Growing up in Fairfield, his love of hip-hop led him to meet Rick Rock and the other members of the Federation. Stresmatic was able to see hyphy's origins with Mac Dre and Mistah FAB, and helped kick off the movement with The Federation's song "Hyphy." He was also part of E-40's "My Ghetto Report Card" album, and has written and performed hooks for 40, Lil Jon, Snoop Dogg, and many more. To this day Stresmatic continues being creative, releasing new music and content and collaborating with both veteran and up-and-coming artists.For promo opportunities on the podcast, e-mail info@historyofthebay.com--History of the Bay Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ZUM4rCv6xfNbvB4r8TVWU?si=9218659b5f4b43aaOnline Store: https://dregsone.myshopify.com Follow Dregs One:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1UNuCcJlRb8ImMc5haZHXF?si=poJT0BYUS-qCfpEzAX7mlAInstagram: https://instagram.com/dregs_oneTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@dregs_oneTwitter: https://twitter.com/dregs_oneFacebook: https://facebook.com/dregsone41500:00 Intro03:31 Growing up in Fairfield09:10 Getting into music 12:05 Mike Mosely & mobb music15:05 Fonky Chicken Records17:47 Being outside22:05 Rick Rock25:39 The Federation28:50 Mac Dre & Thizz34:50 Keak Da Sneak38:11 Hyphy48:26 Stunna glasses51:56 The end of the hyphy movement 58:15 Working with E-401:02:54 Writing hooks1:10:22 New music1:14:48 Solo projects
