In a May 5th, 2006 interview with UG Rap, Loer Velocity discussed the formation of Not for Nothin', which consists of Donnan Links, E-Dot, and Loer Velocity.

Well, we all know some of the same people. Donnan was cool with my man Sav. We were introduced at the Nuyorican (Anm. d. Red: Poets Cafe). He said he had beats. I said let me hear ‘em. With dot, my man Emmo was asking me about doing a track with this dude from Canada and he was down with Plex (Anm. d. Red.: Mr. Complex). I just wanted to know what he sounded like. The first time he and I met was at the studio when we were recording the joint. A song titled, conception. I think Dot and Donnan already knew each other. We all used to just hang and burn. Have recording sessions. I mean, not just us. iI’d be maaad of us. L.I.F.E. Long, Breeze Evahflowin and some other dudes you might not know of. At some point those sessions became a lil project called Not For Nuth’n. And that’s a whole other story.
