Statik Selektah gave a little interview for Hip Hop DX in which he spoke about the recently released single with 2 Chainz entitled “Smoke Break” and during the talk he had admitted that he was inspired by the pop culture rise of DJ Khaled.

“Not even his work ethic because I’ve always had that work ethic, but the fact that he’s elevating and elevating at the age he’s at,” explained Statik. “It’s like you know what? I have to keep elevating. Even though I didn’t want to do compilations anymore, it’s so much new talent and voices as well. It’s going to be a universal vibe.”
