A.D.O.R.
A.D.O.R.Another Dimension Of Rhythm'I think Latin influence in hip-hop is not recognized as much as it should be. I was real cool with Kurious, I remember when Powerule first came out I used to like their music. All these cats contributed something to the music.'POSTED 01|15|2006
Eddie Meeks
Eddie MeeksThe Original Tenessean Don Dada'I’m willing to issue a challenge right now to all the majors to even have the courage to make me an offer. The only thing I would spend their little dollars on is marketing, promotions, payola, and touring.'POSTED 01|01|2006
Cadence
CadenceThe big interview'I'd love to be able to make a living off the music, but I also think having a life outside of hip hop gives me more to talk about in my lyrics.'POSTED 11|05|2005
Pacifics
PacificsAfter dinner talk'I came across this fried chicken recipe on TV and put a little twist on it to make it my own. I made it every Sunday before the guys would come over. It became a weekly tradition. So, we figured why not name the album after that tradition.'POSTED 11|05|2005
Parallel Thought
Parallel ThoughtYoung and restless'It's funny how some of our original beats still sound fresh today, because a bulk of our early production was scrapped. We were both young and learning the trade. I was samplin God-knows-what and getting drums that sounded like an obese bitch farting.'POSTED 11|02|2005
Lawless Element
Lawless ElementA vision of sound'You know, we met both Jay Dilla and Phat Kat through music. I been building with Kat for a while and as far as Jay, we just reached out to him and he was down. After the success of 'The Shining', we worked with Jay again and now it's all love.'POSTED 11|01|2005
White Shadow of Norway
White Shadow of NorwayRenegade of real Hip-Hop'It's like you just feel very different about NY after havin lived in it. One thing's for sure I might've left New York but it never left me. You can hear that my beats reflects a combination of what it's like in New York and Norway all in one.'POSTED 10|31|2005
S.S.S.
S.S.S.Slow Suicide Stimulus'Our drive for every set is to die onstage. Once the music drops it's like lighting a fuse and the world's most dangerous bomb. Anything can happen and usually does. We just love to b onstage with each other and I think the crowd can't help but feel that energy. 'POSTED 10|25|2005
Dagha
DaghaLaw of motion'With this being my first solo album, I really wanted to focus on the rhymes. I got a team of producers that are sick with it. It's hard for me to be efficient and productive when I gotta produce ?nd rhyme. I'm too much of a perfectionist. 'POSTED 10|12|2005
K Def
K DefGettin real live'We were forced to make the album in two weeks, and when it was finally done, World Renown was dropped including the entire black music division from Warner. Shortly after that, John Doe was on the run from federal marshals and it was over for World Renown.'POSTED 10|04|2005
