The guy who claimed to leak it said the reason he did it was because of some of the things you said about mixtape DJs. Do you want to talk about what you feel about mixtape DJs?
No because I don't feel nothin' about nobody but myself or my family. I'm cool with the majority of them but just a few of them that, you know, I'd rather not put no more light on their heads.

You mentioned your family. You had your daughter young and you've rapped about her. How has fatherhood changed you?
My daughter's 9 now. So it changed me then. Right now I'm going through a different state of change. Now she's older, she's no longer a baby. She's a kid. It's a difference that I can't explain. I think the best explanation is that it's showing improvement.

Your improvement or her improvement?
Me, myself and her. Most importantly her though.

You've been candid on the record with other people, though, about smoking weed and drinking [cough] syrup. Can we talk about syrup?
No.

Well, what was your reaction to Pimp C's death earlier this year [of possible complications from drinking prescription-strength syrup]? Did that scare you at all?
Nothing scares me but God.

One of the rumors that went around last week was that you checked into rehab.
Yeah, I heard about that.

What does that make you think?
It don't.

Getting back to your cameos, then. Who's your favorite cameo that you've done?
I wouldn't say I have a favorite. All of them, of course.

Is there anyone you've never worked with that you'd like to?
Eminem.

Why Eminem?
Is that a real question?

Yeah.
He's great, man. His lyrical skills. That boy can spit.

You say you're the greatest rapper alive. Kanye West claims to be the biggest star in the universe. Who's bigger?
He is.

    I hope this was you being funny.....
    I'm hip hop forever, but I doubt my kid will be taking any hints on the way to live life from any MC.
    Artists should not be kids "role models". Insire your own damn kids. inspire them to listen to the pain these people put on wax for us and understand the mistakes and the misfortunes others are going through so they don't fall into the same trap.
    Oh and the interview wasn't anything I felt the need to laminate either.

    I think the sizzurp has had a bad effect on him personally.
