When is the poisen pen mixtape being released?

is that myspace really yours?
what do you think of the commericialisation of rap, do you think hiphop shows disrespect and injustice to its pioneers (rakim krs one kool g rap) by endorsing this wack shit>

ohhh shit, this is just great, alright so hmm.. here are my questions :

How do you think you have developed lyrically from the album here to save you all untill today?

-

how do you respond to those who think/are afraid that your game will become weaker if you start working with more commersialized rappers?

-

Where do you see yourself in three or four years?

-

Are you in contact anything with your old group member Kaoz?

-

have you thought about starting a new group?

-

Have you thought about remastering the track that you made a long time ago called "why'd you wanna go there?"

-

If art of origin still was alive today as a group, what do you think it would have been like?

-

In a documentary about Onyx, your name was mentioned with biggie's and nas about dissing 2pac, and Sticky Fingaz replied "Chino XL ain't nobody, chino who?" And in some of your tracks you have written stuff like "ANY STICKY DRAMA BEEF PHYSICALLY IMA STRIKE BACK" and in a freestyle you quoted Sticky himself with "every moment i allow you to exist is 'a gift that's why it's called the present", what is this all about, how do you feel about sticky fingaz?

-

Are you planning on working anything with ras kass again?

-

Which 5 rappers do you think are the best, lyrically today?


-

Name one rapper that you think is close or on the same level lyrically as you

-

In one of your later songs with Pitbull you mentioned that Jay Z is trying to sign you, can you tell us some more about that?


-

are you in any contact with freddie foxxx? Have you ever thought about recording a track with him?

-

Much love from CHI-TOWN CHINO-XL. 1.) Why is it when these other mc's dissed 2PAC it was ok but when you dissed him you was sort of blacked balled in hip hop? 2.)Were the media/rappers scared of you because you were the only one to stand by your comments about 2PAC. 3.)

Has any major record labels (cool) tried to sign you? 7.)Are you cool with BIG DADDY KANE? 8.( How did you feel about the VH1 hiphop honeers show?.................Much love COOL-V CHI TOWN

Got a quastion!

Are you really gonna be cutting off ya cornrows?

What do you think about all the commercial hip-hop at the moment? Any artists you like?

there a rumor that eminem bit your style to give his flow "character". how do you feel about this particular rumor?

i read somewhere that you were going to drop "controverses" as mainstream album and "poison pen" as an underground album. is "controverses" still coming out?

when the hell is the website coming up? lol (you don't have to answer that one)

"Controversus" was the initial name of the commercial album, which is now called "Chi"...

Out of all the MCs you have worked with so far, which ones did you feel you had the best connection with both personally and on the track?

how many albums do you see yourself putting out?

What is your favourite Chino xl song?

When can we expect Chi and the poisen pen mixtape? I've been waiting for ages to hear a new chino album. I still play I told you so as though I bought it last month.. classic...

That's my main question right there... but I got another one, regarding the Poison Pen mixtape ...

Chino, you said in an interview a while back that "Poison Pen" floated around the concept of a kid writing things and then what he writes comes true. Now that "Poison Pen" is coming out as a mixtape, will this concept still be in affect? And if it is, can you elaborate on it a little more? Is thw whole album based on that concept a la Pink Floyd's "The Wall"?

Are any of the recently released/leaked tracks from you (such as "Heavenly Father") going to be on your new album "Chi"?

updated my post and asked a question about that sticky fingaz thing, I want to know more about it!

I'm looking for a sports scholorship in america if i get one, can i sleep over at yours??

kloq

1:) Do you feel that the industry has had a vendetta vs you because of past things (2 Pac Beef) in the past?

2:) How much pressure is it to keep hitting us of with top class lyrics, in terms of punchclines/metaphours?

3:) Lyircally your up there but people do judge your flow, if you could pick a flow to have who would you have/pick?

4:) How long does it take to write a punchline/battle verse comapred to a story track?

5:) If you could pick some mc's today who dont get much "shine" in the media that you rate as mc's who would you choose?

6:) Why do you feel that you havent sold as much as your skills are worth?

7:) Do you feel you do your fans justise in what YOU as an MC give us in terms of Information?

