| Prince Paul |
 Socrates
once said, "When you have worked with so many hip hop artists and have
become a producer, DJ and rapper in your own right, you become so cool,
you pee ice."* Prince Paul
pees ice. This New York-based legend of hip hop, is beloved by
nerdcorites on planets near and far, but let's be honest, he doesn't
have a geeky bone in his body.
Seriously, when MC Paul Barman flashed Prince Paul the Vulcan hand greeting before a recording session for It's Very Stimulating,
the Prince said, "That is the dumbest gang sign ever. Now I need to go
mix a phat beat and create another revolutionary hip hop movement just
to clear this uber-geeky moment out of my system." Totally true. Maybe.
Or maybe it was his avatar who said that in Second Life. Unclear.Giving up a lucrative career as a postman (as in USPS), Paul first materialized on the scene as a member of Stetsasonic before producing De La Soul's 3 Feet High and Rising . Soon after, he produced the monumental hip hop opera A Prince Among Thieves, a veritable hip hop summit bigger than Camp David and one of the most acclaimed concept albums of its time…FYI. Oh, and here are a few others cats the Prince has worked with: Big Daddy Kane, Xzibit, Everlast, Queen Latifah, Jay Z, MC Lyte, RZA (of Wu-Tang Clan), Slick Rick, Candyman, George Clinton, Yellowman, Beastie Boys, Sean Lennon and Queen Elizabeth II (the last one is under dispute). Striking a deal with Tommy Boy, Paul also produced piss-your-pants comedian Chris Rock's three Grammy award-winning albums Roll with the New, Bigger and Blacker, and Never Scared. Besides those gigabyte creds, XM satellite radio currently runs Paul's The Ill Out Show on the The Rhyme 65 channel. He is, in fact, in the film Nerdcore Rising and no,we're not worthy. *Please keep in mind throughout your perusal of this website that whenever we mention "Socrates" we literally have no idea what we're talking about. wikipedia myspace |
