..........................................................................................
 

dubcnn.com: First off, I wanna congratulate you G. Malone for landing the deal with Sony. That's a big step for you and the West at the same time.

Thank u very much homie. Hard work and prayers pays off.

dubcnn.com: Yessir. So when did you get the call about you getting signed?

Hahahaha About 2 months ago. I took so many meetings, and received so many offers I had ample time to make a good decision.

dubcnn.com: So they all approached you?

Yes sir

dubcnn.com: You got a Master P/Priority type deal over at Sony?

Somethin’ like that. My deal wasn't that incredible on the back end, I think dude was getting like $8 a record.

dubcnn.com: You're still getting a better chunk of change than others right?

Hahaha A lot more than others. hahahahaha

dubcnn.com: Nice That's what’s up. So what can we expect from Blu Division & Sony?

Lemme see. Expect the West Coast to eat, you can expect people getting’ really jealous haha.

dubcnn.com: Fuck it, let's jump into it. Everyone's heard the new diss track from Game "120." He had a bar or two in reference to you.

Yeah.. Heard ummm…

dubcnn.com: He said you were not signed to BWS.

I'm not.

dubcnn.com: And you misused the logo?

Now that's where things went a little weird at.

dubcnn.com: You were on their website as an artist. You did tracks together.

Yep

dubcnn.com: But, now you're not signed to the label and you misused the logo.

What happened?

dubcnn.com: To be honest El I don't have a fuccin’ clue. I think it was some confusion some where.

dubcnn.com: Have you spoke to Game at all?

Yeah I talked to Chuck.

dubcnn.com: Recently?

The day I heard the record.

dubcnn.com: So everything's still good between you two?

Of course. It has to be.

dubcnn.com: Maybe you can shed a little light on this: Lil E was on Shade 45 with Kay Slay the other day, he said something about Black Wall Street not fucking with Game, what was that all about?

I don't really know. I thought them dudes was cool. I seen Lil E on the Documentary, didn't seem like he had a problem.

dubcnn.com: Big Fase and G-Ride are managing you right?

Yes sir. Yep! And my brother Pooh Of Firing Squad Ent. Firin Squad stand up!

dubcnn.com: What was their take on Game's track?

Less see, they was wondering as well. But everything was squared away quick. It can't be a problem if his older brother manages me. Plus I got 1.7 Million things on my mind. Somebody gave this Watts niggga too much moneyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

dubcnn.com: So just to make it clear for the illiterate's out there: There are no problems with Glasses Malone and Game.

dubcnn.com: Hell naw man! I got money, only problems I want is girl and tax problems here. I want the IRS to be like “You made 100 million last year Why did we only get $100 in taxes from you?” haha. I want these ladies fightin’ over unzippin’ my pants like “move over girl its my turn.” Hahaha. Plus, the hood love me. Everybody hood, Bloods, Crips, Ese's. How can you hate G. Malone? He worked hard for everything. Never compromised his West Coast style. Kept it West Coast even in the presence of NY's finest. And they loved me.

dubcnn.com: That's whats up. That's what the West needs.

And I need the West Coast. The West gave me life. The streets! I'ma Crip, Bloods embraced me hard. It don't get much more West than that.

dubcnn.com: Let's get away from the beef subject for a minute What can we expect on Beach Cruiser?

Expect a masterpiece. Hahaha. Expect some West Coast heat.

dubcnn.com: Production?

I'm workin wit Cat and Warren. Already workin’ wit Warren Campbell.

dubcnn.com: How far is the album?

Its comin’ along. Maybe 25%. This is my movie El. My audio Movie. Flip ya lights off. Pop it in ya CD player and listen to a masterpiece unfold. Shit gonna be silly, too much heart and soul is going into each song.

dubcnn.com: That's what's up. So you're looking to hit the Straight Outta Compton, By Any Means Necessary, Amerikkka's Most Wanted ranks with this?

Hopefully greater. I want as close to perfection as man can get. As if God came down and did the tracks wit Jesus Engineering. Chuuuuchhhhhh! Shout out to my boy Bishop Lamont haha!

dubcnn.com: Can we expect him on the album?

Of course. Mr. Lamont, Mykestro, Ghostface Killa, Kam, Bun B, Scarface, Juvenile. Thats about it.

dubcnn.com: Scarface, Bun B AND Ghostface?

Yes sir.

dubcnn.com: That is a crazy line up

I already got a record wit Ghostface and Dead Prez for they shit. So Ghost just returnin’ the love.

dubcnn.com: How did that come about?

When Def Jam wanted to sign me, (Shout out to Jay Z Sorry homie for not doing the Def Jam thing) tha A&R was a kid named Patrick. Patrick played my stuff for Ghost, he loved it and wanted me on a record. Pat called me, I got it done.
dubcnn.com: When can we expect to hear that song?

I don't know, I didn't even ask for a copy. I was just so estatic.

dubcnn.com: How many West Coast cats can say they've collaborate with Ghostface AND dead prez?

Mannnnnn! I feel special already. Ghostface told me "Son, yo shit is hot!" That only comes second to Tony Lane tellin’ me I remind him off Mausberg.

dubcnn.com: Did you ever get a chance to meet Mausy?

Yes sir. Full coincidence.

dubcnn.com: Did you record?
