24: What have you been up to lately?

Webbz: Just grinding homie and constantly recording.  I got my new single out "Helluva Day" produced by Midus and I'm putting the finishing touches on my new mixtape "The Underdog" hosted by DJ Kronik & Big Chuck. Other then that I'm just out here promoting, doing shows and putting in that legwork.

24: What's your situation with Czar Entertainment at the moment are you still signed to them?

Webbz: Yeah, I'm still over there, but I'm going to be a free agent in a minute. I'm going to start focusing on my own company "Currency Xchange" with the help of my homie JROC as well as looking for a new home.

24: Explain what its like for those that don't know what it is like after you get signed because most up and coming artist assume that things are easy from then on but in reality it gets harder?

Webbz: You hit it right on the head that's when the real work starts. That's when you have to go even harder then you did to get your record deal. Another thing too artist must understand they should never rely on a label to handle everything for them. You got to get out there and grind for yourself and make thing happen, get your buzz going and make yourself a priority at the label or you will never come out.

24: I heard that you performed at the Big Chuck Show what was that experience like for you and how did that situation come about?

Webbz: Shout out to Big Chuck for giving me that opportunity to do my thing! It was a great look and it happen because I was on set that day and he asked me if I wanted to perform and I ended up doing my song I have with Akon called "All I Know". Shout out to Big Chuck again for the good look

24: I know that you have your mixtape out "Watch My Moves" tell about the response you have been getting from the fans?

Webbz: It's been great the streets are fucking with me hard and I'm putting my city on the map. I got fans from Fort Pierce to Europe because of my mixtapes.

24: How did your record with Akon come about and how big of a blessing was that for you to do a song with someone like him?

Webbz: Right place at the right time, I was working with Ron Lawerence, he made "Hypnotized" for Biggie, "Where I'm From" for Jay-Z and he had the track with the hook on it already at the time Akon was working with Czar so he made a call to Akon and made it happen.

24: Tell me about some other artist you would like to work with in the near future?

Webbz: Andre 3000, UGK, T.I., Young Jeezy, NAS, Hov and Kanye that's my dream list.

24: I recently heard your song you did about the statement that was going around about Hip Hop being dead speak about that a little?

Webbz: I was just tired of opening magazines and reading websites, seeing rappers from up north especially dissing Southern music. So I decided to speak on it and that's how the song "Beg to Differ" came about.

24: If you had the chance to choose what major label you could sign to what label would you choose and why?

Webbz: DEF JAM, just look at their track record Rick Ross, Young Jeezy, and Ludacris. Plus they have been doing this since the 80's till now and I feel like they help make you a household name and that's what I want to be branded.

24: Any last words you want to say to the readers and the fans?

Webbz: "Watch My Moves" the mixtape in the streets right now. Look out for my new single mixtape "The Underdog" hosted by DJ Kronik & Big Chuck coming soon. Log on to WWW.MYSPACE.COM/WORLDWIDEWEBBZ; shout out to Miramar, 441 to University. My fairway niggaz, Collect Gang, Prime, Lord Zoe we out chea!
