BYNOE RIOT SQUAD REPRESENTER

Exit 21: Yo! We’re here, man. Exit 21 Magazine. You already know, Far Rockaway Projects all that! Right here in Edgemere. I got my man Bynoe, right here. We had to freshen up the interview for that issue coming out in July. Holla! Baby, what’s good?

necticut is like our backyard. We’ve been in Boston- a lot of lower Mass. We’ve been all over.

Bynoe: I’m just chilling, man. I’m just staying focused, staying busy and motivated. That’s about it.

Bynoe: Yeah. He’s like on three joints on my solo project, right now as we speak. And, he’s all over the Riot Reloaded tape. We got him. We’re working with 2 new artists we’re about to bring into the fold. That’s Pusha T and Craze Marcy. My little man, my little homie Ronie and shit- he’s on the project too. We’re shaking and moving. I’m just trying to get this whole thing back to where it needs to be. Just to give it a face lift. You know what I’m saying? So, I’ve been reaching out to different artists and shit and working with them.

Exit 21: Since the last time I saw you, man, what’s been going on? Bynoe: A lot has been going on, man. I’m 90% done on both projects. I got that Riot Reloaded, I’m dropping soon. And, right after that I’m going to double back on Did That, Got Famous- that’s my solo project. I completed Chinx’s project Cocaine Riot 3. So, we’re just shaking and moving. You feel me? Exit 21: And, who are some of the producers on those new projects that [are] coming out? Bynoe: On Riot Reloaded, we got Sinero- he produced Swag Champ by Fab. He did a lot of work with Fab this year. I got Red McFly. He gave me some shit. I got Dollaz- that’s Chinx producer. He did Ain’t No Sunshine. He did a couple of records. He did the Coke Boy Wave on Cocaine Riot 2. So, we’re just working. I probably got like 9 beats from him, and I picked like 4. So we’re working. Exit 21: What’s been going on as far as the road? You know I’ve been peeping y’all on the road, traveling. What cities have y’all hit up lately? Bynoe: We’ve been hitting up the Tri-state like crazy. We just hit up D.C. recently. We’ve been in P.A. a lot. You know Con6

EXIT21MAGAZINE.COM ISSUE 5

Exit 21: For sure. And, can we expect Chinx Drugz on the mixtapes and the albums as well?

Exit 21: No doubt. So, how has the game changed since you’ve been home? We know you went away and you’re back now on the set and better than ever. How has it changed since you last left and came back- what’s the big difference now? Bynoe: The mixtape circuit man! I used to have fun running down on the bootleggers and shit! Now, it’s just like- everything is [ThatPiff.com] and live mixtapes. It still is what is it is. I just like that street money where I can feel it. Exit 21: What is it that you feel the game is really missing, that you’re going to bring back to the game, that you’re going to resurface in the game? Bynoe: Niggas ain’t being [themselves] anymore. I don’t have any disrespect for the Molly music- I do that shit sometimes. Whatever floats your boat! But, niggas ain’t being real [anymore]. A lot of muthafuckers sound like this nigga; this nigga sounds like that nigga. I gotta’ bring originality back. [There’s] no storytelling no more. They don’t even paint pictures [any-


more]. They start off in the club and then it’s over. You know what I mean? You don’t [paint] the picture of the whole record- where you can say, ‘alright- he took me here he took me there.’ It’s just straight in the club, going home, and switching the track. Exit 21: If there’s anyone that you haven’t worked with already, that you would like to work with outside of your camp and Chinx Drugz, who would it be? Bynoe: Probably Big Sean. His shit is dope. Exit 21: What about producers? Any big time producers you want to work with? Bynoe: I definitely want to sit down with Jaleel. Black Meta-

A lot of muthafuckers sound like this ni99a; this ni99a sounds like that ni99a. I gotta’ bring originality back.

