YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn an exclusive interview with VladTV, Brooklyn duo M.O.P. speak on coming up in the game with Nas and the late Biggie Smalls, favorite female rappers today and why it's okay not to like some of the new talents of the genre.
Reflecting on their early days, Billy Danze and Fame say they don't recall when they met, but practically grew up together. Much like De La Soul and Wu Tang Clan, they weren't forced to work with one another through a label.
The guys think their organic come up helps them develop good work. They also explain their only disputes come from a dislike of a beat.
When it comes to the current waves of Hip Hop today, Fame says he isn't a fan of much of the new talent but is a bigger fan of reggae music. Danze chimes in with the belief that "bad" acts are needed in the culture to find the best artists.
Fame later adds that he enjoys listening to Kevin Gates, Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Rhapsody. Danze also co-signed Rhapsody and Nicki Minaj, calling them dope acts.
