Smigg Dirtee 619 say it backwards
When I first met Smigg Dirtee “he changed my life” hahaha (I always tease him about this) we was at the “Yadada Movie” shoot and I was getting a shout out from him on my camcorder. He said “what company are you with?” I said “sydeways” and he said “no your not I know sydeways and your not it” and I said “well we are different” and then he said “yeah!? Well change your name” lol and so within a week I changed my company name to Supa Savy Ent.
Smigg Dirtee a Sacramento native now resides in San deigo. He’s on his grind tough and has many projects in the works. I got the chance to talk to him about the projects coming up and he answered some questions submitted to me from fans.
Me:
Hey smigg dirtee… how are things going with you?
Smigg Dirtee:
Things are wonderful.. duh..
Me:
Lol okay! What’s new? Any new projects in the works?
Smigg Dirtee:
Actually, I’ve never had as many projects in the works before. First off, I got my website http://www.onlikeshit.com where I do a free mixtape series called “My Team Got Work” with myself and other artist I work hands on with, Nov 1st I’ll be doin part two of my daily song series, where I write, record & upload a song a day for 21 days straight, everything is done on the spot from nov 1st – nov 21st, also….. I just teamed up with a power house indie label out of San Diego, and just finished a DJ Skee mixtape together with artist I-Rocc, Dago Braves & El Cajon Tez coming soon called DJ Skee presents “Are We There Yet” and Smigg Dirtee & DJ Skee “Tell Yo Bitch To Come Here” vol1. And then, I just rapped up an album with San Diego producer Dave Moss called “Onlikeshit.com” which feats X-Raided, T-Nutty, Young Droop, Mistah Fab, Doey Rock, Laroo, John Brown, Bleezo, J-Kwon, Mack Twon, I-Rocc, & more. Plus workin on projects for my Teamwork artist Boog & Mack Twon.. done
Me:
Dang! You are on your grind tough! Onlikeshit.com tell me a little more about the website. Is there more than mixtapes? What can people expect on the site?
Smigg Dirtee:
The website will pretty much tell you everything that’s going on with me and the artist I work hands on with, I say “work hands on with” cuz some artist aren’t signed to me but I still put whatever I can in new artist I believe in no matter where they decide to go to pursue their career, such as Young Rebz out of Richmond Ca, and others, but basically http://www.onlikeshit.com will have up new videos, blogs etc, so my supporters can keep up with what’s goin on wit me….
Me:
That’s wats up! My boy had got your last mixtape and said it was the best mixtape out this year so far! That’s big… what can people expect from the up coming mixtapes? And when are they droppin?
Smigg Dirtee:
That’s wassup, they can expect me to TRY to get that same reaction out of everybody who hears these up coming mixtapes and albums, I try to seperate the sound of my mixtapes and albums, so they can always get something different, and grow eachtime, not too different, because its still me but make people not feel like they’re gettin the samething with each project, the DJ Skee mixtapes should both be out before the end of the year..
Me:
when is your next solo droppin? Have you started working on it?
Smigg Dirtee:
“Onlikeshit.com” the album is a solo, but kinda like a compilation, I have a feat. With me on every song, and that should be out by the end of the year aswell, then I’ve started on my main solo album called “Bonita’s Boy” (my mothers name) and I have no idea when its gonna drop, I’m takin my time with this one, cuz my goal is to have it compared to Jay-z’s Blueprint, lol, kinda farfetched but shit, imma try.
Me:
That’s wats up! For the solo/compilation, who can we expect on it?
Smigg Dirtee:
Mostly a lot of artist from Sac, San Diego & the Bay, all places I’ve lived in, I have Laroo, T-Nutty, Brotha Lynch, COS, G Macc, Big June, I-Rocc, Doey Rock, Mistah Fab, T-Nutty, Young Droop, Bleezo, Sav Judah, Devious, Beeda Weeda, J. Stalin, Balance, Guce, John Brown from the White Rapper show, J-Kwon (tipsy), Max B (free max b), Juice Lee, Poodeezy of the Dago Braves, Young Sau, Dubble R, Baby Bandit, Boog and my group The A-Team & I can’t think of whoelse.
