Episode 11, I didn't think we'd make it after our vainglorious DJ Premier 6-hour tribute, but with some much needed time-off --we're back. Apathy of The Demigodz joins us, and what was supposed to be a 20 minute interview turned out to be 75 minutes unedited. Ap gets personal with us, holding nothing back, while discussing everything from his come-up, the trials and tribulations of an indie rapper, being courted by Jimmy Iovine, signing with Atlantic records, being a Freemason, his production process, his mental health, his love for Don Mattingly, all the way to his future projects, including his collaboration with O.C., Perestroika. Of course, a Take It Personal episode has to include dopeness, so we've included music by Ghostface Killah, Shyheim, Kurious, De La Soul, Black Moon, Fashawn, Open Mike Eagle, Brother Ali and a bunch of slept-on goodies and new heat rocks to keep you entertained.

Listening now. Cool chat with the guy who's known for dropping the f-bomb every other sentence lol, Apathy is one of my favorite MCs out right now. I could tell it would be a good interview already.

Here's that Humanwreck project he mentioned, I don't think it's a fake Redman, the track listing says Keith Murray is a guest:

this mix is dope. good shit.

Yeah I think they were affiliated. Hurricane G was on the album too. But I got what he meant.

Thanks Ardamus!

Really enjoyed this. Thanks!

Is the DJ 360 remix of Back in the day available anywhere?

Maybe someday. I don't like giving to this place, when I realize how much you and/or your people don't respect me.

Then don't post things like

lol @ "your people". Now that I know that neither MB or Canada is mentioned in the podcast I can go ahead and give it a listen.

I don't know the whole story, maybe he was introduced through Eternia or something, but Apathy become sort of like an unofficial member to the whole Astral Majesty Creations crew, which included Nextraterrestrials and Mindbender's crew Supreme Being Unit. I have one freestyle with Apathy and Nextra somewhere, but I am not sure if any actual songs materialized from this connection. I'm certain this was around the time Apathy appeared on the Jedi Mind's Psycho Social album. What I'm more interested in is the rumors that Ap was a one-time member of Atoms Family, I would like that one verified.

I posted that after I was reading something in Curb Your Enthusiasm, then realized y'all took away my ability to post.

Either your mods are mental weaklings that can't deal with someone's opinion, or they are racist pieces of dogshite.

You choose the truth.
And then you realize why your people are in the wrong every fucking time when it comes to YOTMB and .

I got some great Hollywood and hip hop stories I WOULD share, if y'all treated me like a friend. Can you guys grow up?

I'm impressed, Un Kasa. All of this is true. Do you have the radio freestyle of Mindbender, Conspiracy and Apathy in the community college in Connecticut, tearing up instrumentals for an hour? That was an insane rap session.

I'll save the rest of the truth for another day.

Okay found it, the version I have is only 5 minutes unfortunately, and it doesn't feature SBU, I'll also post an old Astral Majesty song I have:

Apathy, Stubs, Mr. I-O & Aleus - Nextra Radio Freestyle 1997
https://www.sendspace.com/file/utmc26

Astral Majesty Creations - Combat Crew Jam

Some of that info I posted I got from the very old Astral Majesty website from back in the day, I remember seeing pics of Apathy with long dreadlocks hanging out with some guy from Alien Nation (possibly Naptron). I also talked to someone from Nextra about it (either Stubs or Aleus) a very long time ago. Also, if you got "Little Voice Inside My Head" by Nextra, please hook that up.

Respect.

Sadly, I don't have that Nextra song on MP3. It's on a old CD that isn't digitized yet... and honestly, this is the first time ever you've shown me respect, so... considering all the other times you've shit on me, I don't really feel like going to dig it up for you. But I do appreciate you starting to acknowledge the history of my friends and my rap legacy. I have my own story that is interesting enough to learn. And it's about time my story is told. Not many other people are as interesting. Especially considering that I'm one of the only ACTUAL rapping porn stars in the world.

There's less than ten of us in 45 years. I'm talking about people who have ACTUALLY RECORDED PORNOGRAPHY, and recorded good rap music too. There's Funkdoobiest, Treach, Too $hort, Coolio, Luke Skyywalker and Tupac Shakur. AND NOW MINDBENDER SUPREME.

(Bryan Pumper is kinda meh, and Heather Hunter was kinda meh. But peace to them still )

respect da gawd

I respect da gawd like CRAY

but I don't know if this counts as a rapping porn star

I've seen a Lil Wayne sex tape with 2 girls and him on a bed. He just lays there while two girls ride him. Lil Wayne doesn't count as a porn star, LOL.

Having a sex tape =/= being a porn star

KANYESHRUG

you gotta WANT your dick/tits/clit shown in public to be on this esteemed VIP list

This thread has kinda veered off course! Does anyone know about the guy that Apathy mentioned, Etcetera (Okktagon Zupreme)?

Apparently he was this incredible MC that was just smashing people in battles back in the day, found this song and he sounds something like Busta:
