"Prod by Bloc" (released on streaming platforms as "Produced by Blocboy") is a song by American rapper BlocBoy JB. It was released as a standalone single on April 17, 2018. [1]
The song is the first song that BlocBoy JB has ever produced. He spoke about the making of the track in an interview with The Fader. [2]
One day I was in the studio with Trakboi and he left his drum pad on. So, I hopped on it and was like "Fucc it let me make a beat" because Tay Keith was moving too slow. I was just joking around, but Trak was like "Go 'head and try it out." It resulted in me making this beat is like one or two minutes. My beats remind me of beatin' on a desk in the classroom once the teacher leaves. But hell yeah, I plan on making more beats for sure.
