DJ Clark Kent sees Reasonable Doubt's legacy as two sides of the same coin.

It opened your eyes to somebody that you just wouldn't have paid no attention to.

But then for the new listener, it's go back and find out how we got here.

You understand why he's a billionaire.

How the fuck did you

get here? Well, Reasonable Doubt.

That shit help you.

To me, there is no favorite song on the album because the whole album is one song.

DJ Clark Kent highlights the inclusive nature of the creative process.

We were all a part of it.

I've said this before.

Yes, it's Jay's album.

But it's also Beehive's album and Tata's album and Emery's album and Big's album and my album and Dane's album.

It's the whole crew's album because everybody's thoughts came into play.

You know what I'm saying? Like it wasn't just me and Jay and Dane.

Sadly, Sauce Money and Jazzo didn't complete their verses.

Cashmere Thoughts, crazy enough, would have been a hard pack record.

Jazz and Sauce should have been on that record.

It's crazy because It was for totally another project.

It was for a project where they took on different personas and the personas were pimps.

Cashmere Thoughts was Cashmere Jones.

Like think about Bleak's name, Memphis Bleak.

you calling us bitches?

And

I'm like, well, he's my artist, what you want me to do? But when he heard Brooklyn, it's fine if he was not taking that or not.

Yes, it's true he heard it by accident, but it's almost like he had to hear it because if he didn't hear it, I'm not sure how I would have gotten them together.

You know what I'm saying? How do you tell this dude, yo, you have to do a record with this dude? When he's like, I'm already over here doing these records.

I'm about to build my crew.

Why do I have to do a record with this guy? And I'm just like, you're both my guys, but he's my guy.

So you got to do this.

In fact, the song wasn't going to be called that at all.

me to him.

And he rapped in front of me and I was just like, this guy is it.

So when I got my first A&R job with Atlantic record, well, my, I would say first A&R, that was the first real A&R, but was that, was that Atlantic? And like the second day I was like, I want to sign jazz and JV.

So I find jazz.

He was like, I don't know where Jay is.

I'll try to find him.

Cool.

That song was called Got To Reach The Top, a song that Dame Dash really wanted on the album.
