A few days ago, 6th Sense chopped it up with Dub MD from Flawless Hustle. They get to talking about the It's a 6th Sense Mixtape, Yo!! series, 6th's sources of inspiration as a producer and the value of the internet in today's music world.

Here's a quote from 6th on his upcoming projects:
There’s always a lot of things going on at once, so I never like to specifically plug anything, because the specifics always get modified and changed. All I can say is keep your eyes and ears open, cause there certainly will not be a shortage of any music. I’m all about making music.