phor- he got some shit! [Because] he doesn’t have a [distinctive] style. He could do a record like the Jeezy record he did and then he can turn around and flip back and do “Sanctuary” for French and that shit can sound totally different. He’s out in Atlanta and shit- he’s a young boy. I heard he got some shit. I definitely want to work with Chop too. Exit 21: You know a lot of artists, they always come with their own labels and they try to bring their [men] out of the hood and all that; is that something we can expect from you? Bynoe. O, yeah! Piffy P. money marlow. My young boy Ronie. Craze Marcy- he’s out of Poughkeepsie and shit. So it ain’t just a Rockaway thing. I’m just elevating and doing what I gotta do, man. Marlow’s actually out of Canada. So, I just crossed the border on that note. And they’re coming right behind me. Exit 21: For sure. Well, you know we’re losing a lot of our brothers from this violence out here. You know, I was surprised. I heard some things from these little kids out hereseven and eight years old. I’m not even going to speak on it. But, what positive advice can you offer some of these young kids? Because we have to be their mentors and talk to them about keeping their heads and rising above all this violence. Bynoe: We [have to] do things for ‘the cause’ not ‘because,’ man. A lot of people just run around here wilding. That violence shit is played out though! Everyone is trying to live. Niggas trying to get money. Niggas trying to have the baddest chicks , the baddest cars. The baddest houses. The object of the game is to get the fuck out of here. So, if you want to be stuck here all your life I don’t know what to tell you. Go to school, man. Ain’t nothing wrong with being a nerd. You get all the girls! That’s popping right now! Funny sweaters and shit and the geek specs- they get all the women. It’s cool now! Exit 21: You heard it first! Exit21Magazine.com! My man Bynoe - Edgemere- we’re in the projects. We go everywhere. From the hood to Hollywood, you name it! We get there man. Bynoe: O, yeah! Shout out to Prodigy from Mobb Deep. He’s on the Riot Reloaded tape. Exit 21: No doubt! I’m trying to get at Prodigy! Where you at baby? Bynoe: He’s on tour right now. Yeah, they’re on that 20th Anniversary Mobb Deep tour. It’s good to see they’re back together. My niggas from Queens and shit. I grew up listening to them. He used to be in this park right here with his fucking army jacket on and shit. This shit was crazy in ’95 off that Mobb Deep shit! Niggas would get hit here, shot here! All type of shit, son! That shit was crazy when Mobb hit. I was like, “woohoo!’ When that Shook Ones dropped, niggas got stupid out here. Exit 21: Let the people know your contacts. Bynoe: You can fine me @IamBynoe on Twitter and on Instagram. And on facebook.com/bynoeriotskuad. Exit 21: That’s what it is! Exit 21 Magazine. We’re here! We just did the fresh interview! Now we’re about to get into that photo shoot. Any last shout outs? Bynoe: Shout out to the whole Riot Squad. To all my niggas in jail- that’s about to come home, that ain’t never coming home. I do it for y’all. My Coke Boy niggas- the whole Far Rock! We’re global and nationwide! All America, man. Rest in peace Stack Bundles! Exit 21: That’s right R.I.P. We’re out!

RAPGENIUS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 33

What is RapGenius? RapGenius.com is just like Wikipedia it’s basically anyone can make an account and explain some text and lyrics accept that we also have famous people using it and also you get points “Rap IQ” for doing good explanations. How Long ago did you start RapGenius. com? E:The first lines of code were committed in August of 2009. M:Started from the bottom. We worked for like maybe two years. There were people who loved it, they were like the core people who loved it and it grew a little bit here and there but for the most part it was kind of like an obscure website that nobody heard of people would find it be like whoa crazy website how didn’t I know about this, but it was a long time before it caught on. How do you split the duties? E:It’s basically like chaos and luck and just like improvisation. Tom handles most of the programming and the management of the programmers that we hired who are all really smart. Mah and I do a lot of the stuff it’s not like we have a check list of stuff like this is mind this is yours that we revised. What we really do is just ball and we try to kick it with the rappers we try to get everyone to come kick it with us and get an account try to expanding and keep growing and that’s what we’re doing. Right now our site is 5% of Wikipedia we want it to be 500% Wikipedia because we think that the fact that you can be famous and people know what you doing on the site makes us even better than Wikipedia Who are your competitors or similar? Wikipedia is similar in knowledge but Facebook is similar in being a way to meet new people who have the same interest as you and twitter and Instagram are similar because they let famous people interact with their fans but the differences with Twitter and Instagram is that anything that a rapper does just gets flushed down the toilet after a couple of days whereas rap genius is forever. Once you explain your

CHINX DRUGZ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 29

lyrics to your fans on RapGenius.com that’s on the wall history forever. What is the goal of RapGenius? I think we want to change Not that its so bad right now or anything, but I think we’re trying to change the way people interact with music. Like you’ll see people tweeting like yo you can’t really appreciate this Kendrick album without reading on rap genius as well. So changing the way people interact with songs but also changing the way people read books. We’re not quite there yet with books the way we are with rap but we are starting to get there. Theres full books annotated on RapGenius and in a few years when you buy a book on Amazon or Apple or whatever you probably will be buying it with RapGenius annotations and when you download it you’ll be able to contribute your own annotations and that will be both regular people and the authors annotations and expert professors annotations so its going to be a different way of reading a different way listing to music a different way of reading articles on Internet you can still just read something but you also get to have the option of going more in depth But even more than that its just a different way of writing. A lot of writing now days is full digression footnotes changing subjects and stuff like that makes for pretty difficult reading experience a lot of people do original writing a RapGenius and use the annotations and make it flow a little better Elan put his whole new short story on RapGenius we’ve all done some original stuff. Mahboud puts his poems on RapGenius, My Boy AbSoul willSome say breakdown Show Us Love! my new verse and I’m like sorry bro I’m breaking down my own new verse so that’s really the most fun everyone should be explaining their own work.

FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM/TWITTER

like we have all these verified artists so if you have like absoul who is verified if he puts out a song and he’s got these lyrics and hundreds of fans come and annotate the lyrics and comment and talk about it and Absoul comes and talks about it too. But then you have younger people who have less Fanbase smaller Fanbase less traction people like I us basically just put up their original
