Mike Will Made-It is releasing his first album in seven years, R3set. He shares what his fans can expect from his new work, what it was like to work with Rihanna and Beyonce, why Miley Cyrus constantly “inspires” him, his journey as a producer and more!
Catrise Johnson:Hey, everyone. It’s your girl, Catrise J, and we are here with Mike Will Made-It. Congratulations on your new album, R3set. It’s your first album in seven years. How do you feel?
Mike Will Made-It:Man, it’s been a journey for real. Like it’s Ransom 3. So like each Ransom is like over, like different phases, and like Ransom stands for, like, releasing all new songs, orchestrated by might well. When I came out with the first one, it was like me coming after that, 2012, 2013, 2014 run. But it was a buzz tool for me at the time, because I was like, “Man, I can put together Kendrick, Wayne and Future in the song and make ‘Buy the World.’ I can put together Miley Cyrus, Wiz Khalifa and Juicy J. I could put Future and Swae Lee, and on the track and make ‘Drinks on Us.’” Like that’s how I was coming about the first Ransom, and I wanted to do it as many times as possible.
And the second Ransom, I wanted to do like a little refined version of that, Gucci Mane, Kendrick, Rae Sremmurd, “Perfect. Pint.” YG, 21 and the Migos “Gucci On My.” We had some cool collaborations on that. And that was also a long project. And around that time, right there, I had lost my hard drives. My hard drives had gotten stolen.
I heard about that.
Yeah, I really eased back from the music. And then I started buying real estate. So I bought about my studio that I work here right now in Atlanta, like when I first got that, it would just be like, couple TVs on the wall, we’d just be in there gambling on 2K. I wasn’t even, I wasn’t really tripping on the music like that.

Billboard cover stars and prominent Venezuelan artists Lele Pons, Elena Rose, Danny Ocean, Mau and Ricky, and Nacho have come together to discuss the state of their home country. They share the influences of Venezuela within their music, including ‘venequia,’ ‘hotel caracas,’ and “CARACAS EN EL 2000.” Together, they emphasize the need for support for Venezuelan artists, the role of social media in their activism and more.
Sigal Ratner-Arias:
Hello, I am Sigal Ratner-Arias, editor of Billboard Espanol. Today we have the honor of having Nacho with us.
Nacho:
I have never been willing to give up on Venezuela. You are a beautiful example of unity, but that applies to this generation.
Sigal Ratner-Arias:
Danny Ocean.
Danny Ocean:
Venezuela is tired, exhausted, we need a change, and I think everyone knows that to flourish.
Sigal Ratner-Arias:
Mau and Ricky.
Mau and Ricky:
There are real threats, serious things happening, very complicated. This is not as easy as people think, man. This is what we are fighting for. It is worth it.
Sigal Ratner-Arias:
Elena Rose.
Elena Rose:
Our music, our words, a hug, do you understand? It can give people hope; because I really don’t want any Venezuelan to give up without seeing their country alive.
Sigal Ratner-Arias:
And Lele Pons.
Lele Pons:
Now, that is our power, communication, so that the whole world, not just Venezuela knows what is happening.
Sigal Ratner-Arias:
All Venezuelan artists who have stood out worldwide with their music, or in Lele’s case, as a content creator on social media. And who have also used their voice to speak out on causes close to them, such as the current political crisis in Venezuela following the presidential election on July 28. Together, they will share their views on the rise of Venezuelan artists in the music scene, and as role models.

Is a Chicken Big Mac really a Big Mac? Find out with Eslabon Armado (Pedro Tovar, Brian Tovar, Ulises González and Damián Pacheco) as they sit down for their first taste of the new Chicken Big Mac, available at a participating McDonald’s location near you for a limited time.
Pedro Tovar
I think the first time I tried a Big Mac, I was probably like 8 or 9. I tried it and I fell in love with it.
Brian Tovar
I’ve actually still to this day never tried a Big Mac, because I’ve always been so loyal to my McChicken. And since the chicken Big Mac is coming out, that’s the most excited I’ve ever been in my life.
Damian Pacheco
I have high expectations to try the new chicken Big Mac, because I love that special sauce they got on the Big Mac. So it’s like the two best worlds colliding.
Ulises Gonzalez
I feel like all the Big Mac lovers are still gonna end up liking it.
Brian Tovar
People just want to see change. So I think it’s gonna be, it’s gonna be a generational thing.
Ulises Gonzalez
I’m not gonna lie. I think this one might be better than the classic, just because I like chicken. Me personally, I think this is better than the classic.
Pedro Tovar
It’s unbeatable to me, the sauce.
Ulises Gonzalez
I think regardless whether it’s chicken or beef, I think the sauce is what makes a Big Mac, for sure.
Damian Pacheco
What makes a Big Mac a Big Mac is that double stack. Honestly.
Brian Tovar
The chicken Big Mac, it definitely can be a classic, because the way I was expecting it was just to be a big chicken stacked on each other, but with all the flavors that the sauce, the cheese, everything just kind of has its own taste. It’s definitely up there to be a classic.
