[crispinfrancis1]

i hate my job

[051290ma]

At 0:06 GZA was like lets wrap this shit up I dont wanna be bothered by this nigga LOl.

[superugly75]

SLICK AND THE GZA.........

[poppajah]

gza straight up owning the interviewer. 

[MaxRead94]

See how much love Rick and GZA had for eachother? Learn.

[ffeda]

Man I love honesty on his face, and being real and not the poser like them other dudes these days...

[XxXShaggsXxX]

i just wanna sit and listen to him talk man, such an honest insight on everything

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

@NaS023 I know what you are saying but dont say GZA has swag. That is afaggot word.

[Likety]

I almost screamed like a little girl when Slick Rick popped up.

[Keeheek]

i like how he encourages people to get jobs and work. refreshing.

[NaS023]

Take a look at Gza's attire young-ins; that's what you call fresh, that's what you call SWAG.

[Kubiak04]

1 eyed slick rick fosho

[Tripo1iSamson]

actually seems like a pretty cool guy, shit

[joronamo888]

listening to this interview is like listening to liquid swords. He raps about all this shit in ths album, the interviewer should just listen to the record because it answers all his questions.

[bombcaryah]

@joronamo888 damn man thats not just any interviewer thats tom byron!!! he is a legend in the adult movie industry!! gza and tom together could make a real impact in this world<<<<<<<do tha knowledge man

[genek121]

fuck hes a legend love the fact he wasnt into hustling and worked hard

[polychromia]

That part where he's talking about working train stations in the wintertime... sounds just like the kind of thing that would inspire him for "Cold World."

[eentrouc]

I like his honesty! He didn't portray himself as a drug lord! He was honest about who he is and where he has been! He is being real, telling the parts that are not so glamorous like working nine to fives, who couldn't identify with that. That's why i will always be a wu tang fan!

[jonnyinglewood]

ahahah the interviewer is so white hes like ´gee wilickers! 4 years! gosh thats like college!´ WUTANG SUUUUUU

RIP ODB DIRT MCDIRT

[drewsky112]

what is this shit about biggie overrated? have you listened to ready to die? have you even listened to a biggie freestyle?that shit was dope. i think that wu -tang clan, nas, big l, and biggie were fucking amazing, and this "hiphop" shit nowadays is no where near the talent there was in the 90's? remember when you actually had to think about what the lyrics in a song meant?

[sheptropremix]

Biggie is over-rated. People like him get alot of credit, and others don't get shit. Del Tha Funkee Homosapien, Inspecta Deck, Big Pun imo are above Biggie lyrically. Biggie is great. No doubt about that shit, i would never be dissin my nigga like that. much love to biggie rip. But i'll admit it him and pac get alot of credit, which i suppose they deserve it, but the fact that so many other rappers who are just as good, get nothing in return Thats when its alright to say they over-rated

[drewsky112]

i understand what you're saying but i don't think over-rated is the right word. i think that while there may have been rappers that were as good or better than biggie, none of them had his charisma or his appeal and that's what made them different.

sometimes rap isn't all about the songs, but also the message

[RealHipHopTunes]

biggie got famous because of diddy

[YoungDirtyCwalk]

yea man, I got this old jedi mind tricks album "the psycho-social album" from back in '97, and if I really wanna know what he's talking about I even gotta do my research, most of the MCs were damn complex back in the 90s

[walmartian555]

so true and now its all about moey money money pussy money money wee money pussy..................ugh what else oh yeah money

[gza333]

three man in interviews talk like really men: masta killa , inspectah deck , gza

[HaT223]

Excellent interview.

Slick rick made it even better lol

[freakofmusic89]

GZA and METHOD MAN are the best

[chaaoos]

I think there was a time, RZA talked about it I think in an old interview, when they were recording Wu-Tang Forever GZA wasn't really on it much 'cuz he was in a bad place in his life. most likely just caught up in a little too much of the substance. that's why GZA wasn't really on Forever that much.

[chaaoos]

damn, lookit that chain. Rick da Rulah!

[bulleyoh]

GZA is my favorite emcee.

[N33NJAH]

top 5 mcs of all time:

1) Nas

2) GZA

3) Eminem

4) Biggie

5) 2Pac

[HipHop4alivin]

Lol Eminem, Biggie, 2pac to way overrated!!

[N33NJAH]

biggie overrated? ur out of ur mind

[HipHop4alivin]

Biggie is the least overrated of 'Em.. He's a lil bit overrated there's many Mc's, that's more talented than him..

[killabeez108]

word up inspectah deck, gza, meth, and nas are all better than biggie!!! WU TANG FOREVER

[heavilycharged]

i agree man

wu-tang a lot better

[jackshirack2]

Eminem? What about groups like black moon n fab 5? smiff n wessun? fuck eminem

[2pacslifegoeson213]

fuck eminem fuck you

[Johnoid]

goddamn man GZA is awesome. the best part of the interview is when Slick Rick drops by and the dude asks if he remembers him and shit, and he's all sincere to the dude and shit. I know nowadays rappers would be jerks and shit and completely punkd this dude, but he and the GZA aint like that. They're actually down to earth dudes. Idk that kinda stuck me for somereason.

[mxpassion17]

cool interview, haha.

[Mike828828]

GZA doesn't do any drugs your all wrong. He used to drink and smoke but he has a family now...trust me I know. He's mad lyrical without blowing trees

[thebluegays]

yea i heard somewhere that he quit smoking weed a while back

[Mike828828]

ya, thats rigt he doesn't do anything anymore my friends opened for him he rocked a few shows in my city, he's just chilling now, everone blazed after the show with him but he explained why he quit. GZA da gawd, peace

[JPVW2342]

Once Slick popped in the interview got so much better.

[GrimlockDinobot]

I think he smokes weed

[swordswingin101]

nice GZA is the G.O.A.T.

[DTSDISP4]

the nigga Gza use to be security guard at target, wanted to know if i bought his CD. I WAS LIKE HOMIE, THEY AIN'T GOT NO CD OF YOU UP IN THIS JOINT. shyt got madd ugly son, word up.

[FoxtheSxy]

lol

[wutang1024]

GZA is too fucking cool. I'd smoke with the GZA before anybody else, even meth

[shaamshaam]

hohh man slick rick orlls through! damnnnn

this interview is nice

GZA IS FUCKING LEGEND

Do the knowledge!

[spectergohan]

gza is probably the most interesting and real interview-e I've yet to see

[ultrapandaa]

hell yeah, all the wu tang clan members are cool. the way they portray themselves in their music is an exact reflection of who they are in real life. i met most of em in hawaii

[amratheblack]

fucking finally.

[MrFrankBullitt]

Put in the work first.

[IgorSavtchenko]

Slick Rick dropping by is icing on the cake. : ) Great interview with a great artist. If any of you want more, there is an hour and a half audio interview with GZA out there. Just google "GZA interview." Peace.

[yeahwhatownedburn]

nice to see a rapper for once who just tells his life like it was and doesnt feel the need to make up bullt shit stories and brag about how many times he got shot and how many drugs he sold, cuz those stories are old and no one gives a shit.

GZA owns

[milky1041]

living legend

[wutang1024]

All these Wu dudes are twice as fucking hardcore as any rapper today, but 10 times fucking cooler

[viraj01]

gza the genious

[peticco]

gza is a man

[btv20]

sounds just like he raps
