The Chef sits down lays back with HipHopChronicle to talk about a variety of things.
In the first part of the interview, Rae talks about why he put Criminology 2 as a buzz record. The Chef tells me he’s in talks with people from Hollywood to do movies and revealed that he’s planning to drop a documentary to coincide with the release of the album. We talk about lyrics in Hip Hop and the importance of it to an emcee like him. He gives his main ingredients to being a dope emcee and having longevity. And to end the first part, Rae lists the people and albums that he feels people should study to learn more about Hip Hop.

Question peoples…
What does he mean when talking of what it takes to be an emcee, that you should have years of experience on the blocks?
I would hate to get what he said misunderstood as sellin dope.
Im not knockin raekwon or drug dealers or nothing but, i think shit is wack if you gotta sell rocks, or something to emcee.
he can chill whatever fuckin way he wants. chill out.
Daill1, what Rae said is just that you need to know how it is in the streets. You think he’d be talking the way he does, rhymin the way he is if he came from somewhere else?
