pfxmg: I've heard you first started to wear your mask because you were
wanted by the police and needed to hide your identity. Once all that
blew over, you decided to reveal your face. Is that true?
Ghostface Killah: Nah, fuck that. I started to wear the mask because
my name is Ghostface Killah, man. I got that name from Mystery of the
Chessboxing, a karate flick. Yeah, I was getting my hands dirty back
then. Nigga do what he do. But, you know, Ghostface Killah sounds like
a man who should have a mask on.
prfxmg:Lately you and many other East Coast artists have been
criticizing Southern hip-hop, in particular songs such as "Laffy
Taffy."
Ghostface Killah: Man, that's all y'all be talking about lately.
Playing devil's advocate, do you think it's because New York is
jealous it lost the hip-hop crown?
Ghostface Killah: New York lost the crown because the New York deejays
gave the crown away for some fucking money. New York be bullshitting.
Right know, I say fuck New York. Yeah, I'm from New York, but fuck New
York. Because niggas is pussy. They is so quick to jump on the next
man's dick and can't even deal with what they got in front of they
face.
That's why I respect other states, man. New York, I don't know -- for
some reason we started to get really soft. And now we act like we want
that real hip-hop back, when our fucking deejays is only programmed to
play what they playing. They playing more other people's shit than our
own shit. Niggas is screaming that real hip-hop -- we trying to bring
it back but we can't even play that real hip-hop on the radio.
I knew New York was wack when they shot my man Amadou Diallo forty-one
fucking times and ain't nobody stand up. But if that shit happen in
L.A. somewhere, they would have went to bat for Amadou Diallo. It
would have been hell. Stores getting burnt the fuck up. New York don't
stand for nothing. They say if you don't stand for something you will
fall for anything. But we mad at ourselves and can't even get our shit
right. When you look at them other niggas' videos, they popping off
and having fun in there. We can't even have fun amongst each other in
New York. That's why I say fuck New York. That's real talk coming from
Ghostface Killah.
pfrxmg: that's that New York state of mind.
Ghostface Killah: Nah, that's my state of mind.

i hope the interviewer felt like a jackass, but damn thats a good interview

That was a nice read.

same shits happening in cali. djs and radios arent playing anything local. its all south and east coast shit.
-
Ya but you dont hear any Cali rappers saying "Fuck Cali" ect......I think what Ghost is saying is only making the situation worse....Saying "Fuck New York" isnt going to help his cause.

To be honest, Im not even feeling much coming out of NY right now.....Mobb Deep's album was so so, not listening to anything G Unit at the moment and I feel Bustas new album will be a dissapointment. Never been a huge fan of Ghostface either....I listen to his stuff abit but hes not putting out shit I was bump all the time. Papoose is dope but hes just doing the mixtape shit so they aint gona play his stuff on the radio. LL Cool Js new album is WACK. Jay Z and Nas are gone (for now)....
So yeah, right now Id rather listen to the South and West anyways
-

You checked out Fishscale? 'Cause that shit is off the chain.
