Music is forever changing.
Hip-hop is not going to be what it was 15 or 20 years ago. Everything
changes. There are different sounds, different dances. But at the end of
the day, to me it’s all about the lyrics.
Hip-hop
started with street poets with great lyrical skills, and that’s what
hip-hop has always been about for me. If you hear people talking about
the Golden Era of rap they’re usually talking about the early-Wu Tang
Clan era. And then Nas and Biggie and so on. But for me it goes back to
the 80s — 1986 to 1989.
