[@foreverseethe]

Man, Money Trees, was one of those beats in my life as a hip hop fan...just grabbed and enveloped me from the very first listen. Same with the first time I heard, "Fu Gee La", "Stop Being Greedy" (DMX), "Peer Pressure" (De La Soul), "2nd Childhood"(Nas), "Heart of The City"(Hov), "Pound Cake" (OVO) then Money Trees actually prompted me to turn the song off and savour it.

i love you bro what did you think to the new format (3 beats instead of 5)

[@joaomoreira5996]

@Kavan Dignam I think it was good. Despite there being fewer beats, the quality of the video was not compromised. It is a good way for you to still put out good content without the extra work which avoids possible burnout

my favorite songs from dj dahi is a lot and role modelz Goat producer

[@KavanDignam]

[@ASUV3323]

DJ Dahi has been in my top 3 producers for literally 11 years now. I can even pick out his beats without even looking now. I was literally listening to Ab Soul’s newest album and during “Church on the move” and “Positive Vibes Only” I said “This sounds like a Dahi beat” and guess what? I was right lmaoo.

[@KavanDignam]

what did you think to my beat bro?! also what's your favourite dahi beats?

[@ASUV3323]

@@KavanDignam The beat was fuckin great of course, but that’s pretty much all Dahi beats. Also I have A LOT of favorite Dahi beats but if I had to somewhat minimize it, it would probably be: • Money Trees • 90210 • Voices in my head/Stick to the plan • Chopper • C.N.B • Dangerous • Crenshaw and Slauson • Sexting • Me Now • Neva Change • Alhambra

No…we all do not know those songs. A ‘Hit’ is “Hot in Here”, “Happy”. “Circles”. “Uptown Funk”. “Baby Got Back”. He has no hits. He is just an extremely overrated rapper that benefitted from the Dr. Dre cosign and affiliation. He has terrible songs.
