to send the track to Bun B, and makes that decision to use the track for the album, but in G.L.C. faced a problem in getting the Sir Mix-A-Lot sample cleared so he reached out and cleared up the situation by re-creating a fresh new vocal for the track ‘Clockin’ Lotsa Dollarz’
“The people working on his album are the industry finest, and in turn are helping him”
Kix: Give Kix, an exclusive on any other tracks we expect to see in the music scene? GLC: After the album release expect a track to come out under ‘Kid Cudi’ called The End produced by the Blended Babies feat. Nicole Wray & Chip Tha Ripper. Also on the Outlawz new Album and 2 Pac’s Group. Over 70 features this year alone on mixtapes/albums alot of it has been released or due to come.
“World of IIzel that awaits”
Kix: Anything you are going to be doing something different from all the other artists out there, any special abilities or surprises we should look out for… GLC: Surprise is “my mackin” aka flirting ability and power over the industry and he charms the girls on a daily basis also his skill is drawing and animating, as G.L.C. mentions there a cartoon he took part of called “Welcome To Haterville”, he drew all the characters and surprisingly drew his album artwork himself.
Kix: Is there any artist’s out at the
moment that inspires you, and wish to collaborate… with? Or producers?... dead or alive GLC: Wishes to collaborate with André 3000, Scareface, Marvin Gaye (if he were alive), Isaac Lee Hayes, Al Green (one day) quotes “I Like Soulful Music”, great Pimp C, there are so many artists out there... to be continued.
Kix: As an Individual what makes you excited in music, your music, and how it effects your fans… Is there anything special you wish to say to your fans out there? GLC: What makes G.L.C excited, that people/fans are inspired by what he is doing and in turn are inspired in being an inspiration to people, quotes “when people come up to me and taken by words in my lyrics, go WOW 4 REAL, its a blessing and I give gratitude”.
“Appreciative that people are embracing my concept, with the album show the world what it is”
Kix: What do you think as an Individual, right now about the Music Industry and the Way its going or been going? Out here in the US or UK… GLC: Music Business is growing, record companies are down sizing or sitting down and the power of the internet with viral campaigns the artists are in control, what they want to do and project to the fans, the decisions, are all there’s there is always that possibility of becoming big in the industry.
“give it y’all if you desire the ball might have a good chance, be away from being small, church”
Kix: What advice would you give to any starting artist’s out there? GLC: My advice would be the 5 P’s...
“Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance”
Kix: What do you like about London most of all compared to the USA… GLC: “The women and accents, and their dress sense looking like the future, is what I like about London” (Lol)
Kix: How do you get your Kix? GLC: (G.L.C. Gets confused) “Sponsored by Michael Jordan’s brand of sneakers, if there is a ‘kix’ I don’t have I hit up sneaker boutiques such as, leaders, success, flight club, and all the others in Chicago” (after the misunderstanding) G.L.C. mentions he gets his ‘kix’ from the ladies and money.
