The Untold Story of Busta Rhymes | Big Boy Off Air (Interview) 

So humble, so respectful, so real, so versatile, so talented, so articulate on all levels!!! FLOWERS ALWAYS BUST! All hands down!

People nowadays will never know how it felt being in the midst of a cultural, artistic and creative revolution like the one Hip Hop brought us in the 70s, 80s and 90s.

I'm my Disrespectful opinion Busta is the Greatest Rapper to come out of New York City.....prove me wrong

How is Busta not in more movies or cartoon movies. This man got a voice of a god fr

Man this the first time i sat through a 3 hour interview. 🔥🔥

The way big boy orchestrates his interviews is remarkable like bust said this isn't a interview to him this is like sitting down n talking with family I'm so glad to say I was blessed to be around for that generation to prosper and grow🙏🏽, Life is hip hop ,busta is hip hop we love u two bruthas thank u for this 💯🤎👏🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Could listen to this man talk all day. From his voice to the stories and game that he gives, this was a crazy audio experience. 💯

Busta's voice is still 🔥

Busta's outfit is dope ASF💥

Hearing Busta Rhymes slow down and kick his rhyme on Scenario left me in tears 😭, took me back…I’m unapologetically HIP HOP!!!🥹🫵🏾👊🏾 Here we go yo, so what’s, so what’s, so what’s the scenario!!!

Living in Nigeria and listening to hip-hop from the 80s until now, I'm getting goosebumps from this discussion. My first mimed rhyme was LL Cool J's and Fresh Prince's "Girls Ain't Nothing but Trouble." When hip-hop came to Nigeria, it felt like a crack addiction; I felt like it was mine because I could keep bars in my head without my parents knowing what I was doing. If I was beefing with someone in the street and suddenly realized that they liked hip-hop or rap, the beef was instantly over. My first rap name was ICEMAX, lol, because at that time, I was addicted to Ice Cube and Ice-T. I could go on for days, man. Hip-hop was a blessing to us. We were seeing everything being done in the States in real-time in Nigeria, from Right On! magazine to Rap City and Yo MTV Raps; all those channels were shown after midnight Nigerian time via tapped off stolen cables lol. Sometimes I would miss it, but I had friends who would have recorded them on VHS tape. If a record dropped in New York today, the following day it would find its way to Nigeria. i can't believe these new generation ruined hip hop bro. Sorry man, i got to say it . cos it hurts like a bad tooth. i hope hiphop come back someday to visit us. Now i call my self dayosonic now which is a combination of my govt name and just added the sonic. Got couple of videos on youtube somewhere.

Busta Rhymes was definitely the Mr. T of the 90’s as far as style and charisma goes. There was no one like him in Hip-Hop back then.

Wow! This is a blessing, Love Busta! I'm 71... We need too see and hear more of you.❤

Busta Rhymes is forever my favorite MC!

Busta is so real I appreciate when celebrities keep it real letting us know they go through things too!!! 💯

Hearing him slowly rapping his scenario verse still hits like it’s live… classic material.

I used to listen to Busta Bus when I was 63, and now I'm 17. This will forever be a classic.

Love these Hip Hop stories down memory lane!!

The info in this convo is in dept, it’s explores the innovation of HH, this interview could be a movie. Great job Big Boy and the crew🏆

Busta you will always be my #1!!! I love you King!! Never change!!❤❤

i knew bust bout that Graff life... BUSTA is the epitome... Bless and respect... Great conversation with BIg Boy!

Busta has one of the most infectious personalities on the planet, I absolutely love his spirit! 💜

I learned a lot from this interview. Busta took us all the way back. I definitely remember the era of Leaders of the New School. Couldn’t have guessed that he was kicked out the group & then asked to come back. This man is so humble. Also a great actor. My favorites: “Finding Forrester”, “Higher Learning” & of course “Shaft.”

I got to meet Busta and Spliff last year in Long Beach and both of them are super cool and down to earth, very nice people, just what you expect them to be 👑🔥👌🎧💎🤜

Best interview of 2024 so far!!!

🗣Busta what it is right now 🎵🎶❤ Busta energy!! Give this man his 💐 🌹 🌸

Yo BIG! I love these sit downs. You're serving up some great content big bro.

Busta - artistic genius

I’m friends with Dinco Dee to this very day since I was 17 my aunt calls Buster by his name Trevor, they used to perform shows to small shows at their job rest in peace, Jimmy Jackson Dinko Dad he invested his money because he believed until group he believed that they will be successful so he put thousands of dollars into that group leaders of the new schoolI never made it in the music industry. My parents were totally against it, but they still have that friendship from one of the members being at his dad and my aunt worked at the same job in New York.

Man what a great conversation!Its so good to hear the backstory on how brothers look out for other brothers.Dallas Austin is the champion! CBrown was jealous of Busta from the jump. Glad they worked out their issues!

Busta’s stories made me remember my days as a youngsta coming up, but when he spoke on the 98 Posse! I was AMAZED the 1st time I saw that Public Enemy album cover. I knew right then at 15 yrs old that I had to have that car so I could pull up like this. 3 months later, after I bought that album, at 15 yrs old and no license in Missouri, I had a blue 1979 Ninety-Eight Oldsmobile with the caramel leather top and guts with a moonroof, sitting on trues and vogues! I will never forget the trouble I was in when my Mom asked whose car is that and where did those tires and wheels come from? Lol😅

I could tell Busta TRULY loves all his children...I could feel the emotion whenever he talks about them. 🫡🫡🫡 to Busta AND Big Boy

I felt that same energy with Public Enemy. Chuck D is a teacher and an MC. His delivery definitely had everyone stand at attention.

That was Inspiring dialog. Thank you both 🙏🏾

That’s a BADD ASS OUTFIT

Big boy is such an LA LEGEND .. grew up listening to him every morning on my way to school , ever since elementary

Bust needs his own platform on YT

To think I made pause tapes of Busta Rhymes and DMX, BIGGIE, 2Pac and Cash Money from like ‘96! What a life!

Busta is a pure genuine soul and it was so refreshing to see this side of him...Perfectly done Big Boy!!

This was a great podcast. To learn Busta’s history was so 🔥🔥🔥. You never hear bad things about him. He’s a true lyricist and incredible entertainer. Definitely a legend.

Great conversation! It's nice that you let the thinking pause.
