How often do you drink or smoke weed? Do you believe these things have an affect on your's (or anybody's) success? From an insiders viewpoint, do other mainstream rappers exaggerate their consumption of these things along with other things, mainly girls?
I respect a rap artist, like you among others (Nas, Aesop Rock etc.), who's songs rely on their voice to carry more of the flow and make the song fun or interesting to listen to rather than after effects. I see many 'artists' using an auto-tuned voice on a dry, boring flow that is riding on a super hyped, amazing beat. Are todays rappers relying too much on external help to make a radio-hit rather than raw talent, in your opinion?
It is awesome that in Walk On By, you mentioned passing up a girl instead of 'ending the drought'. You already had me hooked as a solid fan but that blew my mind. NO other rapper would talk about passing up any girl, shit like that is whats bringing up the new age of hip-hop. Young Sinatra.
Lastly, I have a request that may sound strange. Could you make a song completely free of cuss words, and basically anything a cynical parent could point out. I want to show my dad not all rap is about fuckin bitches and smoking weed. Even songs with a completely positive message he bails out on the first curse word, claiming it to a hoodlum rapping. I want to show him not everyone is like that, can you help me out? I have always wanted to ask a rapper that just never had the chance.
Keep doin what your doin, your an inspiration to all. #RattPack
