Cancer Is A Big Fat Liar

3 November 2008 No Comment

After rhyming for 10 years and dwelling in the Detroit scene for the last 8+, Cancer is finally living up to his potential. Known for his clever wordplay and ferocious style, he has won over many of the city’s finest m.c’s and d.j’s who are considered fans, along the way sharing the stage with Eminem, Hush, Paradime, One Be Lo and pretty much anyone dope coming out of the D. Coming up in the silver age of hip hop, Cancer’s lyrical heroes are pioneers of the music and styles coming out today, and not the bullshit clones who were created in studios by old folks who didn’t know shit about the art. As heavily influenced by rock as he is by hip hop, Cancer is an artist who is never afraid to experiment with different genres. Never claiming to be anything other than who he is, Cancer remains in the game to murder your family, fuck your girlfriend, ruin your career, eat your lunch when you’re not looking, borrow your car without asking, leave the toilet seat up, club seals, eat pork, take drugs, laugh at midgets, watch porn, help old ladies across the street, refuse to eat his vegetables, masturbate excessively, watch horrible movies about bondage and jazzercise, and read the bible.

Cancer is Getting ready To Release His New Mixtape “Cancer Is A Big Fat Liar”, Will Asked Cancer A Few Questions, Heres How It Went Down.

Will- For those who dont know, give the people an introduction to cancer.

Cancer-In essence I’m just a violent comedian. I like to make people laugh at shit that most would be disgusted by.

Will- Tell us a little about the new Album/Mixtape “Cancer…is a big fat liar”

Cancer-I’ve had these tracks laying around for what seems like forever, and damo was getting sick of lookin at em. it’s basically a compilation of old solo songs and some of my favorite guest spots over the years smashed together on a $5 drink coaster you can listen to.

Will-So everything on this release is from 1999-2004, what’s Cancer been doing from 2004-2008?

Cancer-a lot of guest spots. a lot. time goes by really quickly and I’m just a victim of that I guess. I’ve got an album I’m finishing up now, but I’m not trying to rush the finished product. don’t get me wrong, it’s not like it’s “Chinese Democracy” and shit but I’m kind of a perfectionist. that’s the main reason the solo songs on the mixtape were never released, I couldn’t afford to get em mixed and mastered properly. or at least good enough to put out.

Will-You’re album has been a long time coming, What took so long for the compilation to come out? and when can we expect a new proper Cancer disc?

Cancer-The album should be out soon. I can’t give a date yet but I’m getting close.

Will-Being a huge Paradime supporter, my favorite Cancer guest spot was “The Sentences” with Hush and Paradime from his album “Vices”.  You’ve kinda made your name from doing guest spots, what’s your favorite guest spot you’ve done?

Cancer-That song is probably my favorite too. I just did some shit on Aztek’s mixtape that was bananas. I can carry a song on my own, but to me there’s nothing like getting together with other mc’s of equal or higher caliber and just goin nuts. it keeps you sharp.

Will- I noticed 8 of the tracks on the mixtape are produced by Ope from the Disregarded, is he your favorite producer to work with? if not, who is?

Cancer-ope is a god. we produced the bulk of
my new album as a team. he’s really one of only a few people that really
understands who I am and what I’m trying to do. he knows I’m a fucking weirdo and adapts to that,and like myself he’s eager to learn and try new shit. Aztek just laced me with some fire too. I’m really picky when it comes to beats.

Will-So you’ve got the release party coming up on November 22nd at Tailgators, wsg Abstrakt Intellekt, Chief, Rising Suns and Rtkul8.  What can someone expect if they’ve never seen Cancer live?

Cancer-you can expect me to forget some shit haha. other than that I’m just an in-your-face type of cat. and expect that soon everyones gonna be talking about “concrete baboons”. it’ll all be revealed soon. it’s gonna be retarded
