Kool G Rap Recalls Delivering Chinese Food, Financial Strategies, & His Realest Verse Ever (Video)
Kool G Rap interviews are getting better with the Queens MC’s career. Once guarded in the ’90s and early 2000s, the Juice Crew alum—who influenced a generation of rhyme spitters—is seemingly unafraid to be who he is, when the setting and questions call for it.
Recently, Montreality sat with the lyricist who has made classics like “Ill Street Blues,” “Money In The Bank,” and “My Life” in a career spanning 28 years. In the interview, Giancana tells a wild story about meeting 50 Cent in a Q-U jewelry store, and what G Rap learned about Fif from it. He also recalls teenage jobs while living in LeFrak City, the same town that N.O.R.E. and Akinyele hail from. Kool drops some jewels on what he did with his record checks, and how it kept him in a lifestyle opposite many artists.
If that’s not enough, you’ll be very surprised to hear what the MC’s “realest verse” is, and in doing so, why he’s (often) an unsung pioneer of Gangsta Rap.
