AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH MYZERY PART 2...


HODGE- Sup Myz. How've things been going for MYZERY Camp lately?

MYZERY- MYZERY Camp's been the same as usual. Violence, music, bitches, money, drugs.ain't shit gonna change.

HODGE- Tell me about this joint album your making with former DARK LOTUS member MARZ? How many tracks are finished, and who's doing the production on the album?

MYZERY- MARZ, yeah that's my nigga! We gonna get it on and poppin! We ain't even scratched the surface on that yet. We've done 2 tracks so far. That's just a touch. DJ PEE, LUNCHTIME, NO JOKE, and some of MARZ's people are gonna lay down the production on it. MYZERY & MARZ= The M&M Project. But we ain't gonna be plain, we got peanuts.

HODGE- In late February you did a show with MARZ here in my hometown of Baltimore. That show was incredible! Are you guys gonna do more shows or tour together after the release of your joint project?

MYZERY- If haters stop hatin, it's on and crackin. You don't have to be on Psychopathic to be a psycho. And that's just what we are. I hope we can do a lot of music together. Shows, tours and all that.

HODGE- Speaking of collaborations, I've heard that former Psychopathic Records artists PROJECT BORN tried to reach you last year about doing a song together. Any truth to this?

MYZERY- If they was, I was probably to high to remember. My bad PROJECT BORN. But, if they're still interested I'm wit it. I'll work with anybody I love music.

HODGE- Not long ago PONCH(MYZERY's Partner) mentioned to me about a SPANISH SYDE RYDAS album featuring TWIN GATS. I believe it was gonna be titled "Still Dumpin". Is the album still in the works?

MYZERY- It's already done Hodge. If PONCH wants to put it out, it's available. I just make music. All that other shit, it's not for me. It features MYSELF, NAPALM, JOEY BLONX, LIL ARSON, CHECHE and even PONCH sings on one of the hooks.

HODGE- Rumor has it that in the fall of 2003 you had a meeting in Detroit with Psychopathic Records owner ALEX ABISS. Did it have to do with a hatchet re-union of sorts?

MYZERY- I thought it did, but when I got to Detroit ALEX didn't holla back. But it was all good cause I got to visit my sister, my niece, and some homies from Detroit. So anyways, it worked out either way.

HODGE- Your last 4 albums have been extremely hard to come by for your fans. Luckily, you hooked us up at www.milenko500.com with some of your older albums for our webstore. I've heard that you've been considering re-releasing your entire back catalog in the near future. What's the scoop?

MYZERY- Yup, I'm taking everything outta the closet. I even got a secret weapon that we know everybody will wanna buy! But for now it's just a secret weapon.and it has EVERYBODY on it. And we have a few others recorded during the House Of Horrors tour before the RYDAS. We're Re-releasing D.P. INC, 4 FACES, and THE RED EYE. All the re-releases will have bonus tracks. Plus I'm dropping a new album called MYZERY CLASSICS. It'll feature all unreleased tracks from when I used to rap under the name RHYME RECKER. All this will be available on our new site launching soon at www.myzery.net and/or right here at www.milenko500.com.

HODGE- At the end of your D.P. INC album you had a live version of the song "Witching Hour". Was that song from your touring days with ICP or from your Gathering of the Juggalos 2001 performance?

MYZERY- I got "live" sets from every show I've ever done. I've got "live" shit from ICP's House of Horrors tour and beyond. I've recorded everything on the low-low. Just for my memory. I've got a lot of shit no one has ever heard from Psychopathic as well.

HODGE- What's this I heard about you performing at some huge OLD SCHOOL hip hop concert in the fall of 2003? Old School is the shit! How did that go and what other acts played that day?

MYZERY- It was one of my favorite shows ever! There were so many Old School playas there. I'm talking KRS-1(who's not just one of the greatest MC's, but my favorite) KOOL G RAP, MELLY MEL, SLICK RICK, DAS EFFEX.just so so many. It was definitely the shit!

HODGE- Did you ever wrestle on any of the earlier JCW or ICP's HELLFIRE WRESTLING events?

MYZERY- Yeah one time. It was during a battle royal. I got double teamed and thrown out by ICP.

HODGE- What other Musicians would you add to your collaboration wish list?

MYZERY- I don't care. I wanna cut a track with everybody if they're interested. Whenever, whatever. Hey if we got beef, lets war on the track. I just love music. Let's make it fun.

HODGE- Not to resurrect some old drama, but weren't you considering re-signing with Psychopathic Records right before the hotel fight with TWIZTID in 2001?

MYZERY- I never signed to Psychopathic. I'm just a RYDA who loves to write and spit in the studio. Like I've said before. I'm the greatest un-signed rapper of all-time.

HODGE- Isn't your partner PONCH still planning on releasing a compilation album featuring yourself, NAPALM, SPANISH SYDE RYDAS, and more guests?

