Im signed to Look records / Koch

2.HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT TODAYS HIP HOP,AND WHEN I SAY THAT I MEAN IT ALL THE HOT SHIT THE WACK SHIT....HIP HOP AS A WHOLE AND ITS DIRECTION?

Its fucking comedy......its like the W.W.F. or something.Im mean theres not alot of people making Hip Hop so its like far and few.Theres alot of bubblegum shit out and unfortunately we all get put under the same umbrella and that just make the alot of fans confused by the shit

3.WHATS THE ONE THING YOU THINK NEEDS TO HAPPEN FOR YOU TO TAKE THE WORLD BY STORM?

Balance......theres no balance,we just get force fed what the want us to think is hip hop.We need choices.

4. DO YOU THINK,THE INTERNET IS DESTROYING THE HIP HOP GAME,LIKE MANY PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT?

Nah,its helping.My biggest fanbase is from Europe.If it wasn't for the net many of them wouldn't know about me.We all just need to change with the times

5.HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT WHERE YOUR AT IN YOUR CAREER THUS FAR,AND WHERE DO YOU ULTIMATELY WANT TO TAKE IT?

Satisfy......not satisfied.But good.things are going how I expected.I have control of what i want to put out and what i want to do.With the majors you got the last say and may be force to put something out you didn't want to do.So I'm happy and getting better.

6.FAV. BIGGIE JOINT AND WHY?

The joint he did with J Dilla (unreleased) and Who Shot Ya...He was so grimey,the rhyme pattern meshed with beat crazy.just MCing at its finest.

12.ANY WORDS,OR THOUGHTS FOR THE PEOPLE THAT THINK HIP HOP IS ALL NEGATIVE?

Like I said earier we need balance.Hip Hop is a way of life,everything aint Hip Hop.We need to separate rap from that(the way of life)Its not all negative,but it is a reflection of life so take it for what its worth.

13. DO YOU THINK A PROMOTION SITE LIKE THIS WILL BE HELPFUL FOR ARTISTS,SUCH AS YOURSELF AND DJ'S,AND FANS WHO WANT TO ESCAPE FROM THE SO CALLED HIP HOP,THAT THEY PLAY ALL DAY ON T.V AND JUST CANT FIND THE HOT SHIT WE'RE LOOKING FOR?

Hell yeah,Once more people start to come and see that theres other shit out here and more site like this develop We'll see we've all been bamboozled.

14.WHEN CAN WE DO SOMETHING FOR THE FIRST OFFICIAL STRICKLEE HIP HOP MIXTAPE?

Just holla at me its nothing,you got the number.
