Shia LaBeouf Interview on Directing The Cage Video

[heysakuya]

Wow some of you are really harsh. I had never heard of Cage until I caught "I Never Knew You" randomly on VH1... I'm so glad I did. The video and song are great. Shia LeBouf or not.

[lizzy384]

i love cage.

respect him.

love of my life

[thekillerqueens]

@lizzy384 wtf.... i love you.

[destro203]

how awesome would this video be if cage just turned and blew shia's head off!

[Roikoss]

Cage movie = the new 8 Mile lol

Nah but seriously, I would love a Cage movie. Huge fan and I love his music. And his story on how he got on his way to underground rapping would be sweet to see in a film.

[40buster32]

cage has been around as part of the weathermen and def jux since a while back, shia didnt bring him up he just directed the video..

[amexnamedluis]

when is the movie coming out?? wow!

[quizmark]

fuck jack kerouac.

[Petey0707]

@MrCloakDagger yup, it seems nowadays you can't show an ounce of emotion or reality in a certain fashion without being considered emo, dumb faggots like mrcloak are perfect examples as to why. emmure, a hardcore band, is technically emo from your perspective, fuck outta here man.

[tubenick66]

I always thought Shia was a corny ass mo fo but he actually seems like a cool guy.

[NicoleMarieBeerstow]

Coming from a fan of the old cage... The only time i though i would see him with a gun is when he is probably gonna shoot someone like maybe a step dad or something.

[bigbuttpretzel]

haha losers

[DDMPU11]

my dad tought cage how 2 rap im so serious.....if u guys see the movie my dads name is epik just watch

[strangereveryday]

I'm just amazed how hes just name dropping.

these historical directors... and hes all like "yeah i called michael

and steven said.."

wow

gotta love shia

[notsnhoJhcaZ]

wow... this dude... his music... reminds me of... my poetry?

[GoddaM777]

I know he didn't just associate this piece of shit with Jack Kerouac

[bigdiesels]

fuck, cage is so sick

[katreenuhh]

i can just listen to his music for days.

[SIMMON52]

As long as Shia's not starring in a shitty movie or playing a shitty character... he seems like a pretty cool guy.

[AgileMuffin]

to heavy for cherubs is his best and darkest song

[KaytayBabyXx]

chris palko<333 mmm :)

[00lovelyneesh00]

mmm shia. i love lebeouf!

[nmfcm]

Dose it piss anyone else off that all these snobby bitchy girls are now suddenly into cage? I'm a girl myself so don't pull the "oh your a guy" bullshit.

Like fuck if your only listening to this man cause you think he's hot then go to someone else cause he deserves REAL fans.

& no, those girls are not real fans.

[nmfcm]

Cage seems like a total introvert except for when he's performing.

[Yattutroll]

omfg y r they filiming this in front of guns?

seriously this is a bad influence on kids!

[SporkyPoo]

wtf?

[busysignal2006]

let me add, i used to be the biggest cage fan and its good to see him working with shia lebouf, he's the fucking man! cage's music has changed alot though, im not sure what i think

[DevOne420]

you know i used to think the same thing after Movies for the Blind. Becasue thats exactly what they were, dark descriptive, deep seeded anger filled lyrics that paint a pisture like a movie. Alot of people dont like the dirrection that he's taking and I dont really agree. The more and more I listen to his new stuff I understand were the guys comin from. He spits with even more technical phrases and linguistic skill. He has just moved on from the box cutter gore rap. (continued----)

[DevOne420]

(cont.------)He's always written about things that hit him close to home which is why there's so much emotion in his lines. When he was younger he wrote more of the hardgore rap, street oriented stuff and familly issues. Now that he's grown up a litle he has more things to write about and it's only natural for him to progress in a more mature direction. He hasnt sacraficed anything, if anything I think he's far more technical with his rhyme schemes and deep lines. (----not enough room!continued)

[DevOne420]

(cont....again---) I'm sick of everyone getting mad because he's changed his style. There's a few really deep emotional songs on his album (wich i cant get enough of myself) but there are some really good upbeat songs that arent getting any credit. Check out "It's the 80's Again" that shits funny as hell. Everyone is just concetrating on a few of his songs (eg. "Ballad of the Worms" and "I Never Knew You"-two of my favorite of his to date) and crying "EMO RAP!". I'm sick of it. (argh!!!!!!!----)

[DevOne420]

(arrgh, sorry busysignal...-------) to anyone who bitches about his new style cause it doesnt fit what youve built Cage up to be: Get over it, stop bitching and ruining it for everyone else(not talking about you busy) If you can't appreciate what he's producing now thn you should just stick with Movies for the Blind and be happy with what youve got. Dont go trolling the internet ruining his image for the rest of us. (rant wasnt meant for you busy, hope his new stuff grows on ya like it did me)

[busysignal2006]

i like how cage is just shooting away while the interview goes on

[TheRockael]

Hahaha. Loving the face Chris is giving when Shia's being interviewed. How fucking awkward. hahaha.