Me:
Being a sacramento native, do you have any artists out here that are your favorite or that you slap their music often?
Smigg Dirtee:
There is a lot of Sac artists that I like right now, I fuc with Bueno, G-Macc, Sav Sicc & Bleezo, Flossalini, Lil Retro, my group Sav Tree & a lot others
Me:
Earlier you posted on twitter that you might leak a diss? What’s that about? You’re like one of the only niggas I NEVER hear anyone speak badly upon…
Smigg Dirtee:
yeah, I really don’t have anything anyone can speak bad on me about, unless they are just flat out hatin, id like to believe I’m pretty solid across the board, as for the diss… lol. No comment
Me:
Awwwww! No comment? You sure? Lol
Smigg Dirtee:
Hahaha.. not yet I’ll make sure you get that exclusive when its time tho
Me:
Okay thought id ask! Lol well anyone who does start or is thinking of starting beef with Smigg Dirtee better have their A Game ready cuz you got bars! Lol Any shoutouts? And how can someone contact you for features or hear music?
Smigg Dirtee:
Yeah, shoutout to the suckas, cuz without y’all wed all be real niggas & there would be no way for me to stand out from y’all, shoutout to money hungry ent, Teamwork ent, Shulaced ent, http://www.onlikeshit.com, OnLikeShit Boyz & Girlz Club, & my homeboy Boonie who’s out there in the midwest now, but always has sumthin good to say to keep me motivated to keep doin wut I’m doin and go hard
Oh.. Dirteeboy@gmail.com contact or myspace http://www.myspace.com/smiggdirtee
Me:
Question: Brandon Wilson from Antelope asks: “Is he plannin on making another tonight show an why cant i find the second tonight show ?”
Smigg Dirtee:
Yes I will be doin another tonite show, probably will be doin a few, were also gonna be doin the Bluez Brotherz Tonite show, me and i-rocc. The reason why people can’t find part 2, which to me is waaaaay better than the 1st one, is because its digital only, you can find it on itunes. I was like the first nigga to do a Tonite Show, I think Fab’s came out 1st tho.
Me:
I have another question from @prettiesexi on twitter: “ask him how he feels about the groupie blog” [I posted a blog about groupies on certifiablydefined.blogspot.com]
Smigg Dirtee:
I haven’t seen it, but I don’t see anything wrong with groupies.. my babys mom is a groupie
Me:
Omg! Smigg you a foo! Lol
Me:
Thanx for answering the questions! And thanx for taking the time out to interview with me Smigg! Much appreciated!

the jewel of toranto
Women in power, well its a powerful thing! You see a lot more women in the music industry but WE don’t get the recognition and apprication like we are supposed to! Not ALL of us are hoodrat, goldiggers, groupies or scallywops! And Jewlz Bailey is one of the most hard working women I know! I meet Jewel back in 06 or 07… I never met her in person *sad* BUT we do have a mutual friend Gonzoe [Blockwise/Illburn ENT] and from the first time I spoke with Jewlz over the phone she was the nicest chick I have come across in this business. Most hate off bat. But Jewlz was sweet!
Jewlz Bailey is a T.Dot [Toronto] native. She is a model, a mom and one of the hottest video directors out.
I asked to do a write up about her and she was very accepting. Sent some dope pix. The graffiti on her side says “Jewlz.” She also sent some of her fav videos. She also told me how she liked my blog “I just wanna be successful”:
“i had to send this one because of your piece on “successful”, just goes to show you what the youth are picking up! Chase decided he liked this song, and learned the words himself, he just randomly started singing along in the car one day lol. He’s just under 3 here. I had to tell him it’s not nice to say ho’s. lol. seriously tho 🙂 Funny coincedence tho… of all the artists chase coulda picked, he chose Drake, who is black/Jewish (just like Chase), and from Forest Hill (our neighbourhood in toronto)!!!”
Chase is a super cutie! Heatbreaker! Lol future star? With mommies and daddies skillz? I’d say so… Mmmhmmm
Jewlz is dope on the video directing/producing game! Check out her most recent video.
