The Beat Yard:  What's up Cameron, how are you?  Are you ready for this interview?

Cameron Hailey:  I'm doing GREAT, thanks for having me.

The Beat Yard:  How would you describe your brand of music?

Cameron Hailey:  I would still describe my brand of music as THROWBACK HIP HOP/R&b SOUL.

The Beat Yard:  What type of beats bring out the best in what you do?

Cameron Hailey:  Something that speaks to my heart, if I don't feel it nothing good or creative is good come out, my beats usually have samples of old r&b and hip hop.So I would say those type of beats.

The Beat Yard:  Who are some of the producers / beat makers that you work with?

Cameron Hailey:  Baby breeze, OSHEA, Shys Debiocci, & MARQELL (BTW marqell PROD. my new single "1 CALL" feat. Oshea, which out RIGHT NOW. Go check it out you won't be disappointed).

The Beat Yard:  Who would you like to work with in the future?

Cameron Hailey:  I've always wanted to work with TRICKY STEWART, CHUCKY THOMPSON, BRIAN MORGAN, RODNEY JERKEINS And TIMBALAND.

The Beat Yard:  What type of instruments and sounds do you like hearing in beats?

Cameron Hailey:  I love hearing strings and guitars in my music, also I LOVE a banging beat.

The Beat Yard:  Do you buy beats?  How can producers that are reading this get in touch with you to submit beats?

Cameron Hailey:  Yes I always purchase my BEATS; if any producer wants to submit there music my email is Chailey348@gmail.com. I ALWAYS check my emails, so don't be shy to send me something cause you never know.

The Beat Yard:  Would you rather be hands on with a producer and work in the studio with the producer or do you prefer the producer to just send you beats and you work on your own time?

Cameron Hailey:  I Rather be hands on in the studio (with the producer present), I feel like the my songs turn out better that way.

The Beat Yard:  In your own words, what's the difference between a producer and a beat maker?

Cameron Hailey:  An actual producer in my eye helps contribute to writing the songs and has interest in the songs direction or concept. Also they make the beats. And a beat maker is no more than those to words a "BEAT MAKER", and to me those type producers AREN'T producers cause really ANYONE can make a beat; Doesn't mean your an quote on quote producer. Just my opinion.

The Beat Yard:  What are your plans for 2018?

Cameron Hailey:  My plans for 2018 are getting ready for my new Album to be released this spring "LOVECHILD", and the release of my 2nd single. And the MUSIC VIDEO FOR my current single "1 call" will be coming soon as well. So stayed tuned cause I'm gonna be around for a while.

BEAT TALK: Interview with LORD PAYBACK

Check out our exclusive one on one interview with rising New York rapper LORD PAYBACK here on THE BEAT YARD!  In this interview he talks about the type of beats he prefers, his songwriting method and more!  

Also get updates from LORD PAYBACK at http://www.LordPayback.blogspot.com

The Beat Yard:  How has 2017 been looking like for Lord Payback?

Lord Payback:  Ups and Downs....keep pushing forward no matter what.  

The Beat Yard:  What type of beats bring out the best in what you do as an artist?

Lord Payback:  I prefer beats with a fast bpm....100 bpm or over that are aggressive sounding in nature.

The Beat Yard:  What producers are you working with right now and who would you like to work with in the future?

Lord Payback:  I'm not currently working with anybody...it doesn't matter to me the name or status of a producer...If it's hot then we rock out.

The Beat Yard:  Do you usually write to the beat, or do you write the song and see if you find a beat that matches?  What is your method?

Lord Payback:  I always write to the beat. That's how you get a perfect match. I could do it any way I want but that's the proper way to do it.

The Beat Yard:  Do you buy beats?  

Lord Payback: Yes...I purchase exclusive rights.

The Beat Yard:  Do you prefer to work in the studio with a producer or just get the track and work on it at your own convenience?  

Lord Payback:  I've done both.  I usually do it at my own convenience and produce it myself, but if I am with a true producer not a beat maker and they provide valuable input then I am all for it.

The Beat Yard:  How can upcoming producers get in touch with you for beats?

Lord Payback:  Hit me up at lordpayback@gmail.com...If you do not have a written agreement or if you are not willing to sign the paperwork I provide you with...DO NOT bother to hit me up. 

The Beat Yard:  Could you tell the readers a little about your beat choices on your mixtape series Verbal Battery?

Lord Payback:  I just tried to find aggressive sounding beats that allowed me to speak about what I wanted to write about. The name of the mixtape series is Verbal Battery so obviously I wanted hard sounding tracks. I like beats that can start riots.

The Beat Yard: Is there anything else you would like to plug or shoutout?  

Lord Payback:   Check out my website www.lordpayback.com for more music and merchandise. We have a great line of t-shirts, tank tops and Hoodies with the Payback brand. Also, look out for my single "Get Sexy For Me" on itunes, spotify and every other online outlet. The video is also on the website and youtube. Thank you for the interview.
