“Hiphopgame.com Interview How do you feel hearing your older tracks with No I.D. today? Oh, man, I feel like those records are timeless. I learned so much about life from No I.D., let alone music. And I can hear the growth in the cadence and how I tried to enunciate certain words. I can hear the growth and I think he had a lot to do with pushing me in the right direction. He never told me “Do this, do that.” He just gave me records and told me to “Do you.” I’ve never had an issue with No I.D. and he was very receptive.”

Well, at the RH sponsored DJ RTC & Friends Mikkey and Mick performed the completed version live for the first time. ”

“You may remember that over a year ago a Chicago supergroup formed, featuring four of the Westside’s most ferocious lyricists: Mick Luter, Big Wiz, Rashid Hadee and Que B.I.L.L.A.H. Picking a Westside landmark to name their regime after was the first order of business and shortly thereafter The United Center was born. Only one song leaked (the incredibly dope “Under The Act”) , and then The United Center was never heard from again.”

Quietly. Here he returns with “Street Knowledge” from the Beatknockaz International compilation, which pairs producers from France to Spain, with top notch American emcees including Mick, Joe Budden, CL Smooth and Termanology. ML’s joint was produced by Saikness from France. ”
