“Say my brother better? Big deal/ Big brother, so fuck ya/ He Hammer — can’t touch him/ Ride ‘round, nigga, AMG Mufflers/ Second fiddle to my own gene-pool?/ We laugh about it, that’s cool/ If I’m at the top and he better/ If you think about it, we rule.”

Pusha T on Vegas Nights, Partying with Rick Ross, and Driving Lamborghinis in the Club

“Puffy needs to be on every Pusha album, just talking on a song. That’s it. That’s his place. His era of hip-hop was probably the best era just for me, that ‘94, ‘95 whole little gamut. It was the best time in street music and mixtapes, the Bad Boy era, and he talked over all of my favorite rappers’ songs. His ad libs make [Biggie’s] “Who Shot Ya?” so haunting. On top of the lyrics, which are just godly, Puffy is screaming and going nuts and I feel like that intensity is missing in music now.”

Pusha T Interview

Pusha T talks about nearly signing to No Limit, being booked by local drug dealers for $2,000 a show, performing in a private log-cabin in Wyoming, Death Duel Productions, seeing Jay-Z at the supermarket, being booed by Smiff-N-Wessun fans, why he’d probably turn down working with Large Pro, Big Daddy Kane album title puns, and lots of other stuff that isn’t just asking him whether Clipse only make crack raps. Check it here.

When I asked Pusha about the cover illustration to Lord Willin’, he just kinda shrugged and said he had no idea what it was about. Got the distinct impression he kinda hates it. (Apparently the artist also makes, um, illustrated candles.)
