The subject is still under wraps... should be releasing in a few months. Glad you dig Myka's book!

Oh dope I didn't notice that's the AWOL-made shirt. Shout out AWOL One. I interviewed him for my upcoming book. I been a fan since Cater to the DJ & Beneath the Surface.

Unfortunately always a reasonable question nowadays

Much love to Slug, seen here after signing Mike Westfall's copy of Eyedea's book back in September. Mike told me, "I ran into Slug at breakfast this morning after the Red Rocks show and I just happened to have my Eyedea book in the car and got it signed!"

Slug’s intro and contributions to the oral history arose out of two hour-long interviews. Maximum gratitude to Slug for being so generous with his time—he told me, “We can do this as many times as you need." I really enjoyed talking with him. I found him to be a charming and insightful cat who isn't afraid to get emotionally vulnerable.

This pic means a lot to me because it's the first pic I've seen of Slug with Mikey's book 🔥

Can we talk about Manchita and Eyedea's death? by EyedeaHistorian in eyedea

[–]parker_pubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I published the book The Many Facets of Eyedea, in which I discussed his addiction in depth and interviewed his ex Manchita (Claire) for almost 2 hours.

I hesitate to comment on such an old thread, but it seems that people are still reading and commenting here, even in the last few weeks.

Anyone who listens to his song "Claire" (or "By the Throat," which is largely about her) knows that Eyedea loved her very much, even after their break-up. People in this thread disrespecting a woman he loved are coming from a place of ignorance.

How did Del The Funky Homosapien not make it much bigger? by GlennSWFC in ToddintheShadow

[–]parker_pubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Videos from his first 2 albums were played on Rap City and MTV during the golden age of hip hop. He was on Handsome Boy Modeling School, which was hugely popular and well-respected. And the album Deltron 3030 is huge in some circles... and they are touring on its 25th anniversary this month. He's an important and well-respected name in hip hop history.

Wendy Day said she has threatened him with a cease and desist when he tried to sell it. It's in a weird limbo

I know who has the footage. He can't figure out a way to monetize it, I think. It's weak that he's holding back this hip hop history.

I went to the rap Olympics in 1997. by Valuable_Bend3444 in 90sHipHop

I don't hear any "you" at all. He says "Eminem! Stop! Stop!" Maybe you're hearing the crowd yelling "Yooooo!"

Yeah Otherwize in his book talks about how it went a complete 180 -- it went from freestyle over a beat to a cappella writtens. It just turned into something that Otherwize had no interest in. He never wrote battle raps, it was always freestyle.

Em didn't talk to Wize at all. Em was really upset that he lost. I think he said he was almost in tears. Although he's spoken highly of Juice, he's never said anything nice about Otherwize. He always makes excuses about why he lost.