[crescent50]

This album is by far one of his lightest. I'm pissed about the cage movie because it's turning the underground rapper that got me into hip-hop into an overground thing. Fucking poser fans are multiplying and it's pissing me off.

[amexnamedluis]

hehe, reminds me of a quote that Slug from Atmosphere said, it's something like "My fans hate me for having fans"

[xHEROINExWAFFLESx]

@crescent50

sadly thats kinda the point of bieng above ground (having more exposure).

most people are just sheep waiting to jump on the newest thing to seem original or interesting,and not neccasarily appreciate the music.

but whatevet,im still lovin water mouths grimey ass music.

[DevOne420]

Personally I wouldnt mind if he gets some mainstream lime light. It's not like he's conforming his lyrics to be played on MTV. If this is the direction that mainstream goes I would be more than happy. If all DefJux went Mainstream, keeping their sound, they would set a standard and probably influence alot of others to conform to them. At least thats the direction I'd like to see this take. I cant stand anything new on the radio if these guys can change the face of mainstream, I'd be happy.

[DoriansPennies]

I can honestly say that I am a new Cage fan, but all of his music I've grown to like and even love. Although I too found him through Shia. WIthout him I might not have ever come across Cage and I wouldn't know what I'd be missing.

[vonnyyay]

yea this my first time hearing about cage and it is a very ppowerful sound this is the kind of music i like... and i want to learn more :) and shia ive been a fan of him since i was a kid and basically since he was a kid (even stevens) so to me this is great @DoriansPennies

[theeyeburninglight]

Fuck yeah, Cardboard City.

[futurewolf42o]

great song but cage has to be the worst skeet shooter i have ever seen.

[truemc07]

y do i feel like shia lebouf playing cage with the craziest life that cage had ever would land him an oscar nomination...or be jus as hard as 8 mile...alota people gunna hate...but i jus have a weird feeling that it will be ill as 8 mile especially if he covers the beef with em well enuff along with the new cage style now ya no?

[DJAlfredPBJ]

shia's a moron . . .

[MadroxUk]

shia made cage shit - end of.

[MmmmEcho]

brought him up, cage is always going to be known. thank you impatient, for not being a complete naive disney teen. just do a little research before you start spouting off about hip hop artists, who have helped start big things. oh honey, go listen to the weathermen, take a blunt to the face & go through the related videos, & not shias.

[lpphr3ak677]

is Cage big now?

[joey70s]

Nice to see cage can still shoot a gun

[TheLadyEmma]

Shia dating with her :(

[MagaThePanda]

Insightful interview.

[ilovetexas210]

let's put it like this for u new cage fans if he didt have that i dont care type of look that.....that emo type of look be real u probably wouldn't listen to his music he's mainstream now he sold out

[impatientp]

shia is not the faggot here...

cage is

[gruhonjic]

have you ever read about cage's history?

apparently not

[impatientp]

don't act like you know about me from one youtube comment.

another symptom of the youtube virus.

cage wasn't a faggot when movies or even hells winter was dropped, but he is now

[gruhonjic]

Oh, when he was fat and a wannabe gangster?

His newest song are so deep, and they do it without spitting 90% cuss words.

[impatientp]

he wasn't a wannabe gangster when hells winter dropped, but that album was one of his best. and lyrically, his newish song "days" is the best hes ever been.

[impatientp]

thats the problem with new cage fans... you always turn it into an appearance thing, if he recorded his old shit looking like an emo I wouldn't care in the slightest.

[gruhonjic]

Btw, my original statement wasn't talking about his career history, but his childhood.

[impatientp]

ok, that doesn't change much

[gruhonjic]

It changes a whole freakin lot, you should respect the dude

[impatientp]

now that sounds like a dick rider. I used to respect his music, but now he's sullied his name and insulted his fans.

[gruhonjic]

He only insulted his fans because he wanted to get away from the people like you.

[impatientp]

you mean the people who got him where he is now?

