This week we bring to you the rest of the interview (Pt 2 & 3) which took place in The Office’s of Atlanta Renown Publication “Creative Loafing”.

Remember “To succeed as a team…loyalty comes first”

After continuously postponing the release of this mixtape to eager but doubltful Jay Z fans, the highly anticipated offering has finally seen the light of day. It was initially titled “The mighty Neil Armstrong”. Roc Nation and Green Lantern’s Team Invasion, team up to release a slew of various recordings.

Most of the music was compiled during Jay-Z’s “The Diary of Jay-Z: Water for Life” conquest to aid African countries in the pursuit of clean water, while Hov promoted Kingdom Come some 6 years ago. Anybody familiar with Green Lantern’s previous work “Alive on Arrival” with the likes of, Jadakiss, Eminem, and much more, knows to expect the best out of the multi-talented DJ.

No one in the mixtape world does it like Green Lantern. He is also a very well accomplished Producer. Notorious for including all original beats and matching vocals of previously recorded material, Green Lantern takes mixtape creation more seriously than anyone else in the game.

This is a classic tale of endless wealth, life on the fast lane, hip-hop and betrayal based on actual characters well known in the hip-hop realm.

Mrs Shalhoup took a chance and exposed the true essence of the very elaborate structure of an empire built on a successful drug operation and a power structure never seen before.

Though not glorifying the gangster life nor condoning the nature of it, this book is intended to give a real account of a time and period that helped shape the great city of Atlanta and make it what it is today.

Vivid descriptions of various events, characters and victims that were tied in to the dealings of “Big Meech”, BMF as drug organization and an entertainment entity.

The decade long run of BMF is said to have resulted in an estimated 275 million dollars net profit according to the FBI.

Anybody halfway familiar with BMF or the myth surrounding them will enjoy this book.
