Exclusive Interview With Bigg Steele on DUBCNN

[Lil Jay]

www.dubcnn.com






Dubcnn sat down with Bigg Steele for an exclusive interview. The West Coast rapper gets into his upcoming album "Kunta Kinte Theory" and speaks about working with different artists for the album, such as DJ Bobcat, Polarbear, Jay Rock, Spit Fiya, Q-Unique of The Arsonists, Big Syke, Ne-Yo, and others. He talks about his experiences with reaching new markets in the world, for instance, charting in overseas countries with his two previous mixtapes, and touring the world. We proceed to talk about the state of West Coast Hip Hop, such as new artists getting deals and radio stations (not) supporting their own artists.

In related news, Bigg Steele has just been named Head of Urban Music for Minder Music Publishing, which means he'll be sitting on the other side of the desk and giving the deals instead of asking for the deals. Ain't that a bitch!

Nice interview man, I'm looking forward to hearing that "Federal" track.  Did you ever end up getting Cube on it?

I think that Federal track didnt even make the album due to sample clearances, so I doubt they got Cube on it. But I'll let Steele answer that one himself.
