I grind hard most of the time, but I’m a lazy b*stard at heart. If I don’t have to sit in front of a computer and transcribe a long-*ss interview, that’s fine with me. Lately, I’ve been having my homie Big Clay videotape my interviews. He’s an ex-bouncer who used to smack people around for a living, now he’s showing a more artistic side (although *ss-whuppin’ can be considered an art form).

Anyway, here’s a recent interview I did with Capone-N-Noreaga at the W Hotel in NYC. This is the second time we’ve chopped it up. After our nice lil’ chat, we all took shots of some potent liquor called “Tiger Balm” or some shit. It’s like drinking kerosene, but I think it cleared all the tar out of my lungs.

Capone-N-Noreaga’s latest album Channel 10 is available now. For more info on CNN, check www.57thave.com.

This second one is uncut, unfiltered. An authentic Smoking Session between myself, producer Dame Grease and his artist, Meeno of Harlem World fame. We’re in the hood, no fancy record label conference room & sh*t.

Dame has a lot of sh*t poppin right now with his Vacant Lot imprint, the Max B. mixtapes, an Akon/French Montana mixtape droppin & Cocaine City dvds (he co-exec produces), so we got smoked out at Meeno’s crib and chopped it up.

All in a day’s work for one lazy brother.
