DX: What’s next for you?
NB: Crooked I and I are doing a project tentatively titled New Breed. We’ve been talking about it for a month and a half. I’m also gonna do Untold Scriptures Volume 2, the follow-up. It’s been received so well, people love it, so I figured let me stay with the name. I people to see progression. A lot of labels are hollering too, and I don’t know what’s gonna come of that. I’m gonna be in people’s faces. I’m not gonna be one of those artists that you hear about, drops a project, and ends up on the milk carton in XXL. [Laughs]

DX: G Rap protégés became Nas, MF Grimm, Papoose, do you put yourself as the next protégé that’s going to do big things?
NB: Only time will tell. [Laughs] I can’t call it. G personally feels I have as much ability as anybody he’s ever worked with. He cosigns me heavy. He passed jewels that were imperative to me, especially in my progression. Only time will tell, but I know one thing – I’m not gonna let him down.