Nirvana Savoury “off my heelz/Chickn’ N Waffles”
Nirvana Savoury is from Toronto, but lives in NYC. (if u want check out her blog http://www.getinsidemyhead.net)
Jewlz has done videos and commericals for artists like Gonzoe and some feature artists like Yukmouth, Fatdog and more.
“this is my personal fave throwback, its Gonzoe, ‘You Lyin’ we shot this one in the desert in phoenix it was fun”
GONZOE “You Lyin”
Be on the lookout for Jewlz! If you don’t already know about her, google her!

“i just wanna be successful”
In music now-n-days artists talk about all the money, cars, and women they have. They promise a false sense of life to the younger generation who look up to them. The kids watching all these music videos fail to realize that most if not all of what they see is on loan. From the house, to the cars, even the women.
Its a shame seeing these videos and rappers with these big chains talking bout how much they spent on their grill or chains, what cars they have or them fuckin the finest bitches. Yo! That $10,000 you spent on your chain you should’ve saved to help a family member, better yet yourself because when your career is over you’ll need that money. You can’t pawn it and get back what you paid for it. For the artists who do help other people and give back… big ups to you! Stay humble…
and why “fuck every girl in the world”? Man… that’s why we have STDs and unplanned pregnancies that lead to boys leavin their kids to chase the next nutt. Yes there’s groupies everywhere but that doesn’t mean you need to sleep with them or get money out of them or do everything you do to downgrade women. Would you want someone doing that to your mother or sister? Okay what if they come after you? Walk away, leave the hoes alone… they’ll find their way. Why let them try to ruin your rep? Cuz we all know groupies want the chance to say they fucked you… maybe even get cashed out and if they are “lucky” get pregnant by you.
Being a rapper ain’t all what its cracked up to be. You gotta make sacrafices, grind, “invest in your self” like Balance said in his interview. People don’t get that. You don’t just become a star over night. Please have a back up plan. Stay in school.

Miss. Cashley the Pimptress
Miss. Cashley
So there aren’t that many female rappers, I mean there are but there aren’t many that move me… my favorite female artists are Roxanne Shante, Mc Lyte and Salt-n-Peppa. Locally you got Marvaless, Ann Carter, Mina Mean, Lady Live and Tavia Jenkins. I’m sure there are more but those ring bells.
You can add another name to that list. Miss Cashley. She’s a new young artist on the scene trying to put her foot in the door. Mina Mean has called her a “Jill of all Trades” on twitter.
Who is Miss Cashley? She’s a 22 year old female from Valley Hi [south sacramento]. She has worked with artists such as Dezit Eaze and Xclusive ENT, Pigg Pen, Lil Darelle, Dubb 20, E40, J Synth, Sumthin Terrible and more. She is currently working on a album and a mixtape due out soon, so be on the look out for the albums, mixtapes and Miss Cashley.

Famous the man…
Me:
Faaaammmooouuusss [your voice] Thanx for takin the time out to interview with me! How are you?
Famous:
well im 6ft brown skin and sexy but most of all i am blessed and highly favored
Me:
Hahaha effin famous! You crazy. How’s things in radio?
Famous:
radio is always good. its like school mostly for me because i teach and i get taught…and we even get recess
Me:
What’s recess like? I kno you is funny as hell…
Famous:
well thats a good question…we play, have off campus lunch, brain storm on how to take over the world one ear at a time
Me:
Well you are In the right profession to to so. Who’s your fav artists right now? Locally and mainstream?
Famous:
i dont have a favorite but within mainstream music i tend to listen to Jay-Z, 50 cent, E-40, Kanye, Jeezy, Drake, Eminem and Luda as for locally i am a fan of everyone who has made it on to 80 West Radio hahaha umm but Andy Allo, Jessica Jolia, Jimmy Reign, J.Gib, Simps da fo fif, Bueno, Netta Brielle woooo i could go on lol but i’ll stop right there (done)
Me:
Lol yeah those are some great people you mentioned. Do you have a favorite song to play while on air? You know that makes your day that much better?
