After months of speculation about his career and being retired. Tha Ufo has recently returned to the blogosphere and the hip hop scene. After releasing two classic albums that were slept on Tha Ufo told us via text that he was about to work on films and was leaving music alone.
Now we bring to you the long awaited interview entering the mind of Tha Ufo:
HerDadHatesMe: So man how's it been?
UFO: Crazy as usual man...
HDHM: Thanks for the interview...i know you don't do a lot of these.
UFO: Yeah man i am antisocial homie what can I say.
HDHM: So you said you were retiring why?
UFO: Just from music. I wanted to make films to some of my albums. I still will. I dropped 13 mixtapes man. People need visuals man.
HDHM: So what made you want to do number 14?
UFO: Just the feeling of being in the booth man. I do a lot of drugs and have been addicted to a lot as well but none as powerful as making music. I am kind of used to it now.
HDHM: What is the theme behind this one?
UFO: I am making an LP that a skateboarder puts on as soon as he wakes up and grabs a blunt, showers, grabs his board and skates to all day. That is the point behind this LP. It is an LP that i think skateboarders will understand and my emo pothead stoners will understand as well. I know my fan base...all three of them....and will continue to give them what i think is good emo hip hop.
HDHM: Production wise who's on it? Because Snobs and Prudes was a very well produced album and so was Yuck. Your last two lp's were very slept on but spectacular lyrically and production wise.
UFO: Yeah and you guys have yet to review snobs and prudes man.
HDHM: I will not lie we've been busy man.
UFO: As far as production goes I got of course Black Milk on there. I can't say enough about Black Milk. He is to me what Primo is to nas man. I really can't put into words what he brings out of me in that booth man no homo. Ski beats, Q Tip, and the rest you'll have to wait and see.
HDHM: Why name the LP Ice Cream Skate Team?
UFO: Well that is my favorite shoe to skate in. I watched the ice cream skate team vol. 1 so many times and as a black skater i really dig that crew man. I don't think they understand the impact they had on black skateboarders man and i wanted to show my appreciation to them with this LP.
HDHM: You recently released a track on twitter beefing with Broke, a battle rapper from stockton, how did that come about?
UFO: I love twitter man. You get to see everyone's bitchassness up close and personal. Like Broke I met him through twitter from my homegirl Trice who i also met on twitter. He seemed cool and all but when i asked him to collab he told me no....he said he wasn't digging my music. Cool...everyone is entitled to an opinion. I ain't really speak to him after that. Then one day out of nowhere he makes a comment on me and Trice roasting my ex girlfriend. Really was no of his buissness, sideline nigga you know? Then two seconds later he says he hates emo people. Sub tweeting. He knows i am an emo hip hop artist. Anyway, I ask him about it. He gets real disrespectful....then he starts calling me names and shit. I asked him if he wanted to battle, an audio battle. He's a battle rapper you know? He says he's too big for that. Now that's funny. Then he keeps making comments about me disrespecting me after he agreed he ain't want to battle. So i took thirty minutes and killed him with a song called Pop bottles.
HDHM: Did he respond?
UFO: He linked a youtube video from tosh.0 and said that was his response. If you don't know what Tosh.0 is it's a show on comedy central which showcases funny internet films.
HDHM: Why did he do that?
UFO: I don't know. Either he couldn't get in the booth and decided that he had to do something and thought that was clever...or he tapped out. I don't know. Don't really care either. He's a clown to me. He was scared to battle me. Period. This guy sat and argued four hours on twitter with me but won't get in the booth.
HDHM: What about the hello kela situation?
UFO: I am done with that too. Another ex girlfriend bitter man. I can't help that shit. That's the story of my life man.
HDHM: If you died today what would you want people to know about you?
UFO: I am not crazy. I am a comedian man. 99% of the time i am joking. I also would like to be known as a artist at the end of the day that commited to emo hip hop man. I didn't go out talking about guns and killing people in my music or rims and shit. I did this shit from the heart and gave you my life on wax man. That's what i want people to know about me. I am really just misunderstood man. People don't understand me. Girls, dudes, it don't matter i am rarely able to relate to people that aren't artist themselves or aren't emotional like me.
HDHM: So what's after this?
UFO: This trully is my last LP before i go into shooting films man. Then i will follow up with another LP called The Celebrity Experiment. That will be like my first offical LP in my opinion. I have kind of had this planned out for awhile. Anyway, i am shooting my skateboard sponsor me film and music video's and i will probably be low key for awhile music wise. I will be promoting the Slut Clothing Line and shooting films man.
HDHM: What are you listening to lately?
UFO: Man the homie Cage, Curren$y, Wiz Khalifa, Max B, and myself.
HDHM: Thanks for your time and we can't wait for more news about you man.
UFO: No problem I don't mind working with real niggaz man.
