Q&A Interview With Detroit Emcee Valid

What was the earliest hip hop memory you can recall? My earliest memories would have to be probably my older brother who was a teen in the early 90’s having MC Hammer CDs & in the same time frame, my uncle’s saying something about a dude named MC Breed. I was too young to know what I was hearing. I also remember my cousins who were a few years older than me had to hide the Snoop Dogg Doggystyle cassette tape from my uncle. But the my most memorable moment involving Hip-Hop as a child was when I heard “Mo’ Money, Mo’ Problems”. Biggie was my gateway drug. I heard that song at 10 years old I believe & it was an instant rush. Who’re some of your biggest musical influences? Man, this is a tough question because I try to sound as different as I can from the next artist. But who makes me want to make music in general…Nas, Sade, eLZhi, Common & for sure one of my biggest influences on my writing is Slick Rick. I definitely learned how to rock a show from my dude Supa Emcee. Oh ...
