Cormega and Tragedy Khadifi spit some real game with Taj Mahal on the state of Hip-Hop, NY’s demise and reemergence, and being responsible with the gift of rhyme.

“We [Blacks] got the wrong concept of hustling. Black  people spend $600 billion dollars a year in disposable income. We spend so much money, but we don’t have economic power cause we’re hustling backwards.

I aint gonna front, to me hustling and making it was like having the illest clothes on, having the illest jewelry, you know the same old Shyte. Success to me was jewelry, cars, clothes and women, but that’s not really success at the end of the day, cuz in that there’s no value.

Today I’m a man and the things I value are of real value. A year from now that chain aint gonna be hot. That car aint gonna have the same value people place on it, it’s value is gonna depreciate. Real life never depreciates when you’re living it to it’s highest value.” – Tragedy Khadafi
