Interview: WC on DubCNN (August 2006)

Nima at DubCNN conducted an interview with WC in August of 2006 to discuss his upcoming album, Guilty by Affiliation.

Dubcnn: What up Dub. You know us at dubcnn had to reach out to one of the OG's after chopping it up with Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, DJ Crazy Toones amongst others in the last few weeks. You've been in the game for almost two decades, and you witnessed the rise of Hip-Hop to the top of the music industry. Which period of time was your personal favorite?

Shit, back when I first stepped in the game! Cause it was so competitive. You had niggas that were there before I got down, that was still making shit happen, and when we got on, some of them niggas was still around like LL and them niggas. But back in the days when we got in there, niggas was getting down! It wasn't just about having a hot single, or coming out and representing some kind of fashion, or looking this way or looking that way. It was about the artform, niggas getting down, and not just that! When niggas got down, they had a whole package. Niggas came with identity, niggas came with concepts, niggas came with they own styles, and niggas had shows. That's something that is lacking right now in the game. Niggas don't have the whole package. Even if niggas had some of the package, it would be cool, but some of the muthafuckas now is just duplicating. Biting is at an all time high right now, it's a mad disease going around right now called Bite-A-Nigga.
