Behind The Beats With Lex Luger: Producer Speaks On His Start In The Game, Hearing "Hard In The Paint" On The Radio For The 1st Time & Producing "H.A.M" For Kanye West & Jay-Z [Video]
Video After The Jump
Virginia producer Lex Luger has become a big name in hip hop in a very short amount of time.
In 2010, the 19-year old born, Lexus Lewis had heads nodding from coast with hits for Officer Ross "BMF", Waka Flocka Flame "Hard In The Paint", "O Let's Do It", Fabolous "Lights Out", Soulja Boy "Speakers Going Hammer" and Slim Thug "How We Do It", to name a few.
Lex has started 2011 off fast start as well, producing "H.A.M" for Jay-Z and Kanye West.
In this Samuel Rogers directed clip, Lex talks about how he started to develop then hone his craft. He explains how he went from playing the drums, to using an MPC 2000. Once he got a computer and mastered Cakewalk and Fruity Loops software, it was a wrap
Some people have labeled Lex's beats as repetitive, but when someone like Kanye wants to work with you, and pay for your beats you must be doing something right.
"H.A.M. really came about in New York City. we did See Me Now [My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy]. I had played him a lot of beats, he liked the ones -- not that I expected him to like," Lex said. "I left like 8 beats with him... he called me about two weeks later. He said he wanted for sure 2, that was one of the ones."

I'm still surprised that the real 'Lex Luger' (which is the wrestler Lawrence Wendell "Larry" Pfohl) hasn't tried to sue this little young dumb-a-ss yet for using his name and trying to copyright it...I remember Triple H from WWE tried to sue the rapper Game for using Triple H's nickname "The Game"...plus this damn clown ain't gettin' no fu-ckin' 35k a beat you fu-ckin' dumb a-ss...not every rapper can kick out that kinda cash for this kid especially if he's not consistent with making hit records over and over again...now maybe Jay-Z and Kanye together maybe gave this kid 35k for that one beat but not every other rapper is paying this kid that kinda of money especially during this hard time of making money in the music industry...this dude's got a couple of hits under his belt but there's other producers on the come up that i know of that will blow this kid directly out of the water so he won't be hot for too long...
