BOSS VIBES. When it comes to this music shit this right here is my day 1. Outside music this is my brother. Ten years plus. We both have come along way from a small bedroom studio on 12th & Fraser in Vancouver. After West’s Interlude on Full Circle I wasn’t sure if I’d get West on a track or on the mic again. Maybe we recorded something, maybe these photos are just for show. Time Will tell. Who trying to hear some new music from J. West & I? A follow up to West’s Interlude maybe a small project? Drop those 🔥emojis and let us know. #imperetiv #jwestvc #vancouver #vancity #yvr #hiphopvancouver #vancityhiphop #hiphopcanada #producerconnect #hiphopproducer #beatmaker #indiehiphop #undergroundhiphop #hiphop #rap #canadianhiphop #indierap #independentartist #hiphopartist #canadianmusic #torontoproducers (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQRnovxjs9U/?utm_medium=tumblr

Was really dope to link and chill with the homie K-Ski yesterday while out here in Vancouver. Up until yesterday we’d only communicated via social media. The power of technology! We’ve got a track in the vault that will be coming out soon called _____ and it features a dope rapper from Brooklyn New York who goes by ________. K-Ski is an emcee, writer and spoken word artist originally from New Jersey but now lives in and calls Vancouver home.

Does life imitate memes or do memes imitate life? I guess you either Die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become a meme. 😂 Landed in Vancouver yesterday and setup up a mini work setup in the homie @jwestvc office. Gotta remind myself that I’m on vacation, but it’s tough but you love what you do and your work is just normal every day life. Think J. West and I should record something while I’m here ? 👀 Who else should I link with (if I time) and record something with while I’m here ? Tag some people in the comments, let me know. #imperetiv #producerconnect #beatmaker #torontoproducers #hiphopproducer #lovewhatyoudo #vancouver #vancity #604 #yvr #indiehiphop #hiphop #rap #undergroundhiphop #undergroundhiphopartist #beatmakers #independentmusic #hiphopcanada #hiphopvancouver (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP8tnCxs-ci/?utm_medium=tumblr

“If you’re a Kanye West fan, you’re not a fan of me, you’re a fan of yourself. You will believe in yourself. I’m just the espresso.” Now, I wouldn’t say or claim that I’m a Kanye “super fan” (friends and family may tell you different 😅). I don’t own every album, know every lyric or weird trivia facts. I have always been drawn to Kanye and inspired by him because of his drive. I love pretty much all of his work as an artist, musician and producer, and I do think he is and look at him as a genius. I’m sure you can hear his influence in a lot of my beats and productions. From soulful sample selections, to little vocal hits, to carefully strategized over production or experimentation. The thing I have always admired about Kanye is that there are no limits to what he is capable of. If he says he’s going to do something, you had better bet Kanye. When I sit down at my computer to start creating, with my yeezus painting looking over me, it’s like that extra push, the voice inside my head, reminding me that I’m capable of anything I put my mind to. I just gotta do it. Is obviously heard the song Spaceship before, though I’ll admit it’s definitely been a minute. When I listened to it yesterday these lyrics really stuck out and resonated with me: “Lock yourself in a room Doing five beats a day for three summers That's A Different World like Cree Summer's I deserve to do these numbers” - Kanye West, Spaceship I’ve been making music for about a decade now, but with XOVID hitting last year I’m going in to my second summer of “lock yourself in a room doing five beats a day”. To be honest I’ve been seeing crazy results, achieving goals and dreams and really creating the life I want to live doing what I love. And that’s the thing with Kanye, there’s always a lyric, or quote or something that pushes, inspires and motivates me. Maybe one day I’ll reach Ye status and inspire someone the way I’ve been inspired by Ye. “Ask any dope boy you know, they admire 'Ye” - Kanye West, New God Flow I love Kanye, and not just the old Kanye.

“Can I talk my shit again?” I said this the other day on Facebook and Twitter, but I feel like I need to say it again. Not for anyone else but me. A little daily affirmation. So hear me when I say this. There’s not a doubt in my mind right now that I’m doing, with music etc … is exactly what I’m supposed to be doing. The universe been telling me, giving me signs, subtly whispering “keep going”. With June here we’re almost at the halfway mark of 2021. Almost a full 6 months in. I can promise you I have some incredible things planned for the second half of this year. Not saying the first half hasn’t been! Cause I’ve already dropped songs with Evil Ebenezer, J.Marsh, Junk & Young Stitch, Mickey Factz, Joe Sig, Jacobi the Giant, Asun Eastwood, Dystrakted and SLNC. Dropped a music video and some instrumental projects! 2021 has been dope so far to be honest and it’s only going to get better. Believe that! That’s all I came to say! Have a great week everyone. Vancouver I’ll see you on Wednesday! ✌🏼 📸 @eb.visualss #beatmaker #beatmakers #canadianhiphop #canadianungergroundhiphop #hiphop #hiphopbeatmaker #hiphopcanada #hiphopproducer #imperetiv #independentartist #indieartist #indiehiphop #indiehiphopartist #musicproducer #niagara #producerconnect #rap #torontohiphop #torontoproducers #undergroundhiphop #vancity #vancouver #welland #streetphotography #streetfashionphotography #yeezy #thedirtlabel #streetstylephotography (at Niagara Falls, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP00KoGDsE0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Last year I dropped my first Drum Kit, Gutter Drums Vol. 1. The response from the kit was crazy. People still message me about a certain sound they use all the time, or how a kick is their favourite kick to use in certain beats. 🥁 I’ve had a lot of people asking me when I’ll be dropping my next kit, Vol. 2 in the Gutter Drum series. The answer is. . . . . . Soon. 😅😂 - I’ll be going on a bit of a vacation from the 9th - 23rd. Once I’m back the first thing I’ll be working on finishing is Gutter Drums Vol. 2. Artwork is done, I’ve got tons of new drums and sounds, the only thing I’m waiting on is me. Stay tuned for more info. For now enjoy the dope artwork for Vol. 1 & 2 by @hueyp_art If you are using my Gutter Drums, drop a comment and let me know what you think! Or just drop a 🔥 or two for how dope the art is 😉 Gutter Drums Vol. 1 is available now on my Beatstars for only $9.99.

