Are you cool with El-P? Sorry to bother, I know you and Cage have a thing, its just I've never heard you mention him...I'm pretty sure he is cool with Bill and it seems that you two wouldve been around alot of the same folk
WE NEVER REALLY CLICKED - PROBABLY ALSO BECAUSE WHEN I STOPPED WORKING WITH CAGE CUZ CAGE WAS BEING EXTREMELY SHADY HE ROCKED WITH EL-P ALOT AND I WASNT GONNA FUCK WITH ANYONE CAGE WORKED WITH AT THAT TIME - ALSO I DONT HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST EL-P - HE NEVER DID ME WRONG IN ANYWAY - I CANT SAY IM A FAN OF HIS MUSIC - IT WAS NEVER MY CUP OF TEA - BUT TO EACH HIS OWN
do you think people are aware of the jewish influence on urban subcultures such as hip hop (serious question)?
I DONT REALLY GIVE A SHIT - 95% OF THE JEWS IN HIPHOP ARE SOFT AS FUCK AND DONT REP ME - IM IN A CLASS BY MYSELF AND WHEN I DROP MY JEWISH GANGSTER SONGS YOU WILL SEE WHAT IM DOING AND HOW I REP WHAT I AM - JEWISH GANGSTERS IN GENERAL WERE A SMALL PERCENTAGE CUZ ALOT OF JEWS ARENT PROUD OF THAT - THATS WHY ALL THE SOFT JEWS IN THE INDUSTRY DONT FUCK WITH NECRO - IM TOO BRUTAL AND THEY ARE EITHER OFFENDED OR SCARED OF ME - AND IM THE COOLEST DUDE ON EARTH UNTIL YOU OFFEND ME - THEN I GET EVIL - BUT YEAH WHAT IM GONNA DO IS NOT LIKE ANYTHING THAT'S EVER BEEN DONE - THE NEW EP HAS 3 DIFFERENT JEWISH GANGSTER TRACKS - ONE FULL 2 VERSE SONG THAT WILL MAKE YOU CRY ITS SO HEARTFELT AND REAL - AND THEN 2 TRACKS WITH ONE VERSE EACH OF ME TALKING THAT JG SHIT - DOPE ASS LYRICS AND ORIGINAL OVER DOPE BEATS - I COULD CARE LESS WHO LIKES IT AS LONG AS MY FANS LIKE IT - IM ALLREADY ACCEPTING OF THE FACT THAT THE INDUSTRY IS LOST IN THE SAUCE - HAVING G RAP GIVE ME LOVE IS LIKE THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY RECOGNIZING BECAUSE HE IS BETTER THAN EVERYONE!!!!! AND IF YOU DONT THINK THAT ITS NOT DEBATEABLE THAT HE INFLUENCED EVERYONE IN A MAJOR WAY - SO G RAP SALUTING WHAT I DO IS LIKE 1000 OTHER MC'S GIVING ME DAP - I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT MY SHIT DESPITE BEING OVERLOOKED - AND REALLY WITH THE FANBASE I HAVE AND THE LOVE I GET EVERYDAY I DONT FEEL OVERLOOKED ANYMORE - THE GLASS IS HALF FULL - WHAT I GOT 10,000 OTHER RAPPERS WISH THEY HAD - AS FAR AS BEING A JEW - IM NOT SOME ROLE MODEL OR REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE JEWISH CULTURE AS A GIMMICK - IM JUST BORN JEWISH AND BEEN THROUGH THINGS THAT ARE RELATED TO MY CULTURE AND I GOT SOME FLAVOR THAT COVERS THAT PART OF NECRO - I THINK THE FANS WILL APPRECIATE IT CUZ ITS GANGSTA
Long time fan from the 90's. Gotta ask as a bass player, how do you come up with your bass lines? Do you jam untill you find some cool shit? Or do you come with an idea and destroy it? Thanks for the years of death rap.
IM A GOOD BASS PLAYER CUZ I UNDERSTAND BASS - AND GUITAR AS WELL - AND I BEEN LISTENING TO THE BEST BASS PLAYERS FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS - IT COMES NATURALLY TO ME - IM LIKE A 70'S BASS PLAYER IN A JAZZ FUSION BAND
Are you cool with alchemist still??
ALWAYS BEEN COOL WITH HIM - WE DONT KICK IT REALLY - BUT ANYTIME WE SEE EACH OTHER ITS LOVE - I RESPECT HIM
Is there any hope left for music stores and small record shops? Huge artists like jay-z released there albums exclusively on itunes first which hurts cd sales. generally speaking more people download now than buy cd's and some artists endorse that.
I DONT PERSONALLY GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THE FORMAT CUZ I PERSONALLY LISTEN TO ALL MY MUSIC AS MP3'S ON ITUNES MYSELF - ITS JUST EASIER - DIGITAL IS MORE ORGANIZED AND CDS GET SCRATCHED AND ARE JUST THE PAST - TIME TO STEP INTO THE FUTURE
hey necro whats your opinion on gangstarr
RIP GURU - BIG FAN OF PRIMO ON PRODUCTION - GREW UP INFLUENCED BY HIS DRUM PROGRAMMING AND UNIQUE STYLE OF BEATS DIFFERENT FROM EVERYONE ELSE - USED TO BUMP GANGSTARR AS A KID EVERYDAY
