On Friday April 26, Top Notch, represented by Jiggy Djé, Sticks and Hef, released the track ‘Pincodes’. Ronnie Flex quickly knew what time it was and immediately started working on a response together with producer Jordan Wayne. Today the rapper opens up on Thread’s booklet about how the diss track from his holiday address in Curaçao came about.
Ronnie Flex shares that the track was made under great time pressure. “I had an hour and a half to tape. Wayne had to catch his flight,” Ronnie explains. “He was literally packing his suitcase while I was putting that shit down in my solo,” the rapper continues, after which he also speculates about how ‘Pincodes’ came about. “Bet those goonies were flipping their shit with an engineer, producer and A&R… Wayne made a mini-mix in the taxi. We da real mvp’s.”
The fact that Ronnie is proud of his reply to Top Notch only becomes more clear in a second message on Threads. “What I really regret about the situation is that it is now about all kinds of peripheral issues and no longer about how me and Joey (Jordan Wayne) flipped the ‘Mad House’ sample into a ferocious beat,” Ronnie emphasizes. “One man, without help, during my vacation I made one of the hardest chunes ever… within 10 hours of hearing the diss to me.”