A few months back, after seeing a piece he did of Young Stitch, Eddy hit me up saying that he loved my music, that I was one of his favourite Canadian producers, and that wanted to do a portrait of me as well. 👨‍🎨 Last night I was able to see for the first time and pick up the very dope piece he had created. 🎨 Drop some 🔥 in the comments and show some love to @eddy.new_art for this dope piece. I’m a big fan of art in all forms and have a fair collection of paintings, prints, photographs and collectibles that I have collected over the years. To have someone paint a portrait of me is beyond flattering. 🖼 The painting is based of a photo shot by Aperture Media and has me doing the “signature” (as many call it) “IM’PERETIV pose” 😅 Very grateful to add this piece to my collection. Big ups to the talented artist, Eddy. Thank you for this homie. Much love. ❤️ #imperetiv #eddynewart #art #hiphopart #hiphoppainting #painting #hiphopproducer #producerconnect #torontoproducers #beatmaker #portrait #portraitpainting #undergroundhiphopproducer #indiehiphop #toronto #torontohiphop #hiphopcanada #hiphopmusic #canadianhiphop #artandhiphop #rap #paint #dopeart #dopeartwork #dopeartworkoftheday #imperetivmusic #imperetivbeats (at Welland, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPtdf6bjmOy/?utm_medium=tumblr

Are you in Beatstars as a producer selling beats or an artist looking for beats? I Woke up this morning to my first sale on @beatstars ! Thanks to a 🔥collab I did with @djaycas last year called “Heart Bleeding”! Admittingly, I haven’t used the Beatstars platform to its full potential or driven enough traffic to it (you get out what you put in!). This sale may just be the spark I needed to push I needed to really get going and use the platform to its full capacity. This sale also got my brain thinking about the numerous opportunities for producers these days. The different ways to make money and earn a living and continue to do what we love. There’s a meme / graphic I’ve seen about the “7 different income streams of a millionaire” and I always think of this in terms of what are / can be the “7 different income streams” of a producer. - Selling beats (exclusive & lease) - Albums + Singles - Royalties - Merch (clothing, vinyl etc.) - Drum / Sound Kits - Consulting / Teaching - Sync Licensing - Mix / Master services This is just a short list off the top, if you have other ideas please feel free to post them in the comments. Go follow myself and DjayCas on Beatstars NOW! #imperetiv #beatstars #djaycas #beatstarssale #beatstarsproducer #torontoproducer #producerconnect #beatmaker #hiphopproducer #indieproducer #undergroundhiphop #hiphop #rap #toronto #hiphopcanada #atlanta #independentmusic #beatsforsale #hiphopbeats #hiphopbeatsforsale #musicproducer #beats #rap (at Welland, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/COykDFTjFRQ/?igshid=1gdb7t0qgcs7j

‘Walk With Me’ is a testament to trusting and not rushing the creative process. This song saw a few different verses, potential hooks, revisions, struggles with art and titles but I can say now full heartedly that I am proud of the final version of ‘Walk With Me’ to be released on Friday May 21st. Make sure you hit the presave link in my BIO and add this song to your favourite playlist so you don’t miss the drop. Originally Mickey Factz wasn’t supposed to be on ‘Walk With Me’. The original track had Jacobi the Giant and a verse from another artist. I played a rough version of the song, with no hook, back in October 2020 on the ‘constructive criticism’ show by @breakalegent with @kosannot & @carvomusic with @mickey.factz as a guest. This was Mickey’s response after hearing the rough track. “Aye Nate ... why wasn’t I called for this”. His feedback was that the first artist (Jacobi) “went crazy” but the second artist didn’t bring enough energy. Hearing this from one of my favourite artists you know I had to hit up Mickey for a verse. Once that verse came in the song started to come together, even ended up getting Mickey to the hook. Trust the process. Take your time when creating art. Don’t rush anything. Rome wasn’t built in a day. ‘Walk With Me’ with Jacobi the Giant and Mickey Factz drops Friday May 21st at 12:00am EST.
