Interviews
DJ Premier

posted November 8, 2010 / No Comments

It’s not every day you get to interview a true hip-hop legend, someone who has paid their dues ten times over and always held on to their core values despite the ever-changing musical landscape. That kind of strength and character not only made Preem’s signature drums and crisp scratches great but immortal, destined to live forever in the same vein as Miles Davis, James Brown and Bob Marley.

You’ve been grinding for a long time. Why has it taken so long for you to get your shot?

I think one reason is definitely politics. Politics is everything. It’s like high school. Everyone has there little clicks and crews and they all go to the same parties and events and also so if you don’t get in with them somehow its that much harder to grind

The D.I.P Agenda seems as though it’s been a long time coming.

It’s a long time coming. My last release was a couple of years ago. I’m so excited about it because we haven’t been in the stores, collectively, together, in a long time so this is a breath of fresh air to everybody. Not just for me, but for the fans too.

You recently released the As He Goes In mixtape. Are you happy with how that did?

Oh, the feedback’s been great. First off, I got lucky because the Buck 50 Kutter DJs volunteered to do it on the strength and those kids are amazing. Together, with them and with Rob Swift endorsing it the way that he has, we’ve gotten love all over the place with that mixtape.

Congratulations on coming up so fast in the game. Does it feel kind of surreal?

Man, it’s definitely been a journey and thank you for those wishes. It means a lot. It’s been a long, hard journey and we’re still on the road. We’re not even halfway there. We’re going to keep on grinding and making it bigger and bigger.

“For real though, I got the underground boss shit wrapped around my finger, not a rapper or a singer that’s quite as ill as I am,” Celph Titled proclaims on “Step Correctly” before threatening to “pop out your eyes and scramble them bitches next to the bacon in my frying pan.” Blending psychotic yet incredibly clever punchlines has kept Celph Titled as an underground favorite for years as a solo artist, member of the Demigodz and Army of the Pharaohs and as a frequent collaborator with Styles of Beyond and Linkin Park frontman Mike Shinoda.
