Critical - I just did that Criminal Grind with the homie awhile back. I heard they even used that song on Dark Room Family movie soundtrack Smile Now, Cry Later (song: Evil Side Shit). I fucked with Mr. Sosa on a cut too for Sidewayz, but I dont think that record ever came out. Its been a minute since I seen that cat, last I heard he was in Texas.
Tomasjose415- The Northern Cal music scene is just what it is. I mean, I like some, I dont like some. I like all different types of music really. I think when people start to put more effort into thier projects so that they can put out a quality project, then we (Nor-Cal) as a whole will be better off. As far as my music, I'm on that new Teal Town Boyz coming out in Feb, and then the long awaited Enemigos is comin, digitally at first, then hard copies...
Young Demon - I may or may not re-press the old shit. If anything it will be available for digi-download in the very near future tho!!
Rusto- I grew up listening to oldies. To be honest, I really dont listen to alot of rap. I listen to people like The Escorts, Marvin Gaye, The Impressions, Brenton Wood, The Dells, The Delfonics, Leroy Hutson, etc.... I also listen to rock, new wave, pop, reggae, a lil of everything. You would trip if you were to see whats on my iPod. I dont listen to alot of rap cause I dont want my shit comin out soundin like some shit thats out there, ya know. So I steer away from some of the "noise" I hear on CDs nowadays. As far as RAP ALBUMs I grew up listening too, they were like Ice Cube, Too Short, Ice T, Public Enemy, BDP, NWA, 415, WC and the Maad Circle, Big Daddy Kane, etc....
Reckless- I spoke with Woodie over the phone, never met him personally. We conducted it all on the phone. What I can say about Woodie is that he was the ultimate professional and was about his business, his life was a great loss to the game.
Tomasjose415- Who influenced me to become a rapper, well all the rappers that were in the 80's and early 90's. I knew I could do that shit too, and tell it how it is from the standpoint of what I know, East San Jose. So I stepped out and made it happen.
THANK YOU ALL FOR THE QUESTIONS AND THE SUPPORT
