Mickey Factz on Hipster Rap

Stone: So what do you think about the haters and that “hipster-hop” label? Acts like SOUL Purpose are going at The Cool Kids and message board hate?
Mickey Factz: I love it. I love it. As long as nobody disrespects me on a record I love it. If I really have to show ‘em if I’m a hipster or not then I’ll let ‘em know. Listen, I grew up in the Bronx baby! Battelin’ is what we do for fun. That’s all we do is battle. We battle 8 people at a time, you know what I mean? So I’m waitin’ for the heat to keep coming. I love it. I revel it it. So if you want to talk about Mickey Factz in the chatrooms and the boards and on the blogs…I take that and put it into my music and I’m literally goin’ at whoever talks about me. It would be inadvertently goin’ at you but trust me, its goin’ there, and its goin’ at you. I’m just waiting for a rapper to do it so I can show him that this ether was started in the Bronx. Ether was created in the Bronx.
Stone: But do you consider yourself “hipster-hop?” Are you down with the Cool Kids and these new artists?
Mickey Factz: Nah. I don’t even thing they’re a part of that group. I’m definitely not a part of that group altogether. I grew up in the Bronx. The first time I ever seen a hipster was in 2007. It was early 2007 when I started going on shows with The Cool Kids. Before that I ain’t never seen a hipster. I’m not hipster rap. I’m not hipster-hop. Its just Global Music, ya know? Global music. Especially with the music that I’m going to be putting out. It’s so left people ain’t going to be expecting it. Its sad, you know what I’m sayin’? People are trying to classify me as something that I’m not trying to be classified as. I look at it as uber hip-hop or progressive hip-hop. Uber music…global music. That’s what it is. It’s stuff for the world…..it’s not just for the hipsters. Its stuff for the dudes on the Block. It’s for the girl that doesn’t have a parent trying to make it through school. I’m making original music.
Stone: Yeah, to tell you the truth, I think the music is just evolving…
Mickey Factz: Right.
