interview with Dre Marshall

Check out this interview Zee had with Dre Marshall a few days ago about the "Before Self-Destruction" mixtape.

Zee: How long have you and Mo known each other?

Dre Marshall: No doubt, Ok so let's see. Me & Mahogany have been working together in upstate NY for the past two years or so, maybe three. We do two annual events together. One, being Kingdombound, which is every August in Upstate N.Y., and also Cityfest which is in November in Upstate N.Y. Also, my mentor Michael Peace has adopted Mahogany as a daughter, so we always talk and vibe, she's a real sister!

Zee: That's what's up. How did the idea of this mixtape come together though and ultimately end up with Sean Blu? Dude is the Christian Hip Hop mixtape king!

DM: This whole thing actually started with DJ Links who just goes by "Links" now (laughs)

Zee: I'mma put his government out there! Whaddup Kevin! (laughs)

DM: He heard the album before most, and really has been a good brother and friend. So he passed the album off to Sean Blu and Derrick Woods. Derrick woods aka Chicagorilla is a grassroots marketing guru, and really good friend now, [he] suggested...well insisted, that I link up with Sean Blu and do a mixtape! Well I linked with Blu and he's a workhorse!

Zee: What was it like working with Mr. Sean Blu?

DM: He's amazing and really makes it a "mixtape." Most Christians don't do "mixtapes," they do compilations!

Zee: Is the mixtape all original production or what?

DM: The beats have some original stuff, but also alot of familiar stuff, yep....we Jackin beats!

Zee: Well, good thing it's free then! (laughs)

DM: Mahogany goes in on some old school stuff as well as some new stuff. She remixed 9 to 5, and I remixed her "Hate this Life."

Zee: Word? Can't wait to hear that. 9 to 5 is my joint! You and Canton ripped that! I know you said you did shows together, but what was it like working with each other? You and Mahogany, that is.

DM: In doing this album, there is a mutual respect for our styles and abilities. We wanted to collab anyways, but thought this would be a great way to cross promote our albums, seeing as though the name is different, represent the same thing, which is being transformed! So you will be "Morphed" in "Room819"

Zee: "Before Self-Destruction" Who came up with that album title?

DM: The name is all Blu! He came up with it after he heard the material, and like I said, he's a genius, so you trust what he does!

Zee: Amen. Finally, when does the album come out and where can people get it?

DM: June 2nd for free download! Exclusively at DaSouth.com

Zee: Oh word? Well, thanks! We appreciate the love! Hey, we didn't ask them to do that y'all! (laughs) That's what's up.
