Reason Interview: Cain aka Cain_Marko

[5th Letter]

5th Letter- What do you say to people who say old heads hate on the young cats?

Cain- I will say they're right. Older heads used to hate on my like of cats like Nas, Redman, and Big. It's a part of the game. It's all a cycle the new batch of emcee's coming up in years to come will be hated on by Kendricks,Drakes, and Future fans of today. It happens

5th Letter- How did you discover the IC?

Cain- I discovered the site one day I was laid up at home recovering from a surgery I had done. I was looking for hiphop related topics and saw Allhiphop when it had the old newspaper style page lol. Been a member of this site since the forum's opened up when Greg and Creekmoor were posting. Then stopped posting in 02 came back and lurked then rejoined back in 08

5th Letter- What made you stop posting?

Cain- I didn't really post that much as it was then and I had work and school going on at that time to keep me busy.

5th Letter- What are your earliest memories of the IC?

Cain- I came here like most to see what others thought about hiphop I lurked for the most part. A thread about Pac and Biggie caught my eye and I believe that was my first post. Then I went over to the Let Me Ride forum posted in there a lot I had one of those fast and furious Honda Accords that I was trying to get pointers and see if anyone was into lowrider cars. Then I found Illpix and posted in there and the Reason.

5th Letter- What are some of the craziest things you've seen since you've been on here?

Cain- The IC is famous for the exposure's albeit some are funny I don't really believe in the exposing people. I'm more of fuck the keyboard say it toy face person but this is the internet so it what it is. The craziest thing or I should say the funniest was the Shenco roast.

Dude used to be on here promoting his music back in the day and some of it was not bad BUT when I pushed play on that ear homicide he called Standardize Slaughter I knew it was going to end well. All the gifs and memes was hilarious. Closest thing as funny as that today was the SleepwalkinginJapan roast now that was crazy for all the wrong reason

5th Letter- What was your relationship with Six like? Did y'all really live next door?

Cain- I'm a lot older than her but we're from the same place. Never hung in the same circle's but she knowy people I know her people. She's cool very smart girl

5th Letter- Who are your favorite and least favorite posters?

Cain- Favorite posters: are the GTA crew, Coalition crew, the females and the Mod Squad

Least favorite: that mizury chick is weird as fuck don't read none of her post. Besides that none of these goofy niggas are worth mentioning. If they feel a certain way and man enough test their hands hit me up I'm in Charlotte,NC

5th Letter- How do you feel about those old jokes?

Cain- I don't pay none of that no attention when I know it's cats on here older than me lol. Plus most these goofy niggas favorite rappers are my age or older so it's all hilarious to me

5th Letter- Word association 2 words or less

5th Letter- Bone Thugs & Harmony

Cain- trash

5th Letter- Juelz21

Cain- weirdo

5th Letter- DWO

Cain- friend

5th Letter- Nas

Cain- GOAT emcee

5th Letter- Any last words before we wrap up?

Cain- The IC has lost some of its glory but I still rock with this site till the wheels fall off. IC is still the best forum out there regardless niggas come here to beef and talk shit. It makes other forums feel weak in my opinion. I believe more posters should come out of lurking and engage and discuss their opinions no matter how wack and dumb as shit they are lol. Oh and a more serious note, to all the posters thats on here for hours at a time. Challenge yourself to volunteering a couple of minutes out of your day to help the youth that don't have anyone to help or care about them. Our young black males and females need a role model to look up to and see that there is a better way. A few minutes to an hour out of your day to show a child you care can change things.

Shoutout to quadruple OG Cain

 

[Revolver Ocelot]

Yet a producers like Mustard and Metro will use the same beat sequence for 10 different songs for 10 different artist and these goofy niggas will say.

My nigga. Thought I was the only that noticed that shit.

Dope interview, even tho he's completely wrong about BTNH.

 

[Chi Snow]

Finally, an interview I read from beginning to end (Correction, I read all of Bride interview also)

Great job but TS gotta change up these questions every once in a while

 

[achewon87]

[_Goldie_]

Almost gave this interview a wack for the Pac slander, but it was a dope interview overall. One of the Goat posters.

 

[sr_the_freshman]

Cain- New niggas are trash and the fans have let themselves be dumb down by this fuck shit. Hiphop had became beat driven across the board from East to West and South to North. Even the producers are dumbing down their sound and it's all starting to sound the same.

A producer like J. Dilla god rest the dead would be considered boring now because his beats don't slap or whatever these new age fuck niggas say lol. Yet a producers like Mustard and Metro will use the same beat sequence for 10 different songs for 10 different artist and these goofy niggas will say. I know that comes off as the old nigga hating but it is what it is. Artist have to change with the times I get it but I am from a time where lyrics and complex beats meant something. Even Rick Ross had dumbed down his flow and using more "trap" beats. That dude Desiigner dumb his whole style and to get on. It's so blatant that's it's brilliant to an extent. On camera acts like a babbling jackass off camera nigga is East New York stoop talking nigga shit is hilarious. Future the same way he used to rap like 3000 now he mumble mouth God of hiphop. I just believe Pac and Big gave these dudes two different styles to run with and these new niggas blew it.

Oh and before some jackass respond to what I said with "there is other artist out there that is rhyming". Shut up......the mainstream is what our culture is being judged by the masses at this point in the game. A Ab-soul will not get the look a Lil Yachty will. A Casey Veggies will not get a look period. Black Milk will never get a look and Krit who is nice won't shone because he's considered boring by fuck niggas and cause he's not rapping about how much dope he smoked and or sold.

I just want hiphop live up to its potential and not dumb itself down for the turn up

Good shit

Pre Deathrow Pac wasn't a super thug. Suge and Deathrow put a battery in his back. He was on some Black empowerment rhyming like Chuck D. All of us old heads know what Pac was about before he started really thinking he waa Birdy from Above the Rim.

His best work was MATW on Interscope/Jive

My nigga he had an album titled "THUG LIFE" with a big ass thug life tattoo before Death Row, but it was Suge who put the battery in his back? ..... It's your interview so ima let you cook lol.

THUG LIFE had a serious meaning behind it. If you're a Pac fan you should know that. If you don't think Suge put the battery in Pac's back then cool.

So Pac wasn't shooting at undercover cops, beating up directors, making gangsta rap before Suge? Cmon my nigga. Pac didn't just turn into a different nigga over night. But Im done derailing the thread
