.DerrickMilano discusses how he built his career from the ground up, bringing all the pieces to HotGirlSummer together, what made PopSmoke special & more
“When I walked back through campus, all I saw were all my CDs I made thrown all over the ground,” says Derrick Milano.’s New York office, reflecting about the early days of his artist career back when he was attending college in Florida, stretching his last dollars to invest in making CDs of his music to pass out, only to find them spread out on the pavement.
Although being a recording artist was always the goal at the top of the list, Derrick Milano is best described as the man who continuously refuses to be boxed in. His ability to shape-shift to fit whatever role is needed to bring the best out of any track being worked on, makes him an undeniable influence in the room as a production connoisseur.
It started off as a joke. I was just commenting under everyone’s picture just saying it, because I started realizing when you’re verified on Instagram, certain people see it and it stays at the top. So every time I would comment underneath one of my friends posts, it would get thousands of likes, so I said, “Let me keep saying it and let me brand it.” When I started going out, people started saying to me. “Wow, a legend.” This s--t kind of stuck.
I was attending Full Sail University, so I knew about what was going on there, but there was no culture on that campus. I met this girl through a program I was in called BPA and she messaged me saying she saw I was in Orlando and she goes to University of Central Florida.
We had a whole bunch of beats sent over. The beats were OK, but they weren't strong enough. I got into the studio with this producer named Bone Collector. He pulled up this one beat and I did the “Hot Girl Summer” hook. For that inspiration, a girl I used to deal with was just posting on Instagram and she was constantly like “hot girl summer” and every girl was repeating the “real a-- b---h give a f--k ‘bout a n---a” . So I decided to flip it and make it a n---a perspective.
