Anytime D.O.C. does an interview, I try to make time to watch/listen. 

He's been talking about doing an album for some time now, so I hope it works out for him. He's had interest in using AI, but I don't think he's been pleased with the results so far. The naked track used a focused new voice, while the track from GTA is his post-accident voice.  It will be interesting to see how he puts it all together. He will have no shortage of artists wanting to work with him.
