DJ Drama took the time to explain his thoughts on the process in the video, titled Hot Shot: Gangsta Grillz Documentary. There he explains that he feels the Hot Shot mixtape series is arguably the most important one of all time. "I was able to really touch all facets of, not even just hip hop culture, but just music in general." Drama makes his statement at the beginning of the short film.

G Perico x DJ Drama "Hot Shot: Gangsta Grillz"

Hot Shot: Gangsta Grillz has 13 tracks total on the album. Some of the songs include "Religion," "Everything," and "Lifestyle." There are also a couple of singles that have been released prior to Gangsta Grillz. One notable single is "Ask G4." A couple of the tracks feature other artists, such as Steelz and RJmrLA. However, each song on Hot Shot shows off the musical chemistry between both DJ Drama and G Perico.

Drama's main goal for the mixtape was to showcase talent and put something unique on the market. "Cause right now in L.A everybody's sounding the same. All the beats sound the same, it's all the same producers." Drama is confident that fans will be pleased with the new installment in the Hot Shot series. G Perico and DJ Drama are excited and proud of Gangsta Grillz, as the project has been in the works for some time. Make sure to give the new album a listen on your preferred streaming service.
