Nesby Phips Interview “QUIT PLAYIN”

By on
Posted in NEWS

  1. With the upcoming project THE LOCKOUT due November 14th what have you done in order to prepare for the release?
Phips:
I’ve been recording like crazy. Playing with mixes. Fucking with new sounds and producers. Taking bike rides through the French Quarters. Trying to top the last song I recorded…
Thats actually how this project even came about. We recorded so much for Life With Options (the album), it birthed a whole new thing. That’s what happens when you just let it happen. Divine Intervention man.
2. What about this tape is different from the last project you did?
Phips:
The last project was ‘3rd Side’, it was more or less an EP. This is a full length ‘Phipstape’ (my own format of releasing music). I got lots more of my peers involved…Working with more producers. And it’s being released in conduction with DJBooth.net
Also, the theme is in a different direction from the previous series of tapes. The title is The Lock Out. It describes where I feel like I am in the industry. I’m playing outside of the stadium right now. It’s cool cuz there’s no red tape. Such an underdog its poetic damn near. I was made for independence tho. One of the only ways to experience a Life With Options.
3. You’ve done a lot of work with the Jetlifers, will there be any features from them on The Lock Out?
Phips:
Of Course. Spitta, Smoke DZA, Corner Boy P…It’s a few of the home team playing on T.L.O. In addition to my other potnas like City Sparks, Henry McCulla, Sheffie Monroe, LG & Dinero. It’s a dope mixture of personalities on there.
4. Depending on the success of T.L.O. could there be a tour associated with it?
Phips:
Well I can only deal with confirmations so I won’t say certainly, but I got options. So stay tuned.
5. How long have you been working on The Lock Out?
Phips:
I was originally working on my album ‘Life With Options’ and the productivity was so rapid that this project, (The Lock Out) grew its own head. I switched focus to this project at the top of September and just flowed with it. It made perfect sense though. What else can make you explore a Life With Options like The Lock Out can. BOOM!
6. With your last project being received very well publicly, how do you think this one will be received?
Phips:
Since teaming up with DJBooth.net, the word has been spreading. But as far as the people, they gon’ love it!! Used to not know how listeners would perceive my sound. But after all the work I’ve done thus far, being embraced so much, and knowing how true I’ve been to the creative process, The Lock Out’s gonna make them want more Phips. Str8 up. And Life With Options will provide that…
I’m chef’n up a full course meal here man. Hope you muh fuggas is hungry. Where i’m from we go ape shit in the kitchen. Nov 14 THE LOCK OUT mang. Quit Playin.

Winningest Coach In College Football History Fired

Posted in NEWS, SPORTS

In the midst of the Jerry Sandusky sexual abuse scandal, Penn State has fired head football coach, Joe Paterno, and Penn State President, Graham Spanier. Joe Paterno has been apart of the football program at Penn State for 62 seasons (46 seasons as head coach). Paterno was one game away from breaking the record for ‘Most College Football Games Coached’ with 548 games. Defensive Coordinator, Tom Bradley takes over as intern coach for the remainder of the season. Rodney Erikson will take over as intern school president.

Thousands of Penn State students and fans have started to gather in the streets of the Penn State campus to protest the firing of Joe Paterno, and the crowd is continuing to grow. Police are in riot gear trying to maintain the upset crowd. Two arrest have been made so far. Fans have knocked over street lights, thrown rocks at the police, broken car windows, and toppled a media van. Fans have been chanting “Paterno can’t go” and “One more game”. The protesting is only getting worse as the night goes on.

“Right now, I’m not the football coach, and thats something I’m going to have to get used to..” – Joe Paterno
