Our friend Perajok recently caught up with G.O.O.D. Music and Chicago’s own Malik Yusef to talk about the leak of his vocals from “Sin City”, working with Jay and ‘Ye, his new solo and more. Check out what Malik had to say regarding the “Sin City” leak below.
Perajok: I know you guys are sleeping with the hard disks. How your vocals from “Sin City” was stolen? What we can expect from the official version?
Malik Yusef: I had a rough copy of Sin City in New York at a friend of mine’s studio, and left both CDs in the recording room. This was when we were recording in New York, and when we switched to Hawaii, someone went into the studio and took the CDs. It is not the verse from the album version though, we can expect more targeted lyrics, melodies from singers, and other featured artists on the album version.
Malik even spoke a bit about GLC, Really Doe and how G.O.O.D. Music has changed (or hasn’t). You can peep that after the jump.
Perajok: You’ve been around G.O.O.D. Music for a long time. How the atmosphere in the company has changed since some of the original members are left and a lot of new people was signed?
Malik Yusef: I think it is pretty much the same, Kanye and I still argue and fight and try to tear each other’s skin off in an effort of making good songs.
Perajok: Do you think Cyhi, D’banj or Teyana Taylor are better artists than GLC, Consequence & Tony Williams?
Malik Yusef: I think they are all very different and unique artists. I think Tony has one of the best voices in music history, I know GLC on personal levels. I love what GLC and Really Doe have done, and I love what Teyana and CyHi are doing.
