Dubcnn reached out to West Coast pioneer Kokane, who is getting ready to release his anticipated solo album "Gimme All Mine" on June 1st, for in-depth 2-part interview. Last week we dropped Part 1, where we talked about the reasons behind him moving to Seattle and hooking back up with his OG partners Above The Law and Tha Chill for his new album. Spiritual as ever, Koka aka Jerry Long told us about his current mindstate, being a work in progress and dedicating his life to God. Of course he gave us details on his album, topics that he touches on and why this record is important for the West Coast and the remix to "Twilight Zone" with Crooked I.

Today we bring you Part 2, where Kokane tells us about his mixtape "On The Back Streets" with DJ Crazy Toones, his project with Kurupt "The 2K's", hooking back up with Snoop Dogg, the New West/Old West controversy, his take on Autotune and him getting involved in social networks such as Facebook and Twitter.
