DUBCNN: Sir Jinx Talks To Dubcnn! Interview Part 1.. (Ice Cube/Xzibit/Dre)

[Chad]

Today, Dubcnn sits down with the Game Warden, the infamous Sir Jinx! Known as a producer on more than a few classic albums like “Amerikkka’s Most Wanted” and “Death Certificate” for Ice Cube, and the “40 Dayz & 40 Nightz” album for Xzibit, as well as being the cousin of that other well-known west coast producer known as Dr. Dre, Sir Jinx commands the respect of both the old school and new school heads. In Part 1 of this exclusive interview, we talk about the obvious subject of Ice Cube, his relationship with Xzibit, the direction that west coast rap is heading and much, much more!

Wow, that was a GREAT fucking interview Chad, on some real shit, that was a great read can't wait for Part 2.

[The Predator]

But a lot of that stuff with Cube, I really wish we could go back in and remaster that stuff, and do it in a time of now because that era is over. We definitely need to bring that music into the digital form. I might like that music a little more, due to the fact that that music is not clear. The Xzibit music is more clear because technology was more advanced later when I started working with Xzibit.

Is that not what record companies have been doing with all these old albums being 're-mastered' they been putting out?

[smp4life]

[Dre-Day]

Dubcnn: To expand on those thoughts, in your eyes, what’s the state of west coast hip-hop and where is it going?

Once the west coast realizes that hip-hop is its own vehicle, and not a vehicle for gang-banging, not a vehicle for ho-ing, not a vehicle for pimping, but a vehicle for itself.

Dubcnn: They say Dr. Dre don’t reach back and help the west, but what…what am I trying to say here? I mean….

I know exactly what you’re saying. With Dre we just need to re-invent the wheel, and sometimes people don’t want to do that because it takes too much. But that’s Dre’s procedure in looking for artists. There’s a whole bunch of other people that might have a different procedure dealing with the music industry. Dr. Dre and that empire has been going on for the past 20 years. For somebody to come in and think that they’re going to change that, there’s just a difference. We got to go through the same thing that he went through. Somebody say they want to change the game, ok, give me the same superman outfit. Don’t ask me that same question without a lawyer; without an accountant; without a publicist; with out some money! He had all of those to start that. So, you can’t break that until somebody else has that to offer to an artist that’s trying to raise his daughter. We need another investor and that type of empire. You can’t make no Kobe over night. Dr. Dre is a Kobe. That whole environment is. Most athletes can’t even talk to Kobe; they don’t even get along with him. Why? Because he’s different! And he’s better! Duh!

that's the truth right there.