Famous:
you know hardly every am i not in a good mood but what gets me even more juiced and hyped is the “Good Times” theme song. after hearing that its on an poppin
Me:
Lol “GOOD TIMES”? What’s your favorite lyric from the theme song?
Famous:
(singing in a high pitched voice) “hanging in the chow line”
Me:
So back to 80West radio, thanks for starting the show. How hhas the responce been?
Famous:
No problem. The inital responce has been pretty good. we have gotten alot of love from some great artist such as E-40, Big Omeezy, Bueno, Dezit Eaze, and J. Gib just to name a few. besides that Nikia an I have the pleasure to run into listeners and community involved people and they feel that we are doing something positive and giving Sacramento a chance of being heard…not to mention i love your support =)
Me:
Ever since the show have you seen sacramento become more unified?
Famous:
ive seen more of Sacramento artist supporting each other nad networking with one another so i do believe in the world of music we are moving in the right direction (done)
Me:
You guys have a thing called “sac’s finest’ on the show. Tell us a little bit about it plz
Famous:
Well Sac’s Finest is a spinoff from the Artist Spotlight…we want Sacramento to be on full blast with 80 West first because we believe there is great talent within our city…and since Sacramento is a gumbo pot city now thats why we entended our hand to all of Northern Cali to be in on the show…however this is the only place in the show where it is 100% Sacramento ONLY
Me:
There’s no other show like 80west. What is your favorite part of the show?
Famous:
hahaha why thank you….we put ALOT of work and thought into the show and if anyone listens to the show i hope they know that “Bless It Or Burn It” is my favorite part of the show
Me:
Yeah! Bless it and burn it has caused a lot of controversy and hurt feelings. Why do you think that is?
Famous:
you know what i dont really think that no one has had their feeling hurt or at least i hope not…the “Bless it Or Burn It” segment of the show is like the radio version of American Idol..off top anyone that has been put in that segment has been totally aware of it…it is NOT a make fun of you portion of the show…alot of “artist” feel that they are the next big thing and sometimes i dont agree with that…so rather than leaning onto my own opinions i ask the contestants if they feel comfortable with having the listener’s vote to bless it or burn it…several people have made it thru that segment with blessings such as T-Mazz, J Slick, Kendra De Anna, and most recently Tavia Jenkins…the only the only thing i can really say to people who happen to get their feelings hurt is 80 West Radio gave you a shot and expect to hear a 1,000 no’s before you hear a yes…an we encourage anyone who has had their record burned to hop back on that horse an keep pushing
Me:
Good point. But some people may think that the radio is what makes them. Do you think that’s true?
Famous:
I disagree radio dosent MAKE or BREAK you…having your music heard on radio is a blessing that could make something happend for you. i think people lost sight of what music is….music is made to tell a story, to inspire, and to make someone dance and feel good…now it seems as if people attempt to make music to get rich or have status
Me:
I feel it, how has being in radio influenced you? Has it opened you eyes to new things?
Famous:
Radio is a wonderful tool like i said a lil earlier i feel like im at school sometimes being here…ive always had personality, hahaha i was Famous before i joined with the Bomb but being here i have learned its now how radio can influence me but how can i influence radio…radio is like a relationship if im honest with you, tell you wonderful stories, and i can make u laugh i got you for life….but if im fake, dishonest, or a horrible speaker you’ll never listen. Ive always been good at heart and have wanted to do the best and i feel that i try to bring that to the airwaves or even when im out in public if most feel that i am a pretty straight up good guy =)
and as for my eyes being opened hahahaha i realized that there is alot of HARD work with working in radio but at the end of the day i wouldnt trade it for any other job
Me:
Who is your favorite guest you’ve had on air and why?
Famous:
E-40 hands down because growing thats who i listened to…c’mon u know E-40 is that guy…and everytime that ive meet 40 he has been the most humble non-ego having guy…not to mention dude knows my name and follows me on twitter hahahahaha and it was before he was on the show..so when we had the pleasure of opening up 80 West on radio he was the 1st guest and he stayed for the whole show…..mad love for the whole Sick Wit It fam
Me:
That’s what’s up! He seems fun and fun to be around. Okay I’ve been interviewing you for 4 hours! U a busy man! I’m going to let you get back to keeping the airwaves lit. Is there anything else you would like to say? Shoutouts?
