DAME GREASE FEATURED ON RAP REVIEWS.COM
Dame Grease Interview
Author: Adam Bernard
When Mase spit the line “any nigga make it hot get signed to Vacant Lot” on DMX’s “Niggaz Done Started Something” back in ‘98 it was a sign that Dame Grease, CEO of Vacant Lot Productions, had arrived. Born in The Bronx and raised in Harlem, Grease’s resume reads like a track listing to a “Hood’s Greatest Hits” collection. From songs like “Get At Me Dog” all the way up to “Feds Takin Pictures” he’s spent the past decade cementing his position as “your favorite producer’s favorite producer” and right now he’s putting the finishing touches on his own full length album “Goon Music,” which is due out May 27th on Babygrande Records. This week Grease sat down with us here at RapReviews and opened up about a number of topics, including his loves of techno and classical music, what it was like being in the studio with ODB, and what he thinks of all the artists that are upset over how the landscape of Hip-Hop is changing. As it turns out, there is a lot more to Dame Grease than just hood hits.
