It’s an honor to interview one of the hardest working rappers in the game; how is everything going in terms of your new albums that you’re working on? Well, right now I’m in the studio writing for my new collabos album that will be called Strangeulation, like how Strange Music has the industry in a chokehold. Still moving and grooving, you know? While your music has been generally accepted among the metal community before, thanks to using metal guitar tones and dark, sinister overtones. What inspired you to go ahead after all that time to make a full fledged metal themed EP? As you know, the name of Strange Music was inspired by The Doors. I’m a big Doors fan, without Jim Morrison, without Robby Krieger, without Jon Densmore, without Ray Manzarek rest his soul, I would have never called this Strange Music. We are all a strange individual in the hood. We’ve always had that rock energy; the first song “Tormented” on our first release Anghellic has a rock overtone to it. A lot of our music throughout the years, such as “Riot Maker” [from Everready (The Religion)] has a rock edge. For years I’ve been promising my fans the K.A.B.O.S.H. album, which stands for “Killing America’s Belief On Society’s Hoods,” because there was no belief that niggas can rock out like this [laughs]. I never did it because the band we were going to use had some problems at the time, so we put it on the backburner. So I did Therapy as an appetizer and if people like it, I will get together with the band and make a full album. I’ve been planning to do this for over a decade. The idea for Therapy was always there, but the way we did it with producer Ross Robinson on Venice Beach was a change of scenery and an overall change in atmosphere. It’s the change I needed to make this EP truly different from the “rock-ish” stuff I’ve done before. Thank you to everybody that was involved and Ross Robinson for getting those seven songs out of me, because I love them and everyone does too!
