It’s no secret that Murkem & Nick Flash are Apple fanatics. They’ve been DJing with Serato on MacBook Pro computers for years. They both have had an Iphone since the first release, so it was a no brainer for the guys to do a track that expressed their appreciation for the products of the late Steve Jobs.
At the time they wrote the song, Y.C. and Future had a huge club hit called “Racks on Racks”. It came naturally for them to flip the lyrics and rap about Macs. The song Racks was super catchy but really hard to understand, so they did their research and figured out exactly what Y.C. and Future were saying in the slang.
After that, Murkem & Nick Flash came up with the raps in a matter of a few hours and were already planning to shoot a video entirely on the “new” Iphone 4. Although the video never came out, the song was the first that Murkem and Nick Flash ever wrote, and recored together at In The Cut Studios.
