OTL 62: Michael Watts Excerpt #3 “Fuck Action”
Michael Watts: What made me come up with the fuck actions was, right, I used to make a mixtape called "Bone Zones". Way back in the day, right. And Bone Zones, the concept of that was for people that didn't have conversation, didn't know how to talk to a girl, I'm gonn' put all the hot songs for the women that they like. You basically don't have to say shit; you just pop this tape in and let it roll and it's gonna do all the talking for you, right? So basically when I started doing the slowed down mixtapes, right, I called the series "Fuck Actions". Right, the same concept. Just pop this in, it's gonna do all the talking for you. Only thing you gotta do is let the music play, and she's gonna do the work
SameOldShawn: They still stand out, man, they're still great
Michael Watts: Yeah, that was the whole concept of it, man. The whole thing about the mixtape was that it was sexy, you know what I mean? Besides being slowed down, it was sexy, you know what I mean?
