You Repping Brooklyn, NYC … But You Moved To Cali On Some Tupac Shit … What The Difference Between NYC Life & Cali Life?
CurT@!n$ – LA is more relaxed. I sit at home a lot and read and write and just enjoy the sun. In NY I’m never in the house, I never sleep, I’m always on the go. NY is a different kinda beast.

CurT@!n$ – Dope for President right now. I always got projects brewing, I just like the whole element of suprise thing going on.
I Personally Feel Your Underrated When It Comes To New Artist That’s On They Grind? Do You Feel The Same Way?
CurT@!n$ – Uh nah. I kinda like being under the radar sometimes. Its less pressure and more of a “Wow” factor involved. I like being a hidden gem. That whole cult favorite feel is pretty exciting for me.
Do You Feel That The Older Generation Is Selfish When It Comes To Passing The Torch To Some Of The Younger Artist?
CurT@!n$ – I think its more old age ego than anything. Michael Jordan just wanted to outplay Kobe and Iverson. When he finally realized that he couldn’t I think that’s when he really just gave up. Eventually these old heads gon see they can’t hang and just hang it up.
Everybody And They Grandmother Spit Bars Or Do Beats … How Do You Think You Bring Something New To This Over Populated Hip Hop Game?
CurT@!n$ – I bring energy and good taste. Other than that, Soulja Boy is the man. Honestly. Smartest kid ever and his records bang for them young kids.
Any Artist Or Producers That You Will Love To Work With In The Near Future?
CurT@!n$ – I wanna work with Prince Paul, DJ Muggs, The RZA, Havoc, DJ Premier, I wanna work with the grandmasters of the 90’s. Make some incredible 3008 shit.
You Are Considered One Of The Best Dressed Rappers? What Some Of The Labels You Fucking With Heavy Right Now?
CurT@!n$ – I don’t fuck with labels that heavy, I’m more into pieces. But Balmain is the illest shit to just look at. The Balmain woman’s collection is a inspirational beast. Dior is the shit and Gucci. Other than that I’m mixing and matching shit to create some sick twisted Frankenstein piece.
Do You Feel That Jay-Z’s D.O.A Track Was Needed Or Are You All For Autotune Mania?
CurT@!n$ – I fuck with the song. I fuck with his energy. I like T-Pain and I like The Dream. Everybody else using Autotune sucks.
What’s Your Feelings On The Sudden Death Of The Late Great Micheal Jackson?
CurT@!n$ – Let him rest. Mike never had a day of peace in his life! Let him get his sleep. Mike’s the man.
