RubyHornet: After Mic Tyson, what do you see from yourself? You’re married now with a couple of kids. Do you see yourself getting more inspiration off them? Perhaps trying to go full steam and drop another project?
Sean Price: My oldest son is in high school and just got his first piece of p*ssy, he going nuts. My twelve year-old still thinks he’s a wrestler and shit jumping all over the place. Then my daughter thinks she’s the queen of the house. I don’t know if it will be good for raps, but it’d definitely make a good television show.
RubyHornet: (haha) That’s it! Get VH1 to come to Brooklyn!
Sean Price: Na I’m definitely not doing that. No reality shows. I can write a show based on what I do. Haha. Get Mekhi Phifer to play Sean Price.
RubyHornet: After 3 LP’s, and the patience and integrity to not put out any wack material, what would you like people to say about Sean Price after hearing the LP?
Sean Price: I get busy. That n***a can rhyme. I’m cool with ya’ll saying that.
RubyHornet: Word. You going to be in Chicago anytime soon?
Sean Price: I’m scared of Chicago. I’m scared of the whole state of Illinois, but I’m definitely scared of Chicago. I probably won’t be out there.
RubyHornet: Ah, ain’t messing with the scene out here? Too many young kids running around wildin’?
Sean Price: I travel small, just me and my DJ. I don’t want to get beat up or shot. I remember last time I went out there, the promoter, he scared me! He said, ‘Fix ya hat! Why ya hat like that?’ I was like you goofy n***a. Had me scared to death out there. I’m actually scared to death of Chicago. I want to come home and enjoy meals with my wife. Its nuts out there. Ya’ll n*ggas in Chicago and Detroit are nuts. But I hope it gets better man. I been seeing the shit crazy, I really hope it gets better.
