Cats that follow my music know that im fuckin wit my boy kdot hard right now trying to do this CT underground mixtape real big out here and he thinks im one of his promising acts with a lil work and tweakin he tryin to put his whole machine behind me.
So basically we did this lil interview im bout to actually go on a photo shoot in 2 weeks for tha next 1 its gonna be crazy what do u think?
So We here wit Young Efdub self proclaimed illest female emcee in Connecticut.
In case this is your first time viewing our publication, welcome to CT Underground status.
Basically we are a publication out of CT probing all of the underground talant in the area and introducing them to our readers and the public. You now rockin wit Kdot Steeze and Efdub an interview that promises to impress we will address her past projects current projects beef and motivation. Plus we will get into how it feels to be a lesbian emcee in a industry that is very homophobic and much more. Where You from, what you rep?
Come on man, you already know its CT all day what kinda question is that? I rep that 203 EAST SIDE stand up U-P forever.
Is it a problem with other parts of Stamford or CT?
Come on man, its not a problem CT is my home Im good in Stamford, Da port, new haven wherever im good aint a problem.
First thing first, You claim to be the illest female emcee in CT. What About Rain? Shes got a crazy buzz in CT
Well, I actually sent her a message on myspace offering to battle her cause -----s feelin her but i got no response from her and i dont know if its because she doesn't manage her own myspace page or cause she aint wanna go there. I don't no but i got a more poetic r&b soulful feeling from her anywayz and im mos def not that lol.
Aii Aii..So what are you trying to do. You got people listening now what is next?
I Been rappin since i was in the 5th grade. I been writing all my life i love writing and creating im just trying to be herd. I want people to recognize that it is mad talant out here in CT and we ready! Not only are we multi-talented -----s produce dj and rap and put out they own shit from our basements like its a movement foreal and everybody independent
Im just trying to get the world to see that CT is doing it too everybody gotta wait for they chance to shine im trying to throw us on da map
You are a real graphic emcee not very lady like at all. Where does this aggression come from? Or is this just a image you crafted to make music?
Ha thats a good question man. Well imma keep it funky im dark skinned. When i was young i got picked on, that was the spark. I wasn't that cool either as a youth a square type chick. Boys didn't like me nothin like dat i was always alone type doing my music and shit. Music was like my best friend growing up.
I was always creative and shit and then i got to like middle school and all my friends they are selling weed as well as smoking. The shit is new to me all i know is they got new sneakers like every week fly clothes and i wanted to get on. So first it starts as you playin in da shit for sneakers and free smoke then it get to da point you get wrapped up in it. Now you need it, now its ya life.
Now im 22 years old i been in tha game for so long and i aint got shit to show for it. Yea i'll go cop a chain or whateva some kicks get fly but as long as i been in da game and all da work i don put in i should be coastin u feel?
I got you..
So I get on da mic and i get to beastin about my life. Shit i do, shit i see shit i want shit i need how i want shit to be. My issues whatever da fuck i feel that is what i say. Im just an aggressive person
Thats Funny Cause I know you Mo Like foreal and you are a girl. I Remeber you seen a skunk and screamed type shit and they way you act sometimes be mad girlly like..lol
I mean im still a female i know what i am i never try to be a ----- or front like i am. Shit i know im a girl wit a pussy and tits but don't get it twisted im not soft i'll bust ya head and for women you gotta be extra hard wit it cause we already have no respect in da game due to the likes of lil kim and others lol.
Aii. So everybody is feeling two of your songs in particular. That Prices On My head To Start and I Love Hip-hop. Please tell us about those 2 tracks and what you were feeling when you did them.
AWW MAN Okay okay, that prices on my head was maybe some of the realest shit that i have ever written only because that was my heart and soul on that beat. I was in love with that girl and for her to leave me after 3 and a half years to be with someone i thought was my boy that shit hurt me to the point i was lost for a real long time. Shit my heart was in a dis array and everything was fucked up. So at first i did a track just a lil freestyle on da Shareefa shit I need a Boss joint and i went at Wallace. It wasn't even me going at him I was just spitten then my heart threw a shot at him.
He came back sayin it was trash blah blah and he "threated" to come out with a track of his own so boom i dropped Prices On My Head so he couldn't say shit else after..
Did He?
Nahh lol But that I Love Hip-Hop Shit i was feeling like damn man da game is fucked up yo. Does anybody in the game love the game for the music anymore or is it all about the money and the ultimate gain at da end of the day. When i wrote that shit it was like everything around me was garbage and nobody really cared about the music no more
Okay I Feel You Mami, How many Mixtapes You Got Out?
I got that Fuck Errybody prt1 Crackpippe on da tables I got Fuck Errybody Prt2 and 3 out and 4 is going through constant changes. I don't no how its gonna sound yet but i have recorded LOTS of music for it. I also have 2 albums. my first one my baby Understand and the second one Understand More. Mostly produced by me thats when i made beats lol. But yeah man -----s don't no i put it word lol
Aiii Aiii So Whats Next For You?
Well right now im being a lil disloyal to da pen. Im trying to do a little bit of everything trying to manage talent trying to book events im trying to do everything man. Im just built for the industry i believe it needs me
The industry is very homophobic how do you expect to break from the underground?
Im just going to keep doing me man. I can't change da fact im gay and i like eatin pussy lol. It is what it is man you can't deny my flow, you can't deny my style you can't deny me lyrically you know im nice. So why would u say some shit bad about me cause im gay, thats stupid. Half of hollywood is gay, i just choose to be open about mines.
My sexuality motivates me because their can be a little lesbian girl growing up just like me. On da block just like me, rap just like me, an outcast just like me. I gotta tell my story cause im not the only person that can relate to it. The world aint perfect and i guess homosexuality is one of its imperfections however im proud of what i am and im going to always be open about it.
If i can't get beyond where im at and become a icon in hip-hop so be it i will never change.
Thats real T..So Who U Beefin Wit Mo
Man "Mo" Is beefin wit nobody im calm cool and collected ya undadig lol and "Ef" is actually beefin wit nobody either.
So You In Da Studio Hard with Ready For Distribution. Tell me the motivation behind that title.
Because i am. I have everything you need. The voice, the brain the look the mind everything you need im so ready for the industry lyrically i can go bar for bar with anybody in da game real talk.
Plus i write my own shit, come up with my own shit i don't ride nobody coat tails im ready for the game just let me in that bitch. And the reason tha album is taking so long is because when it comes out it has to sound as strong as the title suggest and i havent gotten that type of material yet but its coming believe me
So what is with the flood of tracks you provide from forum to forum all over the net?
I do it so they can get ready for the serious projects. So they can listen to the lil crack packets i put out and be like dayum shortie fiyah. Then when i put tha whole ki on da strip they loyal buyers u feel me?
Plus most of these -----s be dj's or producers so not only am i gettin a fan but i be gettin even more connections cause a dj listen to da shit go crazy he tell his boy a producer listen go crazy i get free beats i mean its a crazy pay off postin rhymes on da net.
Plus the elevation is crazy
Anything Else?
U p stand up we ride all day holla at me to get ya face numb.
