Toxic loyalty, haunted studio vibes, & getting ghosted by rappers you helped blowup | Derrick Milano

In this Playbook Podcast episode, RebeccaJ and Julia Lynn Sandoval speak with six-time award-winning producer Derrick Milano about creating hits like "Hot Girl Summer" and the "Savage" remix, maintaining professional boundaries with female artists, and navigating industry politics. He opens up about his dating philosophy, relationship loyalty, learning to say no, and frustrations with a lack of reciprocity after years of helping artists. Derek shares future goals, including acting, launching a production company, developing new talent, and addressing pressures facing black male artists on social media while offering advice: stay focused, anticipate, and execute.
