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q‘s “That Part” featuring Kanye West, and Meek Mill‘s “Levels.”
In the episode, Cardo stops by A-1 Records in New York City to get some vinyl. As he gets going in the studio, he gets a call to tell him that “God’s Plan” was going to debut at No. 1 on the Hot 100. Despite his excitement, Cardo remains focused and delivers a chilled out trap beat.
