I could sit down all day and write something. Otherwise, I could have 10 albums out there, easy. "I represent for the MCs that have skills, not just make music for the hell of it. I wanted to carry on that vibe and represent where I'm from.On his website, Twista stated that he made Kamikaze to show that he was still true to the ideals that he had when he started out. "It represents what I started from," Twista says of "Pimp On." "The first thing that really put me out there, that people really heard me on, was the Do Or Die song 'Po Pimp.' It's not as much about sticking to the whole thing of pimping, it's just the vibe where we're from in the city. On "Pimp On," Twista teams with 8Ball and Too $hort, as well as famous Chicago pimp the Arch Bishop Don Magic Juan, for a breakdown of the way of his native streets, and a nod to the song that first brought him to prominence.
Home to pimps, players, macks, prostitutes, and other underworld figures, this section of Chicago has served as the backdrop for many of Twista's rhymes. Much of Twista's creativity comes from the West Side Chicago streets on which he was raised. But at the same time, I want to make tracks where people can like my other stuff. "I don't really have to pop it fast, but I know that that's what people want to hear. Over a gangstered-out track from Kanye West (Jay-Z, Scarface, and others), Twista slows down his delivery pattern and displays how effective he can be with any style on "One Last Time." "I want people to hear that I can bring it any type of way that I want to bring it," he explains.

Toxic was sitting around like, 'What's your favorite drink?' We got the hook together and then on top of the beat I started rapping to it."Īlthough he's known for his machine-gun raps, Twista uses Kamikaze to display his full rapping range. I started thinking about the club and the chicks. "I like the ladies and the beat felt like that West Coast club sh-t. "I wanted to do something different," Twista explains. In another twist, Twista gives women the personality of drinks on the aptly titled "Drinks." Over a funky, Toxic-produced beat, Twista mixes and matches the personalities of **Crown Royal**, **Alize**, and others into a compelling lyrical exercise. Twista also re-ups on the new version of "Feel So Good." The new version, which was produced by long-time collaborator Toxic and which features Jazze Pha on the chorus, features Twista rapping smoother, slower and working the ladies. I started pacing the hall and started thinking of some deep, crazy sh-t." I'm going to pick that up where I left off because it had that beat and that vibe and I just started zoning to it one day while I was sitting in the studio. "I know I'm going to do 'Overdose' part two and I'm going to pick that up right where I left off, with the same little lyrics where I got cut off at. "I was trying to do that like Adrenaline Rush," Twista says. "Kill Us All," for example, is a sequel of sorts to the classic album's title track. Longtime Twista fans, who have been following the motormouth MC since he was named the world's fastest rapper by the Guinness Book Of World Records more than a decade ago, will be thrilled that several Kamikaze cuts build directly off his classic material. We know its f-ked up, but we've got to get a certain goal and we're trying to achieve it." On another level, I feel like I'm going into the game kamikaze. "On a surface level, I was like, 'What could I come with after Adrenaline Rush? What's the ultimate adrenaline rush? It's going kamikaze. Kamikaze represents two things," Twista explains. Now, with Kamikaze, he shows what it is like when he elevates his own style. With 1997's Adrenaline Rush Twista showed how the rapid-fire flow was supposed to go. That's right, Twista is back, and after years of making hits for other artists, the Chicago pioneer is about to release his most important album-the highly anticipated Kamikaze. He's the underground legend ready to return to the game he helped revolutionize. He's the MC whose style has been imitated by scores of rappers. Diddy, Timbaland, and Three 6 Mafia call when they need someone to take their records over the top.
