Classic 2pac Interview

While we're on this biggie kick over the weekend ($21 million opening). Here's a classic 2pac interview that's floating around again now and not a lot of people have probably seen. Enjoy.

Video Archive: Seattle 2005 - Sir Mix-A-Lot Interview

What many people don't realize (even some seattle kids) is that the 1988 SWASS album goes hard. He was much more than just a one hit wonder. Little known fact: he got writing credit and sample money from that pussy cat dolls song "Don't Cha" which basically jacked his hook legally.

Who woulda knew 206proof is useful for something non ignorant once in a while.

Angie Martinez interviews Kanye West

Incredible interview. I love Angie wit her fine ass. And Kanye's freestyle at the end is DOPE! He gives alot of insight as to why the new album is like it is, and I definitely agree with his way of thinking to the utmost. I DO, however, wish that he would have taken some vocal training before he recorded..but I guess it's necessary to get the creativity out when it's there FRESH in your mind. I hope that Yeezy continues to do HIS music like HE wants..I stand firm on my opinion that he needs to learn how to sing before he does so though.

It wasn't okay for Van Gogh to kill himself, and it wasn't okay for Kanye to kill your ears. He can fix it. The album is FIRE, btw. His voice not so much, although it doesn't take anything away from the album. STILL BALLIN!

Chyea.

Nas on the Colbert Report. Funny stuff. And a Bonus Nas performance

Nas Says Kanye Saved Hip-Hop

Complex interviews Nas

Complex: Looking back at the whole album title debacle, would you have just named it something else if you could do it over again?

Nas: No, it’s all good man. It’s what it’s all about. Getting people talking, getting people thinking. Rap dudes are serious dudes—most of us, man. And when it comes to the voice we got, knowing we got this outlet to reach mad people, that’s what I’m here for. At least in 2008, right here, it’s about being a part of a conversation to point out the hypocrites.

Complex: Kanye says that you are the greatest rapper of all time. How does it make you feel when people call Lil’ Wayne the best rapper alive?

Nas: Oh man, good. I only feel weird when you’re saying that about me. I think Kanye West saved rap. I think Lil’ Wayne is showing there is a future for all kinds of artists to continue doing this. You know, I love it.

Complex: Who in the game still excites you?

Nas: Kanye, OutKast, Eminem.

Complex: You recently did a fashion shoot with us where you wore a lot of bright colors. There was a lot of shit talking about it on the Internet, saying that you were dressed like Kanye. Why do you think they made such a big deal about it?

Lil Wayne Blender Interview & Contest

That is an UGLY Mothafucka. Why is he cryin out his mouth? oh... that's probably... never mind... Anyways...

Blender Magazine Interviews Lil Wayne. Sort of. They have Fan's send in questions and he answers them. Some of them = outright HILARIOUS!

Who do you want to take the White House?
candida.efrom, Detroit

Barack, I guess, but I can’t make a real opinion. I ain’t watching no debates. I just want my people to understand that Hillary and Barack are not running for president—they running to be able to run for president. There’s a Republican party, too—we ain’t about to win, fool! A woman or a black man versus an old white dude? Fuck no! They gonna be like, This black-ass nigga trying to come in my Oval Office? Fuuuuck no. The world about to end in 2012 anyway. ’Cause the Mayans made calendars, and they stop at 2012. I got encyclopedias on the bus. The world is gonna end as we know it. You can see it already. A planet doesn’t exist: There’s no more Pluto. Planes are flying into buildings—and not just the Twin Towers, but dudes who play baseball are flying planes into buildings. Mosquitoes bite you and you die. And a black man and a woman are running for president!

You’ve been arrested three times in the last six months. What’s the secret to
surviving a weekend in jail?
hellsrells145, Passaic, NJ

It’s just like you living in a bad apartment. That’s how I look at it: Here we go. Fuck. Somebody gon’ fuck with you, but ignoring a nigga is cool. You getting out of there in a few days. That nigga just trying to make your stay longer. One tip is: If you only gonna be in there a few days, even if it’s a whole week, don’t eat. Who wanna shit in front of anyone? Everyone gonna smell you. Some niggas in there don’t care, but me, I’m a hygienical nigga. You gotta hold that in.

You’ve said you want to retire and become a French hip-hop star. What dirty French words do you know?
Planter_6, Middletown, CT

Uh, ménage à trois? Man, I don’t know when I said that. I be saying all kinds of shit, ’cause I be wanting to do all kinds of shit. I be high, y’all.

50 Cent has called you a “whore” repeatedly. Where is your comeback rhyme already?
Endlesslurve, Phoenix
Man, I have to call him and say thank you. He’s catapulted me. Nigga, white people know me now! Thank you! Diss rhyme? Fuck no! That nigga thrives off that. I am not feeding that tiger. I’m smart. Do you see his size? I’m small. I saw a YouTube video of this dude playing a concert; somebody threw water on him—he took off his hat, went in the crowd, grabbed that nigga and boom! I was like, This nigga’s the hardest nigga on planet Earth. So, no, I’m not dissing 50. And I’m not throwing water on him, neither.

You call yourself the Greatest Rapper Alive. Prove it: Can you make up a rhyme on the spot using the words doughnuts, koala and Conan O’Brien?
SufferFools, Modesto, CA

Whoever asked that is just as crazy as me. [Thinks quietly for a half-minute.] OK, I got you...
