In the interview, Josh pulled no punches: F**k the labels man, they suck. The last thing they're stripping down is their own expense accounts and sh*t. I mean, Jimmy Iovine of Interscope records takes a private jet or rides first class to tell a band they don't get tour support. You know what I mean? F**k that s***, I'm tired of it. [Our] American label's f**king us like crazy, so f**k them.
Why should I not say anything, what am I afraid of? I'm not afraid of them. One of the things most notable about us is how we work. You could not like the music, you can do anything you want, but we work and there's no changing that fact. And all I want to do is what we agreed upon.
- Another example of why rap labels and rock artists do not mix. On the other hand, the label's rock publicist seems to really be behind the new CD. Imagine how mad Josh would be if they had been stuck with one the inept people that work rap PR there! - read the full interview here
