Doggie Diamonds Interviews Boom P.

So I was watching this Smack DVD one day and out of no where appears this kid rhyming like no one I’ve heard in years. So my initial reaction was like, “yo, who the fuck is that?” Then I noticed the area and I’m like. “that’s the hood right there”. So less than a week later I’m the car with my partner M.Reck and I’m like, “let’s go get one of those banging Marcus Garvey heros (sandwich)”. While we’re riding down the block, I’m thinking, this is where that kid Boom P was at in that video. We pull up to the store and guess who’s standing right on the corner? Boom P… I hop out the car and straight up tell him (Boom P) he’s going to live a long time because we was just talking about him. We exchanged numbers, played phone tag for a few years (literally) and here we are today...

With Everyone Saying Hip Hop Is Dead, What Inspires You To Record?
The underdogs. I think all the good music is in the streets. I’m not inspired by the rap game right now because you could tell by just listening to alot of these niggas that they ain’t got no love for the music. I’ll never knock the next nigga hustle but the only thing that
