Sho nuf regarding college radio!!! Where I first Muzik from Skillz & The Supafriendz. 88.1 WHOV H.U station in Hampton, VA Mad Skillz' Nod Factor Supafriendz Vowel Movement
NEVER OBEY One the best that ever grace us with music on a soulful level.R.I.P QUEEN OF SOUL... You be sadly miss...But your classic hits still lives on
I met Skillz at The Common “Finding Forever” tour with Q-Tip in 2007 in Philadelphia at the electric factory. Just to get a pic n a dab from him was a highlight of my life. Much love to that King!
In the 804 & 757 it ain't!!! But er'where else maybe or non Skillz' fans. I crank it numerous times consecutively when I play it!!!! Finna bump it right now!! Bout to take a walk in a bit & bump it in my new Sony ear buds!!!
Er'time I hit up Skillz' & Supafriendz show, they always embrace me & show love! I have a pic wit dem which is in the inside cover of their 2000 Supafriendz release. I was too honored when I opened it & saw it!!!
Loved when Skillz used to come up to 89tec9 ( Stretch & Bobbito) and bless the mic.Always was one of the best guest/ rappers on the show.I still have tapes of him killing it!!
There is a singer singing on the intrumental - Tip of the tongue track by Mad Skillz. Just a snippet but i digg it. Brings back that old skool flava with a different fresh melody
It ain’t that VA doesn’t have a sound. VA does have a sound. People still biting Missy sound and style to this day. The industry has always used VA as a gold mine to farm for ghostwriters and production. They’ll build offices there in VA Beach or Norfolk. But, Emcees get boxed out. It’s hard. Very hard. And the hometown does not support until you popping already. It’s a big reason why Clipse and Gillie had such a chip on their shoulders about ghostwriting for Lil Wayne and Baby - and the beat jacking.
I had the singles for Nod Factor and Move Ya Body both on cassette and 2 copies of From Where cuz the first one popped from running that shit so crazy in my walkman...thank God The Wall used to let niggaz bring they tapes back long as you had that sticker on it
One of my FAVORITE LYRICIST. Not just a Rapper,,, but LYRICIST! Been rocking with Mad Skillz since 'The Nod Factor'. Yeah I just told my age so wat! Mad Skillz is ONE of the lasts ones from the Era where Hip-Hop was still considered da Pure and Truest form of Expression. The Era where "Biting" was NOT allowed. If you were caught "Biting" sumbody elses Rhymes or Style,,,,,, you got Snapped on, Sonned, or even,,,,,, Beat Down. And Ghostwriting,,,,,,,, was looked at as "Biting" because,,,,,,, you were speaking SOMEBODY ELSES WORDS! Its like,,,,,, if THEY can say dat,,,,, then might as well give THEM a Mic, and let em Rock it,,,, Or,,,,, sign THEM to a Deal. It was VERY Taboo. NOW DAYS,,,,,,,,,,,, Everybody Biting off everybody! You WONT be poppin,,,,, if you dont say the saaaaaaaaame thing, da saaaaaaame Slang,,,,,,,,, have da saaaaaaaaaame Swag, da saaaaaaaaaaaame Style,,,,,,,,,, as sumbody else in da Game. Like Skillz said,,,,, deez fools don care about WHO is writing da lyrics. All dey care about is WHAT is said,,,,, and WHO is saying em. Mad respect and Mad props, to a dude who STILL has,,,,,, Mad Skillz. Peace
Skillz is THAT DUDE! The Forerunner for Hip-Hop in VA! He Missy, Pharell, Timbaland, Pusha-T, and all the greats come out of the Commonwealth. Not to mention we have the greatest NFL Defenders in the history of the game to include: Lawrence Taylor, Bruce Smith, Charles Haley, Ken Easely, and Kam Chancellor. Qbs nice too Michael Vick, Russell Wilson, Aaron Brooks, Allen Iverson (that's right that one). Look him up.
I learn something new everyday. I didn't know before this interview that Angela Yee did the hook for "REUNITED" by WU-TANG, I knew she got her start with them, however I never knew she was on any of their songs.
Uh Ohhh!!!!!!😲 Look Who It Iz😯It's Mad Skillz 🎤Ghostwriter😱 4 Da Right Price💲💵 He Can Even Make Yo Ish Tighter🕺🏾(He Didn't Have 2 Do Shaq Like Dat😄 But He Did😏😊)
Mad Skillz is ill from where???? Was classic!!!! Fam you sleeping if you never heard skillz first lp. I was living in North Jerusalem and this was the album I bumped hard. Shlama! Skillz!
how many people stopped this interview to go watch WuTang Reunited video to see Angela Yee singing the hook "Its Wu Mutha*****" i thought skillz was joking at 1st.
