Nice interview. It been a while since I listen to midnite hour...I gonna bump at midnite. 8)

Its true though what he is saying, for a westcoast artist, its hard to make it without going through the avenue of Dr Dre or snoop, compared to the Eastside, south, where there are loads of avenues. He should be manager of overseeing new talent, he's got good choices.

Exactly. I mean if you look at most of the major labels(like 98%), all the magazines, tv shows, they are all in new york. We really only have Dre...it's messed up that all of the new talent on the west gets held back cuz we only have one avenue...major disadvantage. I believe that is the reason why the west coast can't come back. Not becuz of the west coast sound...they been innovating it...changin it over the years...we been have more lyrical cats appear now...plus alot of the production on the east and south today are west coast influenced. It's all about the major labels...

I’m still young and I’m not going anywhere. The Regulator is here to stay. Believe that.

Some writer at Vibe is hiring more security and locking his door as we speak. :laugh:

I gave Warren 3 1/2 at AHH...hopefully that doesn't qualify for an ass kicking! ;D
Good to see that the album is getting mostly positive responses though...

NobodySmiling.com : With the success of '213' first album, The Hard Way, does the group plan on releasing another album ?
Warren G : Yea, actually me and Snoop talked about it the other day, We just gotta hook up with Nate and go grind it out. And once we do that then we’re going to kill the game again.
and hopefully warren produces on it this time!

NobodySmiling.com : Your latest album, In the Mid- Nite Hour, dropped back in October 2005, so what are the numbers looking like so far?
Warren G : To be real with you, I don’t even know. I didn’t even check. The company I’m on is an independent label (Hawino Records). The numbers aren’t humongous but they will grow.
Bascially.................you flopped nigga

There was an interview with the Lox (D block) a couple of months ago, and they were saying that the advantages of having an independent label is the higher percentage of the profit you get to keep from each album sale. they were saying when they were first signed they made such a little amount off each album like 80 cents or something in that region. also they were giving examples of people from the south making so much going through independent labels.though there are disadvanatges of independent labels like promotion, i think an independent label is the best suited for Warren G in the mean time, he has a lot more control , freedom and stuff, which i think he wanted because of his past experiences, Universal...

He didn't really have a choice. After his first album he was on the decline. SO if he went indy he would make a grip of money, if he stayed major he probably wouldn't of been recognized in the mainstream, and probably wouldn't make the $$$.
Does anyone know how much midnight hour sold?

that bullshit if they gave ROTR 2 and a half, that CD was amazing. This latest CD was Warren's worst IMO, so I think an average rating is reasonable. I hope he gets more promo rolling though.

" I only had one bad review and that was from one motherfucker at Vibe Magazine named Joseph something. I forgot his name but I can tell he’s a hater because he didn’t even talk about the record he just talked bad about me. And when I catch him I’m gonna beat his ass. Show him and he don’t know me, he got me fucked up. I’m not a violent guy. Don’t disrespect me because you don’t know me. I must have met one of his girls or something back in the day because with this fool, this is the second time he did this to me. "
This one I read because I wanted to see how bad he was hating on me. Seriously, if you read it you probably would have went off on him. Everyone who read it was like “who is this dude ?” . I had all my friends, peoples who wanted to get at this dude. But I was like you know what don’t trip cause I’m gonna see. I can come right up to his office and find him.
Out of everybody that interviewed me he’s the only one that gave be a bad review. Everybody gave it up to me. XXL all these motherfucker’s gave me double extra- larges. But the clown at Vibe Magazine. And I wish The people at Vibe would look at that shit and see that they don’t need that, we don’t need that motherfucker writing for us. I haven’t done nothing but great music throughout my career and he can kiss my ass. I‘d take the losses on that one because I’m gonna knock his chin backwards. He must have forgot I’m 6‘3". I’m not playing and I don’t play. But it’s cool though.
haha he sounds pissed.
