MY BAD!!!!!!!!1

So The Dedication 3 mixtape is definately out. Go get it. I'm looking for a copy of it right now! Please forgive my last uninformed post.

Dedication 3

Alrighty then! The Dedication 3 mixtape is...well I don't know when it's coming out, and I'm sorry for not doing the research, it may very well be out already, I just don't know. But either way, I hear that the song I'm about to share with you is on it. It features Drake, and you know that I've become a serious fan of his. Stuntin iz a habit!

Rasheeda Da GA Peach

If you don't know about this woman already, then I feel sorry for you being so out of the loop. Luckily for you however, I am here to bring you out of that musical ignorance. First, let's start with an introduction, a brief bio if you will. Then we'll get into the interview, which Rasheeda was kind enough to take time out of her schedule to bless me with. (Thanx a milli !!!)

Rasheeda, the famous female MC hailing from Atlanta, Georgia has been cranking out hits since early 2000. As a teenager while her friends were transitioning from Barbie dolls to make-up, Rasheeda was busy writing rhymes and perfecting her craft. Rasheeda has always ruled as the Queen of Crunk but she has also established herself as one of the sexiest women in hip- hop.
Rasheeda started out as a member of the teenage hip- hop trio Da Kaperz, which was signed to D-LO Entertainment and is still who Rasheeda is signed to till this day. When D-LO decided to launch her solo career they joined forces with Motown Records and released her solo, debut album Dirty South in 2001. The album contained the dirty south anthem, “Do It (Do Da Damn Thang)” with Pastor Troy. Her follow up was 2002’s “A Ghetto Dream” released independently thru D-Lo Entertainment. That album featured collaborations with the superstars of crunk, Lil Jon and the Eastside Boyz and secured Rasheeda’s place as “The Queen of Crunk”.

OKAY!! Now time for the interview!

Carter2Carter: How long have you been doing music?

Rasheeda: I been doing music almost 13 yrs.

C2C: How did you get started in it?

Rasheeda:...I met some friends that had a love for music...we was like we should become a group [Da Kaperz] and take things seriously...we spoke to Frost at D-Lo, he said we would be the first group...that's how it started, and I've been with D-Lo since then to now...

C2C: Is that when you realized that rapping was what you really wanted to do as your career?

Rasheeda: That's when I said this is what I think I should be doing...

C2C: Do you think it was more dificult getting to where you are right now because you are a female MC?

Rasheeda: I definitely think so..it's a male dominated industry...with the success of the females that we have had, it doesn't nearly compare to the males...it's alot more difficult for us getting in and gaining respect...

C2C: Who or what is your biggest inspiration?

Rasheeda: My family and fans, they inspire me to keep going. Being with the record company that's been behind me the entire time...

C2C: What do you like most about being in the music business?

Rasheeda: What makes me extremely happy is performing and fans hollering the lyrics back...

C2C: What do you like least about the music business?

Rasheeda: The least is the fakeness...the business can become shady..

C2C: What would you say is your favorite song that you've recorded?

Rasheeda: ...let me think, "My Bubble Gum" is one of my favorites..."Bend Over Touch Toes", "GA Peach"

C2C: What's your favorite song of all time?

Rasheeda: I dont have one honestly, I go through phases...it just kind of flips with me...I just love music

C2C: Do you have a favorite musical artist?

Rasheeda:...Not really, not like that. There are specific people I will support no matter what...


C2C: If you had to choose 3 albums to listen to, what would they be?

Rasheeda: Mary J Blige "My Life", Biggie "Ready to Die"...I dont have 3, I would like Outkast, Kanye's "Graduation", and Jay-Z's "Black Album"


C2C: When it's all said and done what do you hope to have accomplished with your music?

Rasheeda:...my goal at this point....I just want to make a mark...


C2C: I you weren't doing music right now, what do you think you would be doing?

Rasheeda: Real estate real heavy...I buy properties and rent them and sell them...

C2C:What do you like better, performing or recording?

Rasheeda: ...It works hand in hand, I love them both, you've got to record the great music to perform it...It's nothing like performing...

C2C: How do repare for a show?

Rasheeda: I just get in the city, get relaxed and get focused, and try to do my research on the place I'm at.


C2C: Are there any other genres of music that you really like?

Rasheeda: R&B of course, I like pop music to a certain extent...Estelle and Amy Whinehouse they have a lot of soul


C2C: Do you have any plans to ever venture away from music and do other things?

Rasheeda: Of course...I love fashion...but I want ot do something a little different...I would love to do jewelery, shoes, handbags..I love hosting...getting on the radio, talking to your city...I've also been writing for other artists..

C2C: Are there any artists that you would really love to work with?

Rasheeda: I would love to work with Kanye, I would love to work with Andre 3000, with Ne-Yo, Beyonce, Keisha Cole…I look at it like those things will come if they’re meant to come…

C2C: Who is one new artist that you feel is going to have a lasting impact on hip hop right now?

Rasheeda: I think Wayne is definitely putting himself in a place to go down with some of the greats…I think Kanye is doing it too though, and T-Pain is doing it too. ,,I really can’t say one person, there are a couple of people who are impacting hip hop…

C2C: How do you feel when people keep saying that hip hop is dead?

Rasheeda: I think they stopped saying that because we damn sure proving that it’s not…anything as big and powerful as hip hop music is going to sit at the top of the rollercoaster and its going to come down the rollercoaster…

C2C: How do you feel when you hear people try to place the blame on hip hop for the way young people are behaving?

Rasheeda: I kind of blame that on certain people who don’t sit down and explain certain things to their kids and sit down and watch the videos and with them and let them know the realities from the things that aren’t real…

C2C: Do you feel obligated to be a role model because you’re in a position where younger people can look up to you?

Rasheeda: I feel like I can’t please everybody all the time…I’m doing me and at the same time I’m drawing a class and respect line, but one thing I do know is everybody is not going to agree with me and my music and the thing that I say and the things that I do…

Mrs. Officer

Check out the making of the video for "Mrs. Officer"!
Click HERE.
Looks like its going to be everything we expected of it.

What's Going On?

I haven't been hearing much about anyone lately. I did read a short article about Beyonce not wanting to sell the wedding pics to any magazines. I can understand that. I mean weddings are supposed to be special and sacred. However, both she and Jay know that the fans want to see them all. At the very least could we get a pic of the 2 exchanging vows, or something?

NEW NEW FOR YOU

Coming very soon to all you great members of this audience will be Carter 2 Carter: The Webisodes. This will allow you to SEE some of the things that I write about, such as the "On the Campus" and "Who Got Next" series. "Who Got Next" took a little break, but will be back in full effect in a couple of weeks. Be on the lookout for bigger and better things from this site!

Gangsta Tigers

I think this may the funniest video since "South Central Park"
So this has nothing to do with Jay or Wayne, but we all need a good laugh every now and then.
This one is brought to you by Katt Williams. This is the "clean" version but you can easily find the unedited on if you wan to hear it.
Enjoy guys!!!

Let It Begin!!!

We will either have the first president of African American descent, OR the first female VP. Either way, this is big stuff. I will say that I have casted my vote. If you have the ability to vote today, you should definitely do the same. No matter who you vote for, just make sure you do it. It is well worth it. Today shall prove to be truely interesting.

ARREST HBV!
