Cashe gives Sermon an in depth interview as they discuss the mixtape, working with DJ Drama, his history with Drake, touring, Static Major and much more.

If you ask Chase N. Cashe if he feels that he’s blown up, he’ll tell you that the first step has been accomplished. In the eyes of others, he’s really at that level. He’s always been around in the game since the age of 18 but one of the production credits that took him and his partner Hit-Boy to the next level was Lil Wayne’s “Drop The World.” From there, things just sort of fell into place slowly. He produced Drake’s “Look What You’ve Done” off Take Care and plenty of other records from the likes of Trouble, Alley Boy, L.E.P. Bogus Boys and more.
It’s not enough for him to hold down the production side, he raps too. Great I might add. That seems to be a bigger focus with a ton of producers, including Tha Bizness, Jake One, AraabMuzik and Cardiak, working with him. He droppedGumbeaux in early 2011 to some moderate success. It birthed a few records that has helped him but the last stretch of the year up until now is where it really helped. He took a different approach with his DJ Drama-hosted The Heir Up Thereproject, dropping Friday. Releasing several songs one at a time to keep his name circulating proved to work.
Sermon’s Domain recently got on the phone with the New Orleans native in a pretty lengthy but interesting interview. We talk about the upcoming Club Paradise tour and how important that’s going to be for him. He shares why he loves Static Major’s music so much. Then, the talks about The Heir Up There pertaining to the title, how important it was for Drama to host and the approach he took. All this and more awaits.
SD: What’s going on, Chase? How you feeling?
Chase: Man, I’m feeling great. It’s a Thursday night, I’m in the hood in L.A. chilling, studio with my people my nigga and just relaxing.
What you doing out in L.A?
Ah man, right now rehearsing for the Club Paradise Tour coming up next month. Also at the same time, you know, recording new music, making beats and working with some people.
