The Official "Ask Kez a Question" Thread

[Kez]

Not to go off-topic, but your music (to me, anyway) seems much better than typical Brit-Hip-Hop, since you obviously have a better grasp of song structure, content, rhythm and perspective. I wouldn't doubt potential underground success, and as far as I can tell, you should be able to live off of music just by doing a few shows per month, and dropping the occasional EP.

Commercial success isn't likely because the current state of Hip-Hop is pathetically limited. If this were the early 90s, it would be easy for you to stir up a storm in the industry.

Haha well thanks I appreciate that a fuckin lot, but you seem to be one of few who thinks that.

I'm not particularly bothered about going mainstream to be honest, even just doing the odd show would be awesome to me. I just like the music, if there were people in my area who were in that kind of scene you know I would be trying to get the fuck in there. There's actually one slowly emerging, so soon I may end up actually getting to do some shit. But I dunno yet. There just seems to be like no audience for it where I am. Sometimes it makes me want to fucking move somewhere else to try it. But I don't have the means to do so and wouldn't know where to begin.

You just have to dream and set your mind to it. Shoot for the moon, if you miss you're still amongst those stars.

If I was you I'd try to find a job in the music industry regardless, wether it be something in journalism or on the management side. Hell, even the event industry goes hand in hand with the music industry. That way you'll at least do something you're passionate about instead of working a 9 to 5 job in an office which will leave you braindead.

I studied Journalism at University, but I fucking hated it, so obviously that kind of side of stuff aint for me. I'm just interested in making music to be honest, I don't care about all that other shit, so I couldn't really do it. If I ever get any audience, it's almost certain to be underground hip hop fans. And yeah, it's not like i'm giving up lol. I will never be able to give up, it just aint possible. This is just somethin I always do, it's in me. I'm just looking realistically.

Out of curiosity how much would you want a future in hip hop and strive to achieve it?

If yes then what is/are your biggest stumbling blocks currently?

It's the only thing i've ever really wanted to do. I know it may seem a strange idea, but it's the truth. I honestly feel like I do whatever I can; but when you are in a situation where everyone throws nothing but negativity your way, you are bound to be discouraged, and I think that shows in a lot of my more recent stuff actually. Nobody here wants to let me fucking get anything. The hip hop scene is full of grime which is fine but it's just not me. I know one guy who does what I consider real hip hop in my area. One guy. There's a bunch of guys who support the local underground music here, the Fb group's at about 60, which aint much but yeah. They startin to put on shows, so hopefully i'm gonna try and get on that shit. If I do, you guys will certainly know about it cause the shit gets filmed. But past that there is like nothing here.

People are just ignorant, and aside from that a lot of the people in my personal life seem to just want me to fail in it too. I have family that insult my music behind my back, friends that make Facebook groups making fun of me and shit. At a certain point you do start to lose hope, and that point happened to me a long fuckin time ago. But yet I still never stopped doing music, hence why ever since Breakout my shit has been so much more pissed off. Cause of this situation.

How do you feel about people who talk about music 24/7 ? I understand it might be your hobby or business, but i'm talking about people that basically have nothing to talk about other than music, people who if a subject other than music opened in a conversation they will sit silently without saying a word until the word "music" come back ?

I've honestly never met anyone like that lmao but they sound like douches

I have to ask this : who and how started the pony trend?

I remember the first time I saw this forum I could not understand why these eminem fans were posting pictures of ponies,but I had seen before the official forum of eminem and despite all this I thought that this forum would be better...

I assume you're talking about specifically how it started on here?

Because I brought it here, is the answer to that. It probably would have ended up here eventually anyway in the same way "u mad" n shit did, because a lot of people view it as another Internet meme. But I decided to start posting it here cause I thought people should know about it. And i'm pleased to say that some agree with me.

Now if you mean how did it start in the first place, as in how did I find it? People started posting it on 4Chan. I saw it there. There was a link to the first episode, I checked it out, and became hooked.

And quit talking like it's a bad thing, it really aint haha.

Okay then .. here's another question

Aight, so I was like 13. At the time I had really really long hair, it was kind of my emo phase I suppose you could say. That isn't really the point although it's still quite embarrassing to look back on, but yeah. At this time in school I was the joke of the whole year basically, I used to get trolled and pissed off easy as fuck just by people making a joke. Took myself incredibly seriously.

How did you socialize after this point of time ?

Well part of it is that all of us were really young at the time, we were all 13, so with people growing up a bit obviously shit like that stops to a degree. Also I started just going along with most jokes and finding them actually funny once I grew up a bit myself. To be honest I never made any conscious decision to start "pretending" it was funny or anything, just over time that's what happened. I guess the way I used to act is to be blamed on puberty. Just acting like that I eventually found a great group of friends.

Word @ Killa

It seems like a possible location change would be beneficial, if possible. If not, fuck what people think and just take the chance. It looks like that's your outlook already though, I just hope your situation takes a more positive turn. I know from experience that constant negatively from family members can be discouraging, but don't let it stop you from doing what you like to do. Getting as far away from that as possible can be a great thing, or at least it was for me. It puts a lot into perspective, more than you'd expect. I think you're intelligent enough to know all of this already, but figured I'd say it anyway.

Anyway, I guess I should ask a question now.
Did you ever take a page from Killa's book and clownface a female?


Oh, and the appeal of Charlie Sheen is that he's mental and completly retarded, yet his views on most things makes sense.
Also, I haven't had the chance to fully listen to your album yet due to personal events, but plan to in a day or so. I may even do it tonight. It'd get my mind off of a lot of shit.

Yeah that's cool, there's no real rush and I would rather people listen to it and comment on it when they actually feel like doing it as opposed to feeling forced to.

The most badass thing you ever done ?

You know I regret to say I can't think of much "badass" stuff i've done, lol

What are your thoughts on the current economical state of England, and do you find that it's somehow Americas fault?

[ThomasAguanis]

Do you like watching the old school pony show or just the new one?

[Devil'sAdvocate]

do u like me?

[Kez]

Do you like watching the old school pony show or just the new one?

Just the new one. It's written better, animated better, and most importantly the way they've done it makes it so that it's approachable by anyone. The others don't do that.

What are your thoughts on the current economical state of England, and do you find that it's somehow Americas fault?

It sucks balls. I can't get a fucking job for shit. And no I don't blame America, laying blame on other people (or in this case, countries) is fucking lame.

do u like me?

Haha of course man why do you ask? Sometimes I disagree with what you say but you're still a funny guy

[Devil'sAdvocate]

good to know man.

Does dictions username offend you because it is not capitalized?

Actually it is strange, the only other person I remember without a capital is dead prez. Could there be a connection?