MYZERY- PONCH is planning to release everything. Everything we've ever recorded. But "LOVE OR HATE" is my last album. I'm going into working with younger artists. Talented ghetto thugs with mad skills. So watch out.

HODGE- Your sister NANCY(JUMPSTEADY's Lady), and your niece Samantha have rapped on 2 family style songs with JUMPSTEADY. Will you ever consider making a song with family members on it?

MYZERY- Yeah, that's already in the works. I've sent JUMPSTEADY 4 tracks to work on. He's sending me a couple of tracks also. It's me and him collaborating now, so watch out for those!

HODGE- What's spinning in your cd player lately?

MYZERY- A lil bit of PAC, a lil bit of JADAKISS, a lil bit of PALDERON, a lil bit of SEAN PAUL, a lil bit of SANIA ALLSTARS, a lil bit of EVERYTHING?

HODGE- Lets hear about your upcoming album "Confessions". Didn't you recently change the albums title?

MYZERY- Yeah it's been changed to "Love or Hate". Cause you can Love or Hate me for what you know to be the truth about me. That, or the rumors, or the he say-she say shit. If you Love me.holla and chill with me. Get high with me. And if you Hate me, then just keep the fuck away from me. Don't get it confused. I'm not lying. I got nothing to lose.

HODGE- Will you be in attendance at this years Gathering Of The Juggalos?

MYZERY- Nah, not this year. Well, I'm still undecided. I'd rather do other shit than hear a lot of negative MYZERY stuff. I might end up with a murder charge. I'd rather be in Virginia Beach with some biatches. Gettin right and chillin. Don't get it wrong. I still got love for all of you. It's just some haters that got shit all twisted up. But you never can tell with me. If you think you see me lurkin, layin lo in the shadows at the GOTJ.don't doubt it.

HODGE- Earlier this year you told me to spread the word that MYZERY was considering hangin up the mic after the release of your upcoming album. Was that just a passing thought, or are you still considering leaving the music business?

MYZERY- I'm not leavin. I'm just not gonna be spittin. I'mma start producing and helping younger cats out. Teaching and guiding them.

HODGE- Your lil cousin NAPALM(formerly MENTAL CASE) released an impressive debut album "Thirsty" at last years Gathering. Is he planning on recording a full length follow-up album as well?

MYZERY- That "Thirsty" album last year.was just that, THIRSTY. He wrote it, recorded it, did the artwork, mixed it, pressed it, shrinked it, all that shit in just 1 day. No bullshit. Me and him just went at it the day before the Gathering. That's some real thirsty shit. Hints the album title. He's taking some time on his next album he's working on and now it's fine.

HODGE- Last year you mentioned to me that Yourself and MARZ were gonna be using MIKE E. CLARK's production on some tracks. Is that still in the plans?

MYZERY- MIKE E. CLARK don't holla back. But if he's still wit it, I'm wit it. That's my homie. Tell him to give me the musical drugs and I'll supply the vocal drug deal.

HODGE- Well MYZ, as always it's been a pleasure doing an interview with you. I know your fans have been starving for info on you over the years. I appreciate you using www.milenko500.com as an outlet to spread the word on MYZERY Camp. Any last words for your fans that may be reading this.

MYZERY- Thank HODGE! Thanks for the line to spread the word. Thanks for the interviews. Good lookin MILENKO500 for sellin my shit. And for always letting the real word out. Yall my niggas. I got yall. Nothing but love to all fans of music period. Middles up to all haters. Love or Hate, make the choice. Love me or Hate me, I ain't mad at ya.

Below here is Myzery Interview Part 1



Milenko500's Interview with
MYZERY
By Mike HODGE

HODGE- First off I wanna thank you for taking the time to conduct the internets first in-depth interview with MYZERY.

MYZERY- I'm doing it cause your site has always tried to tell both sides of the story and never fed into those internet rumors like alot of other sites. Not to mention you always check with me before posting some B.S. that might be out there.

HODGE- So what have you been upto these days? Rumor has it that your fast at work on a new album already.

MYZERY- Yeah, the new albums called "Confessions" and it's my best work yet! It's gonna have lots of collabs and 4 new producers. Just wait for that!

HODGE- Is it true that you rocked the mic for this years Puerto Rican Day Parade in NY?

MYZERY- I just did a lil 15 min set there. I got soo fucked up that day. I don't even remember who was there or how I performed. When we saw the video tape all we saw was recordings of bitches asses. No performances, lol.

HODGE- Is CAMP MYZERY still the same members?

MYZERY- Well, first I would like to welcome my homie Eddie-Chin & Carl B who both just came here from prison. Also thiers NAPALM who we put in Anger Management in Michigan to keep him from bugging out. The Spanish Side Squad is Forever- PONCHO, Attica, Magic, R Sin, Pepa, and O. It goes from New York to Long Island to Michigan to Arizona to Puerto Rico.

HODGE- What was this infamous "Triple Threat" group that SHAGGY used to mention? Who did it consist of?

