I'm bringin back that True Skool hiphop. Good music. Good lyrics. No soda pop shit. My shit aint for little kids. Its for niggas that love to hear good lyrics and beats. That aggressive shit. I'm tryna bring back all the elements of music, not just rap. All this bullshit u hear on the radio now is not real music. I remember when music was music. The kids dont know about the drums, piano, flutes, horns, organs, etc. Real fucking instruments. They dont know that your voice is an instrument too! They need that. I'm hear to bring that back. Niggas can knock sampling if they want, but thats my kind of shit! I bring that soul, that pain, that blood, sweat, and tears! That Glory! That Gory Glory! jewelzmagazine: I FEEL YOU, I'VE INTERVIEW DIFFERENT ARTIST FROM DIFFERENT CITIES, HOW IS THE UNITY IN THE CHI NOW? sewamouf: I dont know, fam. I really dont know. I dont consider it no unity cuz EVERYBODY, AND I MEAN EVERYBODY(thats y I put that in caps) wants to be the fucking man. Not to mention, niggas dont support each other here. Dont get me wrong, its a lot of garbage niggas here, but its a lot of rappers, singers, producers, directors, actors, and dancers that got talent! But the people dont support they own. Our own fucking radio stations dont support us! Thats a fuckin shame! U go to any other city in any part of the country and you gon here their own artists. jewelzmagazine: I FEEL YOU ON THE RADIO STATIONS, NUT WHAT DO YOU THINK COULD BE DONE FOR AN ARTIST LIKE YOURSELF COULD DO TOGET ON? sewamouf: I just gotta keep putting out good music, placing adverisements in Magazines and online banners on different sites. Somebody will see that and sign me. I also need to shoot some videos and place them on the internet. I aint paying no station $3 to $5,000 just to play my joint once every nite around 2am. I cant do that. jewelzmagazine: WELOL BIG HOMIE I GOT YOUR BACK, YOU KNOW JEWELZ MAGAZINE HAS ALWAYS KNEW YOU WAS HOTT AND NOW WE CAN SHARE THAT THOUGHT WITH OUR READERS.

WE NEED OUR PEOPLE (HIP-HOP WORLD) TO START VOTING sewamouf: Barack Obama, of Couse. Thats a no brainer. But Hilary will win it. He's gonna b Vice President.