[gruhonjic]

Shia got him where he is now

[impatientp]

shows how much you know

[TheLadyEmma]

True !! it's Shia who brought hip up... I never knew cage before, I bumped into his music bcz of Shia :)

[impatientp]

your'e an idiot,

shia didn't "bring him up" he was brought up by EL-P, Eastern conference records, WKCR radio & and years of quality hip hop albums.

I hate new cage fans

[TheLadyEmma]

:) Ok sweets, I just dont know abt cage ok ? in fact I never knew him until he started working with Shia, not only me lot of Shia fans are now cage fans too, thats a fact and u cant help it. give it a break hun, mwaah ! :)

[impatientp]

thats fine. but don't say that shia got him where he is now when you obviously dont know

[TheLadyEmma]

Shia got a lot to do with Cages recently boomed popularity, whats wrong with admitting that? Im not talking about his talents but his popularity certainly increased after they started working together.

[TheLadyEmma]

Im a huuuuuuuuge Shia fan, I respect Cage. I like some of his music but actualy I accidentally bumped on to him, because of Shia, thats how I got to know his existence :)

[TheLadyEmma]

Anyway they are friends. You look like a biiiig Cage fan, so why dont we become friends too, like our favorite celebrities do??? mwah, Chao !

[liltimmy1313]

cage was brought up by psychopaths, heroin addicts, abusive step-fathers, prozac, and nurses... Rapping came as a result of his fucked up life.

and i have all the respect in the world for him.

[FUXUPSSHITBRA4569]

@liltimmy1313

Hell yeah it fucking sucks he ant where he should be cuz eminem took his style & got rich off it.

[MRFAZZOLARI]

@FUXUPSSHITBRA4569 took hid style ? pleeze....cage is dope dont get me wrong but no one puts compound rhimes together like slim

[joemoe01]

Lol Michael bay tip 1: EXPLOSIONS

[slangin100]

cage is great and shia lafaggot sucks balls. doesn't anyone remember shia from fucking nickalodean? he probably heard of kerouac yesterday. fucking dork chooses the gayest, most mainstream, sellout fims around.

[Ranger1649]

What he does for a living and who he is and what kind of art he appreciates are two very different things. It's those "sellout films" that have given him the opportunity to showcase Cage to a much larger audience. The quickest way to destroy the beast is from the inside.

[slangin100]

oh, yes. he's trying to destroy the beast from inside. lol... he calls michael bay for advice on a cage project? give me a break.

[TheLadyEmma]

Shia brings the best together...:) That just prove how awsm he is! Shia+Cage+Bay = bect combination ever !

[anarchybro]

definitely an interesting duo. one being the epitomy of pop culture, a household name of fame. the other being the anti-pop culture figure who could care less about stardom.

It's intriguing, nonetheless

[YouEatTurds]

i wish cage would've shot that talentless faggot Shia

[msbrooksieful]

You two are very interesting. I wonder, do you shop at Wal-Mart?

[tohmtohm2]

shia is going to be one of the best actors of our generation

[N0MiSy]

hmmm,, that could be interesting, i cant wait to see it.

[catsrules247]

Ha, I like Cage's eye brow wiggle. Lol

[clancy4lfe]

shias ass kissing cage definately

[KamuntKurush]

Which is a little ironic, since LeBeouf is probably a little more famous than Palko. :P

[ryoliciousrules]

hes promoting the video

[kenhos32]

cage sellout industry fag go back to drugs when you were nicer new shit garbage emo homo back in the day u would of never fucked with some one like shai im not a fan anymore fuck you

[amexnamedluis]

grow up.

[HxCnerdybmxer]

i love how cage is shooting a gun he is the man and wow shia with cage is a funn but awsome duo.he went from even stevens to chillin with a rapper i want to be there friends and hang with them

[clap5]

I thought Dune sucked

[mlrosier30068]

how old is Cage?

[everlastisking]

Around 34 35

[mlrosier30068]

wow.... I am very surprised! He looks like he is mid 20s. I know he has pumped a lot of stuff through his blood and all the other stuff that he has been through, you would think he should like like 60 instead at the age of 35.

[Lukewarm27]

Born 1986. He's 23.

[TobyLee87]

cage is certainly not 23.

[Lukewarm27]

my mistake, i was referring to shia.

[fultonreed99]

im not a shia fan at all

[gangstasmurf06]

"There's points in the video... nice!... points in the video where"

[DatsPP]

Leave

[PunkInDrublic77]

i didnt hear a word he said

[hussy3]

lol wen dfm flashes on screen cage raises his eyebrowz

[DRO1]

Cage is like, "Shia's full of shit by the end of it" haha

[poopdoop22]

i love how they are randomly interviewed while shooting

[TheLadyEmma]

I miss this man like hell :(

[funfabmegan]

great interviiew...love shia and cage..cage has this mysterious sexy scary vibe bout him. and i aint normally into this type of music...i swear he must be casitin spells on us..Ha!

