What a down-to-earth guy. Im still bumping Do U damn near every other week as my musical tastes have evolved over the last 20 years. Thats a song ive never lost love for.
This was dope as hell. I've been a big fan of his since '96. Not gon lie I was expecting an Old Chicago Pimp, not Sheldon from Big bang, GREAT INTERVIEW!
I'm glad he said is this the end. Super underappreciated record. Pt 2 still plays to this day. Damn, and I completely forgot he was on that She don't put it down remix. That shit stayed in heavy rotation so long I forgot it was the remix and not the original.
Man it’s hard to say what’s his best feature because he Slaughtered “middle of the night” with 8 ball and MJG!!! And Po Pimpin by do or die!!! And Issa Playa by UGK!!! Twista is really king of Chicago!!!! He held the CHI down‼️🤦🏾♂️
This guy alone is why Eminem cant be the goat...I said what i said & all of the hiphop industry knows this....this guy is the real King of Hiphop since 2pac is gone. Lyrics, story, flow, originality, consistency, & Hits, no one has all these attributes aligned as well as he does.
I knew he would say Is that yo chick. Hes top 5 in my book. My favorite are legit ballers, one last time, and warm embrace. Now Twista michulek... love the guns too
His idea of being a “half nerd” is actually the realest shit. You have to extend yourself mentally as much as you can, but also have to back yourself up physically/healthily, see some hard times, change yourself, etc
Is this the end has some of the hardest flows to learn. Still trying to learn it. My favorite line in there is "lets go back to the car but wait, I can't find the keys! Plus we didn't chill long enough!"
I was at the concert in phoenix Az when twista did is that your chick…. He was the only reason I went to that concert. I literally have his name tattooed across my abdomen, and he has seen that in a club. He did the perfect storm album, and he even shook my hand because B hype showed him the tattoo I had, and twisted literally shook my hand. it is something I will never forget even though was cut early because some dumb person and I didn’t get to get pictures afterwards which I paid extra for but this was like early 2000s -2010 it’s been a while.
I remember opening up for Twista at a L.A. festival before he was famous in 1989, before we both got signed to major labels. He was known as the fastest rapper back then and was already in the Guinness book of world records. He was one of the first to create that style, that same year I took that style but slowed it down a little and called it the "stedder steppin style" , later Busta Rhymes,Bone thugs & Harmony and other acts started using the same flow.
Did you have any major label releases? That's a pretty dope story. It always blows my minds to see dudes like Twista..that was like 35 years ago. Dude looks 35 right now, today lol.
Yes, I was signed to Motown/Maddsounds/Grand Jury records. Now that I think about it , to me Big Daddy Kane was the first to do the fast, stedder stepping style of rap, so big shot out to Big Daddy Kane! My single can be found on TH-cam (Maniac, Deep enough remix/2 Deep2peep) my manager was Mike Concepcion, he did "All in the same Gang" with all the west coast artist, i signed with him in 1992.
Ahhhh, I thought he would list PO Pimp as his best feature! Lol. The Is Your Chick feat was FIRE! But I don't believe Is This The End was a feature. Didn't Twista pen that entire song, his verse, and Diddy’s? Lol
@@MeltymortyAnd Twista has out rapped him. they’re pretty well matched on skill. Just listen to Mista Tung Twista, and He’s a Mental Giant. That’s pretty equal and GOAT level skill
What is Twista's best guest verse of all time?
Has to be the one that started it all. Po Pimp
Money Flow
Overdose
@@jeremyjohnson5761 not a guest verse but fiiiiiRe
@@jeremyjohnson5761
It’s hard for me to pick out a particular verse from Adrenaline Rush but Overdose is definitely that fire.
Twists is one of the most talented and unique artists of all time. His wordplay and flow should be studied in museums
Twista is a legend in da game 💯.
Honestly deserves all of the flowers
This was EVERYTHING. A lyricist an artist A GENIUS 💯 Chitown’s Finest!
What a down-to-earth guy. Im still bumping Do U damn near every other week as my musical tastes have evolved over the last 20 years. Thats a song ive never lost love for.

I'm glad he said is this the end. Super underappreciated record. Pt 2 still plays to this day. Damn, and I completely forgot he was on that She don't put it down remix. That shit stayed in heavy rotation so long I forgot it was the remix and not the original.
Best Twista feature ever was Three 6 “smoked out”
Man it’s hard to say what’s his best feature because he Slaughtered “middle of the night” with 8 ball and MJG!!! And Po Pimpin by do or die!!! And Issa Playa by UGK!!! Twista is really king of Chicago!!!! He held the CHI down‼️🤦🏾♂️

Is That Yo Chick by Hov
Ignition by the KING of RnB

Is this the end has some of the hardest flows to learn. Still trying to learn it. My favorite line in there is "lets go back to the car but wait, I can't find the keys! Plus we didn't chill long enough!"

Thanks for this 🙏🏼 dope to hear
No bone had their own style like 1989 1990. First fast rappers were 1980.
Amazing story!
