I've been watching battle rap since that time period when Cassidy was hot, Murda Mook and Lux first when at it. That was a very pivotal time in hip-hop.

Battle rap is a culture. That's boxing, it's like boxing.

I have respect for the sport so I will contribute to the sport by encouraging artists .

I used to wanna rap like Jay-Z, Now I feel I could run laps around Jay-Z, Nas ain't seen nothing this nasty, B.I.G. & Pac got it coming when I pass too. You got the mic, I ain't the one you wanna pass to

I've been following battle rap for a long time. Me and Daylyt are real cool. We battled on my album, he's on my album. We did a one round battle on my album and that was just me capturing These Days.
Ab-Soul
I've been thinking about that a lot too lately, These Days. I think it's becasue I grew up in retail, in costumer service. I grew up having to talk to everybody, having to sell to everybody so now that I can just sell me, it's fun. It's not even a sale, it's really just me being me.
Ab-Soul
Me personally, I just wanted to do that to capture These Days.With DAY-lyt.

I really enjoy doing music because it's a challenge to try to reach that frequency and connect with people and get them tuned to what you're talking about. I definitely respect and enjoy that challenge.
Ab-Soul
I don't even really understand that concept of someone being 'smart' or someone else being 'smarter.' I think that except for the obvious special cases, we're all equal.
Ab-Soul
Honestly I think it was gradual from the first time I came. It's been a gradual thing as far as audience and response wise. I feel like I was conditioned for this type of impact.
Ab-Soul
106 & Park, Freestyle Friday, that was real pivotal. I feel like he has the right to do that, he comes from that era so he has the right to do that.
Ab-Soul
I'm like Donatello. For real. You probably want to come play your joints for me get my condolence.
Ab-Soul
Everything is written in my mind, more so due to my lack of vision at this point. After years of vigorous writing, it was more of a challenge to do it without paper or sidekicks. I enjoy a good challenge.
Ab-Soul
I treat all my projects the same. They're all time capsules of where I am at the time and what I'm thinking about.
Ab-Soul
I think our Canadian fan base is large because it took us a while to get over here anyway, in the first place.
Ab-Soul
I wasn't really sold on being an artist until high school, my senior year. I was going to do the college thing originally.
Ab-Soul
There are a lot of people in this world that listen to wide ranges of music and there should never be a CERTAIN type of music that any artist should be confined to, in my opinion.
Ab-Soul
I feel like battle rap is as popular as it's ever been, today. With Total Slaughter it's getting real popular.
Ab-Soul
Not even battling but just really known for rapping. Like I had songs up on Soundclick first, take it back.
Ab-Soul
You had to look at it as sales, as costumer service. Costumer's alwasy right, you know? Service with a smile. Those type of things so it's just kinda in me. In my DNA.
