Dubcnn spoke to West Coast raised, Phoenix representer, Hot Rod - the latest addition to the G-Unit Roster. We talk about his development over the years, growing up in Sacramento and moving to Phoenix, AZ, his influences, as well as the details surrounding him signing with G-Unit.
Of course we speak about his upcoming debut album "Fast Lane", which is slated for an early 2007 release, and the first single "Be Easy", which features Mary J. Blige. Hot Rod tells us about working within a collective of Hip-Hop superstars, and how he's handling the pressure of the high expectations people have for G-Unit releases.

Dubcnn: Tell us about your upcoming album "Fast Lane". Who produced on it?
I brought some of my producers with me man, that I networked with. I got a dude from H-Town his name is Lab Ox, up and coming producer. I got a cat named M-Rell, up and coming producer I worked with a whole lot. Also, cats named Soundsquad, I did a track with them. I got Rockwilder on the record, then I got Caddice and Shawn, they did the second single actually, they're some up and coming cats. The song is called "Chase The Cat", featuring 50 Cent. If you follow G-Unit's projects man, we always make names. We go for up and coming producers, we don't wanna stick to that tradition sound of the game. Everyone always runs to the big name producers, but we actually go through CD's and listen for just hot beats. So it's gonna be a lot of new cats you're going to see on the album, it's gonna be real hot.
Subliminal at Game ? :P :D

^^^You're reaching dude. Read the interview he said he's not focusing on beef... It's true that Game only had big name producers but to call that a subliminal is reaching..

Oh I just noticed the smileys, so I figure you were joking ;)

I'm startin to like Hot Rod. "Be Easy" was weak, but I'll listen for more songs before I make a final decision on him.
