> Me and Grizz are about leave for this show. Crazy, right? We are the hip hop leaders we’ve been waiting for. Get a late pass sucka!

Jon Kennedy from the UK asked me to rhyme on one of his tracks in the summer of 2005. I slept on the beat for ever and never finished my verse. After hurricane Katrina, I was listening to the beat and noticed the vocal sample Jon built the track around “I left my favorite briefcase in New Orleans, playing all the bars intown, whatever the hell that means.” I swear I listened to that track 100s of times before, but it never clicked. Anyway during Ramadan of 05, I finished and recorded the track at Apex’s studio. Jon got the joint pressed, and now, finally, there is a DJ Eurok record on the lab. Take that Lab mgmnt!
