Me personally, I just wanted to do that to capture These Days.With DAY-lyt.
AB SOULMe personally, I just wanted to do that to capture These Days.With DAY-lyt.
AB SOULI treat all my projects the same. They’re all time capsules of where I am at the time and what I’m thinking about.
AB SOULI think L.A. is L.A. I can go anywhere in the world and I’ll just say I’m from L.A. But when I’m there I gotta say I’m from Carson.
AB SOULMy main concern is making the connection with my listeners and making records that the whole world can sing. That’s what makes me happy.
AB SOULI really enjoy doing music because it’s a challenge to try to reach that frequency and connect with people and get them tuned to what you’re talking about. I definitely respect and enjoy that challenge.
AB SOULPeople always known me for rappin’. So I guess that maybe just hindered me, like “oh well, I mid-as-well go long term with it.”
AB SOUL[Positive mental attitude] is a practice, you gotta practice. I practice being still.
AB SOULHonestly I think it was gradual from the first time I came. It’s been a gradual thing as far as audience and response wise. I feel like I was conditioned for this type of impact.
AB SOULThere are a lot of people in this world that listen to wide ranges of music and there should never be a CERTAIN type of music that any artist should be confined to, in my opinion.
AB SOULI’ve been following battle rap for a long time. Me and Daylyt are real cool. We battled on my album, he’s on my album. We did a one round battle on my album and that was just me capturing These Days.
AB SOULI say ‘cuz’ around Bloods, and I say ‘blood’ around Crips…I’m twisted. Got Mary, got Lucy, got Molly: that’s wifey, girlfriend and mistress.
AB SOULI feel like battle rap is as popular as it’s ever been, today. With Total Slaughter it’s getting real popular.
AB SOULYou had to look at it as sales, as costumer service. Costumer’s alwasy right, you know? Service with a smile. Those type of things so it’s just kinda in me. In my DNA.
AB SOULI don’t even really understand that concept of someone being ‘smart’ or someone else being ‘smarter.’ I think that except for the obvious special cases, we’re all equal.
AB SOULEverything is written in my mind, more so due to my lack of vision at this point. After years of vigorous writing, it was more of a challenge to do it without paper or sidekicks. I enjoy a good challenge.
AB SOULI’ve been watching battle rap since that time period when Cassidy was hot, Murda Mook and Lux first when at it. That was a very pivotal time in hip-hop.
