Q&A: Fat Tony Talks Young One Records, Bun B and Double Dragon
By Drew Millard | Friday, May 18, 2012

(Photo: Nathanael Turner)

This week the nascent Young One Records announced its flagship artists: the rappers Children of the Night, Main Attrakionz and one Fat Tony.

Hailing from the southern hip-hop hub of Houston and boasting connections with Das Racist’s Greedhead label, Fat Tony’s raps are nimble, chock-full of weird wit and idiosyncratic swagger. This and his propensity to rap over beats that sound like they’re from the year 2054 situate him nicely on the Greedhead roster.

Tony spoke with Nonstop Sound via email from his California apartment, with his producer, Tom Cruz, “trying to figure out who ate my pizza.” Double Dragon, his Young One-backed mixtape, drops June 1, and he has a show at Glasslands June 11 and Santos June 14.

Nonstop Sound: What does releasing music on Young One mean to you? What attracted you to them?

Fat Tony: “It means Fat Tony fans get a double dose of us Denim Guinness Boys this year. Two new records. The first is Double Dragon, a collaborative album with Tom Cruz. Totally produced by him too.”

NS: What can we expect from Double Dragon that’s different from your other work?

FT: “Just a total progression of staying throwed in the game. More tight flows, tighter songwriting, crazy a— beats. I feel like every year is a step closer and I’m only getting better. I’m understanding what it means to make a great song every time I make a new album. I think Tom Cruz is really growing in his production too. We’re getting wiser and wilder with age.”

NS: Bun B called you “Houston’s best-kept secret.” What did that mean to you?

FT: “What may be the best kept secret to some is well known to a living legend. As a huge fan of the music I love and my home, it’s a big honor to have Bun B of UGK speak kind words on my name. And this was way before we even got together to make ‘Bad Habits.’ I grew up on UGK and appreciate a man like Bun being still involved in the mix enough to holler at a youth like me with some words of encouragement. God bless him.”

NS: What’s your process when you write? Do you put pen to paper, write in your phone, just commit stuff to memory?

FT: “Straight to memory. Made both of the new albums coming out this year in my head and in the studio. Usually I think up a first verse at home and let the rest flow once we start recording.”

NS: How do you come up with song concepts?

FT: “The concepts come from me and Tom Cruz bouncing around ideas and talking things out all day, all night. Sometimes we’ll think up a song while he’s making a beat in the wee hours of the morning. Sometimes it’ll be a song one of us thought up in the past, sometimes it’ll be something brand new that comes to one of us suddenly. We learn from each other’s abilities, and give each other the respect and trust to add our own touches to the record. I’m happy that Tom Cruz is a producer in the realest sense and not just a damn beat maker. He sticks with the song through the whole process of me writing and recording it, guiding it to where it needs to be. You need your Quincy Jones to be a Michael Jackson.”

Bad Habits (feat. Bun B and Nick Diamonds of Islands)
from Fat Tony & Tom Cruz: Double Dragon

[Fat Tony]
Remember the feeling of cheating on him?
You said that you’d never, ever do it again
Remember the feeling of cheating on her?
Or was it all just a blur?
She said some words to readjust my nerves to thrust her curves
Told my girl, “it just occurs…”
Man, it’s hard to break that habit
When I got a bad bitch in my house stranded
Talkin’ bout she too drunk and can’t manage
But she sober enough to open the Trojan package

[Nick Diamonds / Fat Tony]
Your kiss is why we live this lie
Cause I’m wrong and she wrong, we both know why
I love your food, your cleaning too
It’s never a “goodbye”, just “see you soon…”

[Bun B]
Damn, it’s not as easy as it used to be
It’s like you acting brand new like you ain’t really used to me
I’m sitting in the den in the La-Z-Boy twistin’
Yellin’ cross the house from the dining room insisting
That I shut up and listen and you get more persistent
Tryna kick me in the dick when you used to kiss it
The past moments of peace, I’m starting to miss it
We miles apart now when we used to share kismet
Now look at this shit, falling to pieces
Used to want forever now I’m praying that it ceases
Damn, we share leases, car notes, and water bills
This ain’t the way that we ought to feel, sort of real
I guess love is an illusion
That means you’re an Angel like Criss, confusion…
I see that I’m the one losing
And now my heart carries a bruising…
Contusion…

[Nick Diamonds]
Your kiss is why we live this lie
Cause I’m wrong and she wrong, we both know why
I love your food, your cleaning too
It’s never a “goodbye”, just “see you soon…”

[Fat Tony]
Together forever never sounded better til I met the
Girl of my dreams or so it seems, and I let her
Into my jeans, my things, my home
And now I never wanna leave this bitch alone
She hits my phone (hello?)
Whenever she thinks I’m alone, insists to bone
Til I’m like, “shit, it’s on”
My girl, she pissed and moans, bitches on and on
“What the fuck is wrong? Why’d you lock your phone?!”
Now I’m going home deleting text messages
Speeding, re-reading every single sentence she said and it’s
Making me wonder if this lust is just a sedative
Keeping me sleeping, not peeping the love ahead of it
Now I love my girl but I love my dick
I like to put it in hoes that are throwed as shit
And ever since I was old enough to spit
I was told, get the most that I can get

[Nick Diamonds]
Your kiss is why we live this lie
Cause I’m wrong and she wrong, we both know why
I love your food, your cleaning too
It’s never a “goodbye”, just “see you soon…”
