As a lot of you may know, Intrinzik will be putting out a new full length album in upcoming months. This is his first solo LP in five years, and in support of the project he interviewed with us. Now this is a long interview with a lot of information, and a real inside look into the Underground Hustlin’ camp. After a moment to get to our main topic, his ‘Real Time‘ album, and what he has in store for us.
“..At first it was going to be like a farewell album but once I penned the title track “Real Time” I got a very strong desire to stay in the game. So you will have half of the tracks reflecting back on my career and wanting to quit being a rapper and you will have another half of the album which focuses on controversial topics and inspirational stuff. It is a pretty schizophrenic album…”
‘Real Time’ is scheduled to be a 12 track album, and is being co-produced by Sicktanick and C4. When I asked him about features, he stated:
“There are very few collabos on this album. This time around I didn’t want to rely on big names to get attention, I wanted to give some shine to the UGH artists I enjoyed over the years. I have a song with Genghis Ganj, Sick[tanick] and Raz[akel], Insane LOC and of course McNastee. I also have a chick named Yael doing a sick hook for a song called “I’m Done.” A lot of the songs are so personal it’s really hard to add other people to.”
Also in support of the album, there is an IndieGoGo campaign running. There are various levels of contribution, ranging from $5 to $1,000, all with a great prize package. For example, for any aspiring artists out there, there are a few options between $200-300 for collaborations. You can peep the campaign video below, and visit www.tinyurl.com/INTGogo for more info.

Also in the interview, he gives us a detailed history of Underground Hustlin, starting from its roots and its evolution to where it is now, and its plans for the future.
“…I always say that this is the beginning of UGH. We are expanding in so many ways now and will eventually have a TV show and a DVD series. Along with the services and compilation we have now, UGH is going to expand massively. As our artists become more and more well known we will be able to pull from our recourse pool to have our own hosts and tour headliners. I see the UGH compilation as a farm series for the underground. I see it every day…these artists are the future and its obvious…”
