Buckshot Talks Biggie, 2PAC & Black Moon
He was Black Moon’s dancer before he ever picked up a mic. He got signed to Nervous Records off one freestyle in an empty room. And when his first royalty check came back saying he owed money, he walked out and built Duck Down Records to prove a point.
This week on rapfabulous® CONVOS, Mic Fox sits down with Buckshot, founder of Duck Down Music, member of Black Moon and the architect behind one of the most enduring independent labels in hip-hop. From dancing in House of Pain’s “Jump Around” video to the KRS-One lyric that became his label’s name, from getting flown out to Tupac’s house days before his death to the real story behind the East Coast/West Coast divide, this is the business and the brotherhood behind three decades of hip-hop.