FamousOnTheRadio:
also to anyone making music its ok to feel yourself…but if you want an honest feedback give it to someone you dont know
and always strive to be the best and do the best… and Nikia is one of the BEST people i have had the pleasure of working with (she really is the brains of the show) and with that said kisses to my ladies and dapps to my dawgs (ruff ruff) im out (done)
Me:
Lmao ruff ruff! Thanx famous!

Balance -All In
Everyone has their favorite music artists. Mine Jay-Z, Balance, Flossalini, Fabolous, Kanye, Lupe Fiasco and Eminem. Not many get to interview their favorite artists… I did and I’m hella excited about it.
Balance is known as the “Mixtape King” or the “Unsigned Legend” but to me he’s one of the dopest rappers out right now! He’s soooo humble, and pushes his music so hard! He has made his songs like “Gotta Get It”, “Grind”, “Can’t Go”, “We all in” and more. “Can’t Go” was #1 on KBMB, and has the best video in cali out directed by Prime Zero, great quality and concept!
In the interview Balance talks about “Can’t Go” and gives some learning tools that some of you rappers need to take notes on.
Enjoy!
Hey balance! Thank you for taking the time out to interview with me. You know this is big for me. How is everything on your side?
BALANCE: I’m good jus finished me and big rich album called “good as money”. you may have heard the first few singles from that album “cant go” “yayd out” “we all in””good as money” comes out oct. 20th. “cant go” has been getting alot of radio play throughtout northern california n rotation. so its a great feeling in rotation. so its a great feeling
me: “Can Go” is big out here in Sac and “We all in” is getting a great responce. “Can’t Go” was #1 on the countdown on the BOMB for a min. How did that feel?
balance: crazy cus when u make the music u jus hoping that u and ur folks like it. u never know if other people are gonna like it. but when it goes out into the world and other people luv it as much as u do its a unbeleivable feeling plus to be unsigned and have a number 1 song on a big station like kbmb is a huge success and shows that at the end of the day people wanna hear good music dont matter f u have a record label behind you or not
me: How did “Can’t Go” come about? Rumors is that its a true story… well atleast on your side… is there truth to that?
Balance: Traklordz made the beat gave it to jimmie reign. jimmie wrote and laid the hook. it had no rap on i yet. traklordz sent it to me. i whas going thru a bad relationship that would soon end in us breaking up. the hook instantly told me to write about what i whas going thru and i put the headphones on and it flowed out easy. fussin and fighting is all real, true story i think thas why people relate so much to the lyrics
CAN’T GO: BALANCE, BIG RICH, THE JACKA, JIMMIE REIGN
VIDEO BY: PRIME ZERO
PRODUCED BY: TRACK LORDZ
Wow! You are speaking some truth and real life experiances in the song. I know me and my girls relate to i so well. That has helped with the success of the song… I would say. Do you always try to put such persona experiences in songs?
balance: were not bragging about how big pimps we ar.e its about real life situations and how complex relationships are when ur addicted and dont wanna leave relationships, even tho u should. yeah i always try to put honest lyrics that the regular person can relate to music helps people thru bad times and good times so i feel each time i rap i gotta give the people sumthin even with the song “we all in.” I talk about my mom and me, tellin her “sorry but im tryin to make it in this game” i know u may want me to do sumthin else but this is what i love. thats real shit, true story slangin cds wit only my name on it, burned cds is true story
me: That’s some real shit! Who are some artists would you say that you’ve listened to that lyrics have helped you ge threw problems?
