REAL DEAL INTERVIEW

We got That Dude RealDeal in the spot... whats good wit you my G?

Shit man, just writing like crazy. Working on some big battles and this album bro. Trying to keep the blade sharp ya know lol.


For those who suck at life and dont know who you are let em know a lil bout you!!

I am the epitome of Pittsburgh man, blue collar and hard nosed. Battle Emcee/ Emcee/ whole bunch of other exciting ish. Jack of all trades I guess.


Im not even gonna lie... i am i fan u are a fuckin beast in ! u are in my top 5 in battle rappers in the world! what got you into battle rapping?

To be honest man I was always a fan of rhyming and fucking with people so it only made sense to put the 2 together ya know lol. As far as emcees go and the format I am involved with today man I'd say Thesaurus and Iron definately come into mind right off the bat.


Could you name your top 5 battle rappers?

Damn man thats tough as hell....Thesaurus, Hollow Da Don, Fresco, Math Hoffa, and Soul Khan. I think I look forward to these peoples battles the most but there are so many cats I can easily put in there too man like Dizaster and Aye Verb and......5 is tough lol.


You got anyone u really wanna battle?

Other than already scheduled battles and based on a high level of respect for them I'd say Okwerdz, Dizaster, Yung ill, Calico, and maybe a Rich Dollaz. It's not so much battling a smack style rapper moreso as getting a battle with a little more time to do some different styles and rap a bit more. All these cats would definately make me up my game big time.


I heard you and 9DM was a good battle what are your thoughts on that battle?

That motherfucker is an animal first off, and he makes ill ass music. I couldn't even diss that because I own "Lets Do Business". It was definately a chess match and a battle I know alot of people wanted to see for a while. He switched it up but I prefer the 9D that kills, rapes, and tortures lol.


I think u and 9DM would make a Great team and could take on anyone 2 on 2 what do you think about 2 on 2 battles?

Yeah me and 9D would be ill as hell. There would be blood lol. I personally think they are much easier to write for and alot more relaxed and fun. Plus with less pressure I think opens the door for a bit more freestyling. The last couple 2 on 2's that have dropped have been exceptional.


Out of all your battles what one did you like the most?and why?

I think probably Ex-I or Rugged. The Ex-I one because it was my first time battling in a crowd that size written format. The crowd and energy was amazing. Although the Florida crowd for me and Rugged was great too and had less people. I like the Rugged battle because I was able to get a rebuttal in as well. I probably had my best material for those 2 though.


I have also heard u are a real cool/chill person in real life why are you so mean in the battle ring? (i mean i know you cant be nice in a battle. but u be killin folks!!!)

I have so much respect for the people that do this shit man. The amount of time and money and energy that goes in to preparing for this goes under the radar. I am as big of a fan/battle nerd than anyone. Not to mention so many of these dudes are just cool ass people who like to drink, smoke, and fuck girls like we all do. I just don't see the purpose of mean mugging and presenting yourself as a douchebag for the sake of looking tough...too old for that ya know.


Thats whats up i have heard some tracks to! so you doin any mixtapes/albums what kind of projects you working on?

I actually have my sophomore album well underway and around the same time I'm gonna drop a cd of unreleased shit for free download. The album is going to be called "The Working Mans Emcee". I'm aiming to have it done by October. The Monsters in the Midway is available right now on Itunes and that shit is crazy.


If so who are you working with Rappers/ Producers ?

Right now I have collaborations working with Yung Zm, 24/7, Ex-I, Fresco, Sonny Bamboo, Poison Pen, 9DM, Diabolic and tons of other cats emcee wise...Also some prodcution from Ness Lee and Phillip Drummond.


Can you name your top 5 rappers of all time?

I was always a huge Snoop fan growing up. My personal favorites would be Snoop, Pac, Pun, Jay Z, and Em. Not really too shocking lol.
