I feel pretty much the same way as far as his responses regarding minmalist beats and the time it takes to write. Good interview.

Drizzle, mad props. That was indeed a great interview.

I still don't think his old shit with NE or Nightbreed was wack at all, lol. He bodied "I Got Your Heart", imo.

And then you get the pressures of society, ג€˜[hip-hop] thatג€™s a childhood dream, go get a jobג€™. You hear really condescending shit like ג€˜youג€™re still trying to learn?ג€™ We let that affect us. I got a job, he got a job, I got married, he got married. We just lived our lives.

But there was something eating at me, I felt like I HAD to do it. I was doing it quietly until my lady told me ג€˜you just need to do this, who cares what they think!ג€™ And thatג€™s where Iג€™m at now.
Some of the realest shit I've read in a long time from an interview. Props drizz, be honest tho son, you know you were geeked out to be in his presence. You're like his biggest fan on The :phila: .

Great interview. Very motivational for rappers who aren't 19. Makes me want to listen, those 100 times that he mentioned.

interesting development today, pitchfork reviewed ka (very favorably), within hours the vid for decision is up on xxl and vibe

maybe a coincidence, maybe not. i'm leaning toward at least one of them jumping to it after the pitchfork review and maybe the other following whoever got the idea first

Thanks to the forum for pointing this guy out, I noticed his name pop up in another thread, had no idea who he was. Checked the lp out last week and it was good, one of the tracks was on repeat for a while and need to check the rest out properly. I can see why the board likes him so much, he's dope. Different types of beats, similar to Roc, but I'm not knocking that, I probably listen to the same kind of shit 99% of the time so... I need to hear his other material.
