Pusha T sounded off moments before his recent New York City performance,
about the RIAA mixtape controversy, disappointing album sales and what”s next
for Clipse. "It”s always good to perform, it”s always good to see the reaction
from the crowd, the album was highly anticipated. New York has been a great place
for us and we think this show is gonna be crazy," Pusha said before hitting
the stage.
Reflecting on Clipse” personal success on the mixtape circuit,
Pusha T also spoke out about the arrests of DJ Drama and DJ
Don Cannon earlier in the month. "I feel Drama”s arrest is fucked
up. We ride with you Drama, we support any and everybody that”s in the struggle.
Once you”re in the industry you think the struggle is over, but as you can see
and Drama and Cannon can see, it”s not. We stand by you. It”s fucked up. There”s
real crimes out there and we”re just making music. We”re gonna be doing this
mixtape thing until the day we die, we”re gonna be throwing them joints out
and it is what it is, come and get us."
While Hell Hath No Fury has been ranked by many as one of the best albums of
2006, sales have been a disappointment for the duo but the group continues to
lay plans for 2007. "We”re not really watching the charts like that. We”re
not happy with the album sales but we have no control over that. We just keep
doing what we do," Pusha said before revealing that the duo are currently
laying down music for their next mixtape, "We Got It 4 Cheap Vol. 3: The
Spirit of Competition." "We just think we better. We”re also shooting
a movie Hell Hath No Fury the movie/musical, with a soundtrack that”s all Re-Up
Gang music. It”s gonna be a Re-Up Gang Year in 2007!"
