Hey, thanks a lot for taking the time to do this interview. For those people out there who might not be familiar with Mastamind do you want to give a brief overview of what it is you are about?
As the Mastamind ‘of Rhymes’, I am all about the music, the words, the feel of a record.
As a member of Natas, I have helped Esham pioneer this form of rap music we call Acid Rap- The Wicket Shit.This year you re-released ‘Lickkuidrano’ what inspired you to re-release this and how does the re-release differ from the original?
The rights to Lickkuiddrano were sold to Golden Glair records, then they came to me about making it a full album. It was actually completed in 2007. It has the original six songs plus six new tracks and some remixes from the Hellrazer album. Just glad the fans finally get to hear it.
You are also about to drop a brand new solo album ‘The Ultimate Price’ what is the reasoning behind that title?
The Ultimate Price is all about what people would do for success and the finer things in life. Just asking the simple question, what’s YOUR price?
How would you say this album differs from your earlier work?
This album is much more insightful, intense, polished. I hope the people can hear the hunger and the pain. When I was 22 years-old spitting the wicket shit, I barely knew what life was about, didn’t know how to dig deep enough in my soul as an artist. The Ultimate Price is the album I wish I could have made from the start.
Are there any guest collaborators on this album?
Nobody’s on my album but Skitzo. All I need is real people with me, doing great work. I reached out to a few artists, but they showed no love, fuck ’em. Full speed ahead.
