got that from westcoastrydaz.com forum
: Lil E would you like to tell us about yourself and where you grew up
A: Compton CA, same house my father grew up in, born and raised right there the same hood.
Q: What happened to your football career:
A: Before my last season in high school, I @#%$ up my ankle up again, I then got back into trouble in the streets, so I played it out my 12th grade year. but it wasnt for me school wasnt for me. It was too much, so then music fell in the hands.
Q: So recording is what your doing right know
A: Yeah exactly, yup
Q: While growing up who did who were your influences
A: My father and Ice Cube, that what I grew up to
Q: When people first heard of you, you were on Julio Gs old show and you said that you were going to put out CD. And after that it seemed that you were affiliated with DPG. Are you still cool with Daz
A: That right there was promotional as Daz helping put that out, but there were no ties with DPG. It was a record label from the start called Lil E Recordz. But I am doing my own thing which is Kings Of LA Entertainment, my own production company through Virgin Records. So hell nah, that all behind me behind me right know. But it wasnt with DPG though
Q: Tell us about your recording deal:
A: @#%$ networking, so I bumped heads with my nigga Pete Farmer, who me and him put the production company Kings Of LA together and then we networked through there and then got of the ground and I signed and know hes going to get @#%$ crackin, coming out next year
Q: Is the deal with Virgin what you were looking for:
A: Hell yeah, I got my own production company and I am doing my thing. Yeah it was a big motha fukkin deal
Q: Were there other labels bidding for you
A: Yeah there was, but you know its like I wanted to be my own and do my own thing and thats why I'm ?compilizing? my nigga Pete, so that how we doing it
Q: Tell us what we can expect as far a producers and guest appearances on your debut CD
A: As far as producing I have my own camp. I got a hot ass young producers that is on Kings of LA with me my nigga DL. And as far as features features, you know I am going to put it together NWA record, I got Bone-Thugs N Harmony, and basically this first album though is going to be kind slim on guest appearances . I am going to show them how I do it though. The NWA record and Bone records is a tribute towards my pops you know what I'm sayin but thats how I am holding it down, and other than that its me.
Q: Many people were saying that you were going to sign with Ruthless, what happend
A: You know its personal reason why I didnt sign with Ruthless. But mainly because I wanted to be my own man, you know what I'm sayin, so I branched off and did my own thing. Aint no bad ties or nothing my stepmother owns Ruthless, I dont know much at whats going on through there, I keep to myself and I have Kings of LA that I got to worry about
Q: Will you have any tracks with you late great father Eazy-E on your debut CD
A: Yeah, we have a nice one for everybody
Q: Is it the rumored Boyz in the Hood track
A: Not exactly, its a surprise. I cant give to much out. But its going to hit you all
Q: Have you spoken to Suge Knight, cause I know you had a track where you dissed him
A: Yeah he met with my folks, and we chopped it up here and there. So not to much to say and yeah and that was an old track and while ago.
Q: D o you yourself as the person who will revive the west coast. As the new leader of the westcoast:
A: Exactly, yeah.
Q:I know you did a song with The Game,"My Confessions", are you planning on recording with The Game again
A: We got a few things in plan to come together.
Q: D o you plan on putting out any mixtapes
A: We got a Kings of LA mixtape with my camp, and yeah I'm going to bless it on that mix tape, not to much, not to much, but I am going to give them another little taste of what I got.
Q: When can we expect the mixtape and will it be available online
A: Probably in the next month or so, probably sooner than that, and it will be available online.
Q: Have you spoken with DJ Yella, Dirty Red, Dresta.
A: Yeah I got good connection with them good relationship with them, exactly. They call and check in and show there love and support, yeah.
Q: D o you write your own lyrics
A: Yeah I do, yes I do
Q: D o you consider yourself and gangsta rapper or lyricist or will you combine them both
A: Yeah you can combine it, but more or so a gangsta rap level. But you can combine both of them, yeah
Q: What do you think of the lack of respect and coverage of westcoast acts
A: Yeah thats another point and issue I am going to put out through my album. And its something I to much dont like. Because you know what I'm saying, everybody got that copy cat trend in gangsta rap and the first thing they say is @#%$ the police, and not knowing where it really came from, so much luck it should be showing back on this side.
Q: What is going to be the name of your debut CD:
A:"2Eazy"
Q: Will it be a two disc
A: One disc, but I am going to bless it like a muthafukka
Q: Will you be working with Dr. Dre
A: Our ties have crossed here and there, and there will be a few projects we link up on.
Q: So there will be a NWA you will be working on
A: Nah, it a track on the album on my album. The whole NWA group is doing a track
Q: Back in the days these hip hop CDs that came out were classics. There was no need for the skip button. Will your CD be a classic
A: I am going to tell this its a classic my nigga , its a whole movement, its like a movie so aint going to be no skipping what so ever you not going to want to skip though it. So it has a whole movement to it cause I coming rapping it up with a movie with it too, later down the line. Everything everybody wants to know about Eazy, you know coming through my mouth, his son
Q: We can expect the movie later on in 2005
A: Yeah, exactly
Q: Any last words
A: Its time for a whole new movement in the westcoast. Its Eazy time
