It’s an album that representing Kon Artis as individuals, our growth as individuals, with us being solo artists in a group within a group, we’re trying to step out from under Eminem’s shadow, so to speak….

Yep, him, and we got a verse from Bug, who was one of the founding members of Kon Artis, and we got Obie Trice, B-Real from Cypress Hill…..

It’s a lot of growth in song content, the material is easier to cope with. Everybody can’t cope with poppin pills, you know, we had a lot of hippies and shit, this album, of course we still having fun, we a fun group of people, we don’t really care about what’s going on in the industry, you know, as far as the monotony that’s going on right now, everybody trying the 50 Cent way, or Lil’ Jon, we of course keeping that whole thing of breaking the monotony.

It’s a breath of fresh air. I think they’re being smothered with a lot of the same stuff. I think when people do their records nowadays, they look for that first song, and like, I go thru that right now, and I have an artist. Young Zee is my artists, and right now he’s got like three or four singles, and I not totally happy with the project yet to bring it to the public yet. A lot of people come out and they got this cute lil 20 year-old kid that’s talking gangsta with his pants down, hanging off his ass and they think, you know, he got one song and that’s gonna establish him as an artist. I think people missing that. If you take that and add it with the label just caring about the one song, then you just got a bunch of singles and not really a good album. Everybody is talking about they different because they wearing they hat to the side, or they wear a cast, but that’s not different. What are you doing that’s different from anybody else?

"When I got that plaque, it really, really made me look at things a little different. Not like [I'm] having a big head, or arrogant, or nothing like that. It just took me a long time for it to hit me when everybody said, or when I see on TV: 'No. 1, No. 1.' It was like, 'Come on. Get out of here. You gotta be crazy.'"

"Eminem, he's the CEO of our label, but when we're in the studio, creating songs, he's not the CEO. He's a group member,"
