Stricc, you are one of the experienced battlers in the audio side with many championship titles under your belt. Will we be looking at you adding another one to your collection?

yeah definiteley fam, im gon get back in my hungry mode

Ight that's what I am talking bout. What advice would you give to the people who made the transition from text to audio and are entering their first audio GC?

just make sure that shit SOUNDS good, alot of people have dope bars but cant make em come to life,anybody wantin to be a audio battler should work on delivery, honestly i'd rather be mediocre and sound dope as fuck than be dope as fuck and sound mediocre

That's very very true. This year we decided that it's best to make this a 32 Man Invitational tourney. Do you feel like this is a good idea or did you prefer the top 64 qualifying system?

i think 32 is alot better idea,, 64 always turns out to be a cluster fuck and 2 rounds of weeding out all tha no-shows...this way tha tourney should be dope from start to finish

Word, I am glad you feel the same way. I saw you had a bit of a beef going on with Uhmazing on tinychat? Are you hoping that you'll get to battle him in the tournament if not who are you really lookin forward to battle?

im lookin forward to battlin whoever thinks they gon win, it would be fun to battle uhmazin just to hear tha excuses from him on why he lost....maze is asscheeks

LMAO harsh words, I hope this goes down. Alot of HOFers are entering this year but there are also up and coming MCs that are looking to make a name for themselves. Who do you feel can cause an upset in this tourney?

im not even sure who all is competing, i just know i aint tryin to hear it this tourney, i do feel that tha up and coming mc's dont have a chance with this one though, the winner will be a vet

Word Word....So excluding yourself name your pick to win it all

give me some names lol

lmao, RULE, Ticket, Jason, Phil Banks, M-Rock, Schematix and Man Down F Word to

if not me then definitely phil banks or jason....i'd say ticket but he been gone so long i have trouble believin he gon be in it,i hope it comes down to me and jason though.....shots fired!!! lol

Word that'll be a dope final no doubt. Thanks for your time stricc and good luck in the tourney

preciate ya

There ya have it folks. One of the best on the site and an MC who is looking to put another title under his collection further solidifying as a true future HOFer. All you up and comers better prove him wrong and bring your A Game cause this man means business



So Fame, congrats on posting up your first mixtape. What's next for you?

MORE MIXTAPES! I'm hoping to have another out by the end of April, then another some time in July... I'll probably chill on one then and create something epic for an end of year release.

That's that dedication right there. Alot of people are feeling your tracks but they believe that your battling game is rusty. Are you going to silence the critics?

I'll do my best to. I mean, The only battle I've really had in the past couple of years was the 3 round TinyChat battle against Rohaan aka FAME'S BITCH but in all honesty, I didn't even try to write anything decent for that battle. I knew I could win it with minimal effort. If I come up against an opponant of a higer calibre, I'll try harder. I still believe I've got it in me, though.

Damn you talk to much lol. I appreciate that fire. Any battles you are looking forward to hearing?

I like to talk, this is why I suggested we do an audio interview. That shit could have been played on the LB radio or some shit. Not that half the people would understand anything I say, though. As for your question, with this being an invitational tournament, there's a lot of great emcees involved. Battles involving 2 of the following emcees will be really interesting to listen to; Fiji Osa/Phil Banks/Jason/Stricc/Ticket. I'm not sure where Ticket has appeared from again but it'll be nice to see him back in the arena. I'd probably say Phil Banks vs Stricc would be the best battle that could come out of this tournament.

Damn son you giving me a headache...I think you covered everything here so final question. Who is your favourite to win this tournament?

Well this is the shortest interview of all time. A farvorite would be hard to pick for me with there being so many good battle emcees in the tournament. It could be any one of a number of people. I'm not gonna go down the obvious route and nominate myself for that spot. Ummmm, If I had to pick one name... Phil Banks. Other people who I could see taking this are AfterThought, M-Rock, Fiji Osa, Dono, RULE, Jason, Ticket and Stricc. Any one of those guys, but, I guess Banks would be my out and out favorite. Also, I have an issue to address... Why doesn't Stricc spell his name with a capital letter? Like, it makes me think he's tryna downplay his own importance or some shit. That isn't a good look for a rapper and needs to be fixed.

I am sure stricc will have something to say about this no doubt...thanks for your time fame and good luck in the tourney

Do I not get any last words?

Fuckin drama queen...go ahead

Not that I'm dying or anything. I'd just like to be able to say some more stuff...
Okay cool...Firstly, go and download my mixtape Next; My second mixtape is already in production so anybody that would like to get involved and feature on a song of mine, feel free to hit me up. Alternatively, if you have a project in the works and would like a Fame feature, I'm always down to put in that work. Also, I am running a Track Tournament which is currently in the sign up stage. If you would like to get involved, please visit the Music Lounge in the general forum or send me a PM for the details. I am also writing reviews on peoples music within that Music Lounge so if you have a project you would like me to listen to and review for a bit of extra promotion, please hit me up. My penultimate statement is simply; FUCK ROHAAN. Last but not least... MURDA... If you aint saying it gritty, you're saying it shitty.

One of the most entertaning LB artists and controversial figures is looking confident that he'll make a huge impact in the tournament. Show the man some love and download his mixtape and hit him up for track reviews
