Dos is not like most rappers in the game, as he promotes positivty. For the past eleven years, he has been heavy in the underground.br /br /But, he hopes he can break into the big time late this year and into 2011. Among other things, he feels a good education is what people need in order to make it in life. A few minutes ago, Dos Dilligence did a phone interview with Hip Hop Vibe and he opened up on a number of things.br /br /HHV: How long have you been in the game?br /DD: Since 1999, I began as a beatmaker.br /HHV: Are you currently signed to a label?br /DD: I am not signed to a label, instead I have a few partnerships, my main one is with Jason Cook.br /HHV: Could you tell us who Jason Cook is?br /DD: He is the man who has helped me each step of the way with my career.br /HHV: How did you two meet?br /DD: We met when my parents sent my brother and I to the Boys amp; Girls Club and Jason was a director. He helped me with my schoolwork and he encouraged me to go to college.br /HHV: It is rare for a rapper to talk about going to college. How important do you feel education is?br /DD: Education is very important because you are taught a little bit about everything. You also get to meet new people you would not have met otherwise. Plus, when you are taught a little bit, you learn not to fall for every little trick.br /HHV: How have you been influenced by No Limit, Cash Money, and Lil Wayne?br /DD: I have a lot of respect for them. They are all very talented artists and they are all great businessmen.br /HHV: Before rap, what did you like to do?br /DD: I used to make tracks, that is my passion, but I ended up rapping when my beats were not as popular as I would have liked for them to be. I did not want wasted beats so I used them myself.br /HHV: Do you do mixtapes or albums?br /DD: There is no classification, I make original music, but it has not been pushed the way I want it to be due to financial limitations. Most of my music was created alongside Jason Cook.br /HHV: What was your childhood like?br /DD: My childhood was different than most as my father was Nigerian and my mother was Creole, but I was still raised right with family values instilled in me.br /HHV: What kind of music do you listen to?br /DD: I listen to all types of music, anything with a message and a beat. I listen to Techno, Country, Rock, and of course Rap.br /HHV: Ten years from now, in December 2020, where do you see yourself?br /DD: At that point, I see myself as a successful businessman being the head of a major conglomerate and if hip hop is still hot I will still be rapping and making beats.br /HHV: Well, that’s all we have for you Dos Dilligence, we hope to hear good things from you.br /DD: Thank you so much!div class=”blogger-post-footer”div class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”
