Sadat X Interview - Dubcnn Exclusive!!

[jonathandubcnn]

Once again, we’re here to talk to another one of hip-hop's lyrical geniuses, Sadat X. In case you've been living under a rock for the last 15 years or so, Sadat X is the high-pitched, pro-black, ultra-lyrical emcee from New York who is a member of hip-hop's classic collective known as Brand Nubian.

Sadat X debuted with Brand Nubian in 1989, along with two other members, Grand Puba and Lord Jamar, with the release of their single “Brand Nubian”. The single's album was later released in 1990 titled One For All. That particular album, along with others, was encouraged by the teachings of the Nation of Islam. One For All in many circles is considered to be one of the more classic albums from Brand Nubian, including 1993’s In God We Trust.

Sadat X is widely known for his controversial lyrics with alleged homophobic content in “Punks Jump Up To Get Beat Down." His line, "I can freak, fly, flow, f*ck up a faggot/I don't understand their ways/I ain't down with gays" stirred up much controversy. Sadat X hasn't stopped with Brand Nubian though. He’s continued on doing his solo thing and helping in his community. In 1996, he released his first solo album titled Wild Cowboys, which featured artists such as Pete Rock and Buckwild. Sadat X’s latest album, Generation X, is another in the long line of dope projects from this legendary emcee.

Jonathan Hay and Chad Kiser sit down with the legend, Sadat X in this Dubcnn exclusive interview. Check out Sadat X at his official MySpace, and special thanks to Todd Davis for arranging this interview.

I was wonderin where the hell Sadat X went... Y'all remember The Lump Lump??? that was my jam...
Anyone got it???

[clackclack]

Not that i condone being gay, its fuckin sick, but i think its funny that someone who raps about Islam, in this day and age can talk shit about anyone. Sadat X is a faggot and will forever suck dick. I bet if someone talked shit about his queer ass religion and beliefs he would be pissed, but yet he feels he has the right to talk shit about others, HE IS THE FAGGOT, quit rappin and do the world a favor and put a hole in your own head. FUCK ISLAM and all that bullshit they believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has no place in this country(USA)