1. Seeing as how you are a big dude and obviously spend a lot of time in the gym, What do you do in your gym program to stay fit? How long have you been going to the gym? Can you really bench 500 pounds as you claim in Watch Closer? If you really can, you should be in the Olympics and winning some gold medals!

2. Do your daughters speak in punchlines?

3. Explain your tattoo...

4. Have you ever thought of coming down to Australia and doing a promo tour? (I noticed that song you did with Celebral Athropy or whatever, I don't really like Aussie hip-hop, even though I live here)...I reckon that if you did so, you would attract a lot of attention...I can't be promoting you to everybody I know!

5. Can I make a cameo in your next video? Where do I send my contact info?

2. Do your daughters speak in punchlines? - Ahahaha

^^ Hey man i live in Australia too...I recon the Cerebral Atrophy song was nice, I really liked the first guy.

where bouts in australia you live?

Melbourne...

Some of these questions have already been answered in other interviews, and you don't really wanna hear the same old stuff. Last time he got asked which MCs were underrated...he said himself and Canibus. We also know he loves Kool G Rap. So that seems kinda pointless. Film appearances can mostly be found on IMDB.com, and he's probably not permitted to talk about what's not on there. Actors and actresses - do you really care? I don't personally think he's gonna want to talk about his gym habits, or what (if any) supplements he's been taking. Just read up on it yourself. He's an artist, not a model.

Here's what I'd like to know:


What are your greatest achievements in life?

What would you most like to be remembered for when you're gone?

What did you want to be when you were growing up?

Do you find yourself maturing lyrically? Your recently released/leaked songs are a lot more introspective. Do you find it difficult as an artist to balance those more personal tracks with the more battle-oriented rhymes while still maintaining your core fans?

What do you think is your most defining and unique characteristic, that sets you apart? Not necessarily as an artist, but as a person.

What is your happiest memory?


These are just my thoughts. I would like to know more about the person than the music, as I feel that's the purpose of an interview. Giving fans a chance to see the person behind the person they respect and admire.

great questions everyone, more more!

Actually, on a more-musical-but-slightly-less-relevant note, I'd like to know how many people have 'confronted' him (other than 2Pac) for things he's said on record. Because if he's attending film premieres and shit like that, he's bound to have bumped into someone he's shitted on...And these people have a habit of hearing stuff through the grapevine.

I just found these: http://www.rapindustry.com/chino_xl.htm

They have a lot of the questions people have already asked. Note the people he says he admires, the Hollywood thing, and Poison Pen. If this is one of the few chances when we get to ask the questions, you want to ask things that nobody else is going to. I mean, questions like "who don't you like in the industry right now?" are fine, but when you think about it, a) If he dislikes someone in the industry, chances are it'll be in his music b) what are you hoping for? He's hardly gonna be a fan of G-Unit, and he probably isn't just gonna call them out for no reason anyway.

Questions like 'where do you think hip hop is going?' have been tackled by every rapper, and they all seem to fall into two categories "it's just more diverse than it used to be, it doesn't mean it's bad, or more violent" and "hip hops in a state of emergency". Be original.

ohhh since we all know he loves Kool G Rap..

what does he feel towards the rumours circulating that 50 cent is trying to sign g rap.

Ask him to hook us up with a quality version of the Messiah

Yea I'm Gonna See About Get Some Exclusives For Ya'll, Snippets Off The New Album Maybe...

Yeah, I wanna know if that's for real.

1. You've recorded so much stuff over the years...if it aint gonna come out officially, why not leak it on the net for all your die hard fans that have been patiently waiting for ever?

2. Are we ever gonna here you kill it over a new primo beat?

3. I know the west coast shows you a lot of love, but how can you consider yourself an westcoast artist if you from jersey?

4. How come you never put out an album through an independent label like koch, what stop you from doing something like that?

5. Chino & jay-z over a kanye beat...will it ever happen?

6. What labels offered you deals, and why did you turn them down?

7. I emailed jay-z twice about signing you, and next thing I know, I here about it on latino's stand up single....how accurate is that statement?

8. On your commerical album, are you gonna gear some stuff towards the females....are you thinking about female features for the album, maybe christina milian a fellow jersey artist?

9. What would you say if 50 or eminem tried to sign you...would you take that offer...if not why?

10. Who is the top 5 in the game right now other than yourself of course...

Hannibal Trump
