This interview is old as frrruuk. Nice to hear tek do the 808 trick like i always did though ;)

Hi-Tek is a genious - check his hi-teknology lp.
New one coming out in the near future as he stated in a recent interview.

Man, Blackstar needs to do another record. I think the two of them are stronger together than solo.
Especially Mos Def's last solo was half garbage IMHO.
Mos Def trying to play rock, is like that kid from 90210 trying to rap.......cheesy and unauthentic.

My favorite track from them is still the pre-LP "Fortified Live." Classic.

word, they are def the "best alliance in hip hop".

Did Hitek produce the whole joint?
His productions are always on. Imo, the worst move kweli ever made was leaving hitek. That reflection eternal album was solid front to back...probably in my top three of all time - better than the blackstar album.

don't get me wrong blackstar is classic.

J Rawls, Shawn J Period, Geology & The Beatminerz all did tracks, but Hi-Tek did the majority of it. The drums do bang hard throughout the album.

Get you a MP60, a SP1200, a DBX 160a, and some rock records for drums.
