Snoopy No You’re Right Let’s Do It The Dumbest Way Possible Because It’s Easier For You Shirt, hoodie, tank top
HipHopCanada: In 2012, you made your debut on Smack/URL being one of the first non-street emcees to battle there. Did you feel you were breaking new ground at the time?
REAL DEAL: You know, it’s funny but yes and no at the same time. Looking back, I should feel like that as I got to skip the PG (proving grounds) and I had this iconic battle but at the time I was insulted by the way B-Magic was so dismissive of me. And that’s my guy to this day, but I was like I gotta be dope and I gotta address the elephant in the room which is that I am a white dude battling on URL/Smack, or whatever.
I remember seeing B-Magic the night before at the Proving Grounds event where I came to see Big K and Chilla Jones battle. I ended up speaking with B-Magic and he told me how he was going to kill me tomorrow night and how he can’t believe that they think I am going to last out here in this league. So, after that, I kinda had a chip on my shoulder for the battle. Looking back, I think it was pretty iconic, when you think about the previous URL battles with non-street battlers you think of guys like Soul Khan and Iron Solomon, so I think I was the first white dude that wasn’t Jewish. So it’s a little bit different for my battle and the reason is because Jewish people are seen as people that have had hardships in history, versus myself who is a typical white American of European descent, which is viewed differently. But the crowd was super dope and super receptive. So I had always kind of rolled my eyes when people used to tell me that I could never do it on a URL/Smack stage and I was like, “Why not?” URL crowds like dope bars and good performances. I always gotta give credit to Cortez because it was my battle with him back in 2009 at Grizzlemania that actually caught URL’s eye as Cortez started doing Smacks battles shortly after so it all worked out very well.
