(PRWEB) August 29, 2004 -- West coast hip-hop legend and gangsta rapper icon Mc Eiht has a new album coming out September 28th. 'Veterans Day is an album that true west coast music lovers have been waiting for. With in your face lyrics and strong beats from the coast mixed with an 'ol skool feel, this album is sure to make some noise in the industry.

If youre tired of the bling and you need a little bit of west coast gangsta rap, west coast original hip-hop this is the album you have been waiting for.

Eiht comes serious and his flow, on top of Chills hard core beats make this album one that needs to be talked about.

I had a chance to speak with Eiht about the album and much more.

I wanted to say that MC Eiht has been making records longer than anyone on the coast. His longevity in the business is not an accident.

One of the basic beliefs in hip-hop culture is 'keeping it real, and Eiht is as real as it gets.

With his busy schedule he took time for us and that shows he is dedicated to his fans. I got the feeling if I had questions that lasted 3 hours he would have addressed them, cause he is a real west coast Compton born and raised MC. Who values his fans and is set on a mission to bring back the west coast no matter what it takes.

This interview speaks on Veterans Day, but also Eiht addresses some things that are going on and we even cover some back in the day questions. Like I said Eiht is real and he took time for this and it isnt like he is sitting around the crib waiting for a call. The album will prove that to you.

If you dont know MC Eiht, just give him a listen. And if you know of Eiht well yea hes back and it is pure g. Enjoy the interview. I enjoyed doing it, very much. Thanks to Eiht for his time and to Phyllis Pollack/Def Press for setting it all in motion. -1

Robert: Thanks for taking time for us, I appreciated it, I know youre busy.

Eiht: No problem

Robert: Are you comfortable with people referring to you as a legend?

Eiht: Im pretty comfortable with it. Seeing that I you know, when you look at rappers now days or hip hop people with all the new stuff with all the new artist, being as I came out in '89 I guess that people would consider that as a legend. I mean I dont put myself in the same ranks as you know people like     Chuck D or people like that, you know originators but as far as west coast hip-hop is concerned, I consider myself as a little west coast legend.

Robert: With all the success you have had; how do you remain grounded and still rep the streets instead of getting caught up in the glamour side of the rap 'game?

Eiht: Well because its a tricky aspect. Basically you have to stay true to your roots, ya know. Cause the money will come and ya know youll get a nice car, nice house and all that........."

Eiht addresses many situations that are going on now. From Camron to G Unit.
We talk about west coast hip hop it's history and where it is going. Eiht gives his opinion on many things.
This is a very informative interview and his first for a web site for the new album.
He will be doing others; but remember where ya heard it first.
And be sure to pick up MC Eiht's new album 'Veteravs Day' in stores Sept.28th

We at www.ThugLifeArmy.com in our mission to keep Tupac's Legacy Alive are starting the Anti- Tupac Autopsy Photo Campaign. "

"We see there are many Tupac sites who say they rep for Tupac and then disrespect him and his mother's wishes by posting the supposedly 'leaked' picture of the Tupac autopsy. "

"This picture may or may not be real. But, it is our position that, either way, Afeni Shakur has requested that they not be put up on the web. It is a matter of RESPECT. Not only to Afeni's wishes but to Tupac, his estate and his true fans. "

"These pictures can be available to people who want to see them and request them by email, they do not have to be posted on site for everyone to see and for children to see."

"We are going to institute the Anti- Tupac Autopsy Photo Campaign. We are asking TRUE sites that rep for Tupac to remove these pictures from their sites and to add this button to their site. "

"Not a Tupac site but still support the stand taken here? Join the list and show your respect for Tupac. Any site is able to join this list as long as they truely rep and show respect for Tupac and his estate. "

"And we are requesting fans to watch for this button and only support sites that show their respect for Tupac, his mother's wishes and his estate. "

"For further info on this contact Site Staff
at ThugLifeArmy@zoomtown.com or visit our site . . PLEASE report any site on this list that is found in violation of the no autopsy photos policy. Also refer sites that TRULY rep for Tupac.
