Jungle got quotes for days B,
http://allhiphop.com/2003/11/21/the-bravehearts-new-yorks-bravest/
AllHipHop.com: Well, The first thing I wanted to ask yall was about Horse.
Jungle Jay: Who, son?
Wiz: He was just a feature, man.
Jungle: He said who?
Wiz: Dogs was a feature on the Oochie Wally.
Jungle: Nah, he was just a dude from the Bridge, you know what Im saying? Hanging around us and we put him on the record. He not really built to go through all this shit. Like, you gotta be really be built for the ups and downs of this business. He just wanted ups, you know what Im saying? Then soon as Jay-Z started going at Nas, he disappeared. He wasnt brave.
AllHipHop.com: Your bio says its just yall two in the group and Nas and Nashawn are auxiliaries. Why arent they a part of the group since they appear with yall so much?
Wiz: Well, Nas is a soloist and has been for years. And Nashawn is an upcoming soloist, and we just a group of playboys.
AllHipHop.com: So how long have you two been rhyming together?
Wiz: We been rhyming for years, but weve been official Bravehearts on contract for about 18 months.
AllHipHop.com: I wanted to ask about the criticism of Nas not being as good of a businessman as other rappers like Eminem or Nelly, for example.
Jungle: I can answer that easy. We from the hood, for real. A lot of these people are college graduates rapping and talking like they from the hood. They got business degrees, so you know people are going to give them a budget. Like, Yeah you know what to do what a budget, you got a degree. Nas is from the hood for real, you know what Im saying? He dropped out of high school. We all really hood people, so its going to take us a second, and we younger then all them guys. All them guys are over 30. Aint none of us 30.
Wiz: We all dropped out of school, man. Thats why.
Jungle: Yeah, the leader of our click dropped out of school. The leaders of all these other dudes, Jay-Z and Camronall these dudes been to college. College was no hope for us. College? We thought we would all be dead before we could even fill out an application or take an SAT. Thats not even in the category for us. The options was dying and getting locked up so fast you could even think about no college.
AllHipHop.com: Has being down with Nas like an enhanced education?
Wiz: Pretty much, experience has been our best teacher.
Jungle: Just being with Nas has been an experience. Going through all the ups and downs, hearing his problems with the labels and how he got through the problems. He had a long career. Its not like he just came through rapping and then he was gone, and had to find somewhere else to find money. He was the only artist on Sony that was signed back then. I think him and Lauryn Hill, or something.
AllHipHop.com: You mentioned Horse not wanting to be there for the downs. And beef has been so prevalent in hip-hop lately; can you speak on how if somebody just disses one person then the whole crew has to respond?
Jungle: Because that person is feeding that whole crew. Like, so if Nas is feeding me for the past 10 years and Jay-Z tries to assassinate his whole character and his whole being and tries to get him out the gamehes hurting me. Thats hurting me and my family. Thats hurting all the people that Nas helps. Nas will be like, Man, it aint nothing. Ill be like, Yes it is, son! You gotta dead that!
Wiz: Yes it is! Yeah!
Jungle: And Horse on the other hand is just scared. He look at it like they gon beat us up.
Wiz: [Mocking Horse] Oh they gon kill us. Im the biggest one; Im gon to get shot. Im bigger. They can see me first.
Jungle: They talking about Jungle is too rough or too wild to hang withhe was scared to hang with me.
AllHipHop.com: So do you think all dis tracks should be responded to?
Jungle: Nah! Not all dis tracks should be responded to. Only certain ones: good hip-hop battles for the fans. Those are the only ones that should be responded. If its going to make hip-hop better and make the fans like it better. It gotta be big for hip-hop like when Nas responded to Jay-Z. Dont do it to try and blow up.
AllHipHop.com: Can you speak on the tracks Jim Jones has been throwing out?
Jungle: Hes a dirt bag! Hes a street dude; you dont answer people like that. You just see him in the street. Period. That dirty fake blood ni**a, man. Ima destroy that ni**a. I will destroy him, yo. With one fatal fu**ing swing of the arm, yo. Believe me.
AllHipHop.com: You know the Bomb First track that Pac did? So he did that, but he said: Ima Braveheart killa, Nashawn die, too
.
Jungle: [Interrupts] He cant beat Nashawn in fight, man.
Wiz: Hell no!
Jungle: I let Nashawn fight all of them. Me, I will fight anyone of them in their crew. I will fight their security guards.
Wiz: I will beat the sh*t out of them. Yo, quote me: Wiz said, hell beat the shit out of Santana.
Jungle: I will kill Santana with a fucking clap. I will soul clap his head like this [smacks hands together] into a sandwich like, you know what Im saying? Them niggas, man. Freeky Zeeky got shot up, and their friend got killed and they didnt do nothing. So I dont even never want to hear them niggas talking about me.
Wiz: Dont talk about me. Go at the nigga that ran ya man over.
Jungle: Talk about the nigga that aired Freeky dirty Zeeky out, and the nigga that killed his fa**ot-ass friends and sh*t. Them bitch ass ni**as that died when Freeky Zeeky got shot, yall ni**as better handle the business for them, yo. You play with me or my brother, and they gonna get hurt real bad. Im just going to take it out on they security guards or something, you know what Im saying?
Wiz: Them dusty ass ni**as. Camron and his grandma earrings.
Jungle: Yeah, Camron got liver disease or something. Man, how you get liver disease and you that young? He probably got A.I.D.S. I think Cam got H.I.V.