MYZERY- The TRIPLE THREAT was always BILLY BILL, SHAGGY, and PONCHO. Always going out after shows, getting wasted, and hitting up the strip bars. This mostly went down during ICP's House of Horrors tour.

HODGE- Lets talk a lil bit about your family tree. Isn't Samantha your niece?

MYZERY- Yeah Samantha is my niece, JUMPSTEADY is her father, VIOLENT J is my brother in law.

HODGE- Do you still keep in touch with JUMPSTEADY or VIOLENT J?

MYZERY- I talk to JUMPSTEADY a bit, but not VIOLENT J at all.

HODGE- Has your beef with TWIZTID died down now? Lets hear your side of the story about the fight?

MYZERY- Thiers no story to tell...or better yet you know the Real story. Pickles(Twiztid's boy) threw a punch to us during the DARK LOTUS set (GOTJ 2001) and then got his ass kicked. Then TWIZTID, BLAZE, and ABK came to the hotel room with like 1000 juggalos. Why bring fans first of all? If your beefing with us then come alone. Anyways, they got rocked and thats it. I put it in my muzik cuz it's part of my life. My muzik is episodes of my life, exactly how it is and how I feel. Like I said. I write what I feel...I feel what I write...and I live how it is.


HODGE- Alot of your fans liked the production MIKE E. CLARK did on some of your first EP. Would you ever consider working with MIKE E. CLARK in the future?

MYZERY- Speak of the devil. We're talking about a collab now.

HODGE- Are there any unreleased MYZERY Psychopathic songs out there?

MYZERY- Yeah theirs like 3 albums called Golden Goldies. It's ME, PONCHO, SHAGGY, VIOLENT J, JUMPSTEADY, ALEX ABISS, STEPHEN, BILLY BILL and more all rappin and buggin out. I have no access to the albums though.

HODGE- Is their any more unreleased PSYCHOPATHIC RYDAS tracks featuring MYZERY aka TWIN GATS floating around?

MYZERY- Fuck yeah. TWIN GATS will be back!

HODGE- On JUMPSTEADY's album the credits list PONCH as a producer for the track "Ninjas in Action". Was that N.I.A. song something produced by PONCHO awhile back?

MYZERY- The beat was a sample from the old T.V. show "Chips". The actors on it were called Ponch and John.

HODGE- At the GATHERING 2001 you were promoting an upcoming album titled "No More Pain". Was that album scrapped?

MYZERY- yeah scrapped.

HODGE- After your upcoming album is released are you thinking of releasing any other merch. Like maybe a DVD with some "live" concert footage and shit?

MYZERY- Who knows.

HODGE- In the late 90's the rap group PSYCHO REALM(Dope as hell) from the Cypress Hill family were on the same ICP tour as you. I hear you guys were pretty tight. Whats your relationship with PSYCHO REALM these days?

MYZERY- Yeah, PONCHO has been hollering at those cats trying to work something out.

HODGE- Any guests on your upcoming cd?

MYZERY- Deffinetely lots of guests on Confessions. Just wait and see!

HODGE- Since you live in NY were you close to ground zero on 911? Did it have a bigger effect on you, being so close and all?

MYZERY- No comment man. I can't even describe some shit like that.

HODGE- In one of the OLD Alternative Press Magazines with ICP as the cover story it hints about DARK LOTUS. It states that the members were to be ICP, TWIZTID, and MYZERY. Were you originally in the DARK LOTUS lineup?

MYZERY- Yeah VIOLENT J told me first, then he fell out.

HODGE- During the GATHERING 2002 thier were rumors floating around that you met ESHAM and then Bedlam, and spoke with them briefly about doing collabs with each other. Any thing ever come of this?

MYZERY- Not yet! But thats all upto PONCHO. He's the one who makes shit happen.

HODGE- Although some ninjas turned on you as soon as the hatchet man was missing from the cds or after the hotel fight with TWIZTID...Alot of ninjas stuck buy your side. How do you feel about all the Juggalos who still bump your shit?

MYZERY- Juggalos are just loyal Mutherfuckers! Once they've been exposed to some talent they don't care if you're no longer with Psychopathic. It's like "fuck you" this guys got skills. I feel that. I respect that.

HODGE- Can you clear up this net rumor? Did VIOLENT J ever ask you to wear face paint during your concerts?

MYZERY- Hell nah. Our disagreements were always over music differences.

HODGE- Do you wanna clear the air on anything else before we wrap it up?

MYZERY- First I wanna congradulate PSYCHOPATHIC RECORDS and All it's artists on their success! But as for my old personal beef with TWIZTID, that should have always been between me and TWIZTID. They put the fans in the way of harms way...and I'm really bad under pressure. Hopefully I just chilled everybody elses bugged out rumors. Rumors are just rumors. Hey, according the the internet I was killed in a shoot out 3 weeks ago!!!

MYZERY- I still love all ya muthafuckas! Real music fans love real music. Click here to visit our DVD store for hard core action
