And I don’t look up or down on any artist. Everybody is creating art and telling their experiences . I pull from within myself, my life, and my own issues for inspiration.

3. Where do you find your inspiration?

Eric6ray –  I get inspiration from everything . especially from issues I overcome or going through. Depression, breakup, drug abuse, confusion, love, war, family.

4. What is one experience in life that, without it, you wouldn’t be the artist you are today?

Eric6ray – Substance use. If I didn’t use so much in my past I don’t think I would of seen things the way I do or have had to overcome anything. Overcoming is a huge part of the process and art.

5 Please tell us more about your experience in the music industry, how it affected your life and art?

Eric6ray – I learned from a lot of artist , producers, managers, and labels in the industry. From distribution deals to management deals, to features getting cleared. After going through and using the beast for awhile I decided to stay independent until the right partnership came along. This decision gave me more time to focus on myself and my life and my art . I don’t have to please anybody with my art other then myself.

6. How does your creative process differ now compare to when you started?

Eric6ray – Now I create my own beats, I write my own lyrics, i have a lot more of a unique and different sound. I found my voice now a days. When I first started I used a lot of YouTube beats and I didn’t have my own sound or really any consistent process . Most of the creative side I do on my own. Then I leave the science and promotions up to my team.

7. If you could take anyone in the world dead or alive for dinner who would it be?

Eric6ray – Id take 2pac to dinner. I would want to talk to him 1 on 1 because everything you see in the media could of been twisted to portray something they wanted us to see. I want to see what really drove the greatest rapper on earth. Or bob marley and I’d have the same questions. Or Kurt cobain.

8. Do you prefer recording or performing Live? And Why?

That’s the hardest question. I love recording because you’re mind can wonder to anywhere and you can say anything and it can become ANYTHING you feel or want it to be.

But I love performing because the energy the crowd gives you makes you feel like you could Float straight through the ceiling.

If I had to choose though… man I don’t even know what I’d choose! I’d probably record right on stage 😂.

HonkMagazine

In the ever-changing world of hip-hop, friendships and loyalty are crucial. For Tony Yayo, loyalty isn’t just a catchphrase, it’s part of who he is. In a recent interview with VladTV, the longtime G-Unit member shared his thoughts on supporting his close friend and music partner, 50 Cent, even when things get tough. Yayo understands that being loyal to 50 Cent sometimes puts him in challenging situations, often leading to confrontations that don’t directly involve him. He candidly points out, “I know that people might target me just because they’re upset with 50.” It’s a reality he’s learned to accept.

In the music industry, there’s an unspoken rule that being loyal can come with sacrifices. For Yayo, this often means dealing with conflicts from those who see him as closely connected to 50 Cent. Despite facing disrespect through feuds and insults, Yayo remains steadfast, refusing to let outside pressures influence him. Rather than feeling bitter, Yayo approaches his experiences with a positive mindset. He recognizes that loyalty can be costly. “There are no rules in this game,” he remarked, highlighting the unpredictable and sometimes harsh nature of the industry. For him, the key is to stay smart and focused.

Yayo’s down to earth attitude is evident as he underlines the importance of perseverance. “I’ve faced a lot in this industry, and I just try to remain humble and keep pushing forward,” he shared. His strong mindset shows that while drama often grabs attention, it also reveals true strength. As fans of G-Unit know, the relationship between Yayo and 50 Cent goes beyond just music. It’s a brotherhood built on years of loyalty and shared struggles. While some may see Yayo as just a side player in 50’s conflicts, he views himself as a committed soldier, ready to face whatever challenges arise.

Mase Shocks Fans with Willingness to Visit Diddy in Prison Despite Bad Blood

HonkMagazine

In a surprising turn, Harlem rap icon Mase expressed that he would be willing to visit Sean “Diddy” Combs in prison despite their troubled past. This unexpected comment came during a recent episode of “It Is What It Is,” a sports talk show co-hosted by Mase and fellow rapper Cam’ron. Known for their open and honest discussions, the two veered off sports to touch on personal topics, and Mase’s honest admission sparked quite a buzz among fans. The talk started when Cam’ron mentioned Mase’s recent appearance at the funeral of Voletta Wallace, the mother of the legendary rapper Biggie Smalls.

There were rumors that Mase had sat next to one of Diddy’s children at the service, which seemed unusual given their history. Mase quickly brushed off the speculation but then offered a surprising thought. “If my name was on the list, I’d go visit Puff, you know?” Mase said, surprising Cam’ron. “Yeah, I would visit him, make sure he was good.” Everyone laughed, but Mase’s words had a genuine tone. Even though Mase has been open about his issues with Diddy and the business practices at Bad Boy Records, his statement hinted at a deeper feeling of loyalty and care that goes beyond past disputes. Cam’ron jokingly asked why Mase hadn’t visited Diddy when he was free.

Nonetheless, Mase explained that checking on people during tough times is important. “These are the times when you need people to see if you’re alright, you know?” he said. “And not that I agree with whatever they’re saying he may have done. Until it’s proven, you want to be there for someone who has done good things for you.” This moment of compassion was unexpected and showed a more thoughtful side of Mase, someone who understands the complexity of relationships. While Diddy faces serious allegations, Mase’s readiness to show kindness is significant. It reminds us that moments of understanding and forgiveness can occur even amidst feuds and disagreements.
