Ahead of the release of their collaboration, Mr. Vegas took some time out to sit with us, and discuss the collaboration, and how it came about.

T.H.E – Hey man! Welcome to T.H.E – Music Essentials. What have you been up to?

Mr. Vegas – I have been doing working on music for my upcoming EP. I am also working with some Latino producers on some other projects.

T.H.E – We have been fortunate enough to listen to your new track – Wobble Ma Head with AKADE & PABLO, and absolutely love the vibes on it! How long was it in the works?

Mr. Vegas – I met Akade and PABLO via the internet. They sent me the beat and I loved it. I worked on the track for about 3 months.

T.H.E – How was it working with both, AKADE & PABLO? How did this collaboration take place?

Mr. Vegas – Working with Akade and Pablo was really good. They knew what they wanted to hear, so they would send me messages on what to change on the song.

T.H.E – They’re such young producers and fresh on the scene. What did you like the most about working with them?

Mr. Vegas – I like their sound. When producers make music for people to dance, they are always successful.

T.H.E – Before working with them, what perception did you have about Indian artists? Did they prove you right/wrong?

Mr. Vegas – My perception was on the whole of Indian culture. I love watching music videos of Indian women dancing and singing. So I pictured in my mind, men wobbling their heads at the sight of beautiful Indian women dancing to this song.

T.H.E – You have collaborated with such big artists like Major Lazer, Hardwell, and Sean Paul. What do you look for, when you are teaming up with someone? What makes a person, the right fit for you?

Mr. Vegas – I look for sounds and I love to work with new minds, so I can stay young.

T.H.E – Lastly, what can you tell us about your plans for 2019?

Mr. Vegas – My plans for 2019 is to release an EP and hopefully come to India and meet a beautiful damsel.
