Novabreaker	Damn, it's midnight over here and I just had to power up my sound system just to get the sound for this clip! And let me tell you it's no simple task and consumes quite a lot of power as well... Too shame the clip keeps buffering all the time as it's on YouTube, but thank you very much for posting.

Novabreaker	I had to stop half-way to the clip, the buffering became unbearable. Why is the interviewer just asking him questions about the state of rap?

the thing is with Gil, if you dug on him for as long as i have and many others you would agree it is with "sarcasm and humor"

But with cuts like "we've almost lost detroit", Winter in America, etc.etc. you would see exactly where he's comin from.

Don't forget Midnight Soulstice with DJ Pari and Mr. Felty http://wrir.org This Friday "Dancefloor Jazz"

Exactly...

Yet, at the same time,

he's stating the truth..

Especially with his reply,

when ask was he still going to use cocaine..

I love this man now more than ever! Staying positive, insightful, honest. I wish more "rappers" today would listen to his words - and learn the true meaning of hip-hop/rap music. I wonder where he is now..
