In Episode 7 of the Buss It Down Podcast, ItsDC4 and ATM Bezzal sit down with Oceanside’s own YT West for a wide-ranging, high-energy convo that dives into music, identity, and viral culture. Oceanside isn’t always included in the San Diego music conversation—and YT West opens up about what that feels like, how he’s navigating it, and what’s coming next.

We talk about:

• His creative leap from rapping to singing on his upcoming R&B project
• That viral moment with content troll Los Scandalous
• Why Oceanside deserves more recognition
• What it takes to break through in a scene that doesn’t always show love
• Real talk in our “Cap or Fact” segment and more

In the final stretch of the episode, 2muchFinessse joins the convo, adding even more energy and perspective from the Oceanside side of things.

Plus, we break down trending topics, do reaction segments, and tap into one of the most diverse, entertaining convos of Season 1 so far.

Make sure to check out the new music video “My Niggas” by ItsDC4 ft. YT West—out now! The full song drops Friday on all platforms.

New episodes weekly. Real convos, real culture.