Balance: hmmmmmm outkast, drake, jay ,z ice cube, nwa, michael jackson, d’angelo too many to name
me: I am feeling that list. Who is your ultimate dream artits to work with? Anyone in the world?
balance: hmmmmm anyone in the world? ultimate song? balance feat. andre 3000, jay-z, drake over a dr. dre beat with michael jackson on the hook
me: Dammmmmnnnn!!! That would be dope! Speaking of Dr. Dre I heard that you are working on the detox with Dre… truth?
balance: my boy bishop lamont who dre dre signed to his label, hit me last November around time of thanksgiving and told me “come work on detox”. it was defenately a highlight of my career. i wrote sum of my dopest music. will it ever come out? who knows but jus the experience made me a better artist and thas where “cant go” and “we all in” and all the new stuff comes from me a better artist comes from
me: That’s wats up! You have to be very talented to get a opportunity like that! You solo album is coming out soon Please tell us about that..
balance: well i feel like i deserve to give my fans a treat before the end of the year. soooooooo ima release a 7 song balance EP for free download in december as a gift to all. A Balance EP is called “the exit” next year around march or april i will drop a full solo lp dont know the title yet tho
me: I’m excited about the solo albums. Will you be doing anymore mixtapes? anymore mixtapes?
balance: i dont know aout any more mix tapes. i may host a few. i did one early in the year with demolition men but as far as mixtapes all me by myself naw. Im more focused on making albums
On your twitter yesterday [9/15] you did some “independent artist tips” what prompted you to do so?
balance: lol! jus running into upcoming artist that are going at this game all wrong when i first started theyre was no one to tell us how to do it. i wish it was, i coulda not wasted time so i felt like giving sum game – i know theyre are alot of upcoming artists following me so i felt like sharing sum game i learned
me: What do you feel is the most inportant rule to always remember in trying to make it in the industry?
balance: invest in urself. and invest is more than money invest time, hard work dedication sacrifice practicei ts not as easy as u think. well its easy to not be good
me: Yeah it is easy not to be good! I’m sure you see it all the time considering where you work. Most people know. [I’m not gonna say due to the crazies] what is the funniest thing you’ve seen working there or what is the funniest thing a artist has done to try to impress you?
balance: i had a artist come to me and say he sold 100k units out the trunk of his car. lol and i never heard of him
me: Lmao! I’m so not gonna comment that. So hopefully your independent artist tips come in handy. I’m going to go ahead and end this interview. Is there anything else you would like to say? Shoutouts?
balance: id like to say thanks for interviewing me. to all my fans thanks for the support. look out for me and big rich cd “good as money” and my ep “the exit” follow me on twitter: balance510 hit me on myspace.com/balanceskillz thanks
me: Thank you balance
Balance: thanx
*there’s so much more I wanted to ask, but this interview was nerve-racking for me because he is one of my favorite rappers. So hopefully in the future I get to interview Balance again, and won’t be so nervous*
OUT OCTOBER 6TH

ALBUM REVIEW: THE MAIN ATTRACTION
Dj Twomp came to me about an idea to do album reviews. I thought it was a good idea to here’s the first one. Please be on the look out for Dj Twomps reviews also.
The Main Attraction:
I received the album from Upgrade when I was at Omina Labs. The first thing I did was complement Upgrade on the cover. I loved it! Bright colors, dope design and very appealing. Upgrade said he designed it to appeal to the womens eye and he sure did get that part down.
The album is full of dope beats it has a kinda futuristic sound to it. Very catchy and upbeat. TMA is a duo-group of two males, a singer– T.Dash and rapper– J.Reez.
The album starts of really nice but by the second song Attitude I realised they use A LOT of auto tune on T.Dash vocals. I didn’t like that.I found on two tracks “Don’t Go” and “What’s up?” Didn’t have Auto tune on voice or its VERY lightly used. Not like the others where its constant. T.Dash has a great voice and doesn’t need the auto tune. The lyrics are what females LOVE TO HEAR! So the writing of the songs is well done.
I had 3 favorite songs:
Searching: I like the lyrics and beat a lot!
Tonight: Makes u wanna hurry up n get home to hump your spouse and I know we all at some point wanted to get in the car and smash home. Lol
More, More, More: The title says it ALL
So besides the excesive use of auto tune… I loved the album! Great singer, with great bare vocals and the rapper is great with the lyrics and his delivery is moving. I can hear some of the songs being played on the radio, and with the right push… TMA would do well.
