Interview with Magnif of Lawless Element @ the 31 third blog
http://31third.blogspot.com/
Lawless Element debuted in 2005 with their album Soundvision: In Stereo. Laced with guest appearances from Phat Kat, P. Dot and production from the late J Dilla. Although the guest appearances were from some of the hottest names in the D. They also proved that they could hold their own. They came back HARD with their mixtape "Lawless Gang vol.1". Of course if you like that soulful shit, You wont be disappointed. And in this day and age of wack rappers fucking up good beats, The clever wordplay bring you in and complement the hot beats. I downloaded it, to show my man'z some support, and been bangin' it all night. I got a chance to kick it with Magnif about his latest joint, and grinding in Detroit.
Q: What's good, Fam?
A: Whatupdoe
Q: First of all, As we know, you and Griot are cousins, when did you decide to come together as a group?
A: well me , Gee and my other cuz used to chill write rhymes and all that when we were mad young like on some elementary type shit, back in the day, it was just for fun . But I always stayed writing and eventually got into production as I grew older, Gee stayed writing and going to school, but we aint click on no rap shit since we were young, we was from the eastside and Gee moved to the west, so I aint see dude too often so when we did link up it was on some fam type shit, catching up. I stayed recording new material everyday, making beats,writing rhymes. I recorded like 2-3 songs a day on a four-track cassette recorder, started shopping material, getting attention from labels, managers, investors 'n all that. So I gotta a good label situation in place but I felt I wasn't ready for a solo mission so I reached out to Gee like let's take it back, and he was down.
Q: As you know it could be hard to get people here in Detroit to support Detroit artists. Do you feel like you had to grind harder here in than anywhere else?
A: Oh no doubt man, its hard out here. People wanna see you certified before they show love, they wanna know what label u signed to, who producing ya project before even giving you a real listen ... But I think its that way because the market is over saturated, you try to push ya cd to somebody but they aint tryna hear you cause they pushing they own cd, or they cousins or brothers or they niggas cd, so its like u gotta have something to put you above the pack, something that they baby mama sista's bestfriend brother aint got on they cd lol ... its fucked up but thats the reality of it
Q: Your style is reminiscent of the so-called “golden age” of hip hop (1988-1996). Who were some of your early influences, and at what age did you get into hip hop?
A: I was into hip-hop as far back as I could remember, my pops put me on . He used to bump everything from eastcoast to westcoast, the ol's school south shit, local shit like detroits most wanted, so I done heard it all from Rappin 4 Tay to Brand Nubian from C-Bo to Ill Al Stratch and everything in between.... but my main influences was from Nas & Mobb Deep, the rhyiming and production style was crazy and it was shit that I could relate to, real shit . Nas drops so many gems its ridiculous, I hate the criticsm he gets now days, the critics and internet heads really don't understand, he gives ghetto niggs hope, he makes music for the streets to relate to, uplifting poetic music
As far as production goes? DJ Premier is the reason I make beats
Q: My favorite track is "Heaters" which features Grand Puba. How did you hook that up?
A: Yea, Heaterz is my joint too. We linked up with GP through Babygrande, Brand Nubian was signed over there for a while, so that collab was a done deal , actually neither party reached out to one another, it was a suggestion from a label head at Babygrande, so we went ahead with it and Heaterz is the result
Q: Are there any videos planned from this mixtape?
A: Nah no videos planned for right now, unless theres a dope video director reading this whos down to shoot . holla at me
Q: Good lookin out on the interview, Before you dip, is there anything you want to say to the fans?
A: No doubt man, Stay looking out for new material from Magnif and the L.E.Crew, hopefully my retail release will be out before year ends (shits kinda hush hush right now) checkout www.LawlessElement.com hit me up, another mixtape dropping real soon lookout for that and download Lawless Gang Vol.1 shits ridic!
