Photobucket

Back on my international shit!!! Say whats good to S.A.S,the hottest MC's in the UK.Ive know about them for awhile now but its time to give them there shine on the site.In todays game its still hard being a group,especially a group where both MC's are dope.But they dope seem to have that problem.S.A.S spits that venom that can be felt on any side of the world .I caught up with them for a lil Q&A and heres whats went down

1.FOR THOSE THAT DONT KNOW WHAT LABEL OR GROUP ARE YOU SIGNED TO PRESENTLY?

We are Free Agents rite now, we are not signed to anyone and never really been although we had 1 or 2 co signers.

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?

Not feeling it too much. Now it's about who is beefin who more than who is talented, and the politics of the industry are gettin worse everyday.

3.AS INTERNATIONAL ARTISTS ,IS IT HARDER FOR YOU TO GET YOUR MUSIC TO THE MASSES,OR ARE THINGS STARTING TO SWING YOUR WAY?

We use the net heavily, because we've never been actually signed to a label or machine. Our biggest complaint from our fans is that they can't find our physical cds, and with a fanbase that stretches over 50 countries, only a global deal will solve that problem.

4.WHATS THE UK HIP HOP SCENE LIKE RIGHT NOW?

I didn't know there was one lol. Mainstream wise there isn't, but on the underground, there's Road Rap that's taken off. That's basically British Rap from the streets that consists of all the ills of the roads, that will never make it to radio or MTV or mediums of that level. In US that would jus be considered rap music lmao

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

The people that Hip Hop put in power are destroying Hip Hop. Without the net, I don't even think we would still exist, left to the UK music industry.

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

I feel like we messed with all the wrong people, and a lot of them tried to hold us back or jus not see us shine without them shining more from it. Even though we have a serious fanbase today, I feel like we could have had 2 - 3 real albums out by now with the right team. Everything happens for a reason though, and now we smarter, image sharper and are more polished all the way around.

7.FAV. BIGGIE JOINT AND WHY?

Mega like's 'One More Chance' coz he turned a laid back sample into the biggest smash club record to date. I personal like 'Hypnotise', coz the flow was INCREDIBLE!! and video really messed me up, like why this dude had to get killed.

8.FAV. TUPAC JOINT AND WHY?

Both of us like 'Keep Your Head Up', coz that song was jus revolutionary. From the message, to the video, to the young Jada Pinkett cameo and we mummy's boys on the low lol

9.SANNI LATHAN OR NIA LONG AND WHY?

Nia Long, have u seen her in Alfie??!

10.BALD , BUSH ,OR NEATLY TRIMMED?

Bald.

11.TOP 5 MC'S (IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER)

Biggie, 2 Pac, Nas, Jay Z, Big Pun.

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

Do you listen to music or do you jus skim thru it? Plus u aint hearing no cursing or profanity from the radio or television till after the watershed so where are they hearing all this negative stuff?

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, coz the politics aint got to you YET. Lol

14.WHEN CAN I GET YOU GUYS ON A STRICKLEEHIPHOP PROJECT?

Soon as you tell us what that consists of my doozy.

15.LASTLY,WHERE CAN A DJ CONTACT YOU AND WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SAY TO ALL YOUR SUPPORTERS AND NEW FANS OUT THERE.AND ANY SHOUT OUTS.

DJ's and supporters can reach us on www.myspace.com/streetsallsalute, www.eurogang.net and www.twitter.com/eurogang. We love all our fans and I now everyone says that but without em, we would of faded away long time ago and that's the absolute truth. When people kept us in the background their support always brought us to the forefront so we love u guys forever for that, jus real talk.

Anywhere
