ThaFormula.com - Your thoughts on a producer like Timbaland?

Planet Asia - Hot and fresh because he always comes different. He always comes different every time.

ThaFormula.com - Did you ever try to get any Timbaland beats for your new album?

Planet Asia - Nah, but I would like too. But you know what, you just sparked something. Timby! Yeah, that's my next move. Not the Neptunes, but Timby on the song talkin' those ad-libs. Yeah! You just gave me an idea man. I'm glad you came here.

ThaFormula.com - How much is a beat from someone like Timbaland?

Planet Asia - I really don't care, but I think it's about $50,000. Plus he's got a thing with Interscope, so I could probably get him cheaper then that.

ThaFormula.com - What about someone like Nelly? What are your thoughts on a rapper like that?

Planet Asia - He's tight.

ThaFormula.com - What is tight about Nelly?

Planet Asia - Cause he didn't go. I like young people doing there shit and havin' fun. He don't seem like he's a hater because he got his boys on. I just like shit like that. I like real shit because I'm a real person. Some shit don't have to be dope because of the music to me. He don't really represent nothing bad. His shit ain't hardcore. His is like for the kids type shit. I like that type of shit and it's workin' for him and getting muthafuckaz out the ghetto.

ThaFormula.com - What about someone like Ludacris?

Planet Asia - He's hard! He can really rap. To me he can really rhyme.

ThaFormula.com - What does he rap about?

Planet Asia - Everything. I just heard this shit with him where he was straight spittin' with somebody from his crew over somebody beatboxing. He was killin' it, but on some rap shit though.

ThaFormula.com - How about Eminem?

Planet Asia - Of course Eminem could rhyme.

ThaFormula.com - What about Evidence?

Planet Asia - Hard.

ThaFormula.com - In a battle, who do you think would win?

Planet Asia - Face to face?

ThaFormula.com - Yeah?

Planet Asia - Eminem would get him because he's got all those fans and that's just the reality of it.

ThaFormula.com - No I mean a battle in front of a bunch of mc's?

Planet Asia - Oh I don't know. I would love to see that. That would be a good one. The reason why I can't say is because both of them come with like writtens and I ain't gonna lie, to me Evidence got him on that last shit he did. Regardless of how many fans Eminem's got and to me Eminem is dope. I ain't taking nothing away from him. I done seen him serve like ten cats that's supposed to be so called fresh and that was the first time I seen him. He was servin' cats and to me he's still servin' cats, but Evidence kind of got him on that song he did. EV put it down on him dog! He did him man. It was hard. Every line had some far out shit on it man and the beat was crazy too. I can't front! But we don't give a fuck about that because that's just life. It's like if two people start fighting. It's just life. You gotta expect shit like that. It could happen to me, it could happen to anybody. I'm not rappin' though. Fuck that shit, we gonna beat they ass. If you rap about me, I'm gonna beat your ass. We ain't gonna get that far. If you got a problem with me, I'm gonna know about it. Now if your just some backpack cat in the corner from some strange city rappin' some shit about me, I don't give a fuck. You just making me bigger. We come from the struggle. We trying to eat over here. We trying to have mansions and shit. Were trying to have land and cows and chickens and shit.

ThaFormula.com - What has changed since you signed with Interscope?

Planet Asia - The only thing that has changed is that I got quicker access to people who I wanna work with. Just like you gave me that idea for Timbaland. I gotta push that now to my label. I got to go do that. Cause I just wanna hear what that sounds like man.

ThaFormula.com - What do you think people will say about that man?

Planet Asia - I don't give a fuck what people are gonna say about it! You think I give a fuck about what anybody sayin'? I don't give a fuck about what any of these people say. I'm gonna do me. You ever heard the term do you? That's what it's about. That's why I feel I'm like the new version of Pac, because I'm gonna do me. Anything that gets in my way or whatever…will be destroyed.

ThaFormula.com - What do you think of Sway getting on MTV?

Planet Asia - I'm happy.

ThaFormula.com - Now a lot of people say that Sway sold out by getting on MTV?

Planet Asia - You know what? That's not sellin' out. Fuck all you people that don't want to see us paid. This must be some white people. You got to obviously be white. Anybody out there who doesn't want somebody to succeed in life, you obviously are white. You ain't black and you ain't speaking for black people. You are not speaking for us. We are trying to get out of our situation. If you ain't got a situation to get up out of, then it ain't your business to even talk about it.

ThaFormula.com - So what is sellin' out in your opinion?

Planet Asia - Sellin' out is sellin' your moral beliefs as far as bending over and letting somebody stick they dick in your ass. That's sellin' out. Being a faggot is sellin' out tome. Being a man and not livin' up to being a man. That's sellin' out. That's the true identity of sellin' out. Now print that in your magazine! That's a sell out!

ThaFormula.com - So what is a wack mc?

Planet Asia - A muthafucker that's rappin' and shouldn't be rappin'. Who his friends is really tellin' him he's dope but he's really not, and the people that he don't know don't like him. Only his friends is tellin' him he's dope. That's a wack mc! Milli Vannilli, that's a wack mc.

ThaFormula.com - What do you think is the biggest difference between this upcoming album and your past projects?

Planet Asia - I can do whatever I wanna do as far as music wise. The lyrics always get better every year man. I just get tighter and tighter. Ever since I been rhymin', every year I just get tighter and tighter. My shit upgrades every year, so next year you don't know what kind of fuckin' shit I might come up with.

ThaFormula.com - Why do you think a lot of mc's talk a lot of shit about mc's who rap about ice and shit like that, but rarely do they say any names?

Planet Asia - Because they might have a friend that do that shit (Laughs).

ThaFormula.com - So what guests do you have on the album, title of the album and when is it droppin?

Planet Asia - I got Ghostface on the album, and the album will be called "Life As It Is". I don't know when it's dropping anymore after you sparked that Timbaland thing.
