I think you guys being unfair. I was in the BBC final with Mil so if anyone should be saying bad things it would be me..

BUT.. I aint. Well done MIL. you doing things that others wont get a chance to do.. It dont matter if he dressed up as Ronald Mcdonald, he won and doing something that means something to him and he sharing it with people on here.

The interview will be cool, I am sure it will be restricted and edited etc..but still it something cool for a fan to do so stop bitching at him and let him enjoy it.

24th I think he flies back to UK
Today is the 24th.He interviewed only few people.So hes done with the documentary?
Is this one of those official video documentarys likes of 'Thug Angel'? Would it be sold in stores or it will air once or soemthing?
 
Don't you think that the interviewed are tired of the tradional interviewer?

As Militant put it, people should aspire to be original; that counts even more so in fashion, not that it even matters in this case.

I even said before, Militant looked excited, or "giddy", but honestly, who would'nt be? And showing this excitement can only make the interviewed, who have been neglected by amaru and even a bit forgotten by the world, happy that they still have that effect on people.

If I were Johnny J and some fan-in-a-suit talked to me as if I were his equal, I would get offended.

I think Militant was what he wanted to be: original. "Wiggers", if people even still use that term, would've acted all gangsta. Militant was himself: and it's great.

Although, I'm not too fond of that Makaveli dress shirt, but that's a different story..

it is actually this approach that was instrumental in me getting a lot of the things i have. professionalism will take you farther than you can even imagine - from collecting 2pac audio, to interviewing, to success in life. people trust others who look like they command trust. i am an adult and am confident in myself and my knowledge. i have just as much to share as i do have questions to ask.

..
only a young person with no experience of the real world would say such a thing. you have alot of growing up to do.

professionalism is a big thing in the music industy even if it is just an interview.

take lil jon for example. one of my instructors was invited to attend a showcase in atlanta back in the late 90's. lil jon and his group had just inked a deal and really nobody knew who they were. when they did their showcase, she said, lil jons performace was much like you see it on t.v. and in videos. he acted much like you see him act in the media. but as soon as it was over, she said he acted totally different. he was very professional, no use of slang words, respectful, kind, curtious, and it was like he was a different person.

dave chappelle said on his behind the actors studio interview, that there are sort of two sides too him. the way he acts with his friends, slang words etc and their is the way he acts at business meetings, professional.
 
JJ from juarez mexico, the border town right next to me, take him some tortas and give him some shots, if he a true mexican he wont turn them down
 
Hey militant, I know sometimes people go through financial hardship. What I'm willing to do,and many other generous members im sure, is donate some money so you could get youself some decent clothes and maybe a haircut.

Lame.. Good shit militant. You got the oppertunity that only few pac fans could dream off. Fuck haters in this world and keep up the good work!
 
Hey guys. I just got home and I'm pretty tired so I'm gonna try and make this a quick post. Thanks Edouble, Bachaveli for your posts, I just think it's funny that people wanna turn this into a discussion about what kind of clothes I wear. Probably mostly people that rock the same tired outfits and haircuts year in year out.

Anyway, Stephen - the interview with Gobi was fucking tight. He's a cool ass dude and spoke some deep shit. He was saying stuff like how for a few years after 'Pac died he just couldnt get over it, but then he realised that he couldn't let himself become a victim as well. It was real talk.

As far as the editing - like I said, it's unfortunately not up to me. We'll see how it turns out. I doubt they will put in some of the bits that I would say are the best bits, but thats just the nature of the game.

Dante - I was told to look excited etc for the video spots as those are the only means of promoting this before it airs other than the radio station itself. The actual interviews themselves were far more calm and collected. I most definately didn't come across as a overexcited fan or whatnot. I shouted you and your site out in the interview as well, so I gave you some publicity ;) and I didn't steal shit from Death Row really since their office doesnt exist any more. There was a room with random crap in it that was about to go in the dumpster, so I just grabbed the exit sign before we bounced.

Bach - It's a 2-hour radio documentary. Looks like interviews wise it is mostly going to consist of Johnny J, Gobi, Candyman, QD3, Mark Mahoney, guest spots from David Banner and Kardinall Offishall, as well as obviously songs being played and recorded conversations between me and DJ Semtex regarding various issues we have as fans and thoughts about being out in LA.

Rizzle/Preach - I don't have copies of the entire interviews. When it airs, I will see what has been put in and then try to remember other things that were said and write them up.

Ummmm... I found out quite a bit of information about the new album too (off the air). It's not fair for me to leak details publically about what I heard, but if anyone wants to holla at me on MSN or whatever then I don't see a problem. As in people on here that I would consider friends. Don't even bother getting at me if you've never addressed me before and have made fuck all contributions on this board.

Anyone has any questions, let me know!

Could you at least tell us if the news you heard about the new album is looking promising/positive or negative?

Very very very very very very positive. It's going to be awesome. I was happy with everything I heard as well as what I found out and didn't hear.

Wow thanks for that promising news. This is my most anticipated lp of the year. I hope you dug to the extent where you have info on the single's release date, when we can expect a video single, and promotion.

My only hopes are:I'm just hoping if e-40 is on the album, it's from a song he was originally on. and I'm hoping neyo and busta rhymes won't be on the album as was rumored before. I wouldn't mind hearing 50 Cent being on the lp though.
 
I didn't hear about the news posted on mrmakaveli.net - no one has mentioned anything about that except i did hear about kanye.

there was no ne-yo or scott storch mentioned to me. and nothing about any track with big l, rick james or anything. nothing i heard had any of those people mentioned.

but hey, remember we heard that rumor about prince? they tried their hardest to make that happen and get him on a track but i don't think prince agreed to it because of him being a jehova's witness now. But it still might happen, especially since Johnny J's engineer is working with Prince on something. Jonny said that his engineer showed Prince the 2Pac Dave Chappelle skit recently and Prince fell about laughing and said it was the funniest thing he'd seen in a while.
 
hahaha Princey .. to get Prince to work on a Tupac track that'd need a clean acapella right? :/ lets hope... at least what u've heard sounds positive ... if ur ever on msn perhaps u can tell me more ;)

Yeah, Mili! I was the one who brought that up in this forum. I read it somewhere that they were tryin to get Prince on because Pac was a huge admirer of his work an love for women. It would be good if it happenens but it would of been amazing if the two had done something together for real. Still, im hopeful this might happen. Right now ideally Im hoping for a good balance in this final album between modern day production (storch/kanye) an his original stuff (johnny J etc.).
