As the producer for the overwhelming majority of Cypress Hill's music, DJ Muggs learned how to create, develop and refine a sound, not chase someone else's sound or success.  "I came from a group, making whole albums," DJ Muggs says.  "I never got into selling beats.  Instead of selling beats to everybody, I made a Soul Assassins album and brought everybody into my world.  To be able to go in and just be free creatively is fun."Like DJ Muggs, Planet Asia is a visionary.  Raised in Fresno, California, Planet Asia eschewed the gangster rap stylings popular in his area and instead focused on developing his skill as a supreme lyricist.  His work with likeminded rapper Rasco as the Cali Agents made Planet Asia one of the best of the new generation of Left Coast rappers, a distinction given more credence given his string of critically acclaimed albums and his Grammy nomination for his work with rapper Mystic on the song "W."Now, Planet Asia is relishing the opportunity to work with someone as accomplished and stylistically similar as DJ Muggs.  "I'm with somebody that's actually made platinum records and has had a successful career and he's telling me to do it the real way, which is how I've always wanted to do it," Planet Asia says.  "It's a blessing.  You don't get these types of chances.  You usually get with a big producer and he wants you to do what's hot at that moment.  A lot of these producers, they change with the times.  DJ Muggs changes the times.  There's a difference."