[Gudlidee]

[qtkelmo]

dude you need to chill out shia can smoke whatever the fuck he wants to smoke hes still doin his job and makin more money than you are, maybe you need to start smokin some shit so you can get a life and stop gettin into other peoples. The end

[Mrgibson234]

WTF are they shooting at.

[paydn202]

clay pigeons

[tcotten5]

not to mention this guy sucks at shooting skeet.

[hussy3]

that fuckin made me shit my pants but i love cage and shia

[tcotten5]

WTF is he talking about, this guy is directing this video for a selfish reason, and he makes a horrible fucking music video for a white rapper??? r u fucking serious, shias been smoking to much dope lately, obviously.....

[MentiraLie]

I saw cage on july 20th badass...... anyways

shia labeouf is directing the new cage biography type of movie

[RockRita09]

even with a mustache and a beard, he's sexy as hell

[McFrolics]

he directs?

[ilbv5]

He needs more serious roles in serious movies.

CUz I think he really has the potential to be one of the best actors.New depp,or leo.

[skandskate69]

I agree with you, i feel like he will be #1 actor;/

[hangman9001]

I know that guy...That's Justin Timberwolf

[Datebyprofile]

[ElementalSoul7]

the movie would be great if it has a stanley kubrick style to it. true cage fans should know what i mean by that.

[hussy3]

[Bufoa]

wow u are a true fan lmao

[EvaSharms]

lmao chris @ 2:51 - 2:54

[AFrame88]

it blew my minds when i found out Shia was down w/ Cage. Been a big Cage fan for so long, its feels good to see him get some lime light action w/o going uber mainstream played out...

[danielosaurusrex]

love this interview, but i wish they also interviewed cage

[MusicSoul39]

too much testosterone here

[RandomDealer]

He makes a great point. People who Act, Direct, etc - usually do it because they "love" to. So, if an individual may book a gig for a Dial Soap Commercial-it's exciting because they are doing something they "love" & possibly getting a paycheck. However, when you get the chance to work on a project that you are passionate about-or even more-so a fan of/supporter-that is the dream right there. It sounds like Shia is really passionate about paying CAGE respect for the music/life. Good shit.

[tokiohotelplz2]

lol i luv how chris is jst shooting into the air..u both r fukin awsome!

[IronicalsNotAWord]

errr you get that he's shooting at targets in the air right? just checkin'

[tokiohotelplz2]

lol yah i got that:)

[GossipGuy4All]

this guy is cool, he is so down to earth. hey cage stop it with the shotgun damn!! jk man.

[bIairwaIdorf]

love you shia!!!!

[UrbanMonkeyy]

why

[thatswhyimabastard]

nice interview. i bet they just sold 10,000 dfm's. they never ask cage shit in these 'i never knew you' interviews they do.

[Jasonlords]

Wow, I never knew Shia LaBeouf was such a cool person... I would let a black man rape me if it meant this movie would come out tomorrow. Cage is the shit.

[dirty06maggot]

why a black man?

[XxKarnagexX]

Damn. Cage is a hell of a shot....

[Meggalif]

I don't know, I can't really see Shia playing Cage. I think Shia is a great actor just not right for the part.

[absolutlyamber]

i swear, two of the fucking sexiest guys on this planet.

[drgodzukistrangelove]

youre an idiot.

[yofatface]

why did shia say that cage is pop now why is cage trying so hard to get into mainstream.....WTF!!! cage why are you changing so much.......dude make a hell's winter 2... stay in hip hop not hip pop

[viktorvaughn25]

[BlindBirdWatcher]

Fascinating interview. :)

[jenniferzam123]

GUNS! GUNS! and moeh GUNS!

[JuggaloCarl]

Awesome!

[SpaceJaws101]

awesome! =o

[Revrin743]

it really is cool to see these 2 dudes work together at such a pivotal time during Cage's reinvention. funny how shit works out, eh?

[chrisko321]

if shia can do Cage well, then he will automatically be one of my fav actors ever!

[DizzyFLIPPINd]

lmfao i love where this video takes place. so random

[victoriaonfilm]

Fuck In Awe Some.

[xTHEbeatles182x]

I LUV CAGE!!!!!!
