Novie Blendz: That’s interesting. I guess he assumed that he would be battling the same person. Nuff Said: I don’t know, but he got cooked both times! Novie Blendz: A lot of people continue to compare you to your brother Danja Zone. What is one major difference between you two? Nuff Said: First off, the comparison is unfair — for the simple fact that we have different styles. My brother is more intricate and I am more straightforward; that’s it, honestly. I think the only other person who understands my position in battle rap is Lance, Lotta Zay’s brother. Even though especially when we’re out and get recognized. Novie Blendz: At least the two of you don’t allow that to have you both at odds. Is that one of the key things that keeps MBK solid as a crew? Nuff Said: Yes. MBK is centered around the concept that no one is bigger than the squad. We’re family in and out of the ring. We all strive to represent and put on for a place that no one knew about a couple of years ago — and that’s PG County. Novie Blendz: You all are holding it down for yourselves and your city. If the fans or readers want to know more about MBK, they can go back and check out the “Who you agree or disagree? Why or why not? Nuff Said: Honestly I disagree, because I don’t know if folks get everything within the schemes; if they did, it would hit harder. I can’t please everyone. Some folks feel like I’m killing and punching folks’ lights out and some say the feel of it takes away from the punch. I guess it just depends on the listener.

(Nuff Said laughs) I just gave you three answers; you can pick one. “Fans need to know that I don’t do what my brother does.” — Nuff Said we are brothers, we are two different people. Fans need to know that I don’t do what my brother does. Novie Blendz: Exactly! It’s like you two are to battle rap what the Mannings are to the NFL. Both of you are in the same sport/business, but have completely different approaches and styles. Nuff Said: Exactly, and I feel that I am good as well, but fans need to view me in my own light. I have put in enough work to be respected and viewed as Nuff Said and not just “Danja’s brother”. Zone and I clown about it all the time, 46 You With?” section in issue five of 100 Bars Magazine. Nuff Said: Most definitely. We’re making moves. We are a very formidable team. We’re looking for a dope female to add to the squad. Novie Blendz: There are a lot of females out here doing their thing with battling and rapping. Nuff Said: Well send the applications in, ladies! Novie Blendz: It’s been said that one similarity between you and Danja is the scheme aspect in your material. It’s great, but it has a slow buildup to a punch line.
