#Salute... people that rock with me may have noticed that I only have two poses in most pictures... ONE: a left handed, closed fist with index-finger and middle finger extended, Peace sign!! Or TWO: the infamous right handed, downward-opened-palm at the browline, SALUTE like YAK!
Well, one day, a fan of YAK TrYAKs Volume 1.11.11 mixtape basically told me, "you should do a YAK TrYAK to T.I.'s 'Salute' since you're always saluting!" So I listened to the record and instantly had an idea about how to incorporate it with the YAK TrYAKs Volume 2.22 mixtape. It didn't even involve remixing the song into a YAK TrYAK, but instead, I was going to utilize the hook and instrumental in an interlude for some CIAA commercials and party advertising... hahaha, SMH like YAK!
I had it all planned out... so when I went to record the interlude, there were three other YAK TrYAKs artist in the studio who overheard the beat and changed my entire plans for the song! They basically pushed me out of the booth and unleashed an onslaught of dope lyrics over the beat!! Their enthusiasm created a #YAKclassic moment where literally, within an hour, we had recorded a freestyle cypher that you now know as "
YAK Salute"!!!
