Exclusive Interview with Miz of 'RLC'

What up Miz? Who are you and what the F*ck do you do?

I am a member of the Real Life Click and an artist on Coast2Coast/Hi Rollerz records. I do what I do best which is make great records and piss people off, lol.

When did you start rapping? Who were some emcees that influenced you?

I started seriously rapping in ’98 but was fooling around with it way before that. My influences when I first started rapping were Nas, Jay-Z, Mos Def and anything Wu put out.

You recently moved back to New Jersey from Washington state, what was the hip hop scene out there like and how has it impacted your music experience?

I think it did a lot for me as far as being able to bounce ideas off of a lot of other upcoming artists in that area. It helped me be more competitive because there was so many people out there doing it. I’m actually back in Washington now though but Jersey’s still home.

You have come along way since your ‘Family Affair’ mixtape and now your rocking with Coast 2 Coast, how has that relationship helped your overall awareness level as an artist?

Coast2Coast helps me in many ways, I;ve learned a lot from Fats. He is so young but is one of the smartest people I know. You can take in a lot if you just watch the dude work.
